Tiger 1 from 1942 facing 1970 M109, it needs to be fixed asap.
Also there’s weird differences in thermal gen and missiles:
- Beam riding missiles currently are just better in terms of getting to the crosshair, not dipping into the ground immediately, or just missing entirely (in the case of the top-attack Spikes). Also tandem missiles not functioning as tandem missiles is a big issue.
- As for thermals, they seem to have no influence on BR at all. You’ve got three different M1A2s at 11.7, all with different thermal gens, meanwhile the 120S has second-gen thermals at 10.0. Not to mention most 9.0-9.3 tanks having only first gen thermals, but 9.7-10.0 mainly get second- or third-gen thermals.
Making use of all decimal points for BR would help with these situations as well. If something is a direct upgrade but also not 0.3-better material, raise it by 0.1 or 0.2.
Agreed, the fact the Chally 2 (base) is only 0.3 BR lower than the 2A7V is just insane to me.
The fact that 2A7 is the same BR with any other tank is insane.
It should have a separate BR all on it’s own
Well, and the 122s:
Basically, MBTs full of strengths with no weaknesses at all.
I would say, factoring vehicles currently ingame and setting the top at 13.7 and also accounting for bug fixes and historical corrections regarding armor and mobility;
13.7:
Leopard 2A7HU (with historical DM63)
Leopard 2A7V (with historical DM63)
Strv 122B+
Strv 122B PLSS
Strv 122A
13.3:
T-90M
T-80BVM
Type 10
TKX
ZTZ-99A
WZ1001(E) LCT
VT4A1
M1A2 SEPv2 (with historical M829A3)
Merkava Mk.4M
Merkava Mk.4LIC
Merkava Mk.4B
13.0:
M1A2 SEP
M1A1 AIM (with historical KEW-A2)
Challenger 2E
Challenger 3 (TD) (with historical DM63)
T-80U-E1
Leclerc S.XXI
Leclerc AZUR
Leclerc S.2
Leopard 2A6
Leopard 2A5
Leopard 2 PSO
12.7:
M1A2
M1A1 HC
Leopard 2 PL (with historical DM63)
Leopard 2A4CAN (with historical DM53)
Black Night
Challenger 2
Leclerc S.1
T-72B3
T-80UK
T-80U
12.3:
M1A1
Challenger 2 (2F)
Challenger 2 TES
Challenger 2 OES
Type 90 (B)
Type 90
Ariete AMV
12.0:
IPM1
Ariete
Ariete PSO
Merkava Mk.3C
Merkava Mk.3B
T-90A
ZTZ-99-III
ZTZ-99-II
MBT-2000
Basically; what’s currently cramped into 11.0-11.7, should actually be spread between 12.0 and 13.7. And the extra BR from 11.0 to 12.0 would come from decompressing lower BRs as well.
They were 2A7 in my mind anyway, before 2A7 was added lol
I would put the T-90M below BVM, it really is nothing special. İt’s kind of bad.
I never even use it, instead I use the BVM. it has subpar mobility with exploding fuel tanks, and the worst reload of top tier. (Almost 2x of Type-10 and 1.6-7x of Abrams lol)
My only true top tier nations in ground are Germany and USSR, so will not comment on the rest.
Fighting Vs them is not good enough experience.
I won’t comment on things I haven’t used
Whilst I understand why you’ve done it, I strongly doubt hte Challenger 2 will be higher than the 2F, OES or TES.
Quite the opposite; they are modelled as “external fuel tanks” due to their technology and spall liner coating, they never explode like T-80BVM’s do.
Hahahah
Wise!
Most likely… xD
Okay, this is where I disagree.
IPM1 is not helpless in any way against 2A7V and T-90M.
IPM1 to T-90M is M46 to Maus armor wise.
Leopard 2A7V (2021), compared to IPM1 (1984), is;
+81% better hull armor (670 vs 370)
+67% better turret armor (800 vs 480)
+26% better penetration (652 vs 522)
+66% better thermals (3rd gen vs 1st gen)
+100% thermals (+commander)
+100% spall liners (fully coated vs none at all)
There is not a single universe in which these should face each other at all.
Shouldn’t the 2A4M CAN be on this list? It’s also missing its historical shells from what I’ve gathered( it also has shells it never used)
I missed it, gonna update it!
They shouldn’t but are you telling me the 9.0 tank has a better chance vs the Premium 10.3 lineups?
What?
An IPM1 has a better chance facing a T-90/2A7 than a 9.3 tank facing a T-80UD or Leopard 2A4 premium
…?
You highlighted the top of the game, the biggest issue for lots of players is the 10.3 premium/squadron line-ups that suck up everything. These tanks are pushed so much that the tech tree 9.3 tanks like a T-64A or a Chieftain Mk10 are expected to face hordes of Leopard 2A4s a tank they cannot penetrate reliably.
We need decompression
Well, and I indeed acknowledged and took into account decompression of other BR ranges even though the post is mostly directed at the top tiers, yes.
A full tree decompress is needed for air, ground and even naval. But top tier needs it first. with 1-2 full BRs crammed into 0.3 BRs of space. Its a total mess.
