The hstv-l is good but the round does almost zero spalling in my experience resulting in 2-3 shots for most mbts. Even if you get a perfect shot that you know would 100% be 1 shot in an mbt the bad round requires you to put 2 more shots if your not lucky.
Sorry if i wrote this weird, kinda in a hurry
Oh and XM885 should be equal to M774
Same M900 as the IPM1.
So you end up with a light tank that has similar or worse firepower than the IPM1 (depends on the reload they give it), worse mobility than the IPM1 and worse armor than the IPM1.
So it would only win out in optics and scouting.
Abrams is the second or third best tank in the game, so its not exactly like the US needs a better MBT at this time. That being said. With the decompression we’ll likely see everyone get new top tier MBTs in the near future
you keep coping this every time (without ever having touched any MBTs outside of the british tree).
No, the US should get a 2A7/122 counterpart just like other nations.
Soft-kill and useless for the BR
The problem with their tanks is they are NOT GOOD FOR THE AVERAGE PLAYER. Emphasis on AVERAGE
Good therms 5 sec reload good round good motility what else can you ask for?
all the things you said will only be good if it’s max 11.0. 11.3+ all these things will be mid on the M10, even mediocre maybe.
Also the reload is heavily dependent on what Gaijin gives it.
Ye 11.0 would prolly be max but atleast another light tank to pair with the M1A1/IPM1 thats not the Stryker or M3A3.
But still the Stryker is still rly good I just wish they gave it its 5 sec reload.
Larger maps, that’s it. US MBTs struggle in Small maps because it heavily relies on protection rather than speed, ROF, and gun depression.
The Abrams excel in large maps because it’s mobility, ROF and gun depression can be used to its full potential. Its why Russian mbts despite having worse ROF, reverse speed and gun performance, do really well in small maps. Their protection is good.
The us also needs a better SACLOS spaa to counter ldircm helis
The US also needs better teammate
Make Pradesh a Top Tier map and perfect.
The players are the problem, half of them are noobs who bought their way there and have less braincells than your average reserve tank player.
If people knew how to play the vehicles they’d do a lot better but the amount of people who rush without thinking makes me so sad because they blame the vehicle instead of themselves for not playing to their tanks playstyle.
Imo id be nice to get some hull armor but it wont matter given the amount of noobs who flock to the abrams without actually learning how to play at that BR.
in 2023-2024 sure, but it’s not that easy to use that excuse anymore.
Idk i tried playing 12.7 yesterday and today and i watched my team skip objectives run to enemy spawn die and 1 death leave. They could’ve played smart like myself and a few Type 90’s but thats not what happened.
The thing is at least from my experience, German teams have become considerably worse. Like 2024 prime US wallet warrior teams levels of bad.
Then again German winrates have also been incredibly low.
Its both lmao, i hate having either on my team lol
The only nation that you want on your team is Russia and France.
Kinda true, even the premium only players on Russia have a full lineup lol
Ye lol.
I’m also wondering if I should buy the Su-25K to pair with my TURMS for 23$.
But still 10.3 Russia is cracked with their lineup.
