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
