Man i was expecting more of a decompression compared to more compression…

we have over 100k user on at anytime… i don’t understand why we couldn’t completely expand the BR’s to make the game better… Yes splitting ERA machines or whatever, but pushing everything in most cases up only by 0.3 means there will be more machines stuck dealing with the SAME machines they have issues with before, only with a higher BR… and now more machines that where lower BR now deal with even stronger machines…

I don’t understand why we couldn’t have decompressed the entire game this is just a 0.3 that compresses the higher tiers while marginely fixing the issue. its a 1/3 finish idea, just do an entire decompression not this 0.3 for the “era”… Getting into matches in most ARB, GRB, (not naval cause its naval) BR’s is almost an instant que unless you are squadding up and attempting to fight the MM nation splitting. or dealing with the black holes of areas where people simply don’t want to play for certain machines, or certain “players”…

i really just don’t think this is enough honestly with how much effort you are putting in everywhere else this feels flat.

It’s not increasing in total BR, it’s being decompressed.

@ptrthgr8

Because T-29 does extremely well against 6.0s currently.
Not sure why you want it to be OP.

@Lynxium

There is no compression in the list, it’s exclusively decompression.

@sh4d0w

Now you understand why they’re decompressing ground.

@N4N4MiKo1t0

That’d be for a future one.
They have to test things with current after all.

@MXY7_Ohka_when

DM33 is superior to M774.

Once again all of the vehicles that have HEAT-FS, APFSDS, laser range finders, stabilizers and thermal imagers should’ve been moved up. Also moving the top battle rating bracket to 12.0 or even 12.3 for ground forces, Now theres even more compression at these battle ratings

Take out the loader it doesn’t have 5s reload anymore

I guess a blanket change is the quickest and most efficient way to decompress that area, though maybe increasing max BR too would’ve been better

Hmm, shouldn’t the Object 122MT also get the T-62 reload buff, its dart and HEAT-FS rounds have the same pen and all.

And the STB-1 should get its HEAT-FS back, only having APDS at 9.0/9.3 is pretty harsh, still same BR as the Type 74 C in RB, and 8.0 in arcade means seeing a lot more “modern” vehicles even with the blanket increase.

Also interesting naval changes. HMS Kent’s change is pretty good, but lowering Dreadnought to 6.0 doesn’t look like it will be very positive, hard to imagine fighting one in an Omaha or Moffett.

I wonder why the K-7 no.4 keeps going up, it’s not very different from the K-3 no.1.

I also have a few suggestions for naval BRs:
Besposhchadny and Ryany 3.7 - > 4.0 (all)
They’re pretty much the same ship as the 4.3 Soobrazitelny, same weaponry, speed, crew, size, etc. Only real difference is the engine layout. Having basically the same ship but 2 BR jumps lower doesn’t really make sense. If there must be a 3.7 Soviet DD, you can just move Letuchiy down, it has no AA and similar/worse firepower, also make it go before the Ognevoy.

T31 4.0 → 3.7 (all)
No one remembers this ship cause it’s a removed premium, but it’s identical to the T22 (technically it’s worse cause it has 1 less AA gun). Not much of a reason for it to have a different BR with its sister, makes it slightly more palatable to buy whenever it goes on sale too.

Good thing both tanks have M829A1 and M900 respectively then!

I wouldn’t mind most of these changes except that grinding RP for Italian, French and Japanese and for mostly anything over 8.3 is such a pain in the ass when on a very good game you are lucky to earn over 2,500 rp without premium. 5000 is also very low with premium.

The Wiesel 1A4 should not go up… its by far the worst, useless vehicle in the game.

T-55AM 8.3 → 9.0. This tank is easly one of the most OP premiums and best nuke maker in the game. It is really good in all the aspects: firepower, protection, mobility. It has features, many tanks from this BR can only dream about. Facing it in early MBTs, without darts is a pure pain.

IT-1 8.3 → 9.0. If it takes position behind a hill, this thing is untouchable. Not only it has pretty good ATGM, it can fire it on the move, has stab, has camera from the missile, not from the gunner sight (unlike most ATGM carriers) and has armour of MBT, so it cannot be overpressured. Not only that! It’s so versatile, it can just go to the city and do CQB better than most MBTs from this BR. I’m really suprised it didn’t go up earlier and even now.

Could we also see vehicles changing places?
Like Puma moving behind Rad 90 or Ki- 109 moving after J1N1(and even to rank I )

122MT should get the buff like T-62

5 Likes

T34 Heavy Tank should be moved to 7.0 with the decompression, as it’s almost as powerful as T29.

please consider putting all the centurions to 8.0 aswell since they all have a stabiliser.

Gaijin likes changing tree progression mostly in economy updates. So we have to wait a few months for that.

122MT has 120mm gun, not 115mm like the T-62.

Also this forum is limited to 3 replies in the same topic, We can’t even discuss these br changes properly.

Economy update should be very close as well because they are planning to folder many vehicles in summer update as well

Not gonna lie this is looking to be a pretty awful change. If these are to happen, more vehicles in higher BR needs to be increased, and the max BR needs to go up more. Then again that’s been needed for ages.
