“the Japanese aircraft tree now features many new aircraft, including Thai aircraft that fill enough spots and cover various Battle Ratings so that this can happen”
But the introduction of the Thai sub tree provided the replacements around this BR.
Then you gotta try to rebuttal those corpo supporters who claims the devs would have personal bias if they played the game. They can have whatever bias they want, it is the balancing teams job to make them placed at a right BR. Plus common sense.
2S38 im not sure if its a right case, I wouldnt play that tank but at least it seems pretty good. A good case to discuss would be the jumbo or hellcat.
I must admit that there is a gap between stats and individual players, which is hard to measure, and given that we can’t use the full data, it would be even worse if we just used Thunderskill’s data, so it makes far more sense to use individual player data for side-by-side comparisons rather than a single efficiency comparison
At the very least, make the sample pool for players that has grinded a good portion of the tree, and only counts the stats after around 100 games. Games that balances around a chart only considers high-ranks too.
Smin ill be honest. In ARB the F-84 isnt a good enough replacement for the R2Y2’s. Sure its a fine replacement for GRB but the gane isnt just the ground mode
The R2Y2 is also grossly over BR’d in air modes. Yall need to quite using legacy stats to balance stuff because it results in stuff being stuck at a BR where they are near useless resulting in people not playing it thus the stats still looking “good” years later
I just find it sad 3 vehicles are being removed and we get 1 in return.
Not only that. But at rank V and above Japan only has 7 unique vehicles, from which 3 are being removed right now, leaving only 4 unique vehicles.
There arent probably going to be any replacements for them, since we have the F-84 at the same br’ish.
Not only that, but the vehicles that are going to be added, are most likely going to be full C&P from other nations, which also dont get the 4x cannons like the R2Y2’s have.
Copy and paste isnt an issue especially if there arent any other available options. With the case kf the R2Y2 they have it pretty clearly labelled as a fighter and not a strike aircraft so for air modes replacing it with a vehicle of entirely different function isnt good and is extemely lazy. It would be better to either add a fighter in its place or do the minimum and make the R2Y2’s strike aircraft
In that case, it would be possible to remove the A-7E and AV-8S Late from the fighter line, and add them to the line of naval aviation, where the R2Y2 is now? Since these are naval aviation aircraft, not fighter aircraft, especially Japanese ones
compare it to the other autocannon vehicles at 10.3 and you see it does compare a good bit better then those. It is a strong ground vehicle and additionaly excels at anti air capability to a degree none of the other 10.3 autocannon vehciles is capable of
Most IFVs at 10.3 are worse than every other vehicle at 10.3, in fact at high tier I would argue IFVs are the worst vehicle type. And the 2S38 is not an IFV.
If we examine its capabilities and compare them to actually good 10.3 vehicles, it’s balanced. The only thing it has going for it is a decent penetration in terms of its light tank capability. Mobility is mediocre, survivability is perhaps the worst of any non open topped ground vehicle, and the dart doesn’t spall very much.
