How to agasint BTr-82a

[<!^!>~ Pocky ! <*=*>]

I wonder how to deal with it AT weapon is a bit short range and US don't have any vehicle to deal with Btr-82a right now what is suggestion. I know sometime can sneak with AT4 guy or ranger law but will there any vehicle to agasint btr-82a ?

[Blacktyde]

I was kinda wondering that myself.
since everytime i try to face the btr with the american APC, i end up losing mine very quickly.
and AT infantry is usefull, but almost impossible to sue agains an BTR in high ground.

[<!^!>~ Pocky ! <*=*>]

same happens to me i lost so many soldier agasint BTR. I though we could use m2 bareley or LAV-25 against this vehicle but nor of them available yet -_-. At miss many time even I'm try to aim by myself

I always end up lost AT team and ranger when try to agasint BTR-82A because pro player always come with infantry and even bot still have infantry around the vehicle -__-

It's all a matter of outflanking it/out manuvering it. The BTR-82a is still a BTR. Its armour can be penned by the american Styker or even Humvee 50cals.

Yes but in comparison the 30mm can completely outgun any of its equal rivals. I find the 82a a complete king of the hill against other BTRs of it's tier.

We'll provide a few balance fixes soon, after some tweaks the BTR turned out a lot stronger than before.

And you are right, the M2 Bradley will be the counter to it. (unlocked at level 1)

You Could simply Have a Us Humve With Tow Missiles. Simply Nerfing A weapon System That Cant Be Countered Becouse you have nothing To counter it at the time is Pointless. Btr82a Is a advanced Weapon System. The 30mm Auto Cannon Projectile Is 2 times has Heavy Has US 25mm Cannon Shells Used on the bradley.. On top of that It has More then 2 times the fire rate As the Bush master Does. Btr82a Was going to Be Powerhouse. How ever Us Combats with Javlin Missiles And Air Power. Both of those Are Not really present in This Current Build Of the game

the Bradley will destroy any kind of BTR be it with TOW or 25mm rounds (MK19 works too if well managed (ambush and stuff), for the bmp though, it can damage it enough to kill the crew and you take to yourself but if he shoot you first you are pretty much dead. otherwise an ambush from behind with a infantry squad works wonder, dont even do that from the front or 3 mg and a 120mm cannon will shoot you.

M2 Bradley has maybe 3 times stronger armor then btr82a and reactive armor means the btr can not even scratch it.
The armor protects the Bradley against 30 mm APDS rounds and even RPGs.
The bradley ingame seems like M2A2. [/quote]


M2 Is also atleast 10 more tons Then a btr. The 30mm Apds Only protects After So many of the pannels Blow Off And your left With No ER. Question Is How many 400g Apds Rounds At the rate of fire Of 550 rounds a minute Does it take to get to the center Of the Bradley? Lets Count 1 2 3 Boom

Any chance to just switch BTR82a with BTR80s ? Why M2 Bradley, what will counter BMP 2 then, M1A2 ?
Instinct when you will remove that AS2 damage system ? Its absolutely out of the way how modern armor works.

There is no point in BTR80S when BTR80 is already in game.
Because Bradley have capability to be hard counter to BTR82A.
Did BMP 2 become immune to everything else except M1A2?
Bradley, M1128 Stryker, BMP 2, BMP 3 all of them have capability to destroy each other.

When Instinct get tired dealing with old system and delete it instead of wasting time on making it work

I think the problem would be solved by increasing the range of at Infantry
Another possibility would be the heavy sniper team

[The_masser]

I think that the AT infantry needs to be maybe buffed to 75m, though I did hear in the last update it got buffed to 100m. But the accuracy needs to be not terribly accurate, otherwise the AT infantry will be pin pointing the vehicles cross map. I do tend to find myself using the standard soldiers to counter vehicles, and sneak through enemy lines. But I am a bit stubborn and stopped trying after I raged about my second AT squad being killed :P

They will have higher penetration power in the next update.

I'd love to use that :)

Would also be great if you could put in a LAV-25 hint hint hint

The 3rd person controls feel a lot better now and having the CTRL DC/3rd person back is good also

A Bradley kind of overmatches a BTR by... Quite a bit.

I don't think that's a very efficient counter. You're not going to tell me next that the BMP-2 is a counter to the Bradley, right? Because those two are right on the money with each other, but I'd give the BMP-2 better anti-infantry capability and the Bradley better anti-vehicle...

BTR-82A has stabilized main gun and electric powered BPPU turret, so nerfing it will be a little bit problematic. Maybe you can change them from BTR-82A to BTR-80A? It doesn't really make sense for GRM to have MBT dated back to 1985 (T-80 BV/T-80U) but has post-2009 APC (BTR-82A).

As far as I could remember, neither BTR-80 nor BTR-80A has stabilized main gun, so the reasonable step to nerf them would be lowering fire accuracy on the move and increase the main gun spread over time. BTR-80 is equipped with manually operated turret controlled by two hand cranked fly wheels, so maybe decrease its turret traverse speed a little bit could be another way to go.
