The 10.0 - 11.0 structure for ground doesn’t make much sense and just seems a bit one sided towards Russia, let me explain.
After I finished the Uk ground forces tech tree I moved onto Germany as the premium Leopard 2 had just come out, it was one of my first premium vehicles in the game and I quite in enjoyed the gameplay of it compared to British Vehicles. At the time the Leopard 2 was at 10.3 which was a good battle rating for it as it matched perfectly with other nations and was decently balanced, same with Russia which had the 2S38 (this one can be talked over), t72Av and bmp2-m which were all at 10.3. Each game played came down to who had the best skilled players, each time I played it was a 50/50 chance (give or take) on who would win. However Gaijin added the event vehicle object 292 which was spammed constantly and made any MBT feel like a light tank, it was a very boring time to play as it felt like you were just being up tiered as the 292 could pen you everywhere. Over the time though it died out and things went back to normal. But one update (can’t remember which one) Gaijined did a BR change for all Nato Vehicles which changed their BR from 10.3 → 10.7. Now I have a couple of problems with this.
In the current state of War Thunder having vehicles that should be at 10.3 which are at 10.7 which are facing against vehicles of 11.7 is quite unfair and boring. Pretty much every game teams will get wiped by T80U-E1 players running march 1 around the battle field, 4s auto loading type 90 Fuji and stuff which has 500mm+ pen which turns your MBT into a light tank. Now a lot of people will think i’m a German premium main crying about stuff but I have grinded out a couple other nations to find out their POV. I found that other vehicles which had received the same treatment like the US with the M1 Abrams at 10.7, M1 KVT, Germany Leopard 2A4, Leopard 2 (PzBtl 123), UK Challenger Mk3, Challenger DS, Italy Leopard 2A4, France Leopard 2A4NL, Sweden Strv 121, Christian ll. All these vehicles were suffering from the same problem of facing against much stronger vehicles when full up tiers or even slight up tiers.
The solution:
I would (please mention and that I have missed) back down to 10.3 as there are so many 11.7 MBT’s (both premium and non premium) which have popped up and turned these vehicles into butter, I’ve playing 11.7 Russia and wiped the floor against every 10.7 NATO team without dying once. Returning these vehicles back to 10.3 would then allow them to shine in the right spot and bring back a sort of stable 10.0 - 11.0 area for any NATO enjoyers and rejuvenate interest for both old and new players.
Full List Of Changes I would Do:
US
M1 Abrams 10.7 → 10.3
M1 KVT 10.7 → 10.0 (This vehicle should go down to 10 as placing it at 10.7 is a scam for your money)
Germany
Leopard 2A4 10.7 → 10.3
Leopard2 (PzBtl 123) 10.7 → 10.3
