also can we talk about how ayit is most definitely better in every single way except for speed than this thing, at the same BR? i got completely outturn, they can just missile me if i extend away with their 4 18G 2.1M Missile that i can’t even avoid at the same BR?? no it’s not “good enough” for 9.3, don’t make that damn “good enough” excuse to this crap plane, or every french plane below mirage 2000-5F for that matter. I’d rather grind the entire tree playing SB2C-5 than playing actual french plane
thats why ayit is going up
My stats dont matter when a sizable portion of the player base is also saying the 2S38 should go up. Same with the 279. Its a rare enough vehicle that more people benefit from it going up than are hurt by it. They’ll live.
And thats why the Ayit is moving up?
What’s the arguement here.
Yes, it is.
When it was 9.0 it decimated everything.
I will, because it IS good enough.
There are some great planes before that.
Not stopping you.
J-7D
ARB- 10.7 → 11.0
Do i even have the explain why this move has to happen?
Vehicles are pixels and don’t play themselves. It is impossible to separate vehicle and player. More to the point an MMO has no incentive to do that, since focusing on players is the best way to ensure their retention.
Yak-28B
ARB + GRB 9.3 → 9.0
Lost its CCIP and flares so now its pretty much useless at 9.3, Extremely frustrating to play too
It came to the game at 8.3 and has slowly been pushed to 9.0… So we have gotten it raised a few times. It really shouldn’t go further than that. It’d be better if Gaijin decompresses BRs more.
Ayit does go up in br and mirage 3 and f1 are great
Because there isn’t a trend showing that premium vehicles perform much worse on average, which is pretty evident when you look at the very popular premiums that have their exact copies in TTs.
Just look at the premium 2A4 from Germany or KVT/Click Bait from the US, you won’t see massive difference in stats when compared to their TT versions.
So yeah, using the “b-b-but it’s a premium vehicle thus is being played by awful players driving it’s stats down” argument is pretty moot, so please stop parroting nonsensical things.
NF-5A
(all modes)’
BR: 10.7 → 10.7
30 flares +15 high caliber → 60 regular caliber
And even bigger portion of the player base is performing awfully with 2S38, so I guess their sheer number is enough for Gaijin to listen to them, right ?
This is pretty much the case of 50-100 forum dwellers versus thousands of WT players that play said vehicle regularly, who you gonna believe ?
That said, thinking this forum contains a sizeable portion of the player base is naive at best.
Also, performing up to your account average (at best) in 2S38 all the while demanding it should go up makes little to no sense. If it was really that good it would drive itself, increasing your stats along the way.
reason: f5s do not need high caliber CMs, regular caliber are fine, having less flares than every other f5 with ALE-40 is a huge downgrade, keeping it at 60 is a fine amount
though hopefully some day they’ll massively nerf the F-5s by giving them an IR signature
i hope they do, i mean, they fixed the ir signature of the su25s, so one can dream (fix f5 and harrier heat signatures)
Thank you kind sir. I see it the same way and the reload buffs are pretty disgusting.
True, I love my 4.0 swedish lineup, that PVKV II is already a beast, you just hide in terrain, use your good optics + gun depression and snipe T-34s and KV1s as your gun can easily defeat their armor.
I just never liked it due to the horrid reload. I just love the pvkv3 tho. The one with the 3.2 second 57mm gun. Really fun little thing. Rn on my idk what level crew the pvkv2 has a 13 second reload which kills the fun for me. I will try to get back into it after they do the 4 second reload buff
Yeah she will be a beast now… they could maybe try a little buff first compared to this massive reload buff. That is the nice part of WT if one vehicle do not suits you you can always choose different one. :)
Sadly those 24 second reloads are too fast. Even 33,3 seconds is too generous for KV2s… it should be closer to 40-45 secs.
Anyway I still enjoy my T30 as I do in her equally good if not better compared to my T34 heavy tank so after this buff she will end up at 7.0 BR for sure… if not 7.3… T30 will be crazy OP with this unrealistic buff sadly…
