Shoutout to the most obvious answer of “Stop making uptiers and downtiers 1.0 and instead make them .3”

I mean, I kinda also like the answer “JUST DON’T GIVE 10.0/10.3 JETS ALL-ASPECT MISSILES”
Nah 10.X is a good place for modern aircraft to start. Just dont give old 1950s jets anything close to their matches.
Or extend the BR brackets to 15.0
They can start at 10.x no problem, but not with all-aspect missiles.
If the BR ceiling wasn’t way too low the A-10s, A-6E, Su-25/K and Sea Harriers could easily go up 2 or 3 BR steps
There’s no excuse for a plane that’s from the 1950s, no CCIP, Gunsight, horrible handling, subsonic, no guided bombs, SRAAMs only (even though F6 never used them), no countermeasures or RWR to be facing supersonic cold war fighter jets with R60Ms, CCIP, radar gunsights, radar missiles, countermeasures, RWR, and amazing handling

If ground was easier to figure out where compression was things would be easier to manage.
From what I’ve analyzed, 2.3 - 10.0 is compressed, and far more than air.
i’d say the F-86s are less overtiered than these pieces of hot garbage
Yep, I was just putting Thailand and Korea in relation. I am aware that this is a much more complicated topic, including aspects most of us don’t even think about.
Can’t speak much about ground, only played britain so far and haven’t quite reached top tier with them yet
Britain being in a weird place due to the way APHE is overperforming in most cases, I’d still say the area up to 4.7 isn’t very compressed for ground, but otherwise yeah, its the wild west out there
If only gaijin could focus on fixing issues like the compression instead of just piling more stuff ontop
Britian for the most part, i’d say from 1.0 to around 7.0/8.0 ground is fine.
its when you go to 8.7+, you’ll see yourself outclassed by your so-called “peers” at every step
As they add more aircraft, it’ll at least force them to look at ground more.
Analyzing 2000+ vehicles takes time tho.
the compression of Jets is on another level
I mean, britain could very well serve as the baseline with how much more effort it takes to play their tanks while nations like the US, USSR and Germany usually have APHE just do most of the job for them
the biggest problem with air br is that they want to keep it relativ close to ground br so that air assets are useable in ground battles, just doesnt work out that well, could all be resovled with seperate ground and air br but oh well we know their opinion on that

Eh, not really. The only jet with BR related to ground RB is Tornado IDS with GBUs.
Separate ground & air BRs would only exist on one aircraft, so it’s an unnecessary feature that decompression fixes.
jets are to compressed and would need to be spread apart furhter, if they did that we would already end up with like 13.0 br, which makes the newest top tier planes problematic to match in grb
Pretty sure there are more planes that could be way lower in ARB if they added seperate BRs
The Buccaneers for instance
The UK is definitely one of those nations that aren’t even remotely the first pick for most players. USA and USSR are the big ones. Germany for people who want to larp as a Tiger tank commander and then the rest I think are for people who either: Like the designs of the country, played Battlefield 4, or were born there.
UK struggles, and sometimes, for good reason. They aren’t the best. But they’re forced into worse positions by Gaijin that makes a difficult nation to play feel like CIA torture techniques

And ground is even more compressed than air.
Decompression fixes the problem.
@KhorneFlakez1337
Buccaneers are their BR for their air RB performance, there’s a reason they’re rarely used in ground RB.
