+-1 BR is outdated

So you think having 0.7 BR mm is same as wot facing rank 8 tanks in some poor rank 6 tank? :D :D :D

I think you have never played wot then.
That MM is seriously moresame as in war thunder not having BR’s at all just Rank MM , so it is like facing Any top tier MBT from rank 8 in your poor rank 6 KPZ-70

Ok, that makes sense reading through that. I think it would still be time consuming but definitely needed.

I’d like to see that, lol. I think that would be pretty skill dependent, especially the Maus.

I don’t really see what ±0.7 would achieve that just some sensible BR placements couldn’t - at least in ASB at WW2 prop tiers.

All we really need down there is stuff like XP-55, Ki-84, Spitfire Lf Mk IX, Ju 288 and F4U-4B to get moved up and it’d be chill. Then maybe also the P-51C and P-51D-5 to swap places.

With WW2 piston fighters you can have people winning 2.0 BR differences fairly consistently (F6F-5 (3.7) vs Bf 109 K-4/Ta 152H (5.7)) in ASB.

Yes, I think it would be better.

If folks do want a challenge, or perhaps bring in a HE/HEAT slinger with low BR in GRB, they can include it in their preset.
Likewise, they can also bring some lower BR plane, which could have some other redeeming features (like maneuverability).
And of course, you can also bring in a reserve vehicle in, like, 10.0 BR match. It is something of a coming around, as IFVs tend to have low armour, so reserve vehicle would be able to do something, especially with artillery strike upgrade.

Of course, devs could make more sensible BR placements of vehicles… But that of course depends on who is the one deciding what is sensible and not, fellow can be biased.

So this BR 1.0 to 0.7 reduction would be a quicker solution.

Just out of curioisity , why would all 2K and over vehicles should be moved around?
This 0.7Br mm range would just cut lowest and biggest out of your normal games.

Now you play example 10.0 ground game, you get anything from 9.0/9.3/9.7/10.0/10.3/10.7/11 in there.
This would just make it afterwards 9.3/9.7/10.0/10.3/10.7.
I’m not wanting to change these basic systems at all, I personally think this would actually give breathing room and keep more equal vehicles in same game.

I would like to know some example why or what vehicle could suffer from this change?

To be balanced with one another…

The point of a match maker is to provide diverse challenge.
And right now, most vehicles are balanced [not my opinion].
It is a minority of vehicles causing issues for everyone else.

It’s not F-18A causing issues for 11.3, it’s Su-30SM2, F-15C GE, etc causing issues for 11.3.
It’s not F-86A-5 causing issues for Me 262, it’s Mig-19PT/S causing issues for Me 262.

The root causes for badly BR’d vehicles are easily spotted.
