v1.1 ATGM on BMP-2M accuracy is a joke

~~Henrique_Dalben~~ · 2014-01-22, 02:16

The "realistic" movement on the ATGM fired by the BMP-2M makes it useless against targets more than 400m away, as the sway will drive the ATGM either over the target or into the ground, making it impossible to defeat even unsuspecting armor.

Got a video? I haven't seen anything as severe as what you're describing myself. Are you saying that the missile is getting increasingly inaccurate over distance?

I'm saying that over large distances the missile sway will be so huge that it will end up hitting the ground or flying over the target. If my internet wasn't so shit when it comes to upload speed i'd post a video, but it's easily tested.

Playing Khamysia today i was running a BMP-2M squad and had 3 BMPs fire 1 ATGM each at an abrams side armor at the max viewdistance of the map (not sure how far it is), even with the crosshairs centered on the target 2 of the missiles hit the ground ~30m before the tank and the other one just flew over. After that we lost 2 BMPs to that same abrams, leaving enough time for the remaining one to fire again, which resulted in the ATGM hitting the ground, again, around 30m short.

Sounds like armor had a good time

Apart, when we were in BMP-3 on Bijar, we took out 2 tanks and 1 APC by one shot ATGM.
Distance was over 400m for all targets.
AT Missiles are less accurate, true, but personally I haven't had any issues like u described now.
Maybe just bad luck?

Anyways, if more people believe that there is something wrong, we will surely improve it

Thanks for the feedback.

Only shot 1 ATGM missile since the upgrade. It hit the ground 20m away from my vehicle. Same thing happened to a TOW MT-LB on Silent Eagle the other day. They fired at a tank, but hit the ground 30m away from them instead.

I think the Sagger works well on the BMP-1 atleast.
