LOSAT so so awful to play and use
even at 1.0 BR this thing is so so awful
i don't understand why gajin not buffing or doing something to make it playable
after 500 games on it most kills i got was 3 kills..
it's worst tank in the game the worst

1-awful maps does not help
2-if shot first your dead no matter what
3-it's so awful to aim
it's been years and i don't understand why it's not getting any changes or buffs?

You have to consider that the LOSAT was designed for long range engagements over flat open terrain much like the ACRA gun launcher on the AMX-10M and AMX-30 ACRA.

And only very few maps fulfill that criteria, which makes such vehicles non viable in most cases, especially the LOSAT´s Missiles need 1km to reach their maximum potential.

It's a meme vehicle, what do you expect?

The only map this vehicle works on is Kursk since you get direct line of sight across the map and have thermals. The only 2 times I did well in the LOSAT was on that map.

I spaded it with a very near 1:1 kdr. For a vehicle that is extremely situational i don't think that's too shabby. Its a fun meme machine

If it didn't soil itself on angled terrain by shooting into the ground, blocked view with smoke from missile,had some indicator which missile is next to be shot and had smoke launchers then it would be solid vehicle. Now its just meme most of the time and ok on some maps.

And it will most likely stay that way. On maps like cargo port and on Attica (south spawn) it is easy to get 6-8 kills on average with it bcs of unobstructed sightlines but once you get map with more diverse terrain its a miracle to get more than two kills.

The worst tank in game is the BM-8-24, less pen then light MGs on that one

But as it is for the LOSAT you need to use it in places it works and not spawn it where it doesnt. The same way how you tend not to want to spawn a heavy tank in an uptier.

The issue is that amount of places where it works is very limited mainly due to how poorly projectiles launch in angled positions. You could bring M901 in place of LOSAT and it would make more impact due to having more spots to use without being exposed.
