Planned Battle Rating Changes for October 2024

One more thing to add: the performance of the J35XS is too bad compared to other aircraft with 11.3 BR. Any aircraft with 11.3 BR is far better than the J35XS. The BR of the J35XS needs to be reduced to at least 11.0 or even lower. The AMX A1-A is too slow, and the performance of AAMs is also terrible, soBR needs to be reduced as well.The magnification of the AH-1W’s optics is too low, and the AIM9L and Hellfire missile mounts conflict. Its actual performance is not better than Lynx and A129, it should maintain 10.7 BR.

The A-10C is too slow to be viable as a ground attacker at it’s current BR in Air Sim. There are too many Av-8 premiums that just JDAM every ground battle right away.

A-10C should be moved down to 11.0BR.

Air realistic battles, Mig-29. it needs to be lowered in br or get better missiles, it has 2 super strong r27er but the other 4 r60m are extra useless at 12.0

Ground RB, XM975 10.3 > 9.7
After the SACLOS nerfs ages ago, the roland missile system has been practically useless compared to what it used to be. Yet the german and US rolands have stayed at 10.3 for the longest time for whatever reason.

Ground realistic, F104S 11.0 → 10.3.

Reason: Slight better ordanace the the F104G at 10.0. This warrents higer br. But comparing the F104S. with similar aircraft at lower br like Torando ids (10.3) you see that the F104S has worse payload, way worse agility, RWR, amout of countermeasures and missiles. But it has better speed. Hence it should be at a comparable br (10.3)

OK, gaijin increase max BR for ground RB higher 12.0

But for me hope gaijin decompress battle rating to 12.3 for ground vehicle top tier because 12.0 not enough

I might want AIM-9M instead Flare/Chaff x640, AIM-9 x4 (stock) & AIM-9L x4, and replace AIM-9L at tier III modification

What about AMX-30 Roland? It’s already 9.7 and worse

What is the point of increasing the BR range if you increase the BR of everything at top tier at the same time? The level of compression remains identical for all the top BRs.

There are clearly underperforming vehicles in there, the PUMA averages a negative k/d so why is that going up still? Radkampf is your average wheeled MBT without thermals and only 400mm of pen, that’s 10.3 worthy now?

Also handing out reload speed like candy is equally a nerf to top tier tanks that rely on reload speed, the Type 10s are already solely relying on reload speed as they either suck are are artificially nerfed in every other category, if other MBTs keep getting faster and faster reload speeds artificially it should finally get fixed as it’s been bug reported countless times for years.

And preventing people from participating on the forum unless they play your game constantly every single week ridiculous.

Which the flankers arguably should be higher, its better than the F-15As, but not much. Their drop is again, likely due to the fact that they are not finding 12.3-13.3 matches(like the KWS IV and F.3 CSP) and getting downed by ARH.

Air RB, AMX A-1A. 11.3>10.7. The tech-tree AMX has a better gun (Vulcan has more range and is easier to aim than DEFAs) and missiles (Aim-9L) that have longer range (but turn worse) so why is the better plane 0.7 br steps lower than its premium counterpart?

Then gaijin would need to move the type 80 rcv (p) that vehicle was worse than the XM800T yet why not mention that? It definitely doesn’t deserve to be the same BR as the XM which should be .3-.7 higher

Ground realistic battles, OTOMATIC. 11.3 > 10.3

At its current BR, the OTOMATIC lacks sufficient range to deal with the aircraft that it faces, as its mediocre fire rate and slow shell velocity limit its effective range to a mere 3 - 4 km, despite multiple SPAAs at lower BRs like 2S6 Tunguska and ASRAD-R having double this range.

As a result, the aircraft that OTOMATIC faces can release munitions well outside of its effective range, and any friendly SPAAs are able to down aircraft long before they get close enough for the OTOMATIC to engage.

Ground Realistic, 2S38 . 10.3 > 11.3. When the 2S38 got a detailed model, it lost its 10 round ready rack, giving it immediate access to all of its rounds. This continued sustained fire rate really buffed the vehicle and made it comparable to its counterpart the HSTV-L and Otomatic. While it may have less speed and penetration than the HSTV-L, it makes up for the difference with better thermals, ammunition count, and fire rate.

Vehicle: Mig-21F-13
Gamemode: Air Realistic
BR Change: 9.3 → 9.7
Reason: It is a supersonic aircraft at a BR where most aircraft are sub-sonic, whilst it is not alone in this being an issue, unlike the F-104 and Lightning F6. It can actually turn fight reasonably well

Nah this needs to go up, I’d rather be facing BMPs and Marders than getting downtiered and facing Tiger II, IS-2 etc

Ground RB, Roland 1 9.7 > 9.3
After the SACLOS nerfs ages ago, the roland missile system has been practically useless compared to what it used to be. The US and german ones should be 9.7 and the french one 9.3 as it’s worse than those.

(also sidenote the addition of rank 8 ruined grinding france & israel, there are basically no vehicles to use to grind rank 8 compared to before when you could use all the rank 6 ones)

That’s unbalanced considering it gets Fox-1s and Fox-2s. 10.7 is perfectly fine. If it’s good for the buccaneer S.2B it’s good for the F-4C.

Air RB. F14A. 12.3 > 12.7. Give the techtree F14A access to AIM9L, AIM54A is worse than the AIM54C in terms of BVR and WVR it’s useless like the 54C. If the F14B is hopeless against IR missiles, then the 14A is basically dead if anyone gets to your side or rear. At this BR the plane needs something to stand on equal footing. I will not touch the IRIAF F14A because the Fakour 90 is very good and can be used in 4km shots under certain conditions.

Ground Battles, M1A1 AIM : add K-EW A1 or K-EW A2.

As its going to 11.7 with the M1A1 HC and Clickbait it should recieve a shell that is on par with the M829A2 those 2 vehicles are recieving and K-EW A1/2 fit that criteria.
