Planned Battle Rating Changes for October 2024

Well for the most part this is good news, 9.3 br will become playable again. Perhaps even moving the top tier echelon of every nations to 12.3 might give the 11.3s more breathing room.

my opinion
1:Air RB, F-104A,F104C : 9.3>9.7
now many aircraft they carring high-performance missile have been pull to a higher BR, so those early F104 should go, because many subsonic aircraft like G.91R1 without AAM missile things can hardly against with them.

2:Air RB,MiG17PF, LiM-5P 8.7>9.0
they have a afterburner engine with more thrust, so they should not keep the same br to basic type MiG17

3: RB, VT-4A1 12.0>11.7
this MBT except a unique APS,whatever firepower,protection,maneuverability can’t go well on the TOP BR, if compare with some BR11.3 vehicle(live version 2.39.0.55) some like M1A1 AIM is better to him.

4: Air RB JH-7A 12.3>11.7
this attacker have 4 all aspect AAM but both PL-5C or PL-8 have no ECCM, also have not fox1 AAM, it can hardly do contribution in BR12.3。

5:Air RB Tornado IDS(all) 11.7>11.3
All the Tornado IDS with GBUs (Tronado Assta1, Tronado GR.1, Tronado 1995) should lower BR ,beacuse GBUs can’t kill enemy players in air RB, they have no different with Tronado MFG or Tronado WTD61 which are BR11.3 currently.

6:Air RB Su17/Su22 family 11.3>11.0
The MiG21Bis are planning to lower BR11.0, the Su17/22 should together, they have same 6 R60M,but worse flight performance, they have no reason not to go BR11.0.

Others suggestion
Me262A1a U1: Tag: attacker→ Interceptor
it has a powerful firepower but don’t stand with attacker, just like Ta152C3, Yak9k. it have no bomb things. so it should be the Interceptor

XM1G: add M774
now the of40 MTCA with DM33 ready to 9.3, the similar mobility with a more better firepower, so XM1G should add M774

If anything it should go higher, but it’s fine where it is at.

mig 29 in 12.7 with r60mk is sad

Tenatively, its the only Hunter that actually has the performance to justify the 9.7 rating as its the only Hunter with CMs currently. The other 9.7 Hunter, the Hunter F6, is universally inferior to the Hunter F58

Saab J35XS 11.0 > 10.7

Even though it has already been reduced to 11.0, it necessarily needs to go back to 10.7. I want my boy back where he was, and there’s nothing special about him to stay at 11.3, 11.0, or above that.

Hello @Stona , Just a quick question about the spreadsheet.

Concerning the Ayit, it currently says on the spreadsheet that it will be moved from arcade 9.7 to 10.0, im a bit confused with this because as it stands the Ayit is currently at 9.3 in Arcade and RB, is it possible that the table was meant to say the Ayit is going from 9.3 to 9.7? and If so why?

It already is one of the weakest jets in a full uptier due to its energy retention, subsonic speeds and extremely basic RWR with no radar system.

9.3 for the Ayit is truly the best spot for this vehicle, as its strength are more of a CAS for ground RB. The Israeli tree already suffers, this change will practically make Israel unplayable as its the only decent option after 7.7 and before 11.3, please reconsider this change if it was not a mistake.

I hope they added more lower BR changes, rank 3, 4 and 5 need a lot of chages too.

ZTZ99A/WZ1001(E)/VT4A1 11.7->11.0
Reason: Poor protection, slowest reload time, only 577mm shell penetration. especially wz1001, gaijin did adjust the model of ztz-99a, but wz1001 with exactly same structure as ZTZ-99a still stay the same. Also recently, the main armor of the ZTZ99A was weakened by 200KE, makes the remodeling even meaningless and GAIJIN did not come up with any reason. Reload time is also not real at all, the CCTV China has already post the video of ZTZ99a reload which is about 5seconds. But what gaijin did seems that they just think Chinese tanks are only terrible imitation of RUS tanks. But China has improved lots of technologies on their own, and every parts on ZTZ-99A is completely invented by China itself, which has nothing related to Russia at all. They’d either make everything as same as what has published in real world or be responsible for what they’ve done. This is not an emotionally charged report, but a fact. Think about it! If you’ve ever played with the tanks of the Chinese faction, you’ll think I’m right.

KV-1B(&E) 4.0->4.3 (RB)
LONG overdue, Nearly every tank that can effectively counter them has gone up in BR outside of its BR range already and these are nearly invulnerable to 3.0 tanks.

Feedback time:
“Single vehicle rule:”
F-104S ASA should move to 11.7. Its weapon systems are only slightly superior to that of Mig-23MLD while having worse flight performance.

Yet they raise the subsonic Ayit with no radar and one of the worst RWR systems to 10.0, losses hundreds of km/h in just seconds. Im sure all the 10.7-11.0-11.3 modern day aircraft really need another 1950’s Frankenstein jet to get free kills on.

I was hoping Tornados IDS’ getting all lowered BRs. Given the fact how badly they get massacred and how slow they are, compared to other competitors to kill the bases. For GRB they have meh ordnance as well.

the jas39a does need to go up in br, even if its by 0.3, it should not be able to fight the 12.0’s

The F8U is still at 10.0 while the F-1 and F-4C, with worse FM’s and no CM, are at 10.3.
The A-5C getting its BR raised to 10.7 should not even be a thing.
Are US pilots really that bad with the bearcat, that the statistics say it should go down in BR?

Ah yes, because the Tornado F3 Late and F4F-ICE are equal to the 12x AAM slinging Su-27SM. That is 100% a fair fight.

Me when I make a list instead of spamming it as 5 different comments (feedback not accepted)

Realistic Battles, J6K1, 6.7 > 6.3.
The Japanese J6K1 from the Operation Frost 2019/20 event is unplayable at 6.7. It faces jets that can outperform it and run circles around it. The J6K1 use to be 6.0 when it was added. It use to be fun to play and actually competitive. Now it is not fun to play due it it facing cold war jets almost every match. I am disappointed that I ground out the event back in 2019/20 to get this plane and now it is unplayable. At 6.7 it gets up tiered to 7.3 and 7.7 too often and gets destroyed. If it were at 6.3 it would be balanced to face other high tier props and some low tier jets occasionally. Please consider lowering the J6K1 to 6.3.
Thank you,

Because AIM 9D’s vs flareless oponents is strong

Yes.
