Planned Battle Rating Changes (October 2026) — Aircraft and Ground Vehicle Decompression

More for the AIM-9D and access to countermeasures at its BR in ARB. Gunpod is nice, too. Though, it’s gone up in BR multiple times in recent history. I just kept spamming it and eventually unlocked the F-15I, lol.

100%. No surprise that T-55M has more games played, even as much as i like the cheese wedges.

It might be, but it also might allow bases to be killed with less bombs,.which means less weight in arb

Should be fun if nothing else

True. But honestly I would like more variants, like ASSTA2/3, and label the one WTD61 version “Early” if they insist it is, and add another one with more weapons. German TT is stretched thin already and idk why Gaijin refuses to add more vehicles to the German TT… Swiss subtree can be expanded, Argentina also, that includes both ground and air.

The ASSTA1 has already been upgraded to the ASSTA3

Hey.
Are you going to lower the BR of F/A-18C Early to 12.3 in the upcoming update?

Why would they?

cuz it’s not fair in it’s current BR
it mostly gets up tiered versus air crafts that have fox-3 missiles while it doesn’t.

I’m simply trying to make an argument that in order to decompress you gotta add more to do. Rank 7 is… I guess it’s fine for Germany, but leaves something to be desired. Rank 8 has only 5 planes not counting premiums… ehhhh… that’s not to mention that right now you have gaps, holes even - I’m talking jumps from 11.0 straight to 14.0, that’s ridiculous.

F-4F (11.0) → F-4F KWS LV (13.0) → EF-2000 (14.3)
Tornado IDS ASSTA1 (11.3) → Tornado IDS SLE (12.3)
F-5E (11.0) → F/A-18C Late (14.0)
…and they’re also decompressing it? Really?

Oh right i remember you

I advise you to learn how to play it first before suggesting BR change, moreso now that MK2/MKK go up

Aww the good old gitgud trolls, very creative and helpful as ever. 😄
Same people who are advising high altitude fighting with Sparrows versus Fox-3 missiles.
Quite a fan too, tracking my every activity on this platform.
Thank you for chiming in, we really needed to hear your opinion. ✅

the A-5C does have higher RP gain
which oculd also just be another factor to why BRs get changed
the fact that the A-5 is going up is insane though, considering it will be higher than the J-7D
but don’t get angry at me or anything
i’m just parsing what info i know
the developers are the ones you should direct your complaints to if anyone
because i’m not defending terrible decisions made by them

As long as people will have uneducated takes, i will keep being loud.

You’re also the one who brings up personal skill when it’s convenient, in a 16v16 objective game where personal skill is largely irrelevant due to how big the battles are…

This is a cope and completely false lol. If this was true skilled players would not have winrates averaging 70-90% while average ones usually have winrates that match that nation’s winrate at around 40-50%. A good player can absolutely influence the outcome of a match.

Since March 22 im sitting at winrate of 58% and KD of 2.96 over 293 battles with 18C early. All those games were in post Mk2/MKk matchmaker.

You want to imply that over such large sample size, this is entirely luck?

Well yea because otherwise you have people with sub 1 KD on MK2/MKK saying its too weak to go up lol.

Self reflection can do wonders.

Oops I replied to the wrong post, not sure how to change that

I’m not scared to admit that I’m a 0.5 KD “no-skill” but that doesn’t exclude me from the game’s discussion, I like to fly planes and I’d like to have a fair fighting chance. I’m also somewhat of a jet plane nerd (thanks autism). That’s all there is to it.

Having ATGM-only vehicles (M113 platform and equivalent) sitting in Arcade in 8.0-9.0 is hilarious. They are absolute crap. It’s about time you move them down to 6.0-7.0 at most. I wonder what stats Gaijin has been handling to consider that CM25 and T58 must both sit at 8.7 (well, T58 is moving to 9.0, but regardless, T58 was just the most atrocious example that came to mind).

as always gaijin have no clue about their own game
for example kurnass 2000 on cas going up to 12.7, it will be higher than f16 su39 etc
it can carry 6x 65d with no thermal and thats it or 2 shitty 0.6 cruise missile with 15kg of explosives
next example is turms-t staying on 10.3 while amx40, ttd, merkava 2d etc. going up to 10.3, thats the same for gaijin
eitan p gonna be on 11.7, thats 1:1 Boxer CRV but on +1.0 br higher for no reason, probably worst vehicle in the game
