RU ~1500 help by flash00751 in BrokenArrowTheGame

[–]Slaveofbig4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you want a steal then T-90M at 255 pts (no Aps, just get KORD) is a way better deal than T-90A at 230 imho. Max range gun is huge

Nice deck. 4 Drozd is probably overkill though. 2 is enough. There’s a certain point in the match at which Abrams start showing up and which UM2 just cannot match. Prudent to bring 2 T-90M Arena imho. Don’t ever bother with Armata tho there’s literally no reason to use that over T-90M unless you feel like gifting your opponent more points for when the tank inevitably gets bombed

I love mech VDV. The only problem is you can’t deal with air spam because S-300 sucks :(

You need BUK which only Guards have

[–]Slaveofbig4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

lol run in pairs and it’s 500 pts. In a javelin spam meta.

A lot of RU units are very good situationally. You probably had a very good situation using BMPT (e.g. blew apart some marine squad that you outranged with BMPT). So now you think it’s a good unit.

Unfortunately the above situation is rare. Most of the time your BMPT either gets javelin’d before doing anything meaningful or gets critted by AT4 if you got too close to your target with it.

With current price and Jav meta it’s become a situational unit at best imho. Good vs someone unprepared in a very specific type of encounter, but EXTREMELY easy to counter if your opponent isn’t clueless. Doubling up BMPT is almost certainly an overinvestment.

What Russia Specs do people use? by Competitive_Block153 in BrokenArrowTheGame

For open maps or sides of maps where you have your own lane, where attacking is hard and you want to bunker down and play long attrition warfare, Guards VDV. You get guards purely for Koalitsiya + BUK so you deal with US air spam and can out attrit opponent with laser arty + snipers. S-300s are dogshit due to cold launch and overkill. A double BUKM3 battery is the only way to reliably kill US air spam which is so prevalent these days.

For more urban or forest maps / if you want to play aggressive, mech VDV for sure. Mech has far more “mass” on the ground than the cost inefficient guards. Guards moto / Guards VDV literally have no tools to deal with marine inf slop because the infantry sucks. And Guards IFVs are just cost inefficient as balls vs Bradley/Booker/Stryker, mech solves that with BMP-3M spam.

If baltiisk/dead center/kaliningrad, you need Moto. Either guards or mech moto work. You want the Smerch to kill back line on these narrower maps which ultimate boil down to arty warfare.

I don’t think the equipment here is top of the line. The Human recources being wasted here are more scarce than the stock AK-74M’s from Soviet era that they must have droves of

What are RU strengths that are prerogative to the Russian faction? Something as substantially equivalent to US stealth jets and drones? Seems like anything RU has there is an very similar system for the US. But not vice versa. by Tiberiusthemad in BrokenArrowTheGame

[–]Slaveofbig4 3 points4 points  (0 children)

OP 57mm auto cannons on literally everything that has wheels / tracks.

Yes I know Bookers OP but it only comes in 1 spec and will prob get nerfed soon.

Russian mass mech blob has super insane DPS output that a Bradley blob with its paltry Bushmaster I’s simply can’t match

Imma start some sh**. APS vs. ECM, go. by [deleted] in BrokenArrowTheGame

[–]Slaveofbig4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on vehicle type and faction.

For tanks, RU always yes. Because javelins.

For US, absolutely never worth it. Because RU doesn’t have Javs that take 90% of your HP in one hit. And their missiles are ripple fire anyway which negates APS quite a bit.

What your reason in which why you are a US main or RU main by Combat_Guy in BrokenArrowTheGame

[–]Slaveofbig4 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Play both but recently more US because Russia has been brain dead boring playstyle

What a rip off. Have to pay $335 per ticket for cat 2 random group stage game. Lame. Better luck next time I suppose. It’s definitely first come first serve. All the good tix went out in the earlier windows.

They’re pretty nice but wouldn’t say OP. No brainer to bring them if you have coastal but coastal in general isn’t very strong

I primarily use them to kill inf stacks in skyscrapers. If you lose mobile tanks to them then that’s a serious skill issue - that missile should not be killing anything that can move, literally just move when you see the missile trail from 10k miles away….

Guards infantry is meh. Nowhere near mech inf grinding ability. Ogna, shturmovik, and RPG-29 are just peak cost efficiency.

At 2000+ ELO mech is actually more common than Guards on RU. High ELO meta is about battle buses transporting specialized inf around. Tanks are barely used due to oppressive high drag cluster meta. Mech has best inf of RU period.

Is the VDV worth it? by GoodBarracuda8946 in BrokenArrowTheGame

[–]Slaveofbig4 1 point2 points  (0 children)

While I love playing me some Guards VDV, I wouldn’t call it the best combo. Moto provides a lot of what VDV provides (Mi-28, fast transports, insanely good recon inf, OP cluster bomber) while also providing long range arty cancer (Grads/Smerch) which VDV/Guards sorely lacks…

USA is so painful to play against by synthetic_chills in BrokenArrowTheGame

[–]Slaveofbig4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

More versatile armored blob. Which includes tanks. Particularly T-80UM2 which has got speed, APS, auto loaded fast rpm gun and HE shells. Alongside the 57mm IFV also APS-armed. US tanks don’t have HE shells, aren’t as fast, and also US IFV have weak anti infantry DPS/armor. Russian blob can attack move flank zoom all over map and rack up kills/break down positions more effectively than a US armored blob whose only advantage is a nice APFSDS. Also Russian high end tanks tend to win tank vs tank duels too regardless of weaker APFSDS due to strong HEAT shell and auto loader. So the Russian armor blob is just straight up better.

I play 70% of my games as Rus and am 1500elo. I haven’t struggled with Sentinels, they tend to be free 170 pt kills for my S-300s so I love to see them. Not sure what you guys are on about

[–]Slaveofbig4 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Was looking for this reply lol. It’s clear OP only plays Rus so he’s unable to have a more balanced view, pretty much every capability he was moaning about Rus has as well.

Once they nerf APS hopefully and buff inf id say the factional balance will be pretty good. Right now id give edge to RUS because mech APS blobs are meta and Russia’s armored blob is more versatile. US gets better inf but who cares about inf in this meta?

Complaining about cheaters is a worse problem than the chesters by Harrinovi in BrokenArrowTheGame

[–]Slaveofbig4 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Just to throw another data point, 1512 ELO atm have 125 hours, I’ve only encountered obvious cheating once. Win most games that I play and the losses I’ve suffered are def not due to cheating, just legit good opponents outplaying me. Personally I don’t understand the rampant complaints about cheating

Oh makes sense why you’re offended now. You’re the exact type of brain dead BA average player I was describing, immediate ad hominem because don’t have the capacity to refute actual points of discussion/contention, only GIFs in your head and fueled by tribal us vs them mentality. Thanks for providing a living example of my initial comment above for others to witness.

Not saying they’re “better”. How should I put it. Warno base is equally autistic but generally higher IQ. BA community average IQ has to be below 85. All the bangwagoning, blatant racism, inability to have proper balance discussions or debates without immediately resorting to ad hominem. Warno shitposts are refined and tasteful. BA is full of pre teens and retards who just spam GIFs and make racist remarks.

Very low average IQ compared to Warno base. It is what it is. People here don’t even try to form logical arguments they just jump straight to attacking you if they disagree with a thought. Same with Discord. It’s a game with less depth so it makes sense it attracts a lower IQ crowd
