Responding to issues regarding dev server reports 13.12.2023

Su-27S & J-11 Flanker-B would be top 4 fighter aircraft 12.3 BR but gaijin not change higher 12.3

I guess in next year gaijin might considered expand battle rating to 12.7 BR max for 7 fighter aircraft at rank 8, add medium-range active radar homing BVR on 6 fighter aircraft and add Python 4 replacement AIM-9M sidewinder & AIM-7M Sparrow on F-16D Block 40 Barak

  • F-16C Block 50
  • MiG-29SMT (9-19)
  • Mirage 2000-5F
  • F-16A Block 20 MLU (Italian Air Force)
  • Gripen A
  • AV-8B+ (Italian Navy)
  • F-16D Block 40 Barak

Forced BR compression and power creep. Why else would gaijin be so reluctant to increase the max BR??

That or they have some hard on for a wierd ending number

Reinforced (DU) hull armor for Abrams tanks

The community has periodically raised questions about reinforced hull armor, and, in particular, Depleted Uranium armor in the hull of Abrams series tanks. We’ve studied the issue in detail, however, due to the sheer volume of the topic we are currently not ready to talk about it quite yet. We will go through the details a little later in a separate devblog on this topic.

WHEN ARE WE GETTING THIS UPDATE?

I just want to know what this even means, “The sheer volume of the topic…”? Like the amount of bug reports? Sources? Comments? Data? It’s giving one series of tanks their proper armor. What is so voluminous about it? It’s been an issue for well over a year.

Probably the large bug report and the amount of people asking for it.

They likely want to go over all the sources, make a decision and explain in detail which decision they made, why they made it and which vehicles will be affected.

They need to do their research. That or come up with excuses why they can’t make the changes people want. One of the two.

Gaijin thinking the reload rate is actually gonna change anything in terms of performance. Maybe I am just a doomer but to me it seems like they are trying to compensate for some bad news.

So what about the poor state of the m1a2 sepv2 not having DU at all in the hull, the cermic plates giving the joke of 5mm of protection from KE, and the fact their is no spall liner whatsoever.

I would rather have 5 seconds reload that some armor, considerign 5 centimeters higher there is the turret ring

I don’t think the reload will make a huge difference when you usually already lose your loader and commander as soon as you expose your turret to someone.

If you are lucky enough to survive the shot anyway.

Honestly, the EJ Kai SHOULD get 9Ms seeing as it used them in reality

And it’s still a Phantom chassis at 11.7, I see no reason to increase BR in that case

Regular EJ should also get 9Ls…

Let me think, a second less in 1st stage reload with 2.5 more seconds with second stage reload, or, forcing your enemy to actually aim. I mean, the choice is pretty obvious to me.

Its taking them a while to correctly word their denail in a way that doesnt have us all raging.

I don’t think any choice of vocabulary short of them saying “yep we buggered up, now we’re gonna suffer” is gonna alleviate the Brits. I’m sure our esteemed colleagues in the French and Italian departments are brewing up like a T-series ammunition fire.

The one time Europeans all agree on something… lmao.

GR1 is a thing remeber

which isn’t top tier

You see no issue with a supersonic airframe at 11.7 receiving 9Ms?

When a 11.7 F14 doesn’t even get 9Ls

not even that. 10.7s shouldn’t see AIM-9Ms on a supersonic platform fullstop. in an ideal world a decent amount of 11.0s wouldn’t see 9Ms but that’s not the case.

Also also if it didn’t go up in BR that would probably revive the “British Phantoms AIM-9L when?” debate.

i mean yes but the only other option is the phantom which also sucks
