Giving tanks mediocre APFSDS at Rank 8 for a starter and then making the good APFSDS take 50 matches to reach is so dumb… why don’t we put it in the rank 1 or rank 2 modifications so it isn’t a struggle to have an effective tank.

I’ll add to, why do tanks at 11.7 but in rank VII only get stock HEATFS?
All essential equipment should be stock. Parts, FPE, all rounds, scout drones, thermals, laser rangefinders, etc, should be stock.
The same goes for aircraft, all ordinance, the g-suit, and belts should be stock.

Personally i dont really mind the stock apfsds we currently get, its a lot better then using HEATFS in any metric.
It really just makes you have to memorize key weakspots.

So just remove modifications?
No, you’d still have modifications that upgrade engines and other parts, just not essential stuff that puts you at a large disadvantage.
Honestly not the worst idea but I feel something like dynamic BR would be better
sounds fun until you realize you could face a T-90M at 10.3 if that happened.
T-90M probably not, T-72B3 definitely.
I feel like BRs would have to be decompressed a bit before dynamic would work so if that does happen hopefully we wont have Leo2A4s fighting T-90Ms
At the very least, make parts stock.
If nothing else.
Recently unlocked charioteer and the centurion and it feels absolutely amazing to get transmission or cannon shot out. Makes me really look forward to trying to scrape enough RP together. At rank 3 it was kind of bearable. At rank 4 it feels like it will take forever.

I love queueing with the M1A1 AIM only to get my barrel, breach, engine, and 2 crew members shot out within 30 seconds and having to spend 3 minutes repairing it
Yeah, but not to the point where the vehicle becomes basically unusable. HEATFS at 11.0 and upwards is downright criminal. No matter how good you are its 90% RNG whether you actually end up getting kills or not.
I feel like players would abuse the dynamic BR system trying to minmax tanks, I think it could definitely work though.
I think it’s especially important where we start to see granular improvements on tank platforms like the T-72 series and their subsequent models, or the Israeli M48s. To me it’s plain to see a Base models T-72A spaded at 9.3 and compare ammo and armour and power to weight of a T-72B at 10.3 and it’s fairly obvious that a stock 10.3 tank is a spaded 9.3 tank or worse.
What about an alternative system for more modern tanks where different packages and loadouts function similar to the dynamic ordnance system for planes and depending on how much crap you put on your tank:
-Ammo types
-FCS
-Powerplant
-Addon armour and smoke etc
To adjust your spawn cost? I’m thinking about running an M48A1 patton with the APHE, powerplant and rangefinder for lets say 105SP instead of 150SP
To fix this I play assault ground arcade, its basically free research point for little loss
if u get ~50 kills(which is very easy actually) and win(which also easy) you can get parts and grind until you have apfsds
