I just got rekt by a BMPT-72 TWICE by the same guy in my Type 90… granted I could’ve played better, but the thing that infuriates me is that his profile only shows premium vehicles…
I mean shill for Gaijin is a real career on this forum
You’d know one from their first 3 sentences.
We are slowly developing stockholm syndrome with bmpt
Its already isnt, and was moved much faster than any T58-ish history in this game, and even said Puma.
I have a little game I like to play: comparing K/D ratios on other vehicles to the BMPT. I used to do the same with the 2S38, but the BMPT is way worse. Players with negative K/Ds on their top 10 most-played tanks are getting 2+ with the BMPT.
This vehicle is a joke. It’s ruined its own bracket and even affected top tier. I just want it moved to 12.7 so I can go back to playing 10.3.
I’ve been on and off this game since 2013, and now, as an adult, I don’t have the same eagerness to play as I used to. The BMPT is making it really hard for me to even want to launch the game.
Current March 2026 statistics as of today on Statshark (Ranks 7-9)
Russia holds a 50% or higher W/R from 9.7 to 12.7
The BMPT is sitting at a 60.1% W/R and the BMPT-72 is sitting at 59.5%
Both are ranked #2 and #3 (#1 and #2 if you discount the Gift T-80)

Peer vehicles sit well below the BMPTs in terms of W/R. Measuring from 10.7-11.7, the vehicles are as follows: (Measuring MBTs only)

Chiming in with some addtional stats for ground:
russia also plays 47% of all games at 10.3
48% at 10.7
49% at 11.0
80% (lol) at 11.3
20% at 11.7
35% at 12.0
13% at 12.3
35% at 12.7 (more than the US and Germany combined)
Or in total
40% of all games played from 10.3-12.7.
So yeah seems like in high tier the game is in a truly great state rn
Music to my ears, hopefully after they go on sale it becomes 100% so gaijin finally fixes/removes it
Theyll introduce Air RB matchmaking to ground RB before they remove/fix their cashcow
Lets be honest, no, russian mains are not the best in game, they just have the best and most modern things in game at the moment and they are abusing with that, i just saw a dude in a match with trash stats but guess what, 92% winrate with the bmpt and 90% with the bmpt72, the other tanks? 20-30% lol, i told him about her stats and he said yeh, skill issue xD i would love to see russian mains if gaijin ad the A4 ammo for the abrams,or if they get the real 30mm poor accuracy,it would be funny to see that ngl
Caught again projecting XD .
You made a good word salad of misconceptions … i will give you that.
The irony of you calling anyone “extremely dumb” while failing to grasp that a massive dataset of uncurated noise is objectively worse than a verified sample is hilarious.
StatShark wide capture doesn’t filter out scripters, it’s the other way around , it actually dilutes the data with them, whereas ThunderSkill’s requirement for active, tracked players acts as a natural filter for the very “niche happenings” you’re worried about.
Second, balancing a competitive game around the “average population” (which includes people who barely know the controls) is a speedrun to a broken meta.
You keep quoting that 0.01% figure like it’s a “gotcha” when it actually is the perfect illustration you’ve never opened a statistics textbook in your life XD.
You aren’t arguing for better data, your ‘‘understanding’’ of the subject boils down to : ‘’ bigger number has to be better ‘’ … ain’t no need to call you ignorant, you literally do the job yourself, quite well at that XD.
Its not uncurated noise, its the entire playerbase. Thunderskill is uncurated, because you have 0 information about the composition of the data youre looking at. Bigger sample sizes are better, because they precisely average out niche happening and stuff like that by reducing their impact on the overall result. Thunderskill is like your US population example but instead of collecting data from a data set that matches the overall population they just survey from one homogeneous group. Also in that example a small sample size can deliver a statistically relevant result but surveying the entire population of the US would still deliver a better one. Thats why the bigger number is better not just because its bigger.
So is balancing around an unknown population.
I explained to you that its not just bigger number is better but i guess you genuinely do not understand that so lets just leave it at that
russian thunder is back impossible to do a game without that noob tank in 10.3 to to p tier remove the ammo crate and like every tank when ammo are on fire you have no ammo and the bozo noob tank will be more regular
i dont think volumetric favors any other vehicle more than the bmpt. they just put 3d shit all over the hull so that your dart loses effectiveness. the amount of side shots that didnt go thru while i was playing the 2a4 is insane.
does the turret even have collision when being fired at?
i allways thought because of overpen there was no spalling, but after firing at it with the adats and the missile just passed through im starting to understand why nothing disables the guns.
I challenge any WT dev, manager, etc, to play 10.7-11.3 with any nation that matches against Russia on a regular basis. They clearly do not play the game at that BR and do not understand why people complain about the BMPTs.
Just shot 2 spices 250 one at a T-80BVM and the other at a BMPT-72. Guess which one didn’t even get a critical hit.
Im done with anything above 9.7. Fuck this vehicle
Gaijin has ruined 10.3 and up with the BMPT
Either you get smashed by Russia or you win too easily as russia
Either way it is boring and it sucks
