New BR brackets for SB

When is the new BR rotation available in game?

We don’t know yet. They’re gonna release a new post on the updated BR changes after the feedback thread, and then likely implement it that same day or a few days after it. My guess is we get it before end of week

now that I look at it again, I realize that it might make sense to put the old F-4C back out of the mothballs on deck (which I had completely forgotten) as an alternative to the F-4E. 10.3 is at the top of rotation 1 and rotation 4.

as an American you always have the problem that you often always have the early versions of a jet. while other nations have late versions of the same aircraft. that was the case with the F-86. USA gets the ones from the Korean War. all other nations get the F-86 from the post-Korean War period. it’s similar with the Phantoms. and I think there will be a similar development with the F-16 and F-15?!

I propose to change the pracket for Rotation 3 to 11.0-12.0. This will allow one rotation with 12.0 Top BR and also competitive 12.3-12.7 Rotation for Top Tier at the same time.

It’s gonna be really weird not having a rotation were 11.0 is the top on EC8.
I guess that will change the moment they add 13.0 planes.

But it seems unbalanced:
11.7 max for 3 rotations of 4
10.3 max for 2 rotations of 4
11.0 max for 0 rotations of 4

Snail logic.

It is possible now if they wanted, but I dont think we’ll get a new rotation until 13.3 gets added, just gets a little messy with only a 13. I tried.

The 3 brackets with 11.7 at max though actually isnt that big of a deal, currently there are 0nly 6 11.7s. 1 of those is probably going to 12 (have to wait for next round BR changes) and 2 are CAS.

Or it’s gonna be a big a problem because everyone is gonna want to fly a couple of countries, and matches will be very unbalanced …

Maybe… Im just excited to finally be able to fly in the tornado F3 against something other than Mig-29s and Su-27s

When will these changes go live? I didn’t see a date on the post.

I’m guessing sometime this week we’ll have either a release or another round of corrections to discuss

The one that should be 12.3 aswell as 2000C-S5?
F-14A also should have been upgraded since M2K CS5 is going up to.

12.0, all the others are going 11.7 to 12.0.

F-14A, maybe. I can see why they left it at 11.7. maybe if it got 9Ls

The absolute most important thing out of all this is, we NEED that 11.0 bracket. Preferably two occurrences of 11.0.

You mean brackets where 11.0 is fully downtiered?

Look, I love my 11.0 jets, they are my favourite. But we 11.0 got handed the short straw with the new brackets, just like 11.7 is always facing top tier now. At least 11.0 isn’t facing 12.3 2 out of 4 rotations now, I prefer these new brackets

I’m also excited about the max 11.7 brackets. But we definitely don’t need 3 of them, while leaving max 11.0 completely absent from the bracket rotation.

I hope this was just a misprint, and that 11.0 was never planned to be left out.

I think they don’t like 2 BR brackets. They always need to be 3. Which just forced the situation.

I’ll destroy you with AV-8B+ or Mirage-2000S4 :P

Jokes apart, I’m start flying those 2 tornados now.

hehe

Yeah. The F3 is going to be quite exciting and whilst i’ve never stopped flying the Gr1, even against 12.3s. Its going to be drastically easier than before.

But it was such a shame that the F3/ADV were ever at 11.7. I think they should and still could be at 11.3

So? Anyone checked already where we stand to day with the brackets?

Which rotation we’re in today? 4 as per old schedule, or did they start with 1 today?

Looks like 4
