It’s amazing how the autoloader still isn’t modeled as a horizontal drive like it is with any other tank
To be fair, it’s already fighting top tier ammunition (Gen II and III). Gaijin really either just needs to remove it or start putting out better ammo that’s anti-ERA (Gen IV and V).
And that makes what fair exactly? considering it gets consistent downtiers you tell me your pick for what 10.3 you would want to fight a bmpt in in fact actually just even at tier what 11.3 do you want to fight a terminator in. I’d take it a step further I dont like fighting them at top tier either because the 30mm apds takes barrels in seconds. there is nothing fair about the current state of the BMPT in any way shape or form.
Gaijin really taking their time to move it up to 12.7
If NATO ifvs and light tanks can be bothered to play against tanks they can’t frontally kill so can the Bmpt.
i play US 10.3 and UK 10.7 (because im dumb and stubborn ) and it’s CONSTANT uptiers against the BS wonder wagon.
1 in 20 might be a downtier and then i get teamed up with a bunch of passive players with 1 vehicle in their lineup and strong will to sit at spawn in a free spaa when they die.
Not sure whats the biggest mistake is, the free spaa which just are free SL, RP and SP for the spawn camping Russians, or the BS wonder wagon that makes this spawn camping so bloody easy.
As am I. I’m playing Germany 12.3, US 12.0 and Japan 12.0-13.0. They are not an issue at those BRs.
Agreed, I’m just pointing out that pushing it up does nothing to actually fix the issue, it just pushes it to a higher BR xD
Must be getting good matchmaking then. I’m watching teams get rolled by them in mere minutes (both when I play NATO and Russia).
I’m still surprised this thread still exists. From a BMPT perspective, it’s hard to find a player who has trouble destroying BMPT.
It’s more likely that the entire Soviet tree in the 10.3 - 11.3/11.7 range is practically the best machines on their RB.
Matches where he throws the entire BMPT team are usually lost :D
Or its just a bias, those games stick out more than others so you only remember those instead of standard games.
I can count with less than 10 matches in the past month that haven’t been dominated by BMPTs between 10.7 to 12.7 when brought out.
Either I’m the most absolute dogwater player at toptier or you must literally sit in spawn sniping or sit in a light vehicle to rush SU30MKM if the BMPT is “Not an issue” for 12.0-13.0 JP, literally the most pre-melted butter tanks at top tier that a single burst from APDS can kill…
You’re free to add me on Discord (zulizia.) to watch some clips of me running circles around Russian teams, I never sit back w/ the TKX/Type 10, I’m always up front.
When did you last play JP, going through the replays your first page so far is all RU 2S38 spawns off rip.
1-2~ days ago, again feel free to add me on Discord if you don’t believe me.
What can I say, I love funny APHE Autocannon w/ HE-VT
I prefer to see actual gameplay, I could present cherry picked clips where I instagib BMPTs, doesn’t mean they’re not an issue.
Even more so when the first JP gameplay replay I found was 2 light vehicles and 2 SPAA as your spawn, making it clear your aim is to get into the Su30 as fast as possible to fling KH lol…
Then go ahead and pull up my replays, I can tell you not all of them are amazing but from my experience I don’t really have an issue with the BMPT at (mainly) 13.0 Japan. When I was dying, it was mostly just due to my bad positioning, overcommits or running out of darts in my ready rack.
If its the Breslau game, yeah I wanted to try out slinging Kh-38ML from the airfield. If you look at my stats in the last week, I’ve barely touched light vehicles in Japan. 22 Games w/ TKX.

Not to mention my KD w/ the TKX is 54/22 *within the last week. You don’t get 22 deaths in 22 games sitting in spawn and spamming Su-30MKM (which is only in 11 matches, so clearly not my main goal.)

I don’t have any of the jp mbts but based on my experience fighting them, the type 10 actually has a tiny bit more armor than the rest of them, it is not as easy as killing the Fuji or tkx, the protection feels like it’s leclerc and their strong lfp is almost identical
Type 10/TKX are hands down the most lightly armored modeled MBT at top tier, any and every sort of dart can straight up pen your face and cheeks, the only saving grace is the 4 sec rof and hydropneumatic suspension that lets you be cheeky, but other tanks have 5 sec rof with far superior surviability, Abrams and Leclercs, the leclercs of which many say is the better Type 10 because it offers way more survivability and has superior mobility.
Better yet, I challenge you to take the Type 89 (which uses 127mm APDS) and try to pen any other top tier MBT in the face that isn’t the breach, meanwhile BMPT APDS (82mm btw) can go through almost the entire front of the Type 10/TKX face or super exposed driver port, not to mention effortlessly through the lower glacis where it would struggle for any other MBT with the exclusion of the Leclerc.
Man id love to play 10.3 - shame gaijin have lost their minds
