      @@antoniojmolsto be fair 9.0 Italian ground is one of (if not the only) sweet spot Italy has where is moderately on par with everyone they fight. However once you get past that and higher into 10.3-11.7 it’s just suffering, I still have no idea why they put the AMV at 11.7 when we have 11.3s and 10.7s that are just better in every way but pen (DM53), which doesn’t even matter since the CL round imo is just better with spalling and it’s enough to deal with anything at that BR

      And then for the MBTs you have the worst optics of any top tier MBT in-game (at least in my opinion) I mean a 8-12x sight? Really, why can’t it just have the same sights as the leopard 2 like it used too. Also Ariete PSO is at 11.3 while the ZTZ99-2 and ZTZ99-3 are at 10.7 with statistically better guns, faster going forward, better sights, much better armor, it’s only downside is reload and reverse speed

    I'm a "German main" apparently despite having enjoyed Italy back when the CL round that they all "start with" had 615mm pen BEFORE the Leopard 2A6 had the Dm53. I LOVED Italy because the Centauro 120 was amazing to play, it was fast, hard hitting and just overall amazing to play with yet suddenly "wind" was the reason they got nerfed (don't believe me? Go look back when their shell got nerfed before others got added). Now the Spikes don't even work correctly because you have to see the drivers port (aim at a Russian or American take from the side and shoot, 9/10 times that missile will go for the drivers port) so their "special tank" they got just didn't really support them all that much. Italy used to be such an amazing and hilarious nation nation to play because they were the absolute KINGS of Glass Cannons, that's why I loved them and enjoyed them so much; now look at the husk of what used to be one of the most amazing nations to play.

    I think the single worst part for ground would be the mid teir gaps, and the Arietes, which are way higher in BR than they should, with the only one in a decent spot being the Prototype.
    Not only that when the WAR armor kit came out for the standard Ariete, i saw a bug report where the WAR kit, dispite being designed specifically to counter kenetic rounds, their KE protection was equivilent to Kontakt-1, hell, the PSO kit, the kit designed to counter chemical rounds does a better job at stopping KE rounds than war, but Gaijins reaction to this bug report was literally "not enough evidence, sorry"
    On top of that, the IVECO/OTO-MELARA website, and a few other sources, state that composite armor is present in the hull, and yet thats not enough evidence either... plus them refusing to add the WAR/PSO combo to the AMV even though that was one of the main reasons Italy gave it a better engine and wider tracks
    Ive even tested this, and found the Type 10... the fucking Type 10 MBT which prioritiezed light weight and mobility over armor, could tank rounds significantly better than Ariete at its stronger points

    I've been playing this game seriously since the last months of 2020. I've mained Italy almost all the time (now researching JP but that's another story). I've never seen anything good come out of Gaijin for our tree. It's kind of sad as an Italian, but the worst part is that anyone who plays this tree, will be at an incredible disadvantage. This is because the few good vehicles in the game are buried under overtiered stuff, missing BR's, POSSIBLE vehicles that they would never add and incredibly unfair mechanics.
    Think of the CL-13. It's not incredible, but it had at least 6 other variants that could be implemented in one way or another. Now I'm not saying they should add every single variant of that thing, but it's 6 possible new things that they did not care for. I'm sad for Gaijin not being capable enough to manage something like this lol

    I remember at the begging how much every one liked Italy: it was the first nation to basically introduce wheel tanks to the game, so it offered a very different play style.
    But the more we go forward the more a thing that Gajin purposely hates Italy: they realized how many player it could have potentially:"stolen" from the big 3 (and I guess consequentially all the money coming from that) so they just let Italy a second thought.
    I hope that if Gajin is really going through a "reform" or whatever after the review bombing, they will also improve Italy

    I played Italy when I was through with the German ground, air and helicopter trees and it was like someone had set the game to hardcore. It was even worse than Japan, whose tree I'm currently playing through. In my opinion, the only really good line-up is on 10.0 with the Ariete C1, the Dardo with both 25mm and 30mm cannon, the Freccia and the 10.0 helicopter, which at least already has Hellfire ATGMs and is therefore really strong, especially in down tier battles. As far as CAS is concerned, however, apart from the Tornado and the g91, everything is bad and that's why I don't have any CAS in the line up.

      I practically started the game as an Italian main. The Sagittario 2 needs it’s belts back and needs to have its CAS equipment introduced. It was intended to carry unguided rockets and bombs in real life. The plane is already a prototype so I don’t see the prototype payloads as being a bad idea. Italy may suffer but it sure as hell feels special when you’re dominating.

    Don't forget with the Sag2, not only did they raise it's BR and remove its AP belt, they also gave it a 55K SL repair cost lol
    Italy is in the best place its ever been since we finally got the F16, Tornado, and the DM53.
    They just reduced the Saette's AshM to a measly 5kg explosive mass from its original 26kg filler.
    The G91YS FINALLY can be spaded for less that 480,000RP but for what, a subsonic, no radar, no RWR, no countermeasure, plane with two 9Bs at 9.7.
    It took me and another guy nearly 2 years to get the Otomatic's radar fixed. Ever tried leading a jet with a 10+/- radar arc?
    The 2s38 is by definition an SPAA but Gaijin lets them take a pure dart belt but refuse to allow hull stored dart for the Otomatic
    Our current top tier MBT doesn't even have a roof gun and has worse armor than the two before it.
    Italy still doesn't have a heavy tank. NOT ONE. If Sweden gets test vehicles, why can't we get the Tiger that Italians were trained on?

    If they want to fix Italy, how about making the Italy tree more fun and unique?
    -give them a hungarian Gripen in March
    -lower otomagic to 10.0, like 2S38 -add a Francesco Mimbelli destroyer at 8.3 blue water with two helis on board in December update.
    -recoilless rifle vespa at 6.0
    -in December give the sparviero the Otomat missile and change BR to 8.0, later Exocet and a tech tree sparviero could be added
    It was a good nation to play:
    got plenty of lions with P40 tank when it was in beta.
    Warbond spit allowed grinding to g91 in two weeks, because every fighter after rank III was fun to spade.
    F-84 RE was meta with its air spawn it kept as an oversight, which made it the 4th strongest plane in squadron battles for four years.
    R3 dominated SRE for multiple BRs.

It was amazing that ship's auto cannon is glorious and it holds up unless you put it against any other nation's premiums and then you die and air battles don't even get me started.

  • @pippopappo2510

    I'm italian and i play basically all my nation's tech tree often, even the Arietes. In my opinion top tier is much worst than even 8.7. In fact i do pretty well with the OF-40 Mk.2 or the VBC(pt2), while at top tier the experience can be rough, especially when playing against russians. In my opinion Gaijin could do more, for exemple by adding the Centauro 2, after all they added the Type 16 for the japanese, wich entered in service in 2016 if i'm not wrong, the same year the Centauro 2 enterd in service. But they are not totally to blame for the tanks and other veichles bad performances, especially with the Ariete, that even in real life was obsolete even when entered in service in 1995. Regarding helcopters i can't speak about them because i don't play them. Naval is pretty difficult to play, in fact i dropped them at 4.0 b.r. As for planes i don't play them much anymore, but i totally avoid the G-91YS/Y nowdays and same for the F-104s. So to recap Italy soffers more at high tiers/top tier because the veichles aren't super good by their own and because Gaijin is at least a bit biased or just don't give a f****. Anyway good video, keep doing a great job. 👉

But I'm still sad to see how Italy is getting thrown about here and there... I kinda hope they would add something like the Draco after the OTTOMATIC as an upgrade SPAA but I know that won't happen, but it's not just because gaijin doesn't like Italy but also because the OTTOMATIC itself isn't done correctly and is still at quite the high BR

    You talked about everything except for how it is for low to mid tier. There's a few good lineups but when you get to 4.0, you start seeing a terrible setup and br's that make it difficult to properly gradually climb up the tree. If I remember correctly, it's only one 4.0 vehicle, only one 5.0 vehicle, and then it's a clear flat line between ranks 3 and 4.
    France has the exact same thing, but it apparently doesn't matter to anyone else.
