Same with the IDS Tornados
The comments are always closed on the final version of the BR feedback: Battle Rating changes for April 2024 (post feedback)
This is not new or done before anyone can post and not something done to prevent criticism.

I’m waiting gajin add new APFSDS for Leopard 2A7HU, Leopard 2A7V & Challenger 3 TD and increase BR to 12.0 or 12.3 this quarter or march 2025
Hopefully in the next major update gajin add M833 on M1 but not sure battle rating stay 10.3 or increase to 10.7
I might hope gajin add OFL 120 F2 APFSDS for Leclerc S2, Leclerc AZUR and Leclerc SXXI only for in the next major update if new battle rating to 12.0 for Ground RB
As you’ve linked that BR change:
Any comment on when we are getting a top tier ground decompression?
Suggestions for the 5 second reload were indeed taken into consideration with an increase. For now however the 2E and BK are better suited to take the top spots and the 3TD remain where it currently is at 11.7.

Ground BRs have been expanded to 12.0 this update.

Wont change anything. CR3TD is one of the slowest tanks at top tier, has the worst armour of any top tier tank, has no APS… Etc etc etc.
It either needs to be the only tank in game with a 800mm pen round or it needs a 5 second reload. Anything else and its just a straight downgrade even to the base the CR2
But not decompressed. If anything, the compression has been made worse. You just moved everything up 0.3 except 1 or 2 tanks.

why was dm53 removed from the leo 2pl in the recent changes?
You mean the next major update right ?
In fairness, 9.0-9.3 was decompressed by moving every vehicle above 9.7 up a notch, but this only decompresses this bracket. What @Morvran requested was decompression of the top tier ground vehicles, which is not accomplished by moving mostly everything by an equal amount

It’s the truth.
“Player statistics” are what matter most to Gaijin because they’re what directly affects the game economy, in other words, the grind.
Gaijin needs the grind to be in a spot where players earn just enough to keep going but slowly enough that they still spend money on the game.
The game’s balance is a part of the business. For better and for worse.

I think it will be done in one of upcoming server updates

just saw the BR changes, no buffs to the CR3?!

I suspect it’s also a part of “hand-holding” certain demographics of players who gravitate toward certain vehicles/lineups/nations
No matter how poorly the demographic plays, their vehicles will be buffed or have their BRs changed to compensate for comparative lack of skill
Yeah, I saw that, I’m just a bit surprised that the Fakur-90s are watered down to merely “different weaponry”.

But, honestly… that did nothing.
The gap in technical capabilities across many 12.0s is still as big as it was when they were 11.7, since most 11.7s are now 12.0 anyway…
The gap in technical capabilities between many 11.7s and 12.0s is still as big as it was between former 11.3s and 11.7s, since most 11.3s are now 11.7 anyway… etc.
A single BR step expansion is as good as no expansion at all when most vehicles remain in the exact same relative position respect to the others.
The Leopard 2A5 comment, for example; the point wasn’t that Leopard 2A5 should be lower, but that it shouldn’t be the same BR as Leopard 2A7V.
Leopard 2A7V is an objective, absolute upgrade in every way. It has twice as much hull armor, it has 3x times better thermals, it has higher penetration, it has more spall liners… why are they the same BR? The answer is- they shouldn’t. It’s as if T-34 (1940) and T-34E STZ were the same BR.
This is extremely disappointing, but thank you for the quick response.
One last question- why did the developers not give M1A1 AIM its historical KEW-A2 shell, even though now we have the M1A1 HCs and M1A2 at the same BR with M829A2 and even slightly better armor? M1A1 AIM feels pointless now.
