SPAA's at BR8 are AT-machineguns

I am currently grinding my way down the french tier, currently at 8.3, which became a nightmare.
After really enjoying the playstyle of the AMX-10 and the AMX-40, i was really looking forward to the AMX-30 tanks. But things took a turn…

I don’t know how, I don’t know why, but playing at this tier just puts you against SPAA’s who mow you down like paper. I have been killed so many times by SPAA that I can’t even keep track. When I do get the first shot, it feels like it doesn’t matter as the first salvo will just instakill me.

Why are these SPAA’s soo good against tanks? It almost feel like a comedyshow where I brawl with a Mouse for a few minutes, but then the Gepard just has to look at you and you die… Am I the only one feeling that the SPAA’s shouldn’t be this strong against ground targets?

I understand your concerns and I wonder why such things happens…

These anti-air systems could just work fine as anti-tank vehicles if their damage models worked as such. XM-246 is the best example of broken damage model that absorves spall and damage over all in trade for a few repairable non-critical modules and one crew member.

Haha lmao today I jus killed 2 times an amx30 player with the zsu 23 4. One of em frontally another from the side.

Its france problem for making weak armor tanks. Even a ww2 tank can kill it.

AMX-30s are paper-ish, especially the turret.
I’ve been killed through turret front by Turm III’s autocannon, it’s that bad.

AAs with APHE rounds just nuking whole tanks with a single shell shouldn’t be a thing in this game if you ask me.
