I’ve never had APS intercept a single dart.

damn maybe its already patched out. no need to grind further then, my gb tree is finished
its not patched out, had it just yesterday when the APS denied my DM53
Praise the looooord, i’m back in :-)
Oh, yeah, sometimes I forget about Ariete’s existence, hahah.
That being said, the 80mm of air changing to 80mm of composite wouldn’t really change anything at all.
Ariete’s only hope is its turret; as far as I know, it should be around 470mm KE and 590mm KE with WAR kit, which would make it strong enough to withstand 3BM42 and 3BM60 respectively. Additionally, all of the Arietes should get WAR as an available modification.
To continue your emotional roller coaster, I second what @Morvran said. I’ve never once witnessed the APS save my BN from a dart lol.
It was shortly after playing BN that I outright abandoned the British TT. Chally 2’s are just utter misery in WT. Worse than everything else in just about every meaningful way.
Stopping at 10.3 is probably the smart move. Above that is only pain.
I think… the dart has to be traveling fairly slowly. So it only has a chance of damaging the dart when the dart is fired at long range. I think
i don’t wanna derail the thread any further, but its in his 5 days old tornado vid right at the beginning (not sure if youtube links here are allowed or possible). it was long range and he was something between hull down and tank down position so maybe that played a role that it was aimed at his turret front. still weird af.
I think it’s the reaction time which is the issue. Has to be fired from far enough away that so that the dart takes longer to impact than that timer. (Not ingame so can’t check what it is, but should be simple enough to math what that minimum distance is for each dart based on m/s)
Just WT’s map pool is like 80%+ CQB slug fests, so you’re hardly ever at the kind of distances for it to actually be useful lol.
Even when it does ‘intercept’, it seems like it doesn’t actually stop it so much as just weaken it, but with Chally’s butter armour it still finds a way through anyway.
(But yes, sorry OP for slightly derailing, I fully agree with the take btw)

the BN only intercepts at longer ranges
The addition of composite could help with the random autocannon dart going through.
If they have no problem removing and decreasing specs (engine power, optics magnification, steel thickness etc.) then they should also ameliorate those characteristics that have been proven to be there.
Regarding WAR, yes indeed it should be greatly improved. I am just not sure that the base PSO can mount it, with the AMV/C2 Ariete they modified the side modules of the PSO turret armour so that WAR could fit when both kit are installed.
Uses a different gun and ammo layout, Technically a rear bustle and single piece ammo should be faster than the CR2s three piece ammunition just from ergonomics.
Top tier MBTs are a mess, they always will be with how patchy legitimate information is but it shouldn’t be this poor.
Welcome to slop thunder. No we wont actually fix anything or fundamentally change the game. We will instead add one identical tonk to 7 trees so you can enjoy it seven times as much. Decompression? Dont be silly, muh queue times might be 3 seconds longer. Just play the newest power creep til next update. Btw we will be adding the premium F-35 for 100 dollars soon, don’t miss out!
I love how they took the camo net suggestion and continue to milk the daylights out of it instead of having modern proper uses.
No one even mentioned the 99A and VT4… The VT4’s armor is much less thick, and the 99A’s armor was weakened by about 200ke in the previous version. These are all mistakes that have been confirmed for a long time, but Gaijin has not reacted to them so far.

Never had it, or never noticed when it did? I’m pretty sure it does, kirshenbaum on YouTube had a video in it on carpathians. It intercepted like 3 or 4 in a row. Pretty sure he said it’s still an and tank, but that aspect is great.
Still waiting on the laundry list of issues with the ztz’s to be fixed.
So is there anyone could post ALL bug reports for ALL 11.7+ MBT to avoid anyone got mad cause you mentioned Abrams or CR2/3 so they think you ignore their problems…
That would be a really great list, show how much unrealistic the realistic game have, some of them haven’t fixed for years or even be made for balance…
That was my initial goal, but I figured I would never finish hahahah.
However, I WILL FOKIN DO IT.
I WILL!
Later, when I wake up. And I have some caffeine under my custody xD.
