Planned Battle Rating changes for August 2025 (updated 16:00, 15.08)

lmao whatever mate, you can check the video yourself if you are not

also curious how you cant even get positive kd in a bmp3, yet somehow you manage to get a kd of 2 in a bmd4m… hmm… thats quite

Also considering you brought up air tracking, and continue to mention the BMP’s should be the same BR as the 9030, how do you justify it not having air prox ammo or air tracking?

Again it seems to me you know the BMP’s are good and are worried you cant seal club with them. Thats realistically the only explanation as to argument, lie about your bud dying to 50 cal. Say the BMP’s are bad and the 30mm does no damage and say that x nations vehicle is actually better. See id be inclined to believe you if you actually had a decent KD in the 9030 or showed gameplay. Again you haven’t shown anything to prove your argument.

Ill add that given your 9030 is stock i wont really expect anything KD wise but still you lack any show of evidence for your claims of the CV9030 being better than the BMP’s

Dog I will record it the next time I get killed by .50 cal magic.

Christ went you get hit by a .50 cal in a lot of Soviet vehicles, it’s like it has the initial spall, then the drivers vodka bottle gets hit and explodes sending glass into the other crew members and getting them all lol.

french tanks also suffer from that, i have completely stopped playing the leclerc because of that x)

Adats APDS nuking leclercs because of the fuel tanks is sad and funny, think my longest fuel tank kill was front bottom plate from about 1.2km i hit his engine with a missile and broke his horizontal. They have such terrible armor its insane

I think we need some decompression more than anything. The new top br bracket should be 14.0 for ground, to decompress a lot. That would fix a vast amount of these issues.

I don’t seal club in the bmd-4M, I bought it, use it a bunch, but get clobbered by some random spaa, or another IFv (usually something I didn’t see) or I run out of pen due to only having 4 ATGMs.

I never said the bmps were bad. Unless you count the 8.0 Soviet one.
The bmp-2 has a good auto cannon, but crap survivability.

The BMP-3 fixes both previous issue in the armor and killing capabilities so your immune to .50 caps frontally now.

The BMD-4M gets an irst and a quicker ATGM load time.

The final evolution is the Bmd-4 which can again be .50cal’d all over, but has speed.

It should ascend in that order.

In a duel I fear the CV9030 more because 1-2 shots from it will break my barrel, meanwhile it would be 4-8 shots from the BMPs

I haven’t ever seen it personally on anything but USSR and the occasional Chinese tank. I think maybe, just maybe it happened to an Italian once.

Care to show this supposed 1-2 shots frontally in a match then? Might i also remind you the BMP’s will often blind their target while shooting unlike the CV9030.

See id believe the 40mm could 2 tap a barrel

If this is your clip, you literally just barreled him in 1-2 shot.

I’m honestly confused at what your asking, because that was a triple kill

Eh, the 35mm is really inconsistent, i play it a lot but id rather have the 40mm as it has the 300rpm iver the 200rpm and it does more damage.

The 9035 should be 9.3 as it lacks air burst ammo and air tracking while only having a gun but with decent pen, its average at best at 9.7

The 9030 is just worse than a majority of 9.3’s to a point i even enjoy my RCV (unstabilized) at 9.0 because the 92mm pen 25mm gun has better firerate and mobility than the 9030

Difference is thats not a 30mm thats a 40mm, which is what i was getting at, i don’t believe the 30mm could do the same amount of damage such as break a barrel frontally in only 2 shots. Im not asking for a shooting range clip but in a real match after a target fires go and push and take its barrel in only 2 shots with the 9030 from the front.

I’d pretty much take 2A4 over anything that wasn’t MSC.

when will it be changed?

The BMD’s both have IRST to lock air targets which the BMP-3 does not have. I have all 3. The BMD-4M also has the optional extra armor, which I use, which often can protect against machine guns.

EDIT: Ah you did point out the IRST:

BMP3 is still more survivable to cannons and machine guns (I still agree BMD4s are .3 better, though)

And that also increases the weight quite a bit on the bmd-4M, making your slight mobility advantage that you gained from being lighter, gone. Often times I’ve really only found the add on armor to be useful in two circumstances.

  1. .50 cal’s cant really pen you frontally as much.
  2. Some auto cannons, if they spray and pray, will likely bounce frontally.

I agree the bmd-4 is .3 better,

But:

Bmp-3 = bmd-4m

I still find the extra armor to be worth it, it also sometimes helps against bombs that do not land right on top of you. MAYBE sometimes helps against HE over-pressure, but not so much to be really noticeable on that point.

Eh, I fully disagree. The BMP-3 and BMP-4M have the same hull armor without the extra add on armor. The extra add on armor does not show in the stat card when you enable it. It makes the BMD-4M have more armor than the BMP-3, just not on the turret, but definitely for the hull. Furthermore, that add on armor acts as spaced armor in multiple areas.

Idk, having used it both off and on, I haven’t really been able to decided if one side is worth it or not. You don’t have the increased mobility of the BMD-4 to get to a lot of these good early game positions with or without the armor.

I feel like it’s a choice of what you want to hunt.
IFVs? Take the armor.
MBTs? Don’t take the armor, fire once, and sprint away as quick as you canz
