Planned Battle Rating changes (table updated 04.08.2023)

hoping the object 120 gets moved to 8.0 tired of getting penned through my front plate from across the map

I agree that current 10.3’s shouldn’t see the new 9.3’s this is an updated decompression (based on current br’s) that I mentioned in my previous post which I should have replied to:
10.0, 10.3 move up 0.7 in br becoming 10.7, 11.0
10.7’s become 11.3’s or 11.7’s (they stay as middle grounds between upper and lower top tier)
11.0, 11.3, 11.7 move up 1.3 in br becoming 12.3, 12.7, 13.0
An important reason for why I suggest this is because I don’t think (using current br’s) 11.3’s should meet 10.3’s and 10.0’s shouldn’t meet 9.3’s or below.

Basically separating current 9.7 from 10.0+ and 10.0-10.7 from 11.0+

Well, you remember when everybody was asking for upgraded rounds for the 9.0 leopards and type 74s. Everybody said back then, its only over kill so it really doesn’t matter. Well guess what, it mattered, and they were wrong, and I was right. Those tanks didn’t need the upgraded rounds so now deal with the consequences. Alternatively, Gaijin could remove type 93 and dm33 from certain 105 tanks where dm 23 was plenty good. So yeah, with DM 33 and type 93 I think those tanks can fight early mbts in a full uptier.

i say that because if they were to put 2a4s up to 10.7 like i would like they would be fighting top tier which i dont think dm23 is good enough for

the most i would expect from gaijin is 12.0 but i do agree we need more decompression at the top

I definitely agree with this though I think a good idea is to remove the top shells of the M1A1 and IPM1 and lower the IPM1 to 10.3 since the armor only makes it equivalent to the Leopard 2A4 yet the pen of M833 is still worse.

i think its silly that the ipm1 is going to 11.0 gaijin treats it like a m1a1 with a 105 instead of a m1 with improved armor i think it could stay at 10.7 with 2a4 as i think they are more comparable than 2a4 and base m1 but it should only get m833 if 2a4 only get dm23

Pzbtl 123 went up from 10.0 to 10.3 with the last round of BR updates, which was also a major decompression update. Type 74G used to fight it.

They are trying to decompress between WW2 and cold war. They did top tier first and now they’re doing the next bracket down.

There was already a gap in the 10.x bracket from the last round of changes that they are re filling.

If they move up the leo2a4 to 10.7 then it would need dm33 to be balanced. At its current BR its balanced.

i mean i can barely pen it in a 9.7 let alone a 9.3 but that’s beside the point

I think part of the issue is they do, the Javelin, but I don’t know if it can be mounted the way the Milan can (though I’m not sure if the British actually mount the Milan like that on the Warrior, though I’m pretty sure it is possible) which technically couldn’t stop Gaijin from doing it, but it’s a Javelin. It is my understanding that the British use the Warrior as ATGM team carriers. The vehicle doesn’t have it, but the people inside it do, allowing them to be moved around quickly on the battlefield. I think the reason for not including the Javelin would be the same reason they took the Spike away from the Puma, they don’t want to add that in yet, they’re not ready/don’t know how. It would be interesting to see some of the other possible Warriors like the “Desert Warrior” which Kuwait variant with basically the LAV 25 turret with two TOW launchers strapped to it (one on either side) and the Warrior CSP, though I am unsure if Gaijin wants to add the CT40 into the game, but how would another 40mm cannon only IFV really hurt things (and yes I know the CT40 is probably better than a Bofors but 140mm RHA @ 1500m APFSDS just means like, 10.3 right?)

Gaijin literally decompressed that area earlier this year, how can you be so dense? An IS-2 can lolpen an Ariete, that does not mean they should see each other.

Maybe try playing 8.7 while taking a 9.0 tank with you that you don’t play, and see how fun that is. Because that is what we’re going to end up with.

I don’t think it would be that necessary, Ariete is 10.0 and has DM33.

This is shooting at a leopard 2a4 with dm33 from the leopard 1a5. I see no problem.

Why is the Cent 5/1 going up.
It’s slow and doesn’t have a lot of armor. It has a good gun but with the problems of APDS and spalling it’s going to struggle.

shoot a German tank with a German tank aren’t you smart

I think the chinese BMP (ZBD86) shouldn’t be at the same battle rating as the rest of the BMPs because that thing has a much better tandem ATGM, so it would make sense to have it at a higher BR, perhaps 8.3 or 8.7

That Ariete needs to move to 10.3. Compare it to the challenger mk.3 and it becomes pretty apparent.

I think these changes arent bad in general, theyre good, but they arent solve the problem, they shift it up to higher BRs. After this change unstabilized vehicles between 8.0 and 10.0 without apfsds have to fight vehicles with both of them. So than the compression moves up in br, and the problem starts again. So why you do not decompress the whole battlerating and create new battelratings up to like 15.0. This would be a much better thing to solve the problem of decompression.

Its pretty damn near impossible to kill frontally without HEAT of apds, whilst it can front pent most things it faces.
