And yet here it sits still one of, if not the best, top tier mbt.
The turret ring nerf i was against as well.
Much like MSC when it released it was nerfed a few times right away.
Still a great mbt though, you say it as if they weren’t stomping when added.
Because it was again dominating the bracket.
The BMPT has also had its BR increased , twice ? Or just the once and several changes to the ammo.
Still not enough but acting like they’ve done nothing is disingenuous.
So where T32s. Tiger 2s etc.
Hell it bounced off the UFP of amx30s they destroyed the round.
The puma when it was added was ridiculous as well to be fair.
Survived so many hits and would annihilate anything it came across.
8.3 as an addition was beyond ridiculous.
They have been hit with BR.increases and attempts at the model.
They didn’t forget they just wanted people to buy/ convert for it to earn from.it.
Same as A10 and SU25 releasing at what 9.3?
Bmpt its one month and has had a couple nerfs, which aren’t enough but they’ve been nerfing it.
I also bring up their past mockups to prove the point that it’s not just russian bias they fk up all the time.
Yeah they nerfed its survivability regarding hits to the ascending part of the ammo inside the vehicle but at the same time separated the 2 belts in the turret so its now impossible to cook off all turret ammo with one shot. Aka a buff and a nerf at the same time.
Its ridiculous enough that the BMPT got released with the damage model as it was then but reworking it and still deliberately adding in unrealistic stuff to artificially buff it is blatant favoritism
It right now, and you know I am one to argue points of the russian MBTs being mediocre or middling.
But the BMPT right now should be flat out removed and reworked completely.
I am sorry but it’s suhc a shambles of an addition, one of the worst I have seen in my time if not the worst.
Russian MBTs really aren’t mediocre or middling. Everyone says they have terrible maneuverability, but then only talks about the reverse being pretty bad. But they have insane maneuverability/handling: they accelerate to their top speed quickly, which, while not the highest in-game, still means they reach certain points on maps faster than most. They also don’t nuke their speed turning like Type 10s or Challengers.
Of course its going to be a terrible addition to play against and balance if Gaijin just flat out masks every weakness the design has with artificial bs.
Memeworthy wobbly autocannons? No comrade laser accuracy on a 550 rpm gun sounds way better
Stupid ammo layout that almost completely negates the advantages of an unmanned turret? Nope magically separated belt with russian quantum tunneling technology
I agree with what you’re saying.
Of course reverse speed is only one metric towards mobility but it is an important one.
Not getting shot in the first place is always better than relying on armour, so having a good reverse speed is really key.
Same with gun depression and reload rate.
The T-90M especially suffers from these drawbacks.
Don’t get me wrong, the T-90Ms and especially not the T-80BVMs aren’t bad, but they’re definitely not great. @An_Pigeon said it well – they are just mid.
yeah but ur kinda comparing apples and oranges, if u wanna compare to something that got added and was broken in the live server would be T80U inmortal lfp and breach that got fixed like 3 patches later, or was it the T80BVM? at least the 2A5 came fixed in live server with more normal armor, or the jagdtiger’s side armor, that was wild
