Strange, Moving F-15A down from 13.0 to 12.7 didn’t made Harrier GR.7 moves to 12.0, and it didn’t caused F-4S moves to 11.7.
Also, moving F-86A-5 down from 8.3 to 8.0 didn’t make Vampire FB.5 moves to 7.7.
Typical double standard of Gaijin, ngl.
I mean, lowering F-15A was awful idea, but if that is our new normal by Gaijin
Apart from BR compression and garbage matchmaker balance, the harrier gr.7 isn’t bad for the BR at 12.3.
I don’t think it should go lower right now, and there are planes doing worse than it around that BR
True.
The harrier GR.7 would be too good for 11.7, since the A-10C is certainly not undertiered. And apply actual logic will mean that more things have to go down as well.
The F-15A and Harrier are entirely different aircraft, that’s why.
Gaijin is blind to aircraft that aren’t part of the same type.
It’s not a double standard because there’s no standard that deals with this issue to begin with, Gaijin is just blind to overarching impacts and hyper-focused on like-vehicles.
It’s why BMPT came in at a low BR, because Gaijin didn’t have a like-vehicle to compare it to and didn’t know overarching impacts.
The mirage could be lowered too along with any other over BR’d strike aircraft- no fox 1 at 12.3 while the other 12.3 does is crazy work. Theres ground ratings so it should come down to A2A performance only. Alot lot of dusty jets that could be fun if they were not rated by bombing bases etc
I would make a thread about the Kurnass 2k but I don’t rlly have the time
That thing has to be in a miserable spot rn
I wont go near it lol- The Kfir at 12.0 is enough pain.
Gaijin need to play their game and realise alot of the old jets are dead and zero fun. Maybe the mirage 12.7 and kfir were good back in the day but now they are just food. Plenty of other examples exist all over.
Upgrade tweaks or lower BRs are desperately needed. Fix Mirage 2k radar for EG as its blind.
if that is true, damn shame.
I think Harrier GR.7 could’ve been 12.3 if the BR bracket weren’t this FUBAR.
But in this new normal, which Netz and Kurnass 2000 share the same BR
Harrier GR.7 and Tonka with 9M cannot remain 12.3BR atm.
+1, one of the most straightfowardly writen sentence which I saw from you.
I agree about this part. Shame on them.
Just saying with no offence, especially when your talking style is usually being seen as Gaijin shill
Well… in a paper or dictionary, you could be right, but probably we both know that it definitely acts as a double standard in contexts.
Some planes are getting babysitted because Gaijin is hyper-focused on those
Other planes are getting neglected because Gaijin don’t give any focus on those…
Gaijin’s biggest balancing flaw is their lack of knowledge on how to compare different vehicles’ capabilities to account for overarching impacts of balancing decisions.
This is ultimately the root cause of all BR compression.
No offense taken.
If we could get a number of people to make these comparisons in the next BR change topic, we could potentially convince Gaijin of this issue.
Harrier GR7 sharing BR with F-18A, Mig-21 Bison, etc.
F-16A, F-14A, F-15A, etc sharing BRs.
F-14B, Su-33, Shar2, etc sharing BRs.
F-16A ADF, Su-30Mk2, etc sharing BRs.
And so forth.
If we justify BR changes with those comparisons in every post we do, I think they just might see the pattern.
