Serious Balance Issues with Russian Vehicles in War Thunder

I’ve got about an hour before my lunch break and finished all my work tasks for today so why not

Or italy

right right you are also one of those people that claims 2S38 can penetrate your mbt front (aside from abrams)

It’s a minor detail on a tank I don’t play seriously
More important here is my ability to admit when I’m wrong instead of plugging my ears and playing semantics (stinger average etc) because I only care about what’s true

Nothing more objective than stats and those are clearly irrelevant to you, again with only being concerned with appearance. yawn

Nope. They were decent and like I said 9Ls more than made up for the difference compared to R60M.
Situation is reversed today, 120 is king, R77 are “waaaah horrible” (actually not that bad) but R73s are better than 9Ms, making up for it at short range. All is well, except if you’re a weird fanatic of course.

2A6 were not better than russian tanks and even most russian mains recognized that. The protection also still isn’t as great as the T80s except maybe in your mind. Reverse speed is a downside but not crippling on a press W tank, not as much as bigger weakpoints. But ofc gluttons want it all.

Again armor is the most important trait in this game. Especially in CQC. Bounce one round and reload becomes irrelevant. Even enemy armor is less relevant since you can negate it by having all the time you want to aim.

Not enough and dude stable canon on 8.3?
And mobility isnt bad

What has the 2s38 got anything to do with it you muppet, driving ammo racks anyway nothing too scary (should go to 11.0 though)

Yeah aim weak spot on them is hard i get it when you never had to do because most of enemy entire hull is green except them as you guy never like when enemy have same level of armor maybe start doing the same thing everyone doing to Russia for yeah “Aim weak spot” it might help you.

Seriously bro? France and Japan. lol

Why did he try and sneak france onto that list lol

CAS capabilities aren’t the same between top tier and ~9.0 though. When a single plane can take out 6 MBTs in a single “pass”, an AA being deficient or overpowered has more of an impact than when it can only take out one or two.

I’ve played every top tier outside of China, Japan, Italy and Israel. My list is:

  1. Leopard 2A7V/Strv 122B+/Leopard 2A7HU
  2. Type 10
  3. Leclerc
  4. Abrams
  5. Merkava
  6. Chally 2E
  7. T-80BVM/T-90M
  8. ZTZ99A

Ohh bro this is so wrong there is no way u think merkava is better then the t series

5 second reload + better shell + 1:1 reverse gear + fast forward than the T-90M

If the Merkava had the 6 second reload still I’d say it’s worse

Challenger 2E better than BVM lol
What on earth is this guy thinking?

well dont ask me ask that guy over there he has been coming up with some claims. how powerful 2S38, but he never actually played one. the only source for his claims are stats card and not real battle performance. yes i have played 2S38 and what i can say it is not actually OP just a somewhat decent tank. it is not as bad as M1128 but it is not as good as CV9040

It looks better

So you have a game where Russia is forced to play short range while being hard lost against the eurofighter and Rafael and having to sweat to win against f15 e while having much better ir missles

Peper armor big profile even light tank can oen u easily
U need to play merkava like a light tank to do well even russian rounds can pen the turret
Its very fun tank but far from being good i will say the ariete is might be better after it got dm 53

Ranking tanks is so pointless lol, might as well rank them on looks. The way they’ll perform will depend on what they face, and since GRB teams are not random, it doesn’t matter whether for example 2A7/122 is better or worse than BVM since they’re almost always together lmao. Tells me all I need to know in my Leclerc/Ariete/Abrams

R77 and Mica are pretty evenly matched at short range and 120 doesn’t ‘hard lose’ the Flanker. Force the fight closer where you have the advantage (ik you disagree but that’s just my opinion). Surviving to the merge in a 1v1 isn’t difficult
