Gaijin are actually one of the more reactive companies when it comes to MMOs. They have issues but many other games are worse.

Were ??

It also lacks any form of ground weapons so it’s stock grind is also worse. It also lacks Aim7P meaning until tier IV you are stuck with 9Ms and the two stock Aim 120. It’s also not possible to go lower as Smin stated 10 Fox 3 is too strong for 13.7

Trust me this was a big discussion when the US first got the hornet since we asked for MLU 1 Which would be the same as it is now but with HMS and (9X eventually like MLU 2) but again it was denied. Since Smin denied the F-18C going down to 13.7 it just doesn’t make sense for the F-18E to go down unfortunately.

They’ll tell you to list one vehicle at a time

Aircraft: Ta152C-3

Mode: Air RB

Proposed Change: 6.3→ 6.0 - 5.7

Reason:
Terrible maneuverability; increased difficulty in attacking due to the MG151’s reduced muzzle velocity; and worse climb performance than the P-51H and other aircraft of comparable class

Type 2 Ho-I
jp_type_2_ho_i

  • Reload Speed: 5.9 s → 3.3~4.0 s

jp_type_2_ho_i
Rationale:
Other vehicles with low velocity 75/76 mm howitzers like the T-28 (1938), M8 HMC, and the very analogous early Panzer IV’s have aced reload speeds of 3.3-4 seconds, but the Ho-I’s is longer than even many higher velocity 75 mm guns. This should be the opposite. Ho-I’s rounds are shorter and lighter than the Germany short 75 mm rounds, and more accessible than those of the Panzer IVs due to the convenient bustle ammunition rack.

Additionally, the Ho-I has greater need for faster reload than the Pz. IVs due to the much worse HEAT shell muzzle velocity, meaning misses at range are more frequent, and with the current reload rate, more punishing.

That’s why to fast lol

why are they moving it down again? this it the 3rd time its going be 10.0.

also the french f8e is 10.0 without flares and half the amount of usable missiles.

Type 3 Chi-Nu
jp_type_3_chi_nu

  • Reload Speed: 6.0 s → 5.0 s

jp_type_3_chi_nu
Rationale:
When compared to the closest analogues, later Panzer IV’s, it doesn’t make sense for the Chi-Nu to have a worse reload when it has shorter rounds in a roomier turret with a bustle rack. The Chi-Nu is already in the shadow of other 3.3 mediums, like the Pz.IV G and M4A1 Sherman. Giving it a more respectable fire rate would be a good way to keep it competitive and would maintain some gameplay consistency between it and the later Chi-Ri.

Its literally a worse bmpt

Literally the same reload as the Pz.IVs and M8 Scott. Did you even read my rationale?

I guess the W/R or KD is less than 1.0 or 50% these days

10 amraams on a terrible platform seems quite equal to 8 R-77 on a great platform at 13.7 or 6 PL-12 on a great platform with a good radar.
