Performance
For me, my tactics are if I want to get spotted, I will have a highly armoured tankm(like IS-6, JagdTiger 8.8, IS-3 Defender or T34), so the FCM 50 t sort of blew up my playstyle. Without camouflage value, the tank will get spotted very easily, and without armour, FCM will not survive long. Performance really depends on the map, paths to take to flank the enemy (and even that may not work as the enemy could have tanks travelling that way, or have tanks posted there. Without high points with cover, the FCM 50 t is forced to a support role, allowing heavier armoured allies to pop out first before the FCM sticks out as the enemy would usually ire at the tank that first appears. Be wary of snipers supporting the enemy from a hidden area, though
