I just noticed recently that they even get M829A2 and still aren’t able to help them
“at all”
They unironically need to give better armor to Click-Bait alongside even better ammo than M829A2 to make those ODL players usable in a match.
It’s sad seeing top tier being ruined by ODL wallet warriors just like 9.3 / 10.3 has been for a while now.
Oops I forgot lol. Still an overall good tank.
The m829a1 could already pen most tanks. M829a2 really doesn’t change anything and doesn’t fix the Abrams’s greatest weakness, its massive turret ring which should be volumetric and not 50mm CHA. It should be like 200-300mm CHA.
The M1s are still a good tank overall though and most of the skill issue for the US comes from the endless hordes of premium players.
I would said that you would have to change your play style since you wouldn’t play against 8.7-9.0+ BR as much as before.
Plus when you got uptier there 90% change that enemy team going to have some vehicles that can lol-pen your UFP. At that point you would have to treat T-80B like a light tanks.
At least It got good enough Fire power + Thermal and good mobility to work around.
But good luck when majority of maps are somethings like Cargo port , Advance to the Rhine , etc
Also this decompression only apply to 8.7-9.7 Since it was majority of 10.3 that are move up.
