“you don’t see a higher BR range because you have a higher BR”
lol
it is a serious issue. That’s why I wanted to come up with a Tier based match making.
In a way, it would work exactly like SIM, where you can choose from a wide selection of vehicle, independant of BR to take into battle.
The idea is to balance vehicles with different reward modifiers based on their efficency.
The more capable the vehicle, the lower the rewards, and vice versa.
That way, you don’t need a line-up since you have a wide BR range to choose from.
You can spawn a Tiger with low reward or a Pz IV with high rewards.
The current system needs to create balance by taking both up- and downtiers into account, which doesn’t work since they are often not equal.
If a vehicle over or underperforms, is often the result of it seeing mostly full up- or downtiers due to BR black-holes.

Git gud then
USSR’s 6.7 lineup remains unchanged.
USA’s 5.0 lineup remains unchanged.
Germany’s 6.0 lineup remains unchanged.
And light tanks finally move up again after being chronically under-BR’d for years.
Lower BR light & medium tanks finally get the breathing room they deserve.
Soviet Helicopters’ BRs were changed long ago, their BRs have ALWAYS been higher than their other-nation counterparts, except China whose ATGMs don’t match their BR until 11.7.
I am not saying that it should be 7.0, I am saying that it can be competitive at 7.0.
You were responding to shrapnel being removed no?
Spoiler
stop kidding yourself, that thing is too good for 8.7
USA does not have a 5.0 lineup
Moving the M4A1 76 to 5.0 does not create a 5.0 lineup, it just makes another tank useless
US (had) a 4.7 lineup, a 5.3 lineup, and a 5.7 lineup
The M4A1 76 / M6A1 / M42 Duster now have no purpose outside of uptiering and underperforming

Every tree in game has at least 1 tank that can frontally pen the T32E1 or flank it and kill it from the side, just as easily as the M36 can flank and kill the Tiger II H. Despite this fact, the biggest complaint about any decently armored US tank is that they are difficult to kill from the front.
There is no argument to justify the Tiger II H at 6.7 that won’t justify the T32E1 at 7.0.

Wording.
Seeing higher BR because you are at a higher BR =/= more uptiers.
You don’t suddenly see more uptiers because you’re at a higher BR, except for server-and-time-specific MM artifacts.
what? the M6A1 and T1E1 are 5.0 and with the M4A1 76 moving to 5.0 there will be 3 vehicles, a perfectly fine lineup that is larger than the current 4.7 lineup

A higher BR means a higher BR range that is how the BR system works
When you go up in BR, you face tanks at a higher BR
Type 87RCV - 8.7-9.0
This vehicle, in its current state, should not be placed at the same BR as the VBC (PT2)
Compared to such, it lacks a two plane stabilizer, thermal sight and laser rangefinder, while also having inferior armor protection and top speed in both forwards and reverse gears. Its only advantages are a higher crew count, wich is only there compensate for its subpar protection, and a 0.3 higher hp/t ratio, that does not create any significant effect on the vehicles agility
The logical solutions would be to either not move it to 9.0, or to move the VBC (PT2) up to 9.3 while the RCV goes to 9.0
The less logical solution would be to give the RCV an unhistorical two-plane stabilizer while moving it up to 9.0 to bring it closer in performance to the VBC

I think if change the BR of T-69IIG from 8.7 to 9.0 we need to roll-back its reload time

The only good tank you just mentioned is the T1E1
T1E1 → 5.3
M6A1 → 4.7
M4A1 76 → 4.7
Lineups are as follows
4.7: M4A1 76 / M6A1 / M42 Duster
5.3: M4A2 76 / T1E1 / Jumbo / M36
5.7: M4A3 76 / Jumbo / M18 / M36B1
These are the fundamental lineups of US mid WW2
Gaijin has now destroyed the 4.7 lineup

USA currently doesn’t have a 4.7 lineup.
It’s just the M4A1 76, one tank does not make a lineup.
USA’s 5.0 lineup is strong currently, and only gets stronger next update because of the BR changes.
yelling that a tank becomes useless just bc it goes up a singular BR step, at which its very good stabilized cannon at ww2 tiers still performs incredibly well bc it still gets used to great effect on tanks even further up just makes you sound like an idiot.

yeah but that’s not what is happening, the M6A1 and T1E1 are 5.0 and are staying 5.0, so the M4A1 76 moving to 5.0 makes that lineup stronger while just getting rid of the already extremely small 4.7 lineup
