I’m now noticing half the team ‘J’ ing out at 10.7 when they see they are up against Russia. With these and the ‘possible’ buffs to lower front plates of T series tanks… Nice way to break a game. So, Russia V Russia for 10.7 up? :)

The more I read about this shtshow the more I’m glad that I decided to stick with grinding new top tier jets.
Was planning to grind new Chinese Sam system and finish couple other tanks but looks like I’m gonna stay away from ground for a while.

Okay, I want to watch a replay of you fighting on the top tanks against Soviet MBTs.

Not everyone here is an esports player. And it’s not about skill. It turns out that if I play well and get frags, but my team plays average and can’t accurately target the weak spots of the Soviet MBTs, we lose. Because to play against the top Soviet tanks, you need skill.

Yeah and this is where the issue is imo. I can win like 3 seperate 1v1s or 1v2s vs russian tanks just fine, but at the same time you have the 4 horsemen of skill issue (aka 4 random teammates) a couple hundred meters from my location fighting and losing a 1v4 vs a random T-90.
We are playing a team game where you can’t even trust your team to be able to actually play the game.
And the Soviets might be bad players, too. It’s just easier for them to target the Abrams’ weak points—or rather, they don’t even need to aim, and their armor is more forgiving.

Oh they absolutely are.
NATO mains are bad and often are overly scared while Russian mains are bad and have the tendency to be way to overconfident.

Oh yeah. I’m currently playing as Israel on 10.0, and my main tactics are flanking and hiding. Because I don’t want to meet a Soviet tank head-on.

BMPTs can just bum rush the Jaguar/Puma and they literally can’t do anything lol, and there are people saying this thing needs buffs or that it’s okay as is at its BR. I wish Gaijin would fix Puma(s) and actually make BMPT external belts explode…

video shows Bmpt simply holding W and rushing straight into our base without any hesitation there is no positioning no tactical play just a full push while tanking multiple hits and wiping the team this kind of play should be very hard to play but they just holding W and spamming 2x 30mm and 4 tandem missile

the only way to play the merkavas is to nuke overconfident so(y)viets by utilising your incredible hulldown ability
The funniest way to beat the Russian MBTs is to counter rush them and contest aggressive positions, but you need to be either good, brave or stupid enough (I know I at least got the supid part down) and you need a mobile MBT.
The funny thing is because a lot of Russian players just don’t expect it, but that might be a bit too far off topic.

Tired 10.7 again, Jesus Christ.
I’ve not seen such a dereliction of responsibility in game management and design in over 15 years. I don’t know what the game managers are doing, but they need to stop it and move this goddam thing up to 11.7 at least.

I said I wouldn’t come back, but oddly enough, they don’t want the BMPT’s ammunition to detonate the vehicle (even though this rarely happens in battle). They want APFSDS ammunition for it, but without increasing the BR, keeping it at 10.7. On top of that, it seems that they want the vehicle to be considered normal for withstanding 2 to 3 TADEN missiles without penetrating its armor in the same place.
Get ready, the situation will get even worse if the Russian developers accept these conditions for the vehicle and implement them definitively. (Because until then, it seems like a stroke of luck.)
15.0 at least xD
Brits main. Love u.
Expect the UNEXPECTED.
I use that tactic when I’m playing with Leclerc,Type-10 or VT-4’s.
They get shocked and can’t react most of the time Xd.

One strength of the Ajax is the hull is immune to Russian 30mm apds.
But yeah Gaijin have taken every measure possible to make a meme tank good. It’s a tank support vehicle not a tank

Not all of the hull, the air intakes are way to easy to hit and pen and usually allow the round straight into the crew compartment. But Ajax is so tall and they aim for the gun and just delete you regardless.
Yes the gun and turret are weak
