As you mentioned it, give it BTA4 and you get a legit T-80BVM sidegrade with its advantages (better all-around and frontal armor + reverse gear) and disadvatanges (worse acceleration and thermals).
Even though this topic ain’t about M1s, it is still an interesting addition. Gameplay-wise the difference would be great, it is not exactly about getting an overall better tank but different gameplay under different circumstances. Like it is with VT-4.
In addition to owning the T84 BM Oplot, the Thai Army seems to have also customized and upgraded it, known as the T84 Super Oplot. I’m not sure how much difference there is between these two, but they seem to be two different models of T84M. You can find information about T84 Super Oplot in a previously approved suggestion. So will we have both T84 BM Oplot and T84 Super Oplot at the same time?
I think that’s the april fools suggestion lol.
cmiiw. :D
Ah, was that just an April Fool’s suggestion?lol
I thought it was true, so I tried to search for relevant information, but found nothing, and it even mentioned 2029, haha
Can we have T84 BM Optimus Prime?
Well, I already realized that it was a joke. I didn’t study it carefully before. The topic about it can come to an end.
fin.
I agree, the M1A2T should have already been added. I don’t see it bringing something so ridiculously strong that would cause it to not be put into the game.
It’s sad that the vt4 won’t be coming this update
Honestly, I really don’t think there’s anything wrong with adding the VT-4 to the Japanese tech tree. Back then, from the late WWII period onward, the Japanese line was stuffed with tons of American equipment, and we players even joked that it was “daddy saving the son.” Now stuffing some Chinese equipment in there just means they get another dad, and players get more variety to play with—it’s a win-win. It’s just that in our country, some wolf warriors are really dumb.
i dont get it tbh, the vt4a1 and thai vt4 whilst the same tank, theyre so different not even close in capability ingame.
End of the day it’s just a tank in a game. VT-4 would be nice, T-84 would also be nice. if we went by politics WT would probably be stuck in ww2 still
I come from a country that’s been invaded multiple times by Germany and ussr
So I get it
I had proposed already that the tank can be added another day
Maybe during Thai national day
As an event vehicle to make it clear and enforce the idea that it’s a Thai tank
Not Japanese
Yeah what you said is exactly the better plan to launch the vehicle, this time is just not a good time, and a heartbreaking time. I’m glad there are ppl like you treat these things evenly and calmly, ：）
Guys just a reminder that if we can avoid talking about politics or historical dates or issues even if calmly as it could still exacerbate the issue and we don’t want a re-run of what happened last time.
Talking about the T84 and VT4 is perfectly fine as what the topic is for!
VT-4 in Thai camo got so much aura, but the way Gaijin implemented the VT-4 camo model makes it almost impossible to get 100% accurate Thai camo since the ERA plates use the same texture 😩 — same with other Russian tanks with ERAs. Some skin creators made rotatable camo patterns to make a seamless pattern camo despite the duplicated texture issue, but I have no clue how to do that.
That does look really nice
Since Japan lacks a top-tier lineup that can compete with some countries like Germany or the USSR, I must admit that I’m pretty excited for the T-84 oplot and the VT-4. These are two tanks that will definitely be worth grinding and adding to the Japanese line.
Really tired of dying because of slow reverse speed, hopefully the oplot will be added to USSR tree.
