I’ve tested 10.3 out. This thing is pretty busted, the only saving grace is that they push too far in and get overwhelmed EVENTUALLY by enough volume of return fire.
This is actually worse the 2S38. Which i fully admit I own (just don’t play russia much - but it was fun to use).
Playing thr bradley, the xm8, the m1128, the m60-2000, and just about anything lower than a regular MBT feels bad. Xm803 and mbt70s get lol penned because it can pixel hunt, and barrel/track eating is lightning fast. At least when tigers have it happen the have to wait for a reload shot from shermans before also getting tracked.
They deactivated the Ammo detonation if i have read the datamines correctly,
in ohter words, it was possible to detonate the ATGMs and kill it with the blast, but they changed it to “invincible”
BTW, also in RL, the Modules are much more fragile and bigger then ingame.
One 3kg HE in the Turret would probably destroy every module and make stuff bend and crack. But ingame thats not part of the game, i mean u cant even destroy armor all togehter… which makes especially these kinds of vehicles absurdly different to reality
At the end it was never designed to be capable to fire back when it got hit, it was supposed to make the crew survive, same story as armata. But agian, ingame armor dosnt degrade, bent or whatever and modules are small.
Just as example, the joints and stuff on the bmpt are exposed, one shot in the area and its so badly damaged it would stop working, same with all the motors that ingame dont even have a powersource, its wirelessly powered by invisible cables and hydraulics. Or look at the belts, they magically go into the barrel while being only modeled to the joint,
or look at the modules itself, they are not even at the correct position or have the correct size.
Which is sad… and should be fixed but i get that not everything can be part of the game. U can clearly see that the “module” mechanic is much bigger in reality that this little piece that gaijin modeled as model. In gaijins world it was completely unnecessary to make the physical encasing of the “module” so big, but in realitly the whole turred is packet to the top wiht electronics, mechanics, motors… and any hit in there would make it incapable of properly fighting back.
But some stuff is real stupid… i mean cmon… why is the “encasing of the beld” of the lav counted as ammo and the bmpt dosnt even have a beld modelet that can be hit? Or what is with the HSTV-L turred ring or autoloader? Since when is the radio on top of the autoloader part of the autoloader or the metal protection sheet unter the turret ring a part of the turret ring?
“a bug” that when 4,5 KG of Explosives explode it would damage or kill then vehicle… what kind of bug is that?
Its then also a “bug” when a russian soldier dies on the first 120mm Dart it hits in the face or what?
They need to remove it from the game. Or put it at 14.0 lol
The premium one ate 5 m829a1 shells at close range that were at angles that kill any high br t series. This thing is beyooooond OP. Its the most oay to win thing ive seen in gaming and I have been doing thsi a while.
Yeah, the ERA makes it immune to shells unless you get lucky and hit a pixel sized target. So it either needs to be facing top tier shells or it needs all the ERA removed
Not only that. But with the spall liner. The fuel tanks, the grenade ammo that doesnt blow up the tank or hurt anyone in the tank… i checked the after action report and shells just… evaporate without hitting anything?
At this point. I think they’re getting paid by russia to A. Collect classified docs and B. To troll western players because why not.
I mean, its so powerful as is it could be 11.3/11.7 and still be competitive. It can do AA, anti light everything, shreds side armor due to RoF and can pixel hunt mbts quickly from the front or slight angles.
It has no issue breaking barrels or tracks quickly.
If it gets darts it needs to be 12.7
And it will obliterate the Hstvl - and that will get forced down so russia can complain about that again.
Besides, if they can ruin 9.3 and 10.3 without darts and test it, they can stick that sucker at 11.3 without yall crying about it for testing.
If it does suck there it can get darts. But yall got the most busted lineup of all premiums at 10.3 and every single match right now is a death ball of russian vehicles rushing one point and then the spawn.
No, I am not wrong. Go play your next 40 games against it and tell me otherwise. It punches through the abrams turret ring no problem at 10.7. It shouldnt be facing 10.3 ever.
I know you have US to at least 9.3, so try it out. Subject yourself to the same stuff the rest of us are dealing with.
