BMPT/72 Should not be 10.3

Oh god now that i think of it.

We except worse reactions from people when the 2017 upgrade package will be added.

Even worse.

Infantry mode will get afvs and if the bmpt get added, the forum is screwed

Best Namer (in my opinion) is the Namer-30 due to the -20 Vertical Guidance it gets, you can just hide your entire tank and just show your turret. Spikes are spikes and Bushmaster is the Bushmaster so you might not get BMPT performance (lol). The Tsrikhon (difficult to spell that one) has an APS which actually works (after months of it not working even when pointing the dispensers to the threat on test drive although it doesn’t stop (guess what…) KHs, LMURs and Ba-11s, might also not stop heli Spikes but I haven’t experienced getting even targeted by Spike carriers (they do have the Eurofighters) and me playing Israel basically makes it impossible to get paired against it. Brimstones, it does thankfully tank them . I’ve got hit by them of course, it’s not a 100% chance of stopping it but still it’s high enough to not worry much about it and actually look at the ground vehicles that might start touching you.
Also, if by chance you actually “evade” a KH it just disables the entire tank, breaking tracks, breach gun barrel and god knows all the components making you a very easy target.
I’d guess that’s the reason why they have the same BR, the first one gets better depression and the second trades it for an APS.

Just protect and move your ass when someone sees you because ammo racking it is as easy as using miniguns, it basically depletes all of its rounds and makes you rely on Spikes if you still have them or cope with it/go to a point to reload and try to stay alive whilst doing so.
Although not the same, the Tsrikhon also gets ammo racked but with a round to its turret, it also depletes all the ammo and so on.

So very usable that it was deployed only a couple of times in a war that should have been the perfect battleground for it and said deployments ended up in failures.

There’s a reason why most other nations never seriously pursued similar concepts.

I only play top tier and when you’re at the top of 12.7 there’s really nothing to complain about if you have everything. My problem with the APC’s (Bradleys, PUMA, BMPs) is they’re expected to act like tanks which is fine but they need better perks. (Maybe fully crewed up to 9, Recon UAV that’s automatic vs manual, INTEL, ATGMs that work, Support MBT’s with faster repair and replenish their missing crew as an APC would) maybe I need a thread to Gajin about this.

I wish we had more light tanks besides BMPT for 10.7 😭

A nice thought, but infantry prob cant control APCs.

People are already saying recon scouting is op.

Fully support

A really interesting thought.

I would fully back you if u make this thread.

So far, even without the “Additional ERA Kit” it is STUPIDLY survivable 😂 I might have to pay for the Ace training once I get to the 50% reduction in GE’s, just to see how stupid I can get it.

This is such a weird case where we are rooting players to slaughter in the terminator so we can get balance lol.

The USSR has more light tanks than anyone else at that BR, by like a factor 2 or 3

Not gonna lie, me too. Scouting is OP/unrealistic, but it’s been nerfed enough, and with SPAAs it basically isn’t hard to get them. Another thing is whether your team’s SPAAs do it or not (I don’t trust mine, so I just get them with my Namer)

This is more of like actually deploying infantry on the map. I think Lamda’s idea of adding crew inside APC only is more realistic and won’t interfere with the infantry game mode.

Gajin can easily say it’s mechanized infantry.

I think you should phrase it as extended crew for APC

This should be your main push. It would encourage APC to stick with MBT. Help provide suppressive fire, scout tanks, replenish crew so MBT don’t need to drive to cap, and encourage people to bring APC to top tier to encourage more variety of vehicles.

This would be stupidly op in some cases so maybe avoid this.

I was talking for US top tier. I hate the HSTVL and love the HSTVL but I want to be full blown rat and HSTVL is too good that’s it’s a rat with muscles.

Nah, I hope he nukes 9.7-11.7 to oblivion. I want problems. I can avoid that BR easily but seeing the BMPT videos have me laughing 🤣

MAUS has a ton of crew, tiger has a ton of Crew. 9 crew on a paper thin Bradley isn’t going to break anything since they can just machine gun anways. Plus BMPT non premium has 5 crew 😭
