Yeah, exact same feeling, Britain’s 10.X area is absolute peak of our tree. We finally get the vehicles we’ve been after for years… and Gaijin ruins it by rendering the ENTIRE BR bracket, soviet only

Bonus points to Gaijin for their imagination. Where NATO vehicles are underperforming and nerfed because “marketing lies” and “balancing”. While for Russian vehicles internal belts become external, guns with absurd gun dispersion and shake become super stable (Terminator), they get magic wet ammo carousels, fuel tanks less likely to explode because “they use Russian diesel!” and other things.
NGL, this update really knocked things out the park.

Please stick with the topic, Fleur.
There are LAVs in-game currently.
What’s with this false equivalence though?
BMPT should be moved up. Ajax would look better if 2S38 wasn’t the same BR as it.
Edit:
Indeed it is. Despite them being two different platforms, I do believe BMPT to be superior to AJAX.
It’s sad that they’re the same BR.

40mm or 30mm wont make a difference as I stated before. What will make a difference is optics and having spikes for longer engagments
Well if you took a deeper look you would see i mainly used spikes to kill heli’s instead of tanks while been stock. But glancing at someones stats and making a judgement based on only 2 factors is somewhat a silly thing to do.
Like I could make the assumption your opinions on UK tech tree tanks is irrelevent since you only grind with prem tanks in the UK tree, but alas I gave your opinion as much weight as everyone else.
Read my initial post, that was my argument, people here started turning it into a convo about spike missles been rubbish which I simply don’t care about
That thing has like 8x gunner zoom at 10.3 lol
check the fuel tanks in the garage, there inside the tank and listed as external fuel tanks, so its even worse then what you just pointed out.
It absolutely does though. No matter how much you try to downplay it, there is a massive difference.
Debatable, usually if I launch a side aspect spike counterpart in my Jaguar I have already finished said target with the 40mm before the spike even arrives lol.
The thing is, since you get spikes completely stock, so by your own logic you should actually have even more kills per battle, since according to your logic you start with the most potent weapon from the get go.
Since I also perform better than you in most of the TT vehicles in other trees, that I also did the stock grind for, I doubt the premium vehicle argument holds much weight.

Dead serious.
Been frontally hammering T72s to death since th update. BMP2 and bmp3 cant do enough to you before they are turned to dust as well.
It’s only critique I have beyond the obvious “too fat to flank, too lightly armoured to survive an MBT” is that it’s been put at the same BR as BMPT-72 and BMPT-90, this is not fault of Ajax but the reality that terminators have been put a whole BR too damn low for what their protection mobility and volume of firepower offers.
The matchmaker has been broken apart by everyone playing the BMPT to abuse how busted OP it is and everything else is suffering due to it.
There’s modelling issues of course. This is the newest light tank to enter service in the world at the moment so accurate information is as scarce as on fake stuff like a KH38-MT/MTE but this hasn’t really made it suffer as it still holds up incredibly well

Ajax has notably less pen than 2S38.
And at least a bit less pen than Strf 9040C.
Oh right, I forgot I want 2S38 moved to 10.7.
Okay yeah, Ajax is probably fine at 10.3.
Flat maps that favour RU players, nothing else needs be said
Holds litterally no water since I’m used to playing UK other tree’s are taking time to learn to play well, and i don’t really enjoy most other tanks in game
A lot of the skills you need to do well in this game are pretty universal between trees though, but that is a whole different discussion.

I dunno man. I was sceptical as well at first but I’m really enjoying the Ajax.
I think it’s just what Britain needed in the br bracket. It’s a very solid upgrade to the badger (but to be fair, a rotten log is an upgrade to the badger) with its decent mobility, its pretty powerful gun etc.
Won a 2 vs 1 against an Abrams and a bmpt yesterday, fix the sights, move the bmpt up and I’m super happy with it.

Universal skills??? You mean my main tech tree been so underperforming its laughable? its only been recently that Challenger 2’s could even keep up with team mates, and pretty hard to do well when fighting RU teams 90% of the time. Low Tier is just Yaks farming you and solid shot/Sabot doing no damage even to ammo. Mid Tier’s its getting blown up by CAS, Top Tier its basically dying to shots through your mentlet or spending 75% of your game playing tank mechanic simulator. or dying to Heli’s and before that dying to KH38MT spam and the occational Hammer.
No amount of map knowlege can save you from badly implimented and broken tanks / CAS

Im looking forward to unlocking it, about 2/3 done. But im dreading the stock grind, especially with how unbalanced the BR is at the moment. Tempted to not use it at 10.3 and instead use it at 11.7

We definatly needed something agree’d. How ever I still think the CRV will do everything better then Ajax.
Truthfully I’ve not touched the badger and have rarely taken out any of the SA tech tree.
Stock grind isn’t so bad if you can avoid BMPT’s, You start with your best round so your first battle your at full stength as far as firepower is concerned. Just avoid BMPT’s, every other light tank is food for Ajax and some MBT’s can give you issues when they refuse to die when hitting ammo “cough” “looking at you RU tanks” “cough”

Oh nice, so shouldnt be quite as bad as I was expecting (remembering DW stock grind, shudders)

I could sugest you try and unlock the ammo for killing jets and heli’s as soon as you can. I don’t know how many times carrying just 40 of them has saved me and my team from first spawn rushes and late game jets.
My main way of playing the tank isn’t getting onto flanks or going solo but sticking to 1-2 MBT’s, shutting down light tanks that attack them, keeping CAS off them and also been able to watch there flank and spot for them. Most matches I get 5+ assists and some kills if they leave any for me.
