Planned Battle Rating changes (table updated 04.08.2023)

does it go one whole BR up? and how is a leo 1 better than a object 906 which already has autoloader and gun stab? hm tell me considering the longer reload and no stab it is fair to say that it should be a bit lower than the 906

i looked the chart sorry bro this has no effect on me

It goes up the same amount the tanks you’re complaining about went up by. So nothing changed for you regarding this. Where does 906 come into play here?

except the fact that the tank i bought stays in 7.3 and I no longer have a good setup for that sweet 7.3 and 7.7 BR

There is nothing wrong with playing any nation. There is nothing inherently wrong with playing only one nation. The problem is when you come into a message board and start saying X things are a bad idea or Y things should happen when you actually have zero idea what you’re talking about because you have no experience (from only playing the one nation).

i played the 3 main nations although i am progressed more in Germany I do know the other nations too

You need to ask and seek for decompression, not more compression.

You do not know the other nations. You’ve admitted you haven’t grinded anybody else to this BR.

That is why it is best to use the historical data, the Leopard 1 is from 1965, since it has to face the T-55A which is from 1963, but the T-55 would not have to carry the APDSFS since that ammunition is of almost the 80s.
From my experience I can tell you that yes, the stabilizer matters, but it is not something extremely decisive, with the Leopard 1 you can use its speed to reach good points on the map, stop and wait for someone to appear, and in that situation you do not need the stabilizer.

yes i did russians

Probably because ATGMs all just got gutted? Beats me…

Fair enough, US 6.3 and 6.7 saw too many uptiers.

Is there any plans for the MB5? it is still on the same BR as 3 or 4 years ago but cannot really compete against other 5.0 planes. It should be mentioned too that it has double the power of a mk 24 spitfire but accelerates slower than a mk 24.

So what if the T32E1 is hard to kill from the front. That’s the entire point of the vehicle. The Ferdinand is hard to kill from the front. The Jagdtiger is hard to kill from the front. The Jagdpanther is hard to kill from the front. Hell, the Tiger II H is hard to kill from the front. Those things all face 76mm and 85mm armed tanks which struggle to kill them at medium or even short range.

But hey, I guess US tanks that require some level of effort to kill are just too OP.

It was also impossible for the T-34-100 and T-44-100 to fire rounds that didn’t exist at that time. Until all other ammo is made historically accurate, I don’t care if the T32 could or did fire certain rounds. A rule that exists for one vehicle isn’t a rule.

I can understand some of these changes, but quite a few of them leave me scratching my head. I know this is meant to decompress the BR range that has WW2 vehicles meeting Cold War ones, but this just means that the compression will move up in BR, it messes even more things up, arguably, since people will spend way longer grinding those higher BR vehicles.

Leopard I: 7.3 → 8.0. Excuse me, why? No stabilizer, unreliable armor, good mobility, okay gun though with unreliable damage. 7.7 should be good. Also, the M48 ith DM23 stays at it’s BR, huh? Why?

Leopard 1A5s: 9.0 → 9.3. Not explicitly necessary, as they’re just an A1A1 with access to Gen 1 thermals. Is it better? Yes, of course, but I think it’s fine for them to stay at their current BR.

Radwagen 90: 9.3 → 9.7. This one is arguable, but I feel that it’s okay at 9.3. The 2S25 is at the same BR, and they both work fine there. No explicit need for the move, either of them.

Ozelot: 9.3 → 9.7. It’s okay at it’s BR. No need for the move. It only gets 8 Stingers (10G missile), and quite a few aircraft at that BR can almost ignore it without stress, since they can evade those Stingers by flying low and/or fast, or really high. Also, IT HAS NO CANNONS! IT CAN’T DO ANYTHING AGAINST GROUND VEHICLES AT ALL, NOT EVEN MARK THEM FOR THEIR TEAM.

Leopard 2AV: 9.7 → 10.0. IT’S GOT A 105MM GUN. DO NOT MOVE IT. It doesn’t get thermals, it doesnt get good armor, it only has mobility going for it. Damn, man, why?

T-54s and variants: 7.3-7.7 → 8.0 This is extremely unnecessary. 7.7 should be fine for all of them as well, since they also have unreliable armor, a decent gun but with horrible handling and mediocre maneuverability, and a slower reload than almost everything else they can encounter.

T-55s: 8.0 → 8.3. Unnecessary move. It’s good at where it’s at. No need to face 9.3 vehicles. Okay gun, slow reload and mediocre mobility. No armor, pretty much.

T-62s: 8.3 → 8.7. Again, unnecessary move. It’s fine where it’s at. Good gun with a slow reload, but mediocre everything else, pretty much.

T-62M-1: 8.7 > 9.0. Again, why? It should not at all be moved, up or down in BR. It’s a decent tank for the tier, yes, but that doesn’t mean it should have to face BR 10.0 tanks, which it always will, because 10.0 is a blackhole of ovepowered premiums, like the TURM-S and 2S38.

T-72B: 9.7 → 10.0. WHY? It’s got no thermals, a slow turret, a sort of decent gun, but bad handling and no reverse gear. Gaijin, will you please explain why? It’s fine at 9.7, don’t increase it.

Wolfpack: 9.7 → 10.0, with better rounds (same as tech tree variant). Huh. So I guess, there is no reason to play the TT version, right, since we now have an identical premium at the same BR? Wow, what a blatant attempt at a cash grab. Nice work.

In which unreal world does increasing the volume ( Br celling) of container ( br bracket) does compress its contents ?

So what if the T32E1 is hard to kill from the front. That’s the entire point of the vehicle.

Not even sure what you’re getting at? If it’s not killable in its matchmaker it can’t be in that matchmaker lmao. Armor has to be balanced for the BR it’s at. It’s not like it has a .50cal for a gun or maus speed.

The Ferdinand is hard to kill from the front. The Jagdtiger is hard to kill from the front. The Jagdpanther is hard to kill from the front.

And weirdly of all these vehicles, the T32 still has way better armor than any of them. Strange.

It was also impossible for the T-34-100 and T-44-100 to fire rounds that didn’t exist at that time. Until all other ammo is made historically accurate, I don’t care if the T32 could or did fire certain rounds. A rule that exists for one vehicle isn’t a rule.

What? The rule is CAN the gun fire it. Not if it did. CAN the T-34-100 and T-44-100 fire these rounds? YES! Therefore they can get them. Can the T32 fire HEAT or APDS? No! Because that round doesn’t exist!

Meanwhile M4/T26 doesn’t have M304 APCR, and the M26, M36 and Super Hellcat don’t fire “late” M82 ammunition with 853 m/s muzzle velocity that came out in WW2 when all these vehicles were active

The T32 having more armor doesn’t matter because those tanks are at lower BRs, face guns with lower penetration, have better guns and still get to fight tanks they can easily kill.

Neither did the BR-412D at the time the T-34-100 and T-44-100. And I’m not sure what you mean by the HEATFS and APDS don’t exist, because they do. T108 HEATFS and T65 APDS were being developed in the 40s.

I’m sorry as I have misused the term “Br bracket” - I meant the whole br range (from 1.0 to max) and not the possible br difference in matchmaking.
So I ask again how come increasing the maximum volume does cause compression.
