7 shots to the side of a BMPT yesterday. I actually ran out of ammo, someone else killed it. Ammo hit and destroyed but didnt explode. ERA absorbed the round, ERA disappeared so fired same spot and some kind of internal armour stopped an entire sabot flat faced multiple times. The sabot just deletes and isnt seen. Obviously tried different spots and everything. Firing at no angle aswell.
Sorry if it sounds harsh, but shooting a BMPT 7 times without killing it clearly indicates a player issue just as much as the BMPT being trolly to kill.
Especially if this is while using a main calibre gun (105+).
no it is not player issue, internal modules eat schrapnels and dont creat any spall, thats the problem, 1st hit get eaten by ERA, second, by track, 3rd by spall liner, fuel, basket, etc… it just dont spall… just like i said before “nerf” that disabling its power doesnt disable FCS, which some one argued is lie, but again he was just uninformed. they made it broken on purpose to milk money and turn this game in to russian state propaganda…
I have shot BMPTs in the front/side with many different rounds and they have usually died in 1-4 rounds, maybe 5 shots in some rare cases if I get unlucky.
that’s the problem, i have killed BMPT with ajax from almost no angle through sprocket wheel by single shot through all era and spall liner and second time he stood FLAT side and ate 10 shells withot any damage because dispersion from continuous fire made darts fly all over his side hitting different era tiles and internal modules without doing any damage to crew or anything critical… that’s just reality… I had game where i fired 38 shots from 1500 meters with ajax to his perfectly FLAT side and i didn’t even killed single crew, he managed to one shot me on 1500 with APDS which should not even pen Ajax at that range anywhere from front…Whole problem of BMPT is how inconsistent his damage model is and how is spalling of internal modules coded for that specific tanks. They do this to every russian new tank, specially those premiums or event
I agree with you regarding the BMPT armor and survivability being trolly and stupid against IFVs. However it’s very likely that CHARM 3 was using the Chally 2s.
Now I’ll fully agree with the BMPT being trolly in general, but if someone shot a BMPT in the side 7 times with L27 and it’s still alive there is certainly also an element of player issue going on.
not rly, i have used Chally 2 few times agaisnt it and its one of more reliable way to kill it, but i personally was able to shoot it atleast from 3-4 times from side or rear without killing it, while some one else did during my reload. that thing is busted. 7 times is little excessive but not rly rare.
