It just doesn’t have any tracers in the belt.
And it’s not OP, it’s shells are so slow, and the flash from the guns is so bright you know when it’s shooting at you, and you can easily dodge.
Only people who are too close or flying in a straight line didn’t that thing.
It’s also one of the few spaa’s that struggles to kill ground vehicles.
GG Rapier, you weren’t great but now you’re worthless.
And also the new 9.7 lineup AGAIN doesn’t have a goddamn SPAA. We didn’t have one when it was 9.3 and now that its 9.7 they removed the ONE SPAA we could’ve had.
I wasn’t about to argue with you. I think 12.3 was fine, but not arguing the vehicles performance. I like the abrams, but I have been grinding UK 10.7 (now 11.0) so I know the abrams are light years ahead of them.
That said, I don’t think they would have been OP at 12.3 as even at 12.7 they’re still seeing almost ALL the stuff they saw at 12.0. You’re 11.3’s all got bumped to 11.7 (with some exceptions) or higher so they’re still going to encounter the exact same enemy.
So the irony is that pretty much nothing changed. The thing that got decompressed was 9.0-10.7. The 11.0+ are still mostly encountering the same enemies. The only shady thing is the BMPT now being unable to face the APS tanks that neutered it’s atgms.
If anything, this “decompression” undid a lot of changes at that 9.0/10.0 br where t80s and 72s were moved away from lighter vehicles. 2s38 is back to chomping on the light tanks it shredded for a minute before being bumped, and the early t series are doing the same thing. They should have bumped GRB to 14.0 and really did actual decomp from 9.0-14.0.
This is br change stuff was basically smoke and mirrors and didn’t massively alter top tier (except for air and helis)
I don’t understand why Merkava Mk.4M is still the same Top BR as the 2A7s… when it’s a 2 BR lower worthy tank (like B and LIC) with Trophy.
Do the developers REALLY believe that Trophy alone is enough to warrant a 12.7 tank being thrown into 13.3, even though, until now, they claimed that they should be the same BR because they are functionally the same…?
Why are the MiG-27s different BRs for Ground, dont they have the same loadouts? Weird if its only the optics that make them a different BR, as it is possible to use the optics on the missiles
Which in corporate speak refers to a limited sample of feedback while the main deciding factors are not going to be discussed. Could be future decomp and plannned vehicles editions, or other changes they can’t speak to.
Or more gaijin trying to make the grind harder by punishing vehicles that people farmed for SL (usually higher skill players).
Otherwise, they’d modify silver lion multipliers and use good statistics to decide BR placements.
To clarify, when I say good statistics they SHOULD be balancing based on the average player’s experience given thats the majority of their player base. They’d do this by removing the statistical outliers at either end of the skill curve and averaging the core group. But they don’t.
