Does not matter to me. After i first played with a leopard and i frontally did not die from a 30mm, It made me so happy. I just want the turret ring be able to stop autocannons and be realistic that’s it. Beside the turret ring that giant lower front plate would still be a weak spot anyways. Also gaijin pls move the hydraulic pump to the right place
You can read this bug report about it for better understanding

sorry I confused that a bit, that was an argument for why it should be buffed as it wouldn’t affect it’s balance vs other MBTs, and autocannons are over preforming to a horrific degree and MBTs are far to vulnerable too them, for a variety of reasons.
I mean, if you get shot at in top-tier you’re usually dead anyways, regardless of what nation you’re playing.
At least with the M1 I get the opportunity to fall back at a decent rate Cough T-90M Cough.
T-series? Hopefully you mean the Type 10, because the T-80BVM is incredibly mid, the T-90M is downright bad and the T-72B3A is among the worst top-tier vehicles period.
Regardless, the issue with US top-tier is and always has been it’s playerbase, even with the IPM1 now being so grossly undertiered it’s stats still aren’t anything special.
I don’t expect the M1A2T’s stats to fall in line with the US counterparts over time, especially if the M1A1 Click-Bait goes on sale at any point again which tends to absolutely destroy US winrates.
With that picture in mind, I’m scared to even talk about how cracked Tiger II actually is when it’s performing this good, even in German mains’ hands.
huh?
Abrams was never shit in the first place. I can do pretty well with it some games and complete dogshit in others, but that applies for every player. I have positive k/d in the sep and clickbait, and that’s it lol. Still, my point still stands. 5 second reload and insane mobility go brrrrr
I don’t want it in other tech trees because Copy Paste sucks.
But yeah, the problem with the US most of the time is the players. This is the case in Air RB too. I will do extremely well and then get gimped because I have no team. Or, I will get 1v5d because my team sucked and I have no team.
In ground RB, it generally comes around as a lack of support in a coordinated push, unreasonably dumb pushes, and a lack of “team empathy”- i.e. helping repair when possible and covering flanks, stuff like that.
Edit: my stats in it aren’t great, I am aware. But I still manage to pull above a 1:1 KD. It’s really not a bad tank especially when you squad up or find decent teammates to play with.
I think I have some advice that will help:
Think of where the enemy will go on the map. Use the knowledge of all your previous matches on enemy player positioning, and think where this enemy will go.
Always be prepared for the route you choose to have enemies.
Always be aware of sight lines.
Remember the survivability onion: Don’t be seen, if seen don’t be shot at, if shot at don’t be hit, if hit don’t be penned, if penned don’t die.
Use sound to identify tanks on smaller maps.
M1A2T isn’t copy-paste.
How does it vary in any meaningful way from the Abrams series. If it is none, then it is by definition copy paste.
I wish gaijin understand the same thing when it comes to T80s and T90s because realistically they are the worst designed tanks ever. We’ve watched for 3 years as they get hit with a drone with a RPG head and the ammo instantly detonates 99% of the time wheres that in Warthunder? Lol Gaijin copes sooo hard for Shitty Russian equipment.
It’s already in the game ?
0 Surprise. It was always the second best MBT in-game. Only the US mains complained about it being bad
Probably the meta chasers/multi nation players more than it is the Chinese players being much better.
None of these things matter for these stats since these stats are only for last month specifically.
If anything the M1A2T should have lower stats this month than the US M1A2s due to more people needing to stock grind it, although the M1A2T does have one of the easiest stock grinds at top tier.
2A7s and Strv 122s still beat it, but it was always only behind those tanks in the rankings.
New hull and turret.
The M1A2T is not in any other tech tree.
I’d recommend playing right now, I’ve played 19 games in my HSTV-L today and gotten a 74% winrate, largely by facing Russia with their hordes of premium andys in T-80U-E1’s.
Seriously, I’ve had this HSTV-L unlocked for years and never really played it for whatever reason, decided to give it a try and stock grind it today and it’s been fantastic.
Hyperbole much?
Also, Dated =/= Bad.
Those Soviet designs (referring to the T-80, T-64 and T-72 here) were among (if not the very best) the best designs at their time of introduction. And if destruction via mines and drones are your criteria for what makes a tank poor, then you’d have to apply the same judgment to the Challenger 2, Leopard 2 and M1A1 which have fallen victim to the very same weaponry.
People really sleep on the HSTVL I personally think its better than the Abrams. If only they gave it its proper round it would legit be the best tank in the game IMO.
How so? Are the Armor values different? Are the major shapes and designs different? Does it have a different gun? Different power train?
“New hull and new turret” is incredibly vague. I’d like explicit and undeniably concrete AND direct proof. I’m not afraid to say I’m wrong. I just want to know before I do so. And saying “New Hull and New Turret” does not do that.
