[Discussion] Balance, Bias, Matchmaking and Battle Ratings

skill issue

I was talking about RB, not arcade.

The jumbo is a really good tank in ground RB


I’m not even that good in grb.

Ya know - I’ve come to the conclusion after many years of studying this game! Russian hasn’t got Bias.!!

The GAME has Bias.! You will only Win or Lose depending on the Matchmaking and RnG thats assigned to the match!

SIMPLES!!! Too many times now its become ABUNDANTLY obvious. Studies also point that way also.!

There is Literally NO chance of a match being a complete wipe out (either way) UNLESS the Matchmaking for example makes it that way! Shots not doing what they are supposed to do, bias spawning, so on sooooooo forth the list is endless.!

I just don’t give a Rats behind anymore. If a match is 1 sided and fake, I just J out now.! Not playing that crud!

MiG-23 variants at 11.7 (all of them) should have been raised to 12.0 years ago.

gaijin will never get rid of the little contraption they made.
that’s why I atleast try to work on the “filter” idea.
Before the thread was moved to here (for some reason) the title was along the lines of “tweaks I would make to the BR balancing (if removal isn’t possible).”

Still, I feel like this atleast filters out the players who rush the air tree of just to abuse some CAS in tank battles.

Having a BR 3.7 gun with tin can armour vs tigers what could possibly be the issue?

KV-1 players will get shot in a place that would breech any other tank, not get breeched, one shot with APHE in return, and then claim the KV-1 isn’t good or a baby mode vehicle. Like sorry I happened to hit your vibranium mantlet while we were b*tchfighting on fields of normandy but your tank is baby mode. It’s more babymode than the t-34, t-50, or basically any other notoriously hand-holdy tank. It’s completely appropriately BR’d I just think anyone who says it’s bad is kind of a moron.

“You shouldn’t be playing heavy tanks in full uptiers” not “You shouldn’t be playing Jumbo in full uptiers”

That is a subtle difference

You don’t need to go around the map.

No he doesnt at all He says something along the lines of “like other heavy tanks it shouldnt be spawned in full uptiers”

5.7 plays vs 6.7 99.99% of games so the tank is useless. Worst tank of tbe BR simple as

Meenwhile 6.7 US heavy is the best tank iv used, uptier or not.

You know that You can even turn on subtitles on YT?

Not to mention later words:

“They are not meant to be played in full uptiers” - when talking about heavy tanks overall.

Are you high?

“It’s incredibly good when it gets like a light uptier — you can play it — but when you get fully uptiered you shouldn’t be spawning this.”

“I will repeat this: you shouldn’t be playing heavy tanks in full uptiers…”

I just wrote what he have said, nothing else.

He belives that no heavy tank should be played on uptier, meaning that it is not related to Jumbo itself but rather the class of the vehicle.

That changes a lot, but knowing him I can say that he has a skill issue.

not “You shouldn’t be playing Jumbo in full uptiers”

Hes literally talking about the jumbo and adds all heavies next sentence

Our of all heavies this one shouldnt be used the most unless theres another tank i missed that:

Has BR 3.7 gun and armour that doesnt work in 99.99% of games.

We can ask him @BPA_Jon

The above is your skill issue

This may or may not be a hot take, but the 11.3 Tornado IDS’ could all easily be 11.0, same with the Su-24. All of those planes are not meaningfully better than a Mig-21, F-5E, or any other 11.0. The 12.3 Tornados could also be 12.0 without any issues, as 9Ms aren’t that powerful.

“Shouldbt be used in uptiers”

Sounds like a game issue.

When we have people arguing that the worst tank(s) in the game (heavies) are actually good its no wonder 14 years later its still the deluded “decompression” will.fix it.

Nobody said that

You don’t know what is or isn’t good in this game, going by your performance.

Its simple logic/ maths. And i quote one of the best players in the game who says the sane…
