For example, the Yak1b is an aircraft that was upgraded towards the end of 1942. In simulation warfare, it’s tier 3.3, while in the German tree, it’s equivalent to the FW 190 A1 :=)
As a tank, the T90A entered service in 2004. We’re playing against a 1985 Leopard A4.
For example, the 109 K4 is upgraded towards the end of 1944, at tier 5.7. Although it’s the same equivalent at the time, it’s also the monster called the F4U 4B, which entered service during the Korean War.
For example, the French AMX, with its 4-second reload time, is up against the 6.7 Tiger 2. It’s more effective than the Peugeot and Citroen.
So why are these guys playing the German tree always competing against vehicles that were produced much later and have much better performance?
I demand justice. These should be taken into consideration, at least in simulation mode.
I remember when tanks were first added to the game. Back then, there were T-34-85s up against Panzer 4s. Hahaha, what a terrible time.
Because the game is somewhat too compressed along the whole tree.
Take your Tiger II example. German 6.7 is decent at 6.7 but gets exponentially worse for every .3 uptier and exponentially better for every .3 downtier. It’s just impossible to stay in the same timeframe when capabilities evolve so quickly and differently between 10 different nations
When it was introduced doesn’t matter. For example, the PzH2000 entered service in 1998 and its the same BR as the 1944 (?) IS-6. The Gepard was in service in 1976 and the M48A2GA2 was later (iirc), the IS-7 was made in 1945. What you should be complaining about is decompression, not when it was produced.
It’s because Gaijin has never balanced around date, it has always balanced around capabilities. The only place where this is remotely comparable is top tier, but then we see the issue that Russia is at least decades behind nato and this is with Gaijin holding back NATO tanks
What am I supposed to do against yet another Soviet legal cheater? I even stood up next to burning corpses and he still hits me somehow. Although, for example, the Pars will never hit the intended target like that. I can’t even shoot him down — another bit of Soviet magic: the missile just flies off who knows where instead of flying straight under radio guidance+gps
And this only happens with the Russian side — an invulnerable helicopter and a million no-brainer rockets.
If I try to grab some gun or whatever, I just get killed by another OP thing. Amazing gameplay — so fair and delightful, really makes me want to keep playing your half-finished game (not).
“Delete all those damn air-to-surface IR rockets!”
Guess what vehicle he was using? Hint: Invincible Helicopter with 8x Instakill FnF Missiles that you can only reliably kill with aircraft… but only with TV Guided Munitions that cost upwards of 800-900SP. Fox-1/3s get multipathed and Fox-2s do nothing. Use your gun? Yeah, it can kill you with its own gun if they’re aware or just get help from another Heli, Aircraft or AA.
So, when are we getting a nerf to FnF helicopters?
I am sure I have posted already in this discussion, the alleged balance and matchmaking are a farce.
It cannot have been done so badly by accident it is intentional and on purpose, probably to cut waiting time for games but also trying to psychologically manipulate players into spending money to try and decrease the time and effort. But it never actually happens because everything is structured to make sure it does not happen.
There is no matchmaking or balance in the game that can be called worthy of such a title.
You only hit the ammunition, but you didn’t penetrate the blast door, so the explosion just went through the blowoff panels. Then he shot you with the round in the breech.
It does not really matter who they favor the matchmaking, balance and BR system is garbage. It has long needed an overhaul with so much junk added to tech trees, new modes and players maturing over time ( or just plain cheating).
But that is too much work and effort and as long as rubes, marks and schmucks will part with $70 or more for a pixel copy paste why would anyone with an ounce of intelligence and lack of work ethic bother to change anything.
I expect I would not either it is just too easy to make money of people.
