Russian autoloaders need to be changed

Whats the point in your comment other than trying to make a dig at folks who disagree with yourself?

None.
Edit changing “n” to “and”
stop trynna chime in with something after the dust has settled and its stopped , you wee rabble rouser.

Not overall. Smin has made it veryyy clear that Gaijin’s balancing is majorly based on how much RP & SL a vehicle managed, hence why F-4F Late, back in F-14A meta, despite pulling 15% WR and overall K/D of 0.5 did not get 9Ls, because it was earning enough RP & SL via base bombing. Yes, Gaijin does take overall stats into account a little bit, especially if a vehicle is standing out of line too much, but overall balancing is based on RP & SL earning.

For a bit yes.

And when was that? In 2021, based on youtube, 7.3
In 2020 it was at 7.7
8.0 in 2016 (same as Leopard 1A1A1s)
7.7 in 2018
7.7 in 2019

At the time of its introduction in 2015, it didn’t even have a BR, it had a “tier”, i.e Tier V.

Agreed!

It was definitely 7.3 for a good chunk of its lifespan, as it was a great addition to the RU-251

7.3, yes, but he’s talking about it being AT 7.0, which it never was.

ARB is different than GRB as it has PvE element which will provide you with pretty decent RP/SL gains without even being engaged by another player once.

In GRB, most of your RP/SL gains come from kills/assists which are obviously hard stats.

This just proves further that SL & RP are looked at more than “hard stats”, since the former in GRB is a result of the latter in 90% of occassions (the 10% being when you get a super lucky streak of capping multiple times).

Aaand the rUsSiAn BiAs people came, fantastic

In GRB that RP/SL gain is directly (and almost exclusively) connected to kills/assists aka hard stats, so it’s pretty safe to say that hard stats determine the balance of vehicles in GRB.

ARB is different though as I already said.

I’m pretty sure for a period of time it was. Not a long period mind you, but it definitely has been all over the 7.0 - 8.0 area

I’ve checked the one place that always keeps data on when a vehicle was criminically undertiered, reddit, there is no mention of 7.0

I’m pretty sure he’s confusing the Leo 1 with M48A2C which WAS at 7.0 for a time.

Lmao Reddit isn’t the best site for that.

Delusional as always, let’s rather not see the huge advantages that Russia has and years of Kamovs domination over the battlefield and let’s focus on how they’re so bad when an AA has spawned, when there’s literally 95% of every match you play against Israel,Britain,USA, all of these nations you get to fight against has shit SPAAs but Muh give us FnF so we can have more broken stuff than we already got.

Second best nation in the game, Vikhrs can intercept Tanks,Jets,Missiles, KH38 +20km range with 6 of them on the SU34, but somehow it’s not enough, and let’s not forget how the autoloader acts as a spall liner which is the subject of the topic.

Making Russia look weak is not working.

I’ve just shot a 105mm DM33 through the side of an T-80UD with no ammo explosion. Here’s what I noticed about it.

Here’s the impact point, round slightly bounced at the point of entry and went a bit to the engine.

According to the server replay, he had 17 rounds in total so 16 would be in the carousel. This was the position of the turret at the moment he got shot. Also, after he got shot he didn’t lose any ammo, so I doubt any ammo actually blacked out from the shot.

This is how the carousel looks like with 16 rounds in it. Slots directly in front and back of the gunner are empty, so there’s a very big chance my round hasn’t hit anything explosive along it’s way.

That being said, I don’t really think this happened because of a bug in my case, rather it’s a slightly bad shot that’s paired with a bit of (un)luck.

(I have clips as well if you’re interested in seeing those)

Their efficiency drops substantially when AA is spawned, which isn’t really the case for FnF helicopters.
ADATS and all similar AAs can threaten Kamovs to the point they can’t really target ground units until that AA is dealt with.

It’s funny how you say I’m delusional but you’re the one that’s putting words in my mouth.
I never said they should get FnF, I just stated a fact that AAs have much more impact on Kamov’s efficiency than they do on FnF helicopters.

The autoloader is not what causes the tanks to go off, it’s the ammunition stored within it, add on top the RNG of ammo detonation and you get a frustrating experience with Russian tanks.

ADATS is one of the worst SPAAs in Top Tier, if you have a problem in dealing with one i must say it’s a skill issue, 8 missiles that are super slow you can see him launching and easily drop behind the trees or even intercept the missile like what this video shows.

Also i didn’t say that you did, but most of Russian mains ask for it while Vikhrs being a superior missile than most.

I’ve been spading my Strv’s recently(which has been a fucking pain) after I wallet warrior’ed my way to top tier because that premium grind is absolutely awful.

I haven’t noticed it because I’m seemingly not playing Russia as much and they’re on my team more often, but it seems like I’m on a kick of it not happening. So I can’t contribute anything atm.

I will once I have I have a repeat again. I don’t want to go back to Jap or US and invite the headache of playing with or as US all the time just to try and make it happen again lol

And it’s unequivocally true, and why even with better missiles, FNF is preferable. AA doesn’t nearly influence your efficacy like it does SACLOS.

If you’re around 9.3 you’ll get a lot of copy paste 72s to shoot at and test.
This was my first “incident” in days and after reviewing it I don’t think anything weird or buggy happened.

They can’t even guide their missiles to kill tanks if they constantly have to dodge SAMs.
Some people fail to understand this.
