No the Spikes does not account for the unreasonable high BR. When the update goes live i presume we will have to write that it need to be downtiered a notch or two. Also since it is currently missing alot of features and functions. And not to mention the 30mm bushmaster that wont do it any good…
Hm i dont really know who to message or tagg in here…Gunjob?
I think he mostly deals with reports related to planes. if nothing else we could ask Gunjob who best to tag when it comes to ground vehicles.
Gaijin seems to enjoy installing 30mm Bushmaster in various countries. At least in recent years, most of the IFVs they have added are dominated by 30mm Bushmaster weapon systems, while the IFVs for 35mm Gun are only type89 and 9035. type89 has been added for a long time, so not counting the past few years, the remaining 35mm IFVs are only two 9035s, and their commonality is that they cannot be obtained through the technology tree, only through joint teams or GE
Due to certain reasons, the 30mm Bushmaster can only fire at a rate of 200 rounds in the game. I think it should increase its firing rate to face opponents with high BR. Of course, what we need more is more IFVs with 35mm/40mm/50mm/57mm GUN on the technology tree
Hey, @Gunjob do you know who we could tag to emphasize or highlight these bug reports for this vehicle coming in the next patch? We understand that you are more into the Air sector from my understanding but we are just wondering if you know who to turn to for ground.
Thank you for your time reading this.
Hige rip since none of the reports could be looked at, looks like the MK.IV is going to be DOA if it stays the same as it currently is
Shocker, dw there’s always next year XD
Thats if they bother to fix it next yeat lmao. More likely they’ll leave it to rot
Gotta love a 9.7 IFV with afew spikes (which miss or mildly damage in most cases) at 10.7… XD no air burst, no optical tracking no real additional protection…no thanks
A 8.7 (how the 9030 is 9m3 is beyond me) ifv at 10.7 with no AA, no spall liners, no mobility, no armor, no fire power. Vs the puma and lynx which somehow became not the worst ifvs at 10.7 by a huge margine
My guess is that they will start looking at them next week, but sure enough i dont believe they will change anything before christmas, which is a shame and unfortunate, but we must keep our hopes up and wait for there response.
Hey, @Piciu713 , would you mind taking a look at our bug reports for this vehicle for next week? They are important features.
Armor on the CV90 MKIV is incorrect // Gaijin.net // Issues
CV90 Mk.IV - Missing ABM // Gaijin.net // Issues
CV90 Mk.IV - Search and Track function // Gaijin.net // Issues
Doubt they’ll change anything gaijin and buffing CV90’s or implementing them correctly is very unlikely
the new patch lived today.
the bill missile launcher pissed me off and i felt I was cheated. 9040 with a useless missile launcher increased +0.6 br. It’s fine, I use it with 90105 lineup.
now, 9030fin adds a new missiles system, increased 1.4 br. only the 9m133 worth that 1 br.
I don’t know what to say.
Magic
they changed the mk258 position, moved from the stage 4th to 3rd.
no aps, no air tracker, no liner. it’s just the cv9030 fin with 2 missiles.
bruh.
I’d rather keep playing cv9030 instead of suffered on br 10.7
and it has even worse armor than cv9040c/cv9030fin.
there is only 20+20 mm on turret and the extra 20mm only covered half of turret
the turret armor of 9030fin is 20mm steel + 50 mm composite screen, it can take 23mm ap-t at least.
there is no composite screen on UFP of mkiv, only 20mm.
The 9040 c could take the 25/30mm apds/apfsds at the front.
the 90 mkiv could only take 20mm hvap, even the 23mm ap-t would pen it.
no reason to play this one.
armor level: cv9040c >> cv9035 nl >> cv9030 fin > cv9035 dk >= cv90 mkiv > 9040 b/bill
lvkv9040c has more crews, is the king of cv90 series.
Doa then
guys we knew they werent going to fix anything before launch of new patch, focus on bug reports to try and get things fixed in the near future.
No reason to just complain without it being constructive. I agree with a lot of your concerns but just complaining without trying to help with bug-reporting or source gathering wont really help anyone.
Even an argument for lowering the BR would need to be constructive, have comparative points, well structured arguments and not only a “it sucks” kind of sentiment.
