Also, as i noticed a T-54 50s tank faces again a tank that is made in 70s or 80s at same br, like, why the heck is this? Why are all br so unbalanced?! Plus we really should need realistic br, no one cares about armor or guns, if its made in same year, but it in the same br, not the mixed br from ww2 and cold war things, we honestly doesnt care if a Sherman meets a tiger, (for historical br) or fix the br that should be like, 1.0-2.0 and 2.3-3.0 3.0-3.7 4.0-5.0 5.3-6.0 6.3-7.0 and so should be, not like 6.7-8.0 or something, what the frick is this dude? What are those br things?? Also when can we choose the bot in costum server the tier settings again? We need this tier settings for bots.
Tell me what your though on this? What do you think? Historical br or fix the br?
If br was decided by year then a few problems arise
1.What to do with partially built vehicles?
2.Sevral tanks and aircraft only succeed due to the br and would struggle when pitted against other vehicles of that year (L-39, Concept 3, Pbv 301 etc).
3.Complaning about balance yet turn the entire ww2 roster in a super compressed amalgamation. The another reason why br by year won’t work is that within the span of 6 years, hundreds of different vehicles and mods were made and began to decrease after ww2 was made (also partially due to armistice).
4.Brs are currently unbalanced but we should ignore a vehicles stats for brs? How would it improve balance?
5.Naval would be horrific, 1915 Destroyer Vs Dreadnoughts? Don’t get me started on coastal either.
Also 6.7 Vs 8.0 is impossible unless your bringing a 6.7 vehicle in a 7.0-9.0 lineup.
The point I’m trying to make is how scattered the vehicles are as we have cold war patrol boats and minesweepers mingling with ww2 vessels. How would you juggle the BRs without stretching out the BRs to insane degrees.
…discussed in dozens of threads and hundreds of posts.
Use search function (historical & semi-historical MM) and continue with that - the forum mods will close your thread due to improper tags, double thread, wrong section or whatever…
Historical BRs just straight up wouldnt work. The difference in performance is rather extreme in various cases, even for vehicles of a similar era (I cant think of any GRB examples, but for ARB, you’d have the F-117 facing mostly 12.0s)
I would be rather interested in an ASB style rotating bracket system to get rid of the RnG based uptiers, but that does come with some potential pitfalls
The T-64A would regularly face Leopard 1s, and be a lower Br than the AMX-30. Post war Swedish/French stuff would go from rank I-III up to 7.0-8.0 for no reason.
Noticed this only now? T-54s specially late versions are not returning to battle rating 7.7 or any lower. All battle rating placements are determined by the player’s performance on said vehicle. Even though T-54 is a post-war World War Two vehicle, it will never face Tiger IIs for sake of balance, I’m afraid even, there are only a few vehicles that can reliably face T-54 (1949) with ease.
War Thunder isn’t getting any historical battle rating changes specially at the main game modes, perhaps an event or Simulator I’d be welcome, specially in Simulator, where I can use late Soviet technology against early Modern technology, depending on battle rating, there are some battle rating 9.0 vehicles facing battle rating 7.7, so it’s not exactly impossible for said changes happen, actually very unlikely.
