Is it just me or is the BMPT / BMPT 72s still doing good at 11.3?

So on a curious note I think BMPT / BMPT 72 is still going good at 11.3 with the recent BR change honestly after being at 10.0, 10.3 and at 11.3 as of right now I wouldn’t be surprised if they bump up the BMPTs towards 11.7 or 12.0 to finally fix the OP spam of the BMPTs lol.

Also if you think I’m wrong about this or misinformed about the current state of the BMPT’s meta than please leave a comment below so that I can see which parts of my information about this was wrong since I don’t want to spread false information about the current state of the BMPTs at 11.3.

What’s your concept of “OP spam”? Terminator will perform practically the same if the differences of players in battle rating 10.3 to battle rating 11.3 still the same, vehicles almost identical other than minor ammunition improvement, Terminator has top (literally top) tier armor with battle rating 10.3 firepower (BMP-2M is the closest comparison, which people bring into top tier line-up),

It will perform the exact same regardless of the battle rating, does it need change? In my opinion no, and I sincerly hope that this is just a screaming minority, the few moments in the past two weeks playing the Terminator I didn’t found myself brutally destroying tanks as people portray here.

If you ask me it’s almost an inevitability that it gets into 11.7, perhaps even 12.0, but it’ll probably get better missiles and APFSDS. I don’t think it’ll fix the ,OP spam" due to the fact that they face some of the best rounds in the game at 11.3 anyway, but it’ll expose top tier to the bulk of the Terminators so perhaps the frequency of the aforementioned may matter.

The tech tree one might get moved up by .3

It still pretty much an very great vehicle in 12.7 if you use it the right way.

So what? The point of moving it up in BR was not to make it do poorly.

I dont think any BR will actually curtail the BMPT, but it probably could do with being 11.7/12.0 just to push it out of sight of the weakest at 10.X.

The issue, all other autocanon vehicles are usually fairly easy to kill, few can tank more than 1 hit and usually it still does meaningful damage. BMPT has the survivability of a 12.7 MBT and an autocanon. Its always going to be powerful.

That is until such time that ERA-Perforation is added and they properly model the ammo on the BMPT so its internal and not external, then it should become less annoying

Well for starters when they first came out at BR 10.0 they were already extremely powerful and OP since their 30mm APS rounds could basically tear through any tank even if it was heavily armored or had composite armor + screens (Just shoot the gun barrel or disable the turret and they were pretty much fucked) as well as the powerful 9M120 ATGM which could pretty much one or two shot a tank instantly plus if you aced your crew with either BMPTs than your response time would be increased so in turn you had a very powerful and mobile overpowered modern TD but the only downside to it was it’s armor since any good APFSDS or ATGM could destroy it in one shot. And since your team was playing a shit load of them then you knew you would be winning the match instantly 90% of the time, it was the same thing when it was bumped up to 10.3 until Gaijin finally placed it at 11.3 which sort of solved the OP BMPT spam as well as making them balanced.

So this is my concept of “OP Spam” and I’ve seen this type of OP Spam before like with the 2S38, IS6, T29, and Leopard A1A1 L/44 in the past before their BRs got bumped up in order to balance them out.

This vehicle should be moved to BR 12.7 or removed from the game entirely. Currently, BR 10.3-12.3 vehicles don’t stand a chance against it. And it’s exhausting to see matches where 70% of the team is a BMP-T or BMP-T 72s. It either needs to be moved to the highest BR or nerfed.

As you can see in the screenshot, few people play as any other nation but the Russians anymore, because there’s simply no point in ruining their K/D because of the nearly indestructible BMP-T.

I don’t know what the game developers are trying to show with this, but if this continues, people will simply stop playing top BRs because the game will be pointless.

I’m currently playing Japan 11.7, and these battlefields are completely unplayable. I can’t get more than 6-7 kills in a game with 3 vehicles spawning. The Type 90 shell simply ricochets off the battlefield blocks, or if it hits a crew member, it just turns them orange or red. I simply don’t understand how to destroy the BMPT effectively, even at long range. It’s impossible because my vehicles get one-shotted by the slightest ammunition, even though my pathetic APSFDS only has 480mm of pen.

I’m depressed by the spam of these damn vehicles; running into a team full of BMPTs isn’t frequent, it’s in every match.

Even at 11.3, it’s a very toxic machine. It’s not even about its combat rating, but its incredible survivability and ease of gameplay. The BMPT is played literally with just a mouse button and the W key. Even very weak players can create nukes on it, the kind they’d previously only seen on YouTube. The Namer 30, for example, at 11.3, was never as toxic as the BMPT. BR=>12.7
