Any other tank would have its barrel or breech damaged or even completely destroyed, but not the bmpt.
Whenever a game-breaking mechanic, vehicle damage model or bug is added, it’s fixed very quickly, within a month at most. But if it’s related to rus vehicles, it takes longer for some reason.
Players can laugh at me all they want, but I notice these tendencies a lot in the higher tiers. No wonder people think there is a russian bias in this game.
Tbh the battle rating borderline doesnt matter anymore with that thing. Its super good for 10.3 vehicles that they get spared from it now but the BMPTs damage model is complete and utter bs no matter if youre shooting it with a 10.7 DM23 or a 12.7 DM 53.
All of these discussions about what battle rating is appropiate could have been completely avoided if Gaijin was honest and fair and just fixed the absolute bs going on with the damage model from the beginning instead of making it worse.
I mean, were discussing whether a vehicle with 30mm APDS and LOS ATGMs should be in 12.0+, thats not normal.
Sorry no, m900 would skyrocket its BR lol its a 500+ pen round.
The addition of m883 would help it a lot, though the M774 maye be long in tbe tooth but it’s certainly functional.
Again the tanks are good, the players aren’t as such, I’ve got almost all their ground tree finished.
The 9.3s are solid, the 10.0 leopard 2k is amazing. Good spaa, strong and numerous lights wtc
They also updated it very shortly after release to stop the ammo belt cooking off killing the crew, which was, welll absolutely disgusting behaviour on their part.
And yeah, they can move the up all they like but it wont change the fact that it’s fundamentally broken.
Era which defies physics
An autocannon which is inaccurate as shit (same gun which managed to shoot the helicopter it was mounted on by the way), and yet it’s a goddam laser in this game.
An artificial hand-held gift from gaijin where the ammo belt cooking off doesn’t kill the crew, despite the belt running from the breech to under the crews seats. Utterly ridiculous.
Quite frankly a damage model that gaijn should be ashamed of.
The era should give very little kinetic protection at 0 degrees, which should rise as the angle increases. Gaijin just gave it a flat kinetic protection modifier. Yes the calculations are complex but it can be abstracted to a simple lookup table that gives ke protection values for a given angle, but sadly gaijin did the gaijin thing and just couldn’t be bothered so it didn’t happen.
Re the autocannons, no harm in posting this again
It’s amusing how people can claim there’s no Russian bias with crap like this, and gaijin do themselves no favours.
Same gun that has such tremendous issues that it managed to hit the helicopter it was mounted it to by the way. That video is one gun firing by the way, it’s that terrible a design and implementation.
Move the BMPT to 16.0 so it can only play against itself. I am quitting top tier tanks until the BMPT is either gone or nerfed so much that it cant do anything anymore. The BMPT just chased me from his spawn all the way into my own where he murdered every single tank on my team that was there too.
