New players don’t care nor look at forums. Took me three top tier nations and a year to finally get on forums. Most new players play USA realize the game is mid to them because they have to learn then hop on games their friends already play. Most gamers play for friendship and fun unlike us.

2 things
A: can we pls talk how he penned my Puma with Level 3 Armor?

B: can we pls speak about the shrapnel???
It cane from an diffrent apot were he hit me

GHPC will eventually catch up the War Thunder but as of right now. This BMPT BS (which I don’t mind needs fixing for balance) needs attention. It’s like watching Intel fall to having nothing when people warned them AMD is coming and coming quick. Makes sense while Gajin keeps releasing new games instead of fixing what they already have that works.

Hard balancing Russian tanks without ERA, I think if they made it realistic where it actually isn’t as good it will kill Russia as a nation in game.

STANAG?

Nah, level is right, Level 1/2/3, we have the BW Level 3 armor

Haha, then the answer is pretty simple. Gaijin has a fundemenal lack of understanding regarding what STANAG armour ratings means

Not level 6? Is the in game version different? Even if the BMPT had apfsds, it shouldn’t penn puma’s hull frontally i believe irl.

As if Gaijin would even know what STANAG is

  1. You’re talking about a game made 10 years ago that devs haven’t fixed “bugs” that were present at launch.

Probably explain both of your question :D

It’s freaking hideous 🤮

I mean yea, as I said - you caught him with pants down.

were it not for that rock, he would absolutely demolish you before the second round got loaded like i demolish bowl of cereal late at night (its like a velociraptor goring a pig).

im not entirely sure if shooting at that exact same angle but lower would change anything, you woud either still hit the ERA + fuel tank combo or the round would be too low to do any substantial damage.

Wasn’t that the thing where on the challenger 2, they think the protection values are from the side of the armour?

Ie, when the panel is mounted on the side of the tank, it would have to be shot from the front or back of the tank to get the actual correct values whereas in reality those protection values should be from a 0 degree angle firing directly into the panel.

They also think the plate the panel is mounted on to is included in the protection values, when that makes zero actual sense as the panels don’t come with those mounting plates, they’re vehicle specific and the protection values come from the manufacturer so how can the mounting plate possibly contribute to the stated values?

I may be mis-remembering but I recall this being a huge nerf with zero logical sense.

This leads to the side armour dramatically underperforming.

I dont recall the specifics, but yeah. the Challenger 2 is missing a considerable amount of survivability because of this.

that was with the ERA which was rated to withstand 30mm at certain distance at certain angle where it didnt travel through the entiriety of the ERA block, but gaijin, in their infinitive wisdom, decided that protection value was at 90° angle impact traveling through all the layers.

That was it, along with the mounting plate shenanigans they pulled.

I’m still salty about the games they played with the challenger 2. The reworked damage model on the dev server was way better but they just memory holed it and gave us the same old crap sadly.

Christ, they can’t even be bothered the correct damage model on what they call rhe challenger 3, still uses the pre-rework challenger 2 model if I recall correctly.
