I hadn’t played this game for a few months, and yesterday I decided to play a bit again.
My Russian 11.3 lineup:
MBTs
T-72 Moderna
Obj. 292
T-90
(T-72B3 — seriously, what is this doing at 11.3? Not long ago this thing was competing at top tier…)
Light tanks
2S38
BMP-2M
SPAA
Tunguska
CAS
Su-24M
Helicopter
Mi-28
The superior level of Russia at this BR is blatant. What other nation has a lineup this strong at this BR or even close to it?
Not to mention that in some matches there were — and yes, this is absurd — Pantsirs on our side!
Pantsir against 11.3.
What does the West have at 11.3? Tornados with laser GBUs? Lol.
And those Terminators just wipe the enemy team. They are MBTs, light tanks, tank destroyers all at once.
How is this sitting at 11.3???
Gaijin’s decisions should go through community polls, seriously. There’s no way to deny these vehicles are infinitely superior to the Western counterparts.
There’s basically no incentive to play another nation when we have everything that’s best on our side…
Yes i prefer this, the forum is the official channel of the game, and at the same time we have players like you that think that a t72b3 is a good tank to play against leopards 2a4 lol
And in turn the 2A4 gets to face tanks that it actually has no business facing. You just discovered both how downtiers work and the problem of BR compression.
When you compare the T-72B3 to other 11.3 MBTs it’s perfectly in fine capabilities wise.
They really need to flesh out the lineups at certain tiers and do some BR decompression. the sheer volume of vics have kind of ruined that BR with the BMPT. PS, they still havent fixed 1 death leaving. did they really think giving 2 stock free vics was gonna fix it? most just leave and not use them.
The rest of these replies here are unbelievable. Playing these tanks is incredibly easy compared to western counterparts at the same BR, and same goes with the toptier lineups as well. They should be moved up, and anyone arguing otherwise has a skillissue.
It’s incredibly easy to play all the Russian tanks. You’re forced to advance with your T90 while seven guys are hull-down in their Leopards.
At that point, you definitely have the advantage, that’s for sure.
Any time you talk about Russian Bias, you get the same couple people to come out of the woodworks to defend Gaijins abysmal game decisions. To them there’s no bias and no such thing as OP Russian equipment.
I have hundreds of battles in various T80 variants plus the 292, I can say without a doubt that they are very powerful. Referring to your previous post: K5 works very well against M829a1, sure it can be penned, but on very rare occasions, and the 2s38 is just dumbed, dart round eats everything
