Not really, that’s assuming that the players all have the same skill and ideas, there are always going to be above average players that can make their WR higher than 50%. What do you do then? Send the vehicles up a BR because that percentage of players can make it work? Or what about when there are a lot of people struggling with a vehicle, take the Shinden for example, should it go down to 5.0 because people don’t know how to play it?
Actually yes. You should be running them based off the average and not the best players. If you have single players that are above average you balance them by always opposing them. We don’t play correct nation battles anyways, so just mix it. Hell, this would balance the game out pitting op tanks vs op tanks. They do this in Air RB right now. With F14s on both sides. They should be doing the same in ground.
Ok so the good players playing the Shinden for example, if it went down to 5.0, would be curb stomping 4.0s in it, it is faster than 4.0s, has better cannons and is already dominating 6.0-7.0 lobbies when a good player flies them
How is this any different from the WMA301 going down to 8.0 and stomping people? Or the images I showed you how I 1 + CAS death leave and still manage to get 5+ kills. You cannot balance based on one person. For every 1 good player, you have 10 really bad players just trying to have fun. You balance based off the median.
Oh sure you do, and that’s fine, but this leads to problems like the Wyverns, I don’t play ground much but in air Wyverns are a massive plague, they don’t often get many air kills, but they destroy bases and ground targets and can end a match in 5 minutes, players that don’t get air kills led the Wyvern to be at 4.0 with the performance of a 5.3 or more.
Then their win rate would be high though and should be bumped up.
But the players can’t kill air so it’s low
Then their is a flaw in the design. But destroying all the ground targets and winning = a win.
So you agree that the Wyvern should go up? Ok cool, so if we move something lower so it is op it needs to go up again, if we move it higher and it does badly we need to move it down again,
That would be balance. But right now, none of the russian vehicles are getting moved up like they should. The 2S38 is still at 10.0 some how, and it has needed a BR increase for a while.
I don’t know enough about the 2S38 to say what, but it could be because it is a premium, most premiums are undertiered and that’s to increase sales
10.0 russian tank with Gen 3 thermals, proximity rounds, IRST tracking, 48 mph, -5/+75 elevation, stabilizer, unmanned turret (no crew loss with a turret hit), with a 0.5 second reload rate on APFSDS.
Like I said I don’t play ground much so I don’t know if that is op or not,
It is the definition of Soviet P2W. Its strong even in Br11 matches
Ah right, what do you mean Soviet P2W? Every Soviet premium is P2W
Most are strong and a pain to fight but probably only need to move 1 to 2 stops higher, but a few are completely OP. This is one of the latter. 2S38 is 10.0 and probably would be perfectly fine at 11.0. I see them all the time in 11.3+ matches.
It is 2015 ish vehicle I think. Its one of the most modern vehicles in the game right now (could be wrong on that though)
It is still in the Testing/Design phase. All the numbers are napkin “best case scenario” It was supposed to go into service this year (2023) but they are having production issues and getting their butts kicked in Ukraine is hurting its release.
Its not even in service yet.
It would be the same thing as if the US line was given the M5 Ripsaw.
Ah… yeah, well fingers crossed for Challenger 3 in the next major update then. Only sounds fair to me
Can we first get the multi engine tanks fixed? I mean… Sweden is the only nation with a tank that can fully operate with just a gunner (the gunner has driving controls in the S Tanks) and Sweden, Britain and a couple others have dual engine tanks with dual transmissions. Meaning they shouldn’t be dead in the water when one goes down, but I guess since that doesn’t benefit russia we will never see it.
True, also need Regenative steering and the list of missing/incorrect things for the Chally 2 is mind boggling, but it would hurt the top tier svoiet line up if other nations got stronger
