If other SPAAs and LDIRCM was modeled correctly, I wouldn’t really have that many complaints of the new Pantsir being added however since this is not the case, this is one of the only SPAAs that can effectively counter helicopters, especially low flying ones (where proximity fuzes don’t really work).
Oh yeah, you see. Since Russian light tanks have virtually no armor the NATO ones can’t have it either. NATO stuff is just big and heavy because NATO engineers are bad not because they add armor and care about crew survivability.
Agreed, don’t like premiums or having to gpay GE for event vehicles? Save the money for an actual full game. This and leaving an honest review. Because we saw their response when that happened lol
The explanation is simple:
Russian CAS with Kh-38s is brain-dead easy to play
Russian players get used to ‘easy mode.’
Meanwhile, NATO players, who’ve spent their whole lives fighting Pants1rs and Kh-38s, actually developed some skills.
A Russian player, accustomed to an easy ride, hops into a BUK and loses to a skilled NATO CAS pilot.
The BUK’s stats drop below NATO AA,
So the devs see this and introduce the Smsv.
