its pretty much the only reason why im not even considering it.
I just dont want to deal with facing those 8.7 upteirs every single match where I might as well J out
So if Gaijin wants my money, move Soyuz and Iowa to 9.3

The map selection/modes (like encounter) at those tiers are equally bad so it makes it even less enjoyable. Big circle maps with no cover is awful gameplay wise and almost the only thing besides encounter you get. Regular maps would be far more enjoyable.
Is there anything except Des Moines itself is not BBs in 6.7? By the way it is pretty similar to those US DDs: fast-firing, but with poor protection
Agreed. 9.0 is the bare MINIMUM; ideally it should be 9.3.
Although, knowing them, they would probably then just make 8.0s 8.3-8.7s anyway so they’d still face them so xD

A-5C going up but not J-7D is insane. Also M41D?? No way that needed to go up a second time in a row

Oh, i totally missed that, ty for the correction
Who is playing the m41d to make it go up, there is no way they are moving it to what? 8.7 now is it, dont tell me its 9.0…

Vehicle: Pantsir S1
Gamemode: Ground Realistic
BR Change: 12.0 —> 12.3 —> 12.7
Reason: The Pantsir-S1 remains the most potent anti-aircraft system, both at the 12.0 battle rating and at the new, higher BRs. Other SPAA systems moved to 12.3 alongside it simply don’t compare; it is the absolute bane of all helicopters. It also remains a formidable threat to fixed-wing aircraft—just as planes at the 11.0–11.7 range suffered from it before, nothing will change with the new battle ratings; it will continue to crush lower-tier aircraft with total impunity. As for its poor performance statistics, that’s simply a consequence of it being handed out for free. Many players who bought premium tanks are now given access to this SPAA, despite having no idea how to use it. A skilled, dedicated player, however, is a different story entirely—they won’t give you a single chance to get off the ground or even approach the spawn point.

You want to:
- get shot 4 times (or more) by AIM7s,
- dodge/shitpath them all
- while not getting 3rd partied
- then shoot 4 R73s that will all get 1-flared by anyone with 2 braincells
This is exactly like the time when the “community” voted for the APHE thing in ground battles, which still negatively affects gameplay.
You would only want that if you a) never understood the meta (which is radar missiles), or b) dont realize how weak R73s are in the context of things, or c) if you have an Ace Combat mindset and don’t mind dying and/or d) like to parrot something about historical inaccuracies (which literally isn’t true but will get parrotted again or lastly e) you got shot by ERs and want them to be gone.
These are the only reasons.
12.7 is still too low. It will still be facing F-5Es.
Извините, а ротация боевых рейтингов в полковых боях останется такой же: первая неделя — абсолютные топы 15.0, а вторая неделя — фиксированные 12.0?
Тогда вопрос: а на чём играть на второй неделе? На «Тор-М1» и Т-72Б3? Вся хоть как-то играбельная лётка, которая может противостоять ЗРК (а «Тор-М1» может сбивать несколько целей подряд), ушла выше по боевым рейтингам. И как быть в такой ситуации?
Лично я, как и, наверное, половина моего полка, не понимаем, что именно покупать и прокачивать для полковых боёв на младших ступенях боевого рейтинга. Спасибо за внимание!
The USSR players won’t let it go any higher; they even consider the Buk-M3 a weak anti-aircraft system. You can be 100% sure they’ve already raised a hue and cry about their “weak” AA being moved up to 12.3.

I think im the only person playing them at this point. I love the ASA but its a real pain to fly untill they add ecm and even then i doubt it would still be as good as everything else at the br. Just look at the mig 25, a better ASA a whole 0.7 bellow it.
well here we go again
It is clear that all Littorio-class battleships are the worst performing top tier battleships so I see no reason why they can’t change the reload rate.
Roma and Italia are the two worse rank 7 ships for:
SL per game
RP per game*
kills to death ratio
kills to spawn ratio
Lowering the BR would likely not change a thing. A reload buff is really due.
*Roma is actually third last after Musashi by a grand total 20 more rp per game (on 1220 total RP)

Vyacheslav Bulannikov himself stated that this anti-aircraft system did not meet our expectations, and we are introducing a new one: the Pantsir-SM-SV.

USS South dakota
NAVAL RB
8.3->8.7
it is currently the best 8.3 ship at the br and has insane armor similar to USS IOWA at 8.7 its only downside is its guns are weaker than other 8.7s but it has the best guns at 8.3 and the best armor its the opposite of IJN yamato having stronger armor with worse guns
