Next Major Update - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion (Part 1)

Leopard 2A4 with better cheek armor and subpar shell is still 0.3 BRs away from the very best tanks in the entire game. What are they thinking?

12.0 was never enough on the first place, and DM53 was at least a fine band-aid for 2PL… and they remove it…?

Then again, to them, it makes sense that 2A5 and the absolute upgrade 2A7V is are the exact same BR.

Again why have they not adressed the 30mm bushmaster ammo and it horrible performance?

They straight up don’t read our suggesstions.

Like seriously, @Smin1080p_WT, honestly you don’t think a tank with inferior armor, survivability, and supbar firepower (532mm of penetration because the devs still haven’t gotten around to fixing DM43s velocity), should be at the same BR as things like M1A1 HC/Click-Bait that get TOP TIER SHELLS? Please tell me that because I am losing hope.

Give it DM53 for God’s sake, this is a joke beyond jokes.

Well… Sea Harrier FRS1 is moving from 11.3 to 11.0 to 11.3 in a single BR change in Sim. Good job whoever did this update

I’ll do you one better, they read two words and gave up before pulling a “it was revealed to me in a dream”.

What is the point of M1A1 AIM now?

M1A1 HC has now better armor and a significantly better shell at the same BR. Why didn’t they give M1A1 AIM its historical KEW-A2 shell, which would be the equivalent of the M829A2 the HCs are getting?

100% they are giving M829A2 for M1A1 HCs to try help the US WR (instead of fix abrams model, again)

Honestly these changes are very clearly showing they will fight tooth and nail to avoid actual decompression

AMX A-1A is also not being touched, that really surprises me, Its not an 11.3 worthy aircraft, its barely 11.0 worthy

BR is not the only factor that decides price. It’s also Rank and Economics (bonuses etc).

I mean yeah I get it, but once again the point of the BR change is not to improve balance at top tier, it’s to improve the situation from 9.0-11.0 which gets dragged up to top tier.

I’m certain that BR decompression for top tier will come when Gaijin is ready to add more top ground vehicles. But it seems right now they’re focusing on aircraft, since there’s a bit more room to expand there.

My guy, some nations have already reached a dead-end in terms of content. Japan has nothing more left to add, Germany has just 2A7V copy-pastes with Trophy, US has one MBT left, UK has just the Challenger 3 left.

We are in the end game now, and they still haven’t done any proper decompression of BRs (we should’ve been on 13.0 by now, not 12.0), what we have is a circus.

So thats why the F4J(UK) is 12.0 in Sim but the FGR2/FG1 is 11.3. Despite the fact the FGR2/FG1 have more CMs, better engines and better RWR?

Its premium.

But still doesnt explain why the Tornado Gr1, ASSTA1 and A200A are all a higher BR than the WTD61, MFG and A200.

By that explanation, Tornado WTD61 should be 12.0 because it has a higher reward than the other 5

It does have better thermal generation, and if it had the CITV it’s currently missing then I’d say it would be on the same level as the HC and clickbait, but as of now the lackluster firepower and missing CITV are indeed a problem…

Its literally the same rank and soon BR as the T14 which is cheaper, iirc they have similar bonuses also so maybe im missing something but between the 2 the T14 is still cheaper and has a lineup so the 2.8k price doesnt make much sense. Unless they differ greatly in RP/SL modifiers.
