No, this bug in particular only affected APHE, API, APHEC/BC/CBC, SAP, SAPHEI, SAPHE, SAPHE/C/BC/CBC and HEAT (but I noticed that later).
Puma just has a shitty damagemodel where the commander’s and horizontal-drives’ hitboxes extend out of the hull, which means that any damage to them will deal pressure damage to the crew as the cmdr and H-drive are considered as part of the crew-compartment.
If they nerf it in a couple of months, I’ll be laughing at people who bought the premium one for full price. If they don’t, no big deal! I just won’t be playing 10.7 or anything adjacent for a while.
USA has nothing good from after BR 9.3 to BR 11.7. Except the broken M10 Booker. So it wasn’t going to bother me. Sweden I feel is my favorite around BR 10 but I don’t mind people buying BMPT if they’re having fun. Lol
There really is something about this…
If you want to protest a vehicle, you don’t stop playing the game… you play other game modes and BRs.
14.3 air BRs, 13.0 ground, 8.7 naval, and helicopters.
Arcade, realistic, simulator.
When Puma was OP I played WW2 and modern.
When EBR was OP I played cold war and modern.
When 13.0 is currently compressed, I do my best to play props and early jets.
Yes, we’ve criticized every new vehicle added to the game, but this one has brought me to the point of quitting a game I’ve been playing since 2016. You’ve created a tank that can’t be penetrated even with DM53 rounds from a Leopard gun, and it completely disrupts the balance of the game. A vehicle that is already cancerous at its own BR should not be this strong at 12.7. If I gave this tank to my 12-year-old child, he could easily get 5–6 kills with it. Just to put on a show of power, you’ve gone way too far with this tank—fix it. Otherwise, I can honestly say that for the first time I’m seriously considering quitting War Thunder. You have never added such an unfair vehicle before, and this is driving me insane. I could buy this vehicle and play it too, but then all the time spent on crew points, experience, and strategy becomes completely meaningless. Enough is enough. Really, enough………
Still, some people like playing higher BR’d vehicles. Many have probably gotten into the game to get the so hailed Leopards, the T-series tanks, or the Abrams (not denying that many others have come for the planes, the Tigers, the WW2 vehicles as a whole or anything in between). There’s a “line” where adapting to the game’s progression is meaningless, we the players have to flexible but the game developers have to understand that there’s a point where players start getting overly frustrated with the different decisions they take. Plus there’s not so many other games you can play similar to War Thunder if any.
This line up is dog water. LAV can’t lock on cas for anything and Roland gets 2 shots before it glitches and starts break dancing for its reload. Those abrams are garbage when the leo exists but better and bradleys have always been bad. HSTVL is alright but very situational and you get no good thermals across the line minus the stryker which has 0 gun depressuon. M10 Booker is the only good tank here.
I rather play the BMPT at least you can terrorize US mains
Not many Italian mains stayed to these days it seems. I’m too busy grinding the second Littorio to pay attention to another overpowered ground tech.
I walked KF41 a few times recently, but it’s always been kinda meh no matter BMPT spam, though I managed to witness how my team disappeared in few minutes under that continues noise of Soviet fast-firing 30 mm cannon.
