So it’s all just for balance, you think teams of Mi 28s with LMURS and Kh-38 is for balance?
Gaijin’s bottom line is why they are doing it but not for the players enjoyment.
I would say look into it, look into who they sponsor.
Unironically yes, because i bet USSR teams will still barely clear 50% winrate even with broken CAS
which is exactly how they balance the game
“deny other nations similar systems” , “so is the US” uh they literally got 16x jagmrs + their own invincible force field ?.
Not even 50 xD
Looking at the Data Project they are between 40% and 50% xD

What happened to sweden there at 1.0-2.0? xD
Seriously, balancing should be independent of the respective player base and only account for the vehicles + equipment and their performance itself. Otherwise you create vehicles with which the gross of the playerbase gets “avergasized” while good and very good players excell with them. You just don’t tune vehicles for their playerbase, that’s a rookie mistake.

Well that kind of answers one question. When the usual suspects appear to tell us how ‘bad’ the Soviet TT vehicles are (even the broken ones) I think I know where their perceptions are coming from.
It would appear that the average RU TT player does indeed press W and roll their face across the keyboard…

Surely one day an Mod Sees it and says, hes right (pray)

ofc im right, broken CAS can only do so much for mid tanks and an even more mid playerbase.
I agree but it is quite hard to objectively measure vehicle performance with such a diverse playerbase skillwise. My problem is much more that Gaijin refuses to use BR properly. Why artificially gimp western equipment when you can just up it in BR. Like make Eurofighters into the beasts they should be and put them into 15.0 with the Rafale. Im sure people here would rather have a proper EF in a higher BR than a gimped one at the same level as the SU30
But then russia has no top tier anymore and that’s a big no no
yeah i know. On one hand i understand that Gaijin doesnt want to exclude USSR players from top tier but on the other hand i think it heavily damages the games claim to be realistic
100% agreed and always have done. This is precisely why we need BR variance with ordinance/mods too. Have one vehicle, fully matched to its real life capability, and adjust its BR based on the resulting statistics. The vehicle’s performance should never be the balancing tool. If we can have 80s vehicles in the 4.0 region for the sake of keeping them capable, there’s no harm in having a 2010s russian vehicle fighting a 1990s blufor vehicle, provided they’re both matching their irl performance.
This issue is as you said especially prominent with the EF/Rafale which are both exceptionally capable aircraft limited heavily in game. They should be improved to realistic performance irrelevant of what the “balance” effect would be, because balance can be compensated for by pushing them up in BR.
And you may be thinking - “What if the balanced BR is so high that it can only fight itself?”
In that case, we should really be asking: “Should it be in the game yet?”

I think the main problem is that they’re trying to put the EF and Rafale at the Su-30 level while it should be the Su-35 and MiG-35 at least as the respective counterpart. The EF and Rafale were introduced too early and now they have problems to up the game of the other nations to keep up, so they have to “slow them down”.
And the real concern is what happens when gaijin adds the “next big thing” and the EF/Rafale are forgotten and never updated to meet the standards they should be able to because they weren’t at that standard on addition?
bait used to be believable.
This thread gets no rest lmfao
Welcome to UK vehicle threads. Silence for 3 days and then it’s hell for 3.
Maybe because it wasn’t meant as bait but rather sarcastically?
