Russian Teams Steamrolling NATO - Top Tier is Broken Again?

Ironic how there is no “American Teams Steamrolling everyone - Top Tier is Broken Again?”

In addition, this year, USSRs has suffered some of the major nerfs to its “wonderweapons”

Of course, it’s only a problem when Russia has the meta, otherwise it’s completely fine!

Only Russian vehicles can be op!

Never have i ever dreamt of someone actually recognising this fact, especially in war thunder forums out of all the places lmao

Cuz when usa/germany gets a buff, like the aim7(c)'s, the reaction is always like “oh, the aim7c’s are pretty fun after the update” as the demon proceeds to wipe matches, but when russia gets any kind of buff, even if it’s to some useless god forgotten vehicle to make it playable, someone will always manage to call it op.

Jokes aside though, the nato gets just as much overpowered shit as does ussr, nato mains just never acknowledge it, or what i’m afraid is worse - never realise what they’re playing is broken as fuck.

Some special individuals will then argue the opposite

(Su-30MK2 to 13.0 when gaijin? The players are struggling with it)

You are wee bit dishonest in this part

Not sure where your googly eyes are looking at exactly. I just see Winrates below 50% for russia. At every single BR.

yeah, it was a bit exaggerated (i haven’t been having the best time coming back to playing ussr after ages of grinding nato), but the amount of people i’ve seen defending the demon staying at 9.0 on like tiktok comments and even some of those threads is still too much

I might sound biased but for tiktok with its content quality (which matches viewers tastes for success) its not even surprising.

But overall I agree, some people just want to keep their stuff op without thinking about receiving end. Tho I wouldnt say its exclusive to just nato players.

true, but i’d say only partly, bc even on youtube the comments are questionable, like, recently zenturion7 released a vid about a t14 mod in war thunder and had to release a follow up saying that it was NOT actually in game because of the comments complaining abt it. (a bit off topic, ik)

Helis are balanced guys trust

In a UHT in nowadays economy? Not bad…

Thing is, how often do you have a match like this in one of the worst top tier helis? Any ldircm Ah64e, mi28nm or z10 me sees you, youre dead, nothing you can do. PARS literally refusing to do anything most of the time, straight up miss or get dodged because of their flat trajectory and long flight time?

Enemy team must have left you completely alone with jets and helis to pull that off…For more than 7 minutes. You need a very favorable map. And nonresponsive enemies that dont intercept your ordinance and never, ever go for you in a jet.
So i claim cherrypicking.

It was definitely somewhat cherrypicked
Arctic map
Helispawn behind their spawn

but still, the fact I can do this even occasionally for free without getting murdered after only having two kills in a tank is absurd
with LDIRCM this is much more consistent
At least UHT has the camera on top of the heli so I can peak at the map early

PARS damage hasn’t been that bad lately ngl
Although I usually spam like two per target

Ah yeah that one. A certified gaijin classic. The ultimate bowl to get smacked in from all directions. I would have loved to be there during their where-to-put-the-helicopter-spawns decision making.

I mean. You dont need that much more for some jets with very good cas loadout which results in a much safer way to get ground kills while not being at complete mercy of enemy fast movers. And nowadays any other ir agm equipped top tier heli.

If the enemy team doesnt react to that, like, at all, good for you and kinda on them, not gonna lie.
Average August K/S of 1.06 and K/D of 1.43 almost makes investing what 600? 700? SP to spawn it kind of a waste…What i guess I want to say is that for that extraordinary match in it youll most likely have 10 horrible ones, because youre completely at the mercy of the enemy team not doing anything about you. More than in almost any other heli in the entire game. The vast majority of helis around that br at least are somewhat of a threat to lots of things engaging them, unless you have brimstones or russian tv guided agms. And if you get shot down in a UHT at its own BR, with one kill only in it or even worse, none, because the PARS decided they dont wanna do damage, then thats quite a net negative in your (and your teams) SP pool that would have much better been used on something else thats more efficient…in repelling enemy cas, establishing map control or getting and holding caps.

But anyways a bit offtopic no? ;-) Though, ngl kinda looking forward to the (hopefully thats what he actually meant) ldircm rework BVVD just announced.

bro what… istg when i use spikes, they’re actually fucking useless, i have a clip of 4 of them missing a stationary fucking pantsir; i’ve had matches with them when 24 spikes have got me quite literally 0 kills and 6 assists cause they either miss, get shot down, or js get crits without killing the enemy

i’ve got ONE match where i got 8 kills with them, but that was the only time i was allowed to have fun in the ah60

I have something that will cause another stir on the forum and Reddit.

Is that a properly unmanned BMPT type turret? Like the PUMA and Namer?

If so, it might actually be easier to deal with as it wouldn’t have the big composite block and relikt ERA at the base of the turret

The area below the gun and above the driver’s hatch is super trolly on the current vehicle but that different turret looks to be simplified and lacks the full protection of the overhead manned turret

Why? Gaijin already treats the BMPT turret as properly unmanned so that addition would cause less stir since it would actually behave realistically and not be blatantly favoured like the current BMPT.

In any case, people have PTSD.
