If only Gaijin would balance vehicles based on their specs, rather than average player performance
I remember F-15A variants during air superiority release too were 0.3 BR lower than gripen A and Su27s lol
I can see the logic behind this. Say what you want about US (and somehow JP?) mains, but f-15’s were THE worst performing 13.0’s as of this patch (K/B and K/D-wise). The only thing coming even close was the French IR-only F-16 at 13.0, and guess what:

So yeah. Chain of thought is pretty evident here.
Unless something catastrophic happens, when BR changes reach the point of my datamines, they almost always go live the next day (EU morning).
As always, the solution should be even more decompression, but for whatever reason, Gaijin insists on lowering the BRs of vehicles that underperform according to their statistics
Somehow they always manage to introduce more compression whenever they give us even the slightest amount of decompression somewhere else
They want to make sure their wallet warriors with an attention span of 5 seconds don’t have to wait for more than those 5 seconds before getting a match
Absolutely tragic.
The F15As are not too high in BR, that is not the issue… everything above it is too low. Idk what to tell you.
Hell they could have also given the 13.0 F-15s AIM-7P and see what happens if they really really didn’t want to decompress.
You are not in need of telling me anything - the deed is done, Rubicon has been crossed regardless of your opinion on the matter.
Heres some food for thouhght - how is it possible for a TT vehicle, PRESUMABLY played by people specifically going for it instead of “muh toptier”, to have exactly the same stats as the infamous F-4S, a.k.a. the Holy Grail of so-called premium noobs and generic US mains? How does that happen in your world?
Nah man, the F-15A obviously is worse than the Mirage 4000 and somehow on the same level as the Mirage 2000C-S4, MiG-29As, Yak-141 and premium F/A-18s
And don’t even get me started on those technological marvels that are the JA37DI, Tornado F.3 Late and the Sea Harrier FA.2
“Oh the F-15C GE suffers where it is? Alright lemme put the F-15A lower real quick”
I refuse to touch 12.0 Mirage F1…
Constant uptiers against 12.7 and 13.0 already make it pointless, can’t even begin to imagine now that half the 13.0s will be 12.7s…
And here I was, thinking they would be going to decompress that BR range… and they go and do the opposite lmao
Do you know if the devs have considered the BR of the KF41 compared to the CRV? They are pretty similar in their characteristics, so it is could be fitting for them to have the same BR of 10.7
Not to say that the F-15A going down in BR isn’t going to hurt the Mirage F1, but I really cannot agree with the notion that the Mirage F1 sucks at 12.0
It’s an amazing plane, especially now that you can carry a boatload of both chaff and flares
Pov me who was planning to grind that very plane… guess it’s time to drop France for some time and go play the low tiers of others nations
Hey. Its not in any plans currently.
R73 for MiG29(9-12)?
F16-15 with aim9M is going to 12.7 (and it gets MAW system), any hope for the poor MiG29s (9-12 and sniper)
Its not planned within the current changes, though the MiG-29 series as a whole will be monitored with the current changes in mind.
Hey @Smin1080p_WT, I’m sure you saw how the BR changes spreadsheet was updated a bit sooner on the Chinese side than on the English side. However, the language barrier seems to have caused a bit of a confusion, specifically the plans of the Falcon. Most people I saw think that
计划在下一次版本更新中为其添加雷达
means an actual radar, but some are adamant it’s referring to radar-fuzes, i.e. HE-VTF. I’ve also seen the idea that it’s LRF.
Can you clarify to us, please?
