Responding to Feedback on the Planned Battle Rating Changes April 2025

Yeah and considering they already updated these BRs on dev we can easily assume further feedback wont be even looked at.

Honestly same. Like there seems to be little point to it. And…I don’t understand the lack of CM engagment. No one is following up with player concerns and confusion.

Yeah, especially when the changes being requested arent based upon personal opinion but clear fact.

Im glad the B-26B vs B-26C issue finally got resolved as that was a classic one, it took too long to fix, but its not alone. The clearest at the moment imo, is the fact the J-34 is 9.3 in SB but the Hunter F6 is 9.0 in SB. The F6 is superior to the J34 in every single respect and it just makes absolutely no sense.

Its problems like that, which just confuse the hell out of me and make me question whether the CMs are really forwarding every suggestion or whether the devs even care. Though this time round there was no SB changes at all, so maybe it was noted for next time, but that is a poor excuse in itself

You’re literally in the topic proving they didn’t ignore feedback.

You can say “They acknowledged feedback in a manner I disagree with.” instead and it be accurate to the facts.

The quick reload speed of all tanks in the TKX (P) and Type 90s lineup gives them an advantage in many situations where fire rate plays a crucial role

Which is literally the only redeeming factor whilst being worse in practically every other category, and that advantage is already being chipped away at constantly by giving reload speed increases for other MBTs in lieu of fixing their issues or decompressing the BRs.

Despite lacking a search radar and having to deal with the drawbacks of missiles with IR seekers, such as target acquisition distance, it has a second seeker mode and embraces the benefit of such missiles that have fire and forget capabilities.

Despite lacking in every category and having to go up against jets that engage from 10-20km away, despite being unable to get a lock on anything over 5km, despite not being able to detect anything, despite being unable to lock onto drones, or helicopters or jets half the time for whatever reason, and despite all your feedback, we still treat our statistics like the holy grail of data and ignore everything else.

Statistics mean nothing, it just doesn’t die as often as it doesn’t get detected as easily BECAUSE IT DOES NOT HAVE A RADAR AT TOP TIER.

The TKX (P) will still be able to be in the same lineup as the Type 81 (C), so its Battle Rating being raised doesn’t leave it without a lineup.

A single overtiered MBT with a single overtiered SPAA, what a stellar lineup.

Absolute clownery.

And the Yak-9K with the unrealistic APHE continuing to remain severely undertiered along with the KV-1B/E. Russian Bias strikes again.

Pantsir-S1 = 12.0
Type 81 (C) = 11.7
HQ17 = 11.3

The people who play this game would never do that.

It was enough of a hassle playing top tier Japan with an overtiered SPAA. Now the SPAA is bloody worthless. Time to scrap my Japan line-up.

Bloody IvanBoos again, I swear. Ruining this game along with Gaijin.

Cute flag. I’m still over 9000% right.

Given the sheer number of things that get brought up time and time again, such as the Tornado IDS BRs or the state of the British Phantoms. Its hard to accept any other conclusion than that they just pick and choose what feedback to record.

I would like to say, as a person who has been playing the Japanese tree after finishing my French, I currently do not have the TKX (P). I got both of my Type 90s and then went for the Type 10. Having been playing off and on, I am still halfway to the Type 10. My 11.3 lineup now must count on praying I get placed with a team with decent SPAA because I will have reduced air defense as I must go back to the Type 93, and the only aircraft I have at my disposal is the over-tiered F-4EJ Kai (I get it has a good radar and decent missiles, but no ground ordinance and I have the Mirage F1’s which have even weaker armament and should also go down in GB rating, specially since the CT still hasn’t gotten any of its guided munitions). If the EJ Kai got its AAM-3 I could maybe see why, and also why I think the F-15J should go even farther to 11.7 at least as, unlike the F-15A it has no guided weapons and is just, like the Kai, a bomb truck that has to go against the Tor-M1/HQ17, both ADATS, FlaRakRad, the Pantsir-S1, (I’m going to leave Italy out of this because lets be real), and both ItO. If you want to use it for Air Superiority and run “CAP” you also have to contend with enemy air defenses. (I also really hope that we’re getting AI AAA to help even things out.)

TL:DR Make A2A only aircraft with lower GRB ratings and cheaper spawns.

P.S. I also think the F-16 ADF GB rating should go down, probably to 11.3 like the F-4EJ Kai.

Still no reply on the f104 asa… guess they dont give a shit about it then. anyone else wanna help me tank the stats to see if we can get it moved down at all?

Bro what… It’d be fantastic if it got airspawn and was moved to 5.3

With all data being public, people could hand pick vehicles that seem the easiest to push up/down and try do it is as a challenge. I don’t really want some less played vehicles to suffer just because they aren’t as popular.

General player base is already trusting them with balance, which is something that works in many other PvP games already.

the xp has been busted for far to long, i agree with you moving it up and not removing the air spawn would be great but gaijin refuse to move vehicles because they have set ranges they like to keep them at. They would rather remove aspects of it than move it up.

“What would be going so wrong about F-4J(UK). It is just F-4J. We can use feedback from F-4J/S from USA instead, rather than wasting our storage with some silly brit footage. Nothing will go wrong.”

In Meanwhile
“WDYM, we can’t use IDS WTD61’s data for balancing IDS ASTTA1!”
“B-26C isn’t B-26B, so we can’t use feedback from B-26B. And that is why B-26C should have a higher BR”
“Ah, don’t forget to separate BR between D-28 and D-30!”

At this rate.
I can’t wait to see Spitfire LF Mk.IX on US TT goes down to 5.3BR while our/jewish one goes up to 6.0BR with no changes at all. :/

THIS br change? lol, lmao even…

That thankfully has been fixed.

So change that for why the J34 (a Hunter F4) is a higher BR than the Hunter F6 (france) in SB.

Its confusing as hell

But yeah, common sense seems to have little place in BR decisions

I was responding to someone saying the P-47D-28 should be kept at 5.0

The Kv-1E/B are atleast going to the BR they belong, and the Yak is going up too, just not enough.

I still think the best solution is to just remove the APHE from the 45mms, it’s unbalanced and questionably realistic.

Why on earth are you blaming a group you made up?
