Historical Battle Rating discussion

this still means there is only 0.6br spread at most which is insanely compressed

proof: yak-3 (4.3 currently) will routinely face hurricanes, mk1 spitfires, P-40 variants, etc

No, it would be on tue allies side, and with a decent map mechanic it would only fight on eastern map, mostly against getmany

And it would be moved to 3.0 hurricane’s and Warhawks would be 2.0-2.7

ok, it would still face extremely underpowered planes in comparison to it by virtue of it coming out in 1943 irl and facing the 1941 bracket as you showed

Ok, all the way compressions would make it face 1943/1944 vehicle’s, happy now?

Don’t understand what you’re saying here

Just make it so 1.0 can only face 1.0, if you want to face 1.3 put a 1.3 in your line up

Sane for all the other BRs

then there’d be like 4 different planes in a match

There already are

insane post.

Wdym?

Good or bad?

Custom battles exist for a reason.

Era limit would be inherently unfun and imbalanced.
Realism is not history, and history is not realism.

Ah, so unrealistic arcade nonsense that makes things even less fun and imbalanced…

Every single time… Every time someone tries to peddle this, they come up with the least realistic features to try and justify it.
“We’ll have artificial limits on vehicles to force players to play vehicles they don’t want to play.”
“We’ll have Abrams fighting Type 61s.”
So on and so forth…

What would you do then?

Im not suggesting anything i just want to hear what you guys think

The BR system, it allows the developer to make mobility, ammunition, and armor to publicly available documents then change the BR based on capabilities of each vehicle.
For air it’s climb rate, weapons & defenses, airframe performance…

It is the best system any company has come up with for dealing with vehicles that allow them to model them realistically.
Every other game that does not use a BR system changes mobility, ammunition, and/or armor.

World of Tanks changes mobility and ammo, but they model armor correctly.

And fair if you’re not suggesting this, many of us are on edge from historical battles suggestions and we may seem hostile when we have nothing against you personally.

How would you do it? BR or event?

The only viable form of “historical battle” is not ratings, but specially curated events.

Like those KRABB_NATION does for simmers, and occasionally WingalingDragon.

Like, we will be having a D-Day re-enactment in custom sim battles come June 28.

These are the pre-picked vehicles people can use:

This works because KRAB and company will actively take care to basically act like Dungeon Masters for a D&D game and personally control who spawns what and when and direct us to do stuff.

Also, if you wanna do historical battles - STRONGLY recommend you join Team Sim/KRABB_NATION discords.

Tank SB is basically same as GRB just commander view/gunner view only.

Plane SB - bombers and attackers are fairly low-effort to learn. I can share my MnK setup for fighters if anyone’s interested: https://www.reddit.com/r/WarthunderSim/comments/1la109e/good_starting_equipment/mxhzhev/
