Nope. You have zero evidence I did that. You are arguing conjecture.
Unless I explicitly say something, I never said it nor thought it.
Well maybe Mista shouldn’t do that.
He should be like myself that never puts down anyone.
I’ll continue never posting anecdotes.
I’ll continue treating everyone with respect and equality.
I’ll continue being honest and direct cause my autism makes it my default thus is easiest to do.
And you’ll apparently claim everyone on the forum is uninformed.
Can we get passed this misunderstanding or are you going to continue after I clarified?
how about you include your actual first post.
1: I was responding to a guy saying the 2S38 is too powerful at 10.0, so yes, i agreed with him. I don’t think you are grasping what I meant by OP. OP means overpowered, as everyone knows, but it doesn’t mean its the best thing ever. I think a move to 10.3 or 10.7 would be perfect for the 2S38 and to be fair I don’t even thing it would affect its matchmaker or how it would be played. You saying that the M3A3 is balanced where it is was my main problem with you saying this
2: me saying the same as the BMP-2M and the 2S38, referring to battle rating, was to say, I think these vehicles are more powerful than the M3A3, not your HSTV-L you love to talk about
3: It should be easy for you to process that this post isn’t about the 2S38. There were simply comments about it. I was trying to have a discussion about cool features gaijin could add to the M3A3 or improvements in general. Obviously, the 2S38 is going to have to be used as a comparison, because it is one of the fewer amount of 10.0 light tanks that have a smaller gun at 10.0. could have said some other vehicles, but I would say the BMP-2M and the 2S38 are the 2 best light vehicles with smaller guns at 10.0.
You seem to forget that I’m largely agreeing with you just with a different solution that brings up the things that would over-perform over M3A3.
And I apologize for anything I stated that you didn’t easily understand or caused any other issues for our understanding cause you and I are on the same page, just different paragraphs.
Since no one else did I’ll just post it now, this is what’s on page 2-366. Under “equipment conditions” it states that the vehicle is parked + hand brake.
Additionally, in FM-3-22.1 it states that “only a stationary Bradley can fire its TOW”.
@MistaFin
This is a non-final list of BR changes:
VCC-80/60: 9.3 - 9.7.
Begleitpanzer: 9.7.
ZBD04A: 9.7 - 10.0.
M3A3: 10.0.
Desert Warrior: 10.0.
BMP-2M: 10.0.
2S38: 10.3.
Strf 9040C: 10.0 - 10.3.
Strf 9040 BILL: 10.0 - 10.3.
Freccia: 10.7.
Namer 30: 10.7.
KF-41: 10.7 - 11.0.
HSTVL 11.3/11.7.
Decompression. Gives M3A3 breathing room since it’ll be in 10.0 lineups regardless, and upticks everything arguably superior to it.
MBTs and light tanks could and likely should uptick as well.
This is true, but its not that we should keep it at 10.0 just because it will be in the 10.0 lineup.
I would like you to quote these then.
you didn’t even say things needed to be moved up. you said there “could be compression around 10.0.” you then name things that are, in your opinion, powerful for their battle rating. Don’t forget, you stated “M3A3 is balanced where it is”
i mean sure but I, personally, think the BMP-2M probably needs moved up, especially if 2S38 and literally anything else at 10.0 is getting moved up. I definitely could be wrong on this, but from what i’ve seen, I thought it was probably the best 10.0 IFV
I’ve yet to see evidence of BMP-2M either in the cross analysis or practical testing that it can do more than M3A3.
It’s of course subject to change, I just haven’t found the angle yet if it exists.
I thought that by giving the few examples I had at the time would explicitly indicate that.
Also BMP-2M is largely inferior to the 10.3 suggestions I posted such as 2S38 and Strf 9040 BILL.
Obviously BMP-2M is inferior to Freccia. Whether it’s on-par with Vilkas that’s up for debate, I know Vilkas is larger than Freccia.
I actually have a USMC ex-M1A1 crewman friend. Pretty cool dude, He says his loaders, and himself regularly did that. Also, we could probably ask @Conte_Baracca
Faster, more missiles loaded at once, missiles are more competent vs the enemy they face, launcher can be fired on the move, cannon is genuinely better, what more do you need?
The BMP-2M is better than the M3A3 in this game, in every way.
I think its quite a bit faster (not sure) the gun is much faster firing (with a comparable APFSDS round) and the missiles are better, as they can be fired on the move with better penetration than the TOW-2A, but I guess it doesn’t have a top-down missile.
