BMPT/72 Should not be 10.3

or… moving it up to 11.0 where it should be? Or maybe even 11.3 w/ darts?

what you blame me for your poor aim ? just trying to help out my guy.
take it or leave it.

I agree but people are coming from BR 12 and saying it’s too strong. Adding darts will just give people more to complain about. I think it’s fixable at 10.3 with some changes but with the terrible sentiment removing it would appease a majority of the community.

i literally shot him in the side, my shot created no spalll and im lucky i didnt die considering his cannon can easily pen my driver port. i shot him with a top tier shell.

you both stop making useless observations and admit that this thing should be at top tier with every other identical vehicle.

also for your first stupid point.

if the shot had created ANY spall it wouldve hit the ammo. which ofc wouldnt have done crap like most times.

example:


literally the other bmpt i found that match, i killed him with a follow up but the ammo didnt explode

dude the bmpt got 2 side. upper wont dothing except kill crew who will be replaced and FCS

but lower part will just vanishe the thing from existance.

nah it should be at 11.7 to be honest. i am a bmpt lover and i main it and no negotations need to be done.
11.7 is the best for all of us.

It isn’t too strong at 12+. Its definitely one of the best non-mbt vehicle but not too strong.

Not at 12.0+ where it just makes the autocannon competitive (considering other autocannons would have better rounds).

Removing it is just an excuse for Gaijin to be lazy and lax about balance. They can easily move it up to 11.0 (maybe 11.3) and it’d be fine. The issue right now is that its facing 9.7s when it really should not. It is competitive and strong at 11.0+ but not overwhelming.

11.7 as is for me is perfectly fine. I personally have not struggled with it at 12.7 and the M10 Booker at 10.7 handles it well. The new problem with the BMPT is the community sentiment wants this tank dead. If it it’s balanced at 11.7 people will come complain about weaker tanks in other nations that are at 12 without armor 😭

its plenty competitive with apds. adding apfsds would just make it op again.

it wouldnt, its just as cancerous in full uptiers.

I was fine. I was explaining it logically. Autocannon dispersion, survivability curves, comparative vehicles—very sane things. Very reasonable. And then it happened again. The BMPT didn’t die. It never dies.
And now—now I can’t finish thoughts without hearing the firing sound. BRRRRT—no, not brt, it’s not an A-10, it’s worse, it’s continuous. It’s always continuous. Even when I blink. Especially when I blink.
I tried to uninstall, but my mouse hovered over “repair files” instead and I took that as a sign. From whom? I don’t know. Gaijin? God? Soviet design philosophy made manifest?
You ever notice how ERA looks like little square thoughts? Like armor plates of the skull? You peel one off and there’s another one underneath and underneath that is just crew. Endless crew. Crew everywhere. Why are there so many of them. Where do they sleep.
I’ll be talking and then suddenly I’m thinking about elevation drives. I’ll be eating and I’m calculating angle of impact. I can’t remember my childhood but I can remember exactly where to shoot a BMPT and why it won’t matter.
Doctor, I think the tank is real.
Or I’m not.
When I close my eyes, I don’t see darkness. I see a stabilizer. I see tracers. I see the killcam slow down just enough to mock me. And somewhere, faintly, like a lullaby, a Russian autocannon whispers—
hit.
hit.
hit.
oh that’s funny. That’s funny, right? Because it never says “destroyed.” It never says destroyed. It never
is this the waiting room or am I in a lineup
why does the chair have ERA
why does everyone have ERA
I want to peel off that ERA. Is there ERA inside of me. I need to peel this flesh off of me.

Not in my experience. As long as you see it first, you can LFP it or shoot ammo feed. If you don’t see it first, they probably won’t ATGM you immediately so you have time to respond. If its side on, good luck. its just an uparmoured BMP-2M you have to aim properly at in my games.

Not really. You trade some more pen for less spall.

go play it before you lose everything

even in squadron battles, teams that have 1 or 3 bmpts can steamroll your entire team lmao

and he survives most likely, and if he sees you first youre instantly blinded and killed.

you are not making any real tradeoffs, apds means the side armor on some of the better armored tanks at the br will actually mean they arent instantly killed by it and with tanks with spawn liners gives them a saving grace if lucky, with apfsds its just as strong as it was. not to mention that apfsds is not a shell it actually uses.
it already has one of the fastest firing autocannons ingame it doesnt need apfsds to be competitive.

in the documents about the bmpts its stated that they dont use apfsds, only apds is an option against armored targets

russia barely even uses apds, apfsds isnt used on any of their 30mm autocannons irl.

you can also see that the belts are unprotected and should cause a chain reaction to detonate the entire ammo
