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

im gonna go on a rant about the statements made in the new br change list because it seems wrong in a lot of ways

Starting off
image
its said the su30MK2 AMV and Su30MKK perform similarly to the aircraft at there br. this is wrong when it comes to rank 8 premiums the su30MKK specifically is at the top with the su30mk2 being being worse due to well mostly russian players, when it comes to K/D the su30MKK is performing fine along with 13.7 jets even performing better than the F2 and J11B as seen here


the plane performing along with tech tree vehicles at either the same or a higher br mostly means the vehicle is overperforming in its current br as its a premium mostly bought by lower level less skilled players leading to worse performance but it isnt because if you dont count player statistics and just go off what the vehicle has in terms of missile count etc it is easily the best 13.3 jet and the only reason i cant see them being moved up is because there making to much money from it

we also have the infamous BMPT still causing issues after 5 months since its release
image
according to this there “data” shows the bmpt is fine with only moving up 1 br step to 11.7 even though while the time its been at 11.3 the 10.3-12.3 br brackets have been mostly dominated by the bmpts


this shows the winrates for all nations last month and the jump in russias winrate around the BR is very clear considering everything around is sitting in the low 40s with some even going into mid 30s except china that gets teamed with russia a lot of the time, the vehicle is very clearly to strong for 11.3 and 11.7 will make a very minimal change to its performance as players bring the bmpt in there top tier lineups and do fine with it due to it being a T-90 hull with a stronger LFP and a turret that cant destroy the tank due to bad modelling on there end and you could make the argument that the NAMER at the same br cant be killed when hull down either but theres a very clear difference here with the namers terrible bushmaster cannon and spikes which dont much compared to the bmpts 4 vikhr missiles 2 30mm guns with better accuracy and an ammo box because “gaijin wanted to give it one”

the final thing because im getting bored
image
just about the only good thing to come out of the br changes is recognition of the M61 APHE shell for the brits but ive still got my money on them forgetting about it in a few months time and this statement going absolutely nowhere.

Long story short for people who dont want to read the whole thing is basically both the su30 statement and the bmpt statement are just incorrect and probably the only reason there not doing much about it is because of money like always except the tech tree bmpt

There is no ETA currently but it is indeed a bug and not a suggestion. So will be treated as such.

The memes will be everywhere when it gets added lol

Yeah, that’s something to be careful about in-game though. Some try to pull the “but i wasn’t saying the bad word in English, i was saying this other word in this other language” as a way to try to circumvent moderation (a vast majority of the time it’s painfully obvious that that isn’t what they were doing because the word in the other language doesn’t make sense in the context).

Also you’ll be lucky if snail even gives it a single other camo choice. That’s not a nation they like lol

when the arjun eventually gets added with the penetration you know what blast shell would the name have to be altered do you think?

Yeah there’s definitely some words that are pretty close to some sus words lmao

so when F15IA or F15SG for better jet to Israel tech tree?

SAAF Hawk dispensing CMs (iirc)

Finnish Hawk rear… I’m not too familiar with our hawks… and tbf it’d get a gunpod from the whole “it’s compatible” yada yada.

The Finnish Hawks don’t have CM’s only the later model hawks have them

Interesting… something something MiG-25PD )))))))))

Anyways, doubt it’ll come but even with dubious CMs I’d be happy.

It would be like giving the vehicle a new tail section just to give it flares, it simply doesn’t have another variant of the 51 to get flares from

Well it won’t come because it’s Finnish and if it does it’ll be another premium vehicle

It’d be some 400k SRP squadron vic knowing my luck…

Definitely not name the last Finnish vehicle that wasn’t the hornet and was TT

I actually can’t remember, maybe the Leo Marksman? So like 2 years ago?

Gaijin also doesn’t like Finland air. There’s just way too many counterpoints to even have slight cope that they would get their hawks.

9030FIN I think? Was the update after ItPSv.

Still about 2 years though I suppose.

Yikes terrible track record for adding vehicles

I have zero connection to development and no contact with the developers. I have no idea :)
