[Discussion] Balance, Bias, Matchmaking and Battle Ratings

What?

sorry, this is a ccontinuation of earlier discusion of russians tank balance. Check it out.

Kfir Canard. Air RB 11.0- 10.3

No radar
Garbage RWR- blind to russian radar missiles- which is what you fight majority of games
Sketchy FM with terrible rudder control
36 CMs
2 OK missiles

Compared with 11.0 mig 21 bis its no contest. More like J35XS (probably worse but cant go lower)

Its fast and can bomb a base…

So cant fly high, has weak offence, has very weak defence, aiming is hard at all times and runs out of fuel on big maps shortly after u hit the base.

10.3 is too low because it’s certainly better than the Saab F-35, however I don’t think it would be oppressive at 10.7.

11.7 and 12.0 Kfir could go down in BR at the same time.

In one of the air tourneys I watched. The 11.7 Kfir was one of the few jets players used. Tourney was mainly a F5 fest-. So Whoever ran the tourney at Gaijin knows its real BR rolls with F5s.

The BR ratings by using silver ernt per game is bending the reality of in game performance

Kfir Canard is used as a bomber, and is correctly BR’d for that role.
At 10.3, the Buccaneer S2B exists which is drastically inferior to the Kfir Canard. 0.7 BRs inferior.
Meanwhile, Kfir Canard is among the best fighter bombers at 11.0.

So you are good with jets being put at their BR because they can bomb a base…

Personally Im not.

Unless you want its bombs removed, its BR isn’t changing.

If you purchased the Kfir Canard, you purchased a bomber that can defend itself.
The information that it was balanced around that was told to you from the start.

BTW, even if you removed the Kfir Canard’s bombs it’d still be 10.7 because of engine and flares.

A simple Dynamic BR for jets like this, tonka another example- 12.3 with 2 9ms?! would be the best thing they could do

I dont want to bomb, ever. This Kfir is the worst, not even a skill issue. You leave floor= potential surprise missile.

10.7 maybe but i look at the mig 21 at 10.3 and think thats its spot. If the mig and friends at 10.3 ever get decompressed- the Kfir can go with them

So you want to ruin player choice and cause toxic behavior…
No thanks.
Dynamic BR, AKA restricting people to choosing loadouts before hitting to battle, should never be a thing.
That would kill the game faster than anything else.

Also, if you didn’t want to bomb you probably shouldn’t have purchased a strike aircraft.

People can still bomb just higher BR. If I want to fly tonka with 2 9ms with no bombs for 0.3 br lower than wheres the issue?

Better still silver earnt/ bases should have exactly zero say to BR rating in the first place. For some reason you side with the snail…

If you want a Kfir balanced around its fighter capabilities, that’d be the Kfir C2 and C7.

And weird of you to call players “the snail”.
Siding with the snail would be supporting a dynamic BR system, because players do not want the consequences of that system.

Silver earnt is 100% the snails concern

The other 2 should be dropped in BR too.

Just tried the bombing. Other jets beat it to the target alot… a tonka get 2 bases last game. Which left me dodging invisible sarh missiles from space on no after burner for 5 mins. Bases respawned, snagged base. 2 mins of fuel. ran out 20 km from rearm, floating back and luckily game ends.

10.3 all day, base or no base

MiG-23 vs. F-104S TAF, what can F-104 do??? outrun, outturn, better missiles? all games against f… tons of mig23. When biased br placed Russian planes cook American planes from 100 years ago, we don’t think about how great Russia is! I just want to grind f… eurofighter with the premium plane I paid for, even another uber-super(!) Russian-made 3 mach+4 OP missiles MiG-25, which came out very recently, is being listed at 11.0 while f… f104 with 6 useless missiles is 11.3

Its become a game of luck over skill.
Silver over gameplay balance.

Wonder why Centurion mk.2 still 6.7

Facing Is-4m, Maus, M48, T-54, M103… And no, Stabilizator isn’t a reason, 17pdr is weak since the APDS nerf. It should back at 6.3 battlerating.

It is the reason actually. It was easy mode and performed way to well at 6.3 so they moved it up to 6.7.

Also with a 3.5 K/D in your Mk.2 I’m sure you totally have no alterior motives for why you want it to be moved down lol.

Ratio was in 6.3 battlerating, it’s more difficult to play with and the freaking shattered apds issue.
Let me dream. Just like Chieftain mk 3 at 8.3, black prince 5.7, hesh fix and not just T58. Brexit great again.

also the issue : 6.7 is always in 7.3/7.7 battle, plus British tech tree isn’t played more than other nations. we’ve many issue about this, I’ve better luck with Sweden or Israel (wtf) go not be the only one or two in the British nation.

Do people even use that?
I just can’t handle that slow acceleration

Not just that Russian vehicles suck so they need too be overpowered to challenge NATO vehicles
