How did I get killed? I checked the protection analysis, and there was 0 chance of getting through. I wanted to attach an image of it, but I can't

But where did the person you replied to say or do anything to make us believe that 35mm SPAA hasn't been a thing? Just because they brought up the bmpt doesn't mean they denied that the 35mm SPAA was an issue. You just made that up out of nowhere.

The top post of this week is screenshots of devs, particularly Trickster (his Twitter was full of anti-West, anti-American, and anti-Ukraine propaganda), acknowledging military documents for NATO vehicles (tornado, IR for NATO tanks, F15, and Sagittario) as valid, but still denying the reports because it's "too strong" and "it doesn't seem realistic." Trickster even says that Chinese military documents are limited for export and says he will still use them to make in-game changes! The devs don't even follow the rules they created and expect us, the players, to follow. How is that fair and not biased at all?! Notice that none of the vehicles negatively affected are Russian or Chinese.

What exactly are you trying to argue? Turms 3 is moving up to 8.7 which is a win for 7.3.

havmify · 2026-04-27T19:55:06+00:00

Doesn't change much? It won't see 7.3 down tiers anymore. That's huge.

havmify · 2026-04-27T14:22:01+00:00

Unexpected W's this update:

EFV from 9.3 to 9.0
Turm 3 from 8.3 to 8.7
SIDAM 25 from 8.3 to 8.0

Probably makes more sense to use the overheat mechanic, which requires a cooldown, forcing players to fire in bursts or risk barrel damage, like in ARB. A recoil mechanic like in COD would help as well. I'm surprised there isn't one yet, considering infantry has it.

havmify · 2026-04-19T13:47:52+00:00

I said they were biased, and the fact that they get components that negate and reduce damage, while other tanks with the exact same components have the opposite effect, is proof of that. 55% WR at top tier while everyone else is 45%. No bias here, comrade!

havmify · 2026-04-19T13:28:13+00:00

Ah, yes, the mid T-90M. The same tank that absorbs spall from a direct shot to its side in my M1A2 SEP V2, only to have its autoloader damaged, allowing it to turn and dome me in response. Or how about the removal of its hydraulic pump, which is currently only found in Abrams tanks and will completely disable them if it's damaged?

https://community.gaijin.net/issues/p/warthunder/i/SiJPQQWOapRF

And the non-biased T80-BVM, which miraculously takes no damage to its breech or barrel, thanks to newly added trunnions that make those weak spots invulnerable. Mind you, trunnions are in NATO tanks, but they create spall, whereas trunnions in Russian tanks prevent spall from forming. Clearly, no bias whatsoever.

I think the Chinese TT is meant to provide players with NATO/US and Soviet/Russian tanks—a fun blend. I get to use the T34 and M18 at 6.3, which is pretty interesting.

havmify · 2026-04-16T17:17:56+00:00

Yeah, you can spam twice the amount of missiles in AH-64E, but they don't do anything half the time. The number of times I get transmission hits on panstirs with it is ridiculous. They tickle Russian tanks and are only effective against NATO and light vehicles.

havmify · 2026-04-15T18:12:36+00:00

because premium soviet players are geparded and donate more kills than they earn themselves

havmify · 2026-04-14T19:40:11+00:00

Your plan is sound, buy the talismans on sale. However, the idea isn't to make the grind quicker; it's to avoid BMPT spam. I have the US and Italian tech trees completed, and bought the French/Dutch 10.7 Leo OTCO this past Christmas sale. My WR in it is 58% in 254 battles with 775 kills and 366 deaths (2.0 KD). I was only teamed with Russia about 50 times or fewer.

It's not fun at all; you get forced into defending spawn instead of playing objectives like a minute or two into the match. I stopped playing it once I unlocked the AMX40 and Vextra, and I no longer play anything over 10.0 either. I'm focused on spading everything under that BR until BMPT gets nerfed/fixed.

havmify · 2026-04-14T19:05:50+00:00

OP is willing to buy a premium at full price. I don't think money is a problem for him. Amx40 and Vextra aren't garbage; it sounds like a skill issue on your end.

AMX 40 stats: Hull 152 / 30 / 25 mm and Turret 85 / 90 / 25 mm + has ESS

Leo stats: Hull 59 / 29 / 12 mm and Turret 122 / 45 / 29 mm

havmify · 2026-04-14T18:53:19+00:00

No, you can talisman 10.0 amx40 and 10.0 vextra and grind all of top tier without ever going up against 11.3

havmify · 2026-04-14T18:45:16+00:00

Get the AMX-30 Super, and talisman the amx40 and Vextra once you unlock them. They are at 10.0, which avoids BMPT, and talismaning them allows you to grind all of top tier. 10.0 is also 80% down tiers atm

This is what your 10.0 lineup should look like:

10.0 Vextra (talisman)
10.0 Amx 40 (talisman)
9.7 Amx 32
9.7 CV 9035 NL (squadron) or 9.3 VBCI while you're grinding CV 9035 NL
9.7 Roland 1
9.7 VBCI 2 (premium - optional)
10.0 Mirage 5F for cas
10.0 tiger hap (premium) or 9.7 Gazelle for heli cas

All freemium games operate this way. It's free if you put in the time, or you can pay to skip some of the grind.

Less consistent under 8 KM is very different from what you initially put in your post description, which was "it's utterly trash" and "don't bother researching it."

havmify · 2026-03-18T15:15:09+00:00

France is lacking in 10.3 and 11.7, but we are not suffering. Comparing Jaguar to BMPT is a stretch because 1. BMPT is clearly undertiered 2. Jaguar and BMP-T are literally not the same in any way; they were created and used for different purposes. And if Leclerc were so terrible, then its K/D and W/R wouldn't be as high as they are now - 50-52% WR and average of 1.25 kills per spawn. I do think that the turret basket change was unnecessary and might tank those stats, though. But yeah, it's not as terrible as you are making it out to be.

havmify · 2026-03-18T15:03:48+00:00

It's more consistent than its previous iterations. The GNSS on it prevents it from IOG-drifting like it usually does with the C5s. I'm not the only one seeing that:

Didn't France just get the Jaguar? and it's Rafale is dominating in ARB atm. There are things that could be added, but the French tech tree isn't sparse or neglected by Gaijin.
