Type 60 ATM saltyness.
Hi.
As you have read by now, I'm salty about the Type 60 ATM. It's not because of it beign more useless than a piece of rotten meat and that I wasted 3 weeks trying to get it/spade it. I'm happy about that. No, it's because of the BR change on it. Why the hell do you lower it's BR? It's not going to make it more atractive to people, nor is going to get played more, because now at 7.0 it has less of a chance of doing anything. If they wanted to fix that sardine can with boxes filled with fireworks on top of it, they should have gone first by making the gunner the only guy that manages the rockets, also known as the commander and then fixing the bug where if you try to use your binocs while managing the direction of your misile the thing will get stuck on itself.
I'm salty, triggered and I want it back at 8.0 so I can't see again those Vickers MBT while driving it.
Thank you for reading.

Yes, we have an ATGM in low tier BUT, the missiles are slow as all hell, it has 0 armour, the ATGM is slow and, it's not a real problem in 7.0.

Yeah ik I actually wanted it to be 7.0 because it's much worse than other ATGM and even at 7.0 I would much rather have a T-44 or T29 instead.

Having it at 7.0 is bad because two reasons, taking the obvious people that will complain about an ATGM beign at 7.0, at that BR, if you want to play it agressively, you'll have to massive flank or die, also at that BR, APHE shells are pretty common, and those totally ruin your day, meanwhile Heatfs, APDS, etc are not much of a problem because they won't kill everything inside in one shot. It looks like Gaijin thought that by lowering it's BR it would help the little trash bin, but in truth, it doesn't. If you want to solve it beign pure ♥♥♥♥, make the gunner the guy managing the rockets, and it'll be a "decent" atgm, not the best, not the worst, but a decent one.
I guess finally the Strv found it's match :):steamsalty:

if you want your type 60 on a higher br just pick another tank or a plane with that br as your second vehicle :)

I know, but what if I wanted to do a lineup with all the Type 60's? I would get into 7.0 90% of the time. So let me be salty, please.

Pretty unusual to see a rant thread about a vehicle being lowered, lol. That being said the Type 60 ATM is always going to be terrible. It'd be terrible as a reserve vehicle just as it is an 8.0 and now a 7.0.

It's not bad, if you know how to use it. But if you play it like an idiot, you are going to die a lot. It wouldn't be horrible if you didn't became mobile armour after you got hit. It would be "usable" but anything more than that. And yeah, but atleast is not a rant thread about "The Maus should have a lower BR" and, in short, weehraboos trying to re-enact their power fantasies.

A better question is: why the hell did they come up with the idea of some rockets being keyboard-controlled? In reality they're controlled usually by a joystick, which allows for targeting that could be compared to, yes, using a bloody mouse.

For my sanity and OP's, please don't necro things after they've been dead for over a month. People move on, people comment on their stuff, then they come back angry and/or annoyed.

If you would like to ask a question or make suggestion about ATGM guidance methods, please make a new thread.
