props are honestly just so unbalanced it’s sad, I honestly feel like it was better 6-7 years ago

I agree - just look at BRs some years ago and where they are today.
Or watch old DEFYN vids (i recommend the I-185 M71 vid - 5.0 those days 😉). It looks like that the prop BR policy (except for Axis and UK) is just a result of way too many untrained US and USSR players…

axis props go up, allied go down, we’re facing 1945-6 planes in 1943 aircraft most of the time.

You can’t take away the rank III+ printers from the sealclubbers! how will they earn their trains worth of SL!
On a separate note, I feel like this thread comes from the bf-109 F-4 and sometimes even bf-109 E-4 pampering their pilots with just absurd mix of climb, turn and vertical energy retention.
On the g series you lose your average turnspeed, still not a shock, But then it starts to get sour. Enemies no longer stall as predictably, they start to outclimb the 109 and also outdive the 109.
It ends on the bf-109 K-4, outclassed at a BR full of experienced players using planes which a lot of times outclass the K-4 in almost everything and are very common.
Let’s not even start on a full uptier, meeting a spitfire Mk.22 or 24 is a death sentence to most props and the K-4 stands no chance most of the time.
BF-109s are popular planes that start somewhat well, get turned into monsters halfway, and end in sad and sour note.

The Me 163 is now facing 1960s stuff and at times even later vehicles with FAF missiles while it has 3 minutes of fuel.
