The only bias I experience playing from the three most popular nations lately for ground between 6.0 to 7.7 is the Heavy US tanks being more mobile and higher turret traverse and funny angles on the turrets and hull.
For the USSR only the IS-4M and T-54 stopping most rounds that are not heat or cheesing by hitting the cupola with aphe
German tanks only have good hull armor.
I do see these three nations get better planes used for CAS than the rest
French tanks at these BRs in my opinion are very strong for mobility, pen and reload.
Im going to drop this quick
VB.10-02 should go down from 4.7 to 4.0 like VB.10-01 because it’s heavier for the extra 50 cals, not even the ones with full tracer belts btw
Another CLASSIC example of bot heaven and ridiculous matchmaking falseness!!
Getting kinda bored of the game - the fakeness, the sheer calculated matches! the ridiculous effort to make the game harder than it should be!
Someone should be seriously ashamed of their participation in this farce!
Does anyone else think that any Phantom at 12.0 should be moved down to 11.7 as they are all very similar to the Mig 23’s at the battle rating. A phantom going against f-15s or Su-27s is really unfair to those who play them.
The matchmaking might be the same but the game does try to prohibit certain nations from teaming up. But this doesnt make much sense in practise because I will still be on a ‘prohibited team’ when playing solo and when I’m in a squad then the matchmaking gets grumpy and does everything it can to prevent it. Secondly certain BRs will have the worst players on your team and then they will be the most try hard sweats youll come across when you face that same nation. Its a piss poor way of saying they have SBMM, Its just most noticeable at certain BRs with certain nations… i.e. Russia, Germany, US since they are played the most.
For balance the bomber/strike air gunners useless defense situation. AI gunners on strike and bomber aircraft need to be buffed, range (600m minimum distance for start shooting, to max 1500m with aced and max crew) and a little bit more accuracy for skilled crew. At this time an aced crew is almost the same as the beginner one. They need a huge difference, the aced or better quality crew need exponential better aim and range. See the other topics in the forum.
Nah. F-4J gets a better radar than the MiG-23, and double the effective sarh missiles while also having better IR missiles. You can argue that the R-24R is better than a singular AIM-7F. You cannot argue 2 R-24Rs are better than 4 AIM-7Fs or that the MiG-23 radar is superior.
Is there something I am not aware of about the Me163? Seems like I am out of fuel as soon as I arrive at the frontline, in which case I am also slower than all my contemporaries. So who decided it was a good idea to put it along side 8.0/8.3 vehicles?
It used to have 6 mins of fuel which allowed you to budget it much better, but it was nerfed down to 4 without any BR compensation. I think all of those rocket planes should be 8.0/7.7 with an interceptor spawn, but Gaijin doesn’t seem to want to change it.
Tip: don’t use full throttle for anything but dogfights, it can last for 20+ minutes on 50% throttle.
