It’s an issue on several vehicles but I am not quite sure if its a damage-model issue or just visual, as the first spall-cone is created before the rod strikes the plate, at which point a second one is created.
On e.g. Leopard 2’s its’ the trunnions having secondaryshatter enabled (no other trunnions do so btw), which seems to create spall even without ever being fully penetrated and then again if penetrated.
believe me, it could be worse (i could just be screaming “KILL THAT THING, THAT THING, VAPORISE IT” when the “thing” in question is a recon drone) but still.
run away, run away and hide!
do wish that maps were bigger for the specific purpose of SPAA not getting vaporised by tanks because there’s nowhere advantageous for them to spawn.
when the EBR came, there were counters (it had no armour)
when the PUMA came along, I seem to distinctly remember a very swift Gaijin response. Namely being moved up in BR very quickly (matter of days) - it happened with the Harrier GR.1 too. practically within the same week it was 10.0. So Gaijin can move very fast if it pleases them.
When the BMP-T came along, the counter is not to play a specific BR. It still is. Unlike every other arguably powerful vehicle in ground (standfast 2S38), the BMP-T has been uptiered once, and that is clearly not enough, as teams are still getting overrun within the first 5 minutes of the match consistently, and entire teams are ODLing, or people are just not playing that BR. I’ve seen complaints from purported Russian players without the BMP-T that the BR is unviable because they simply don’t get kills, since the BMP-Ts nab them all with the mobility it has and the weapons available to it. That is not a viable situation for this game.
If this were a normal vehicle that would be a candidate for overpressure.
It’s the USERS of these vehicles who are saying that it’s easy to kill… It’s BALANCED, it’s EVEN, it’s TOTALLY HORRIBLE TO PLAY WITH.
But there it is, an 80% win rate.
BMPT is spaded!
Stats at the exact time my BMPT was fully Spaded: (Ground ARCADE)
Winrate: 60%
Without air kills:
K/S = 2.53
K/D = 3.23
With air kills:
K/S = 2.78
K/D = 3.55
Statistics before ERA Upgrade:
Without air kills:
K/S = 1.81
K/D = 2.42
With air kills:
K/S = 2.13
K/D = 2.83
As you can see, the ERA package on the TT BMPT makes a massive difference. Which we all already knew.
sssshhhhhh…!
they are busy grinding out the rest of their Russian Techtree…
Well at least there’s more t90s I can one shot now.
hmm, so you took the value for the no ERA, but than you surely set the (stats) to 0 to make it a fair test :)))
You guys think I’m gonna get to the BMPT before it gets nerfed?
Buy the BMPT-72
lol
WELL, I didn’t do a subtraction lol. I could do that, the increase in K/S + K/D would probably be over a 2x increase then 😂
So, the way I did it, just taking total stats for the spaded numbers, is STILL a dramatic increase. The “worst” way to do the math still shows an absurd increase in effectiveness.
Ok did the math using only the stats between ERA mod and Spading:
Without air kills:
K/S = 3.02
K/D = 3.74
With air kills:
K/S = 3.23
K/D = 4.00
its 70€ above my budget
i have high hopes for this match
If that’s the case, I want it too. I’m even willing to switch sides and defend the BMPT with all my might. LOL
no way you went through the effort of setting it up
Can Gaijin not just put all bmpt players in their own instance? Let the rest of us try to enjoy 9.7 to 11.7 again?
I’m really sick of having to sit through bad Russian military propaganda with this thing. The russian tanks already over perform in this game compared to their real life counterparts, don’t need a Russian wank fest every time I want to play that BR range.
And why TF is this a tank destroyer in-game while it is a infantry support vehicle in real life? It’s built for urban combat, not to engage tanks.
this is the same company that claims decompression cannot be done because it would increase wait times (which usually are only seconds long…)
i made the mistake of ignoring it after getting it. Now i have to do 12.0 and without suitable cover its just meh
