It is a different role, but I doubt that prevents it from being considered the top tier vehicle in a lineup if it comes to it, right now in a 7.3 game against an IS-6 there is no tech tree vehicle equal to it.
The Onion of survivability. I haven’t heard that in years.
After adopting it + headphones, my performance improved significantly.
I don’t get the new BR changes. I tried playing a 6.7 line-up, and was low tier every battle. I played a 6.3 line-up…low tier. I played a 7.7 line-up…low tier. Hmm. 7.0? Low tier.
Oh look, the maps are getting smaller.
they should of not done anything at all then. if it’s not what the community wants why would they do something else…
Dude, it’s not 2019 anymore.
Welcome to War Thunder!
Germany & America players suffer… from something I won’t mention.
And Russian… it is called over population resulting in poor data collection and so no real balance. But balancing with 10 nations, plus air involvement, and all the variety (or not depending on nation) across each BR increment is just a recipe for… current War Thunder.
Players pushing as high as possible and as quickly as possible and mainly focused on popular nations means most games are naff.
One recent game I had we were losing fast but managed to pull it even to last the full duration with us slightly ahead on tickets but otherwise on the back foot (SPAA and a light Swiss TD with no armor, not the PkvII, and whatever I ended up in maybe my 5.7. Japan). Hurtgen Forest, cap control even, one of my side was adamant we should push on in the last 2 minutes despite my advice to win (winning means better modifiers in my mind). Fortunately the two deaths due to the enemy in much stronger vehicles happened just as we got through the last ten seconds and saw my two teamies die after it ended. I am never sure why people actively try to lose.
Since win rate is all down to individual players and not teams it gets annoying to be so bad I can’t carry every game!
8.0 and 9.3 are now 100% (near enough) uptiers. 8.3 and 9.0 might as well be as well. You decompressed the entire top 3rd of the spread to give a minority player base an easier time in frankly a BR range that wasn’t bad. Some nations may have had it a little worse off but thats the case for one nation or another at any BR you choose. 0.7 BR spreads and decompress 9.3+. Queue times WILL NOT be an issue.
QUEUE. TIMES. WILL. NOT. BE. AN. ISSUE. Somebody translate this into correct Russian.
compressed top 3rd***
They have to separate the BR A 0.7 into overtiered figures, because after the BR change it has become somewhat absurd, how can you pit a 1951 T54 against the XM803, Type 69 IIG or Chieftain Mk10, it is completely crazy. If they are going to do things so important, they should first look even a little at the problems it could generate, instead of modifying important things without testing or paying a little attention to what they are doing.
Yes, it made 2WW tanks see fewer Heat-Fs, but at the cost of destroying several Br, like 8.0.
