The Tank That Once Broke Top Tier

Some of you guys might not have played War Thunder long enough to remember it, but there was a brief period of time where the American M1 Abrams main battle tank absolutely wrecked balance at top tier. When the M1 was added, its main competitors were the German Leopard 2K and Russian T-64B. While powerful in their own right, these tanks were not as strong as the M1. The M1 was almost impossible to ammo rack thanks to the blowout panels in the bustle, it was the fastest MBT around, and it had decent armor. Nowadays, things are a bit different. The M1 can still do some damage, but it is outclassed by much more capable tanks. Its saving grace is that it often gets downtiers against T-72 TURMS players.

I love the Abrams tanks, it just really sucks how Gaijin has not given us a newer one then the M1a2 in over 2 years. While the USSR has gotten several MBT's all with incredible optics and addon armor kits. The U.S seriously could use the SepV2 at this point the SepV1 can be entirely skipped its practically a year late.

KPZ/MBT-70 when they were released were so oppresive that Gaijin hard-blocked America and Germany from being on the same team for three years, probably the closest top tier to the Abrams in terms of how much it fucked with Gaijin.

As someone who mostly plays between 3.3-8.7 Yeah… 6.7-8.0 is a real mess, I play it cause I can run around in the Italian meme machines But 6.0 down is generally pretty balanced and fun, Germany gets a lot of stuff that should be higher (panther has a better armor layout and a better gun then the Tiger 1 and gets the same Br, as an example) But generally things are more fair, armor actually exists for the most part, and brawling actually happens alot and can be alot of fun Top tier is a pain because, although you have a ton of armor, with how small some of the maps are, games last 2 min and if you spawn more then twice you’ll just be throwing away your SL because of the stupidly high repair costs and how little you still make when you lose The Grind wouldn’t be as bad if they didn’t punish dying so much I get that they want to provide an SL sink, but stupid repair costs isn’t how you do it

I think the funniest thing early on with the M1 was that any ammo that was detonated in the bustle without killing the tank counted as spent ammo so players had to pay for the lost ammo and people were griefing them by detonating their bustle racks before killing them when they got the chance.

There’s one thing about Warthunder everyone whose been playing for more than 4 years can agree on, we do not like to think back to when the T10M and leopard were 300K exp to get because it makes me cry thinking about how much time I invested just to get them compared to how big the tech trees have gotten

Spook, what is Your opinion about stock HEAT-FS in top tier? Just yesterday got my Leo 2A6 and against russian MBTs that ale covered head to toe in ERA i can't do anything, and since breaking the barrels or tracks doesn't constitute to earning assists getting that 25k rp for stock dart is really painful

Cough up money. GayJiggles made stock HEAT grinds a fucking nightmare on purpose so you can either pay or gimp yourself into being a deadweight when you hit the battle button. Very shitty of them as per usual.

@benbowman6995 Год назад
@@dovahkiin3526 yeah I agree it is, my only recommendation at the moment if you play top tier try and play in places where tanks without ERA tend to go and take capture points when you can, oh and help allies repair when you can and remember taking out wheels doesn't count but they didn't say anything about tracks so I believe if you break a track you can get an assist and most tanks have no defense in the rear so maybe try a sneakier play style to try and get behind players. Things like turning off engine and just hiding in bushes or in shadows can work if they aren't using thermals.

Perhaps then you’d just want to play something that simply lets you roflstomp anything and everything? Play GHPC, then you can live out your own nationalist wet fantasy of being an invincible Desert Storm tanker popping T-series tanks left and right with no fear of challenge. I mean, you probably have a short attention span anyway so at the very least it won’t get boring too quickly for you.
