Also I find it very funny how all of the other vehicles this patch recieved baskets for no good reason whatsoever and meanwhile, the BMPT’s didnt, despite it being the primary example of a vehicle where a basket actually makes sense…
(BMPT-72 brochure - uralvagonzavod, primary source)
I mean… It literally IS a basket.
0-20 and 0-30 is pretty meaningless data, every high tier vehicle is quick to reach such a low speed.
Clearly western propaganda, the turret actually hovers using magnets and isn’t attached at all, the crew simply pulls the entire thing to rotate it :)
Thats a biaswagon. Especially that is didn’t recieve a basket. Every new addition got one. Even my T400 event wheely.
works for me
Wow, you have to flip a coin before you shoot.
Just RNG at this point, had a match where i got both left and right belt and still survived
only one of them even bothered being set on fire from it
huh… almost as if thats an intended gameplay feature
funny how literally nobody cares about this
it’s intended, yeah but it also depends on the ammo count and the type
and as far as i’m aware, that belt doesn’t have a blowout rack on the inside to prevent that fire from killing the crew
it does and it doesnt, in my experience and limited testing all ammo types are random the same
but there are also british shells which are inert
its a halfassed gameplay feature… just like any other in this wretch of a game
exactly, bmpts have no blowout panels
i would expect those to become a 100% oneshot kill when they get enough money from paypigs
DEVS does not care… remember that :)
Thinking about it, does the autoloader just push the ammo upwards or does it keep the ammo in the conveyer/belt and the one below seperated until needed?
just wondering if the ammo destruction should be limited to the belt or if it should go throughout the entire hull
I am pretty sure the autoloader is just there to help push the belts up to the guns so they dont have to pull on the entire weight of the belt themselves.
So like honestly if the ammo belt is cut what should happen (if it doesn’t detonate and kill the tank) is that you should just be force to go through a short 10-20 second reloading process.
Also like… the fact that the BMPTs are just blatantly broken and should go up in br aside.
I would take some of the arguments made by some people here seriously if they were
A. Not single nation mains making the most outlandish takes that sometimes have nothing to do with the topic at all.
B. People posting gameplay clips of them trying to frontally fight the thing with MBT level protection in a vehicle that can barely survive 20mms on a good day. Like come on bro…
But thats kinda the point. Autocanon tanks are powerful, always have been always will be (at least most of them) but they usually trade that firepower and usually decent mobility for having next to no survivability (outside of buggyness from the shells just hitting nothing and doing no damage)
BMPT has all 3, Decent mobility, very powerful autocanons with ATGMs and better survivability than more than a few top tier MBTs.
So when a BMPT just charges around the corner… What else are you, or really can do in that split second?
There are two belts in total, one per gun. Otherwise there is no separation of the belts.
The “autoloader” just moves the selected belt up.
There are irl vids where Terms light up, huge explosion, after FPV drone hit into the turret. Even a recent one. Clearly internal ammo rack. From the turret all the way down in the magazine. Like a fuse.
They are yes but even then a well played MBT or light tank with a good gun is always better and going to be able to shut them down rather easily. I have played more than enough of the 35mm spammers and fought against them enough to know this.
While this is true posting a clip of an M3A3 trying to frontally engage a BMPT and hit its tiny ammo belts and very predictably loosing the fight doesnt exactly illustrate any point other than that person was in a bad position and was honestly going to lose that fight mo matter what.
You cook off a 30mm inside an enclosed steel box and most of the crew will be in pretty bad shape.
Lol, I like to play it again sometimes, but the Terminator is one of those vehicles that ruin your match.
