Btw, i was re-reading the news article, and i particularly like this passage:
“When we sat down to make these changes, we also realized that we could carefully look into the position and ranks of all vehicles, and streamline them where possible. Therefore, we are not only reducing the amount of vehicles to research to progress down a tree by grouping vehicles, but we are also making trees more logical and better structured — taking into account the large number of vehicles that have been added to the game in the past few years.”
i mean, i wouldn’t call their trees “more logical”; if you only look at AB BRs maybe, but… do you think grouping different vehicles is logical? or getting later variants before earlier ones?
i don’t know you, but it doesn’t sound logical to me.
If you own the vehicle already. If you don’t it’s now harder to get in most cases.
There’s a few obvious winners out of this, like XP-55 and XF5F owners as one example. Some losers, sure.
I’d just say you were always gonna get more vehicles moving across the line from rk3 to rk2 than the other way when you did any refoldering of rank 1 and 2. The whole point is to speed progression, because there’s an unbalanced amount of play along the rank progression now, and people are taking too long now to get into late-game. That meant the average BR people used for daily challenges was also going to need to go up, inevitably. It’s not a bug, it’s a feature, so trying to talk them out of it here seems pretty pointless.
People do this same thing with BR change lists, always offering their elaborate counter lists. This never ever works. As with those, there’s going to be minor changes around the edges. Just roll with it folks, there’s always another update where any real bad decisions will get undone.
Br based taks were quite nice and solved lots of issues but creating at least the issue with naval Bluewater that made some tasks insanely easy and reduced the grind needed for some tasks to 0. Im not that knowledgeable on what happened there and why exactly br based tasks are gone.
The 2A5 and 2A6 have minor differences so one isn’t necessarily better than the other. I’d pick the PSO over the 2A6 any time of the week especially because of the increased protection.
If you define “this forum” only as people complaining on this one thread about it, maybe. I don’t think the majority of even all forum users would want to see the other good stuff in this update delayed further over this. And that number itself is an infinitesimally small part of the player base.
Forum griping has its place, I do it a lot too, we all pay $, we all have an unchallenged right to gripe here. I just think the amount of whining this last month or two on this forum, over this, the T-90S, yadda yadda yadda, could actually be getting to the point where it’s got to be depressing both forum participation and even game participation now. And that would be sad. Maybe just let it roll now and if it’s as bad as you say, take the W for calling it now, is all.
Well i do hope for separate live feedback post on this even tho its kinda getting very sizeable by now lmao if they change some stuff maybe. They did pretty much fix the most eye hurting one and we shall see how the broad player base reacts. Pretty sure it will be added anyway and we have to work from there as you say. I think there’s more of people on forum that play grb only and have few prems here and there and couldn’t care less about bad air changes.
not really. the canonstang is with an alison engine and the c model and d models are with a merlin engine thus having far better climb rate and top speed. the canonstang is perfect where it is. it takes half
the match to climb any altitude and then you can be only a support fighter at most and hope to get a couple of kills if the teammates in the OP russian planes haven’t cleaned up already. and it shouldn’t be moving at all really. the p-51c is possibly the best mustang in game when taking fm, speed, engine and climb combined as metrics. i’m talking RB though, you might be referring to AB.
yeah yeah, I play AB where most flight models are pretty wacky, I don’t even play US too much anymore as most all the fighters have a flight model resembling a bobble on a string, so . . . not my favorite things to fly. Heck, I even got a Corsair to go into a flat spin simply doing a banked turn using the elevators . . . lol, I think they fixed that, but still . . . really only good for diving on people that aren’t paying attn, not my play style too much. I like turn/dogfighting and frankly . . besides P-39 & P-63 models . . not much else can even attempt it in AB . . C’est la Vie
i was surprised at first, but if you look at AB the P-51 is at 4.0 like the P-51D-5, while the P-51C is a 3.7; so by gaijin’s logic you get the Charlie first and then the other 2;
The Me 410 A-1/U4 and B-1/U4 really do not deserve to be nerfed to Rank II, they should stay at Rank III they are one if not the best German dedicated AT Planes. Its really good for Daily tasks and Reseach.
No, he speaks for himself only. Just because people agree with his blank statement does not mean he speaks for them, unless you feel like removing any agency from yourself and letting him speak for you.
I don’t understand how this is so hard for them to grasp. Anyone wanting to progress through the South African line will have to eventually research both folders anyway and spend the exact same amount of RP.
Foldering vehicles due to having “such a close BR” is a ridiculous idea. We all know it’s going to take them 10x longer to adjust those folders than it is to adjust the battle ratings.
its actually a good thing that the 103’s are getting grouped for new players. in this update anything that isnt the first in the group has 50% less rp making them easier for new players to get.
