BMP-3 could go to 9.3 and it’d be just fine. Be grateful it didn’t get the full BR raising it actually deserves.

The issue is that the other way to balance is based on how the devs feel. We have seen how that works.
I do noticed that recently they added several features which I believed it weren’t there before, the T-55AMD can now replenish its APS charges at the objective points, and then it also has some kind of warning system like the LWS.

Because Russia has lots of OP vehicles.

US has lots of OP vehicles and we don’t see same level of complaining.
That’s because the U.S. does infact not have lots of OP vehicles.

It fell victim to its own trick, powercreep.

So because Soviet vehicles are correctly BR’d and a tiny amount are over-BR’d that means Russian favoritism about a Soviet tech tree? lol
The BMP-3 is 9.0 because its equal [Type 89] is 9.0, it’s really that simple and if you look at all their tanks it’ll be the equals are at an equal or lower BR if equals exist at or near its BR.
Some vehicles have no equals at its BR due to rarity of the vehicle type [HSTVL, Sea Vixen, etc.]
@WARTURTLE09
T-55AM-1 moving up would make sense if its equals weren’t all 8.7 still. Every 9.0 in the game are better than the T-55AM-1. XD
Strv 103C is not an IFV and can’t be compared to BMP3.

That’s why you should exclusively use the 100 mm gun, as I do, the 30 mm autocannon is just a secondary weapon, accurately speaking the autocannon is a coaxial gun, I prefer use the BMP-3 as a tank destroyer,
As you mentioned the positive point about the hydropneumatic suspension control, it offers unmatched capabilities to counter the terrible firepower it has.
Get behind a soft hill where you tank is completely covered by the terrain, take a good distance, set to select secondary weapons, rangefinder using the binoculars, and toss a HE into the enemy.
If the map is favourable, keep the distance using the BMP-3, if not, get behind or ambush, the missile amount is decent but the reload time is terrible for quickly engagements.
That’s why I like the BMP-3, it’s not the best but it certainly offer a fun gameplay in some sort of way.

As I mentioned earlier, the BMP-3 is weak armor speaking, the only thing it has in comparison to the Type 89 IFV is the mobility which both shares decent values, but the Type 89 IFV carries a punchier 35 mm autocannon with far better values where the ATGMs doesn’t even matter.
In one hand one is better at long distances the other performs better in the complete opposite position. They have two contraditory application yet the same roles, one causes better damage closer it can get and the other reserving itself from damage at distance.
I am grateful to the devs for not listening you

because its a high skill floor vehicle, it requires a brain to be really effective in. noobs are tanking its stats hard.
people its not a mbt.

seems common
Typical ignorant and biased US main. Go look at the US tech tree objectively, and you will realize many tanks are OP, just like USSR tree.

Buddy, if you are struggling against American tanks then you have an extreme case of skill issue.

-M22?

-M4A1 76 W?
-5.7 Jumbo
-T34

-120S???
And that’s quite about it. Not many in my books, in fact less than 10, and there’s arguably some of them not that OP.
name one
Jumbo, M4, and M4A1 (after the BR change) honestly don’t even come close to being overpowered
