[Discussion] Balance, Bias, Matchmaking and Battle Ratings

Phanter d and its erlier version straight 5.7 or 6.0. I do not care how bad its turret raverse is, a 75mm kwk and good armor, it is a beast in its br

“Earlier version” as in the VK? to 5.7? LOL

You vastly underestimate the value of turret traverse. Makes a giant difference on their playability.

Let me guess, you explicitly want the F-16AJ to go lower in BR so it compresses and further ruins the game?

Whats with everyone and wanting the aj to be moved down? I just dont get it, its genuinely the best 12.7 ive played. The ej kai used to be usable but now that the f18s in the game its just unusable at its br.

People want compression to benefit them but hate when compression hurts them

All f16s that are not fox 3 are doing really bad

Theres no way 2 sparrows justify the AJs 12.7 over the rest of f16as when taking into consideration the BR bracket and what it contains

Give the f16s their CMs back - randomly nerfed 25% - as if it wasnt bad enough before

Give AJ 4x sparrows or move it to 12.3
F20- 12.0
Harrier 11.7- like the a10s.
Kfir 12.0- 11.7 - screw the reward vic like the mirage did. Theres not enough room for them all.

When a phantom is doing better than all.the f16s and even the harrier has same KD- the harrier with no radar that makes it an achievement to even get a good lock with 9M in a furball - the f16s FM obviously isnt carrying anything

Their model literally shows that they have 45 so idk what you want

The 60 they had before

Unless you can magically change the model good luck with that

So what justifies F16A10 at 12.3 once the strictly superior jet is the same BR? You do not think of fixing compression, you quite literally salivate over it.

Strictly superior to F-4S which is already the best 12.0. Again, you LOVE compression.

Now take into consideration what 11.3-11.7 bracket contains and how it will fare against BVR-capable f16 block 10. You are decompressing one plane by compressing a bunch of others.

Moving things down is never a solution to compression, ever.

Until flanker gets moved the f16a’s cant be helped- NETZ mod you could say with its ton of CMs = AJ and thats 12.3- already unjustified really.

F20 fits 12.0, 45 cms, low missile count vs mirage magics, infinite cms vs phantom missile bus… pretty fair, no?

F-16 being scared of mirages is funny as hell.

skill issue

Stop asking for changes that make the game worse

1 vs 1 its not but over 10 games i wouldnt be surprised if the mirage gets more kills. Mirage CT is pretty good to be fair

between autocannon vehicles, helicopters, and the T58 I don’t understand how anyone unironically enjoys the 8.x br bracket. Genuinely miserable place to play.

somehow doing literally nothing and losing every game at 10.0 with the chaffee trying to spawn the nighthawk and then doing nothing in the nighthawk when I managed to spawn it was still more enjoyable than playing 8.3 britain

I mean its usually more ok when you don’t have fun in br*t TT than do. Masochism isn’t a good thing.

POV: Playing 8.0-8.3 without stab/LRF/Okayish ammo/mobility/all of above.

Context: Before that i was almost exclusively playing ARB/Naval for a couple of years.

Play 9.0-9.3 i guess. Then it’s almost great except 35 mm totally not OP, weakish 70 SP class.

Britain is pretty fun actually there’s something very satisfying about being able to frontpen literally everything you see for pretty much the entire game
