Did Gaijin Fix the Worse BR in War Thunder? - T-72A

[@ricolives1166]

Thing about War Thunder over the last few years is almost every game is a full 1.0 up. Almost. Every. Game.

[@LastGoatKnight]

Japan has that curse as well

[@handsomeivan1980]

I literally recorded how many uptiers and downtiers over 500 matches last year Only 32 were downtiers I tried all BR's in GRB

[@ricolives1166]

@handsomeivan1980 its the same thing in arcade and realistic. However I don't play sim so I don't know. But for air and ground. Naval doesn't count cuz the max br is what 7.0? 7s will see 5.0s

[@Nacjotyp]

You are wrong.

[@Tekonic.]

This is why I usually play top tier

[@LN_997]

9.3 still feels like a black hole of constant uptiers sadly

[@mufinsp0]

The Leopard2a4 were the worst,the soviets are not so bad

[@davidmay9956]

Same sadly.

[@DALONEWOLF108]

Dude for real I’m like oh wow br changes no 2s38 next ten games straight up tiers and Abram’s at 10.3-10.7 and that’s all I get

[@thatoneguy1741]

Guess it’s a different story for us minor nation mains cause 9.0 9.3 China, Italy, and France have been amazing

[@DALONEWOLF108]

@@thatoneguy1741 nah France has been hell lmao I went to 9.3 to test this out for 5 matches and same bs

[@ougioshino6940]

At this rate maybe by 2030 the game will finally be decompressed🥰

[@richardshade7052]

The T-72M1 for germany is one of my favorite tanks to play and now the 9.3 br feels so much better. Im having mostly good games now lol. As for the 3BM22 round I dont really have any issues with it, 3BM15 worked fine as well. Also the ZTZ96 is now another one of my favorites. Better mobility and better round with slightly less armor.

[@nicktasteless360]

Same for me, the Kpz is a game changer for me. German tanks at 9.3 also have stabilisers which is a big deal.

[@raiden5176]

4:45 poor bastard exploded 💀

[@johncmcham]

personally with the T72A being one of my top performing tanks, 3BM22 is adequate at 9.3. while post pen can get gaijined, it can pen most things up and down the bracket. It's absolutely abysmal at 10.3+ and i would know since it had to be the main dart on my T72B for a long while until i made it to 3BM42 since it'll have to face tanks that can bounce it with relative ease.

[@Tsirkon]

Bro i was at 8.0 and i had to fcking fight along with a T-72.

[@katyushatman5187]

when t-72 face the vehicles its supposed to face against its good but not overpowered, a normal leopard1 with apds easily one shot it even frontaly (not effortlessly pen the UFP but through weak spots), also mobility and reload speed still a weakening point of t-72 so its balance out the vehicle

[@黄辰旭]

9.3&9.7 is playable right now, at least for soviet light tank lineup, south africa and french.

[@vympel69420]

I just think balancing is very hard for some tanks, take for example the centurion mk.3, you're slow as a heavy, armored like a light tank, and hit like medium. You have apds (bad) that fires fast and is stabilized (good) at 6.7 you would (and used to) just lolpen stuff from the front, at 7.7 you do fine, but at 8.7 you're basically useless.

[@alihasanabdullah7586]

By your metric, 12.0 GRB is the best BR in WT because it's impossible to get uptiered, but you might get some occasional downtiers.

[@DawgIVLife]

Its still possible to get a uptier because of CAS at 12.0 12.7 is still the highest ground BR even with no tanks past 12.0

[@Star_Spangled_Man_With_A_Plan]

Are you implying that a different metric would be superior?

[@milowannebo-sorensen1776]

the XM800T going up to 8.0 is great because its only downside is that it can only pen king tigers in the back of the turret ring, and its very inconsistant. now it cant see king tigers.

[@obeyobay9146]

Side note: Tiger 2 h should go to 7.0

[@ronaldmcreagann6343]

Yeah, it’s lowkey a buff, not a nerf as youll see far more lighter vehicles like Leo 1s and such

[@KekusMagnus]

@@obeyobay9146 Only if all the HEATFS slingers go up to 8.0

[@trentenidk8431]

@@obeyobay9146the way the game is currently? No. If that range is decompressed a bit? Sur maybe

[@milowannebo-sorensen1776]

plus its not at 7.7 now which is the worst br ever in terms of uptiers and downtiers its constant down tier and constant uptier, now that its at 8.0 its more consistant

[@katforce3931]

3bm42 is long rod apfsds so it has more spawling, the others like 3bm22 arent. you can tell by the stat card; if the shell is a weird diamond shape then it means its the bad kind of apfsds

[@dougthrower9750]

BR fix needs to happen in the lower tiers. Hate playing a 30's tank and get wacked by a 50's tank.

[@KekusMagnus]

It's too late for that. Gaijin willingly added garbage cold war tanks to low tiers knowing they would never be able to balance them without glaring historical innacuracies. They need to split WW2 into its own separate game (just like they are now splitting air sim into a separate game) because warthunder WW2 is beyond saving, it has been completely ruined since the introduction of Sweden and Israel

[@TheUmdexMan]

Sweden: 👀

[@Rey-vm9it]

bro, the m60 120s sufferes insanely when it comes to mobility and armor... the funny thing is they put it from 10.0 to 10.3... same goes for the M1128 its mobility is very sluggish for a wheeled vehicle and it doesnt have its actual gun depression...

[@Bright_Stranger]

Strykers now have adjustable suspension to help out with gun depression

On Normandy I'm actually someone who spawns for C and looks at the exact spot you gone to after spawn

[@nicktasteless360]

i usually hang around f3 and get lots of kills due hull down position.

[@kaidown5941]

And now 8.3 8.7 is **** i got up tier 8/10 game. before that MM it nomal

[@MellyMelly7]

what 9.3 felt like before the br decompression: (I just want) ONE DOWNTIER (one downtier), I don't know why I bought a 9.3 tank with no stock apfsds keep that in mind, it's meant to compete in a uptier That's all I know (know) I CRIED SO HARD FOR A DOWNTIER BUT IN THE END, 9.3 JUST GETS NO DOWNTIERS.🎶

[@DawgIVLife]

Yea the stock APFSDS rules need to change cause you have some 12.0 vehicles that are rank 7 and stuck with stock heat yet they are top tier.

[@Hiremedax]

Chester didn't die for this😭

[@alexmaximus9134]

With the T-64A and the T-72A, i found that using the HE shell and going for overpressure spots is more reliable than using the weak APFSDS they have. If you hit the spot, it insta-kills the enemy, and you also one-shot light tanks as well. And it does have decent velocity to not be THAT painful to aim. Plus, the HE shell is stock, meaning you do not need to grind for it, and it also saves up on SL in the long run from having to spend SL on ammo after the match.

[@wyattm3292]

10.0 was a decent middle ground now it's fucked

[@schwarzwei23]

I used to play War thunder when there were only planes in the game and stopped playing until i saw some videos a few months back and was tired of playin squad, so i thought to myself lets try the grind bought premium acc good stuff lots of fun.. and about 2 weeks ago i happily arrived at 9.3 having enjoyed the tam just at 8.7 to the fullest AND NOW YOU HAVE THE AUDACITY TO MAKE THIS VERY VIDEO. Nice job tho good video =).

[@chickensya]

5:25 the shit gaijin needs to fix, that miss could have gotten you killed and you had advantage

[@auricoleo3944]

I was planning on grinding Russian tech tree but after watching T-72A suffers from gun depression and reverse speed, I reconsidered ...

[@russman3787]

Second game is a perfect demonstration of how awful the TAM is to fight

[@johnroscoe2406]

They moved up my beloved PT-16 :(

[@revan22]

Idk how the T-72 was ever bad. The T72M1 I got in Germany tech tree was really a breath of fresh air. Good armor, good mobility, good shell. 440mm flat pen at 9.3 is insane. 60 kph is decent, armor finally allows you to tank ifvs and spaa shells. Easily the best 9.3 tank in the German tech tree for me, having on top of it a great lineup with kpz, bagel, 1a5 and gepard.

[@DawgIVLife]

The only reason I don’t prefer it is that it has no reverse speed in a BR that was pumped up with very high preforming shells because they use to face 10.0 and 10.3 MBTs it’s the only reason why all of the magachs had DM63 and leopards having DM33 both of those shells can slice through the T72A like butter, and not being able to reverse the only good playstyle is brawling.

[@shikikanaz4624]

Ztz96 is so underrated. Its a less armoured t72 but actaully has decent reverse and a way better shell

[@Krahamus]

Better rotation speed also

[@juntingiee2602]

FYM negatively impacted the TAM's? The TAM's were EXTREMELY overpowered for its tier

[@DawgIVLife]

Yup which is why a BR increase hurt them, was it needed yes.

[@mingxuanzhang98]

Sea Vixen move to 9.0 in RB is crazy, it has no guns and they just reduce the G pull for Red Tops. What it really should be at is 8.3, if it has to be 9.0 then give Red Top short range all aspect.

[@barronhelmutschnitzelnazi2188]

Yea have no idea why it went 9.0, especially for GRB. It can't even kill helis since it can't lock on them.

[@gamergumilyov8579]

The Rooikat 105 got moved up to 9.7 so the combo of that and the Khalid is gone

[@el_shmuel]

They should've kept that 9.3 duo.

8.3 already suffers from uptiers. 8.0 to 11.0 is constant uptiers. Especially painful for Germany since no stab until 9.0

yeah, but the idiots playing that br have not noticed yet, when I asked they all said it was still full uptiers, lo and behold, it was perfectly fine I had to drop down brs because my mbt 70 was stock, now I can finally play it again
