Russian Bias in 2025?

RU hasn’t really dominated anything.

38MT being insanely questionable is a ludicrous statement.

11.7 - 12.7 and now 12.0 - 13.0 doesn’t hold the most players in the game, not even by a long shot.

BS… stop living in stereotypes/prejudice

For naval I cant say, but for the rest… again igronring the othre nations.

…if far from the “most popular” and “most visible”… I bet 60-70% of the players havent reached more then rank 5, if not even lower.

  1. Im not gonna even bother answering that.
  2. Russian dominance was completely true in ground rb and is completely true in naval with the last update

Not sure what youre trying to say here but the target of complaint was not the SU30 but the questionable existence of the best A2G weapon

Again no idea what the german BBs have to do with a russian paper ship thats orders of magnitude better than what everyone else got in the last update

Who said that thats what im thinking? People just dislike it more when the country of the developer gets preferential treatment

What am ignoring? Russia was performing insanely well in top tier ground mainly due to the questionable addition of the KH38MT.

Youre right, its not the most played but its the end goal, the new main br for marketing and the new focus for Gaijin so its absolutely the most visible

Do quote me their WRs and other metrics all the while 38MT was running unopposed.

You can read and use google i suppose. They were always performing significantly better than nations with similar player count

No they weren’t.

I rescind my previous statement

Thanks for acknowledging facts can’t be refuted.
Players being skilled has nothing to do with “Russia” which still isn’t a tech tree in War Thunder.
The “best” A2G weapons was not the issue until it was on a supersonic platform precisely because the platforms give IR AGMs the range advantage needed to defeat Pantsir and others, and even then it was at 12.7 and then 13.0 where it was rarely seen among most top ground players with a maximum of 4 players of any team having such CAS today.

Also being mad that Gneisenau or other ships are “paper” when there’s evidence of all ships in War Thunder being laid down is hilarious.
Soyuz’s armor is 1000mm in exactly 1 profile that only lets two turrets fire on targets, outside that profile it quickly drops to below 600mm if you want 3 turrets firing.

Do you write stuff for the sake of being annoying?

best no Quotation marks needed. And it was still a massive reason for the USSR/Russian tech trees performance otherwise there wouldnt be such an insane drop between May and June

Im not mad about ships like Gneisenau for which we both know the Hull and the guns or Sachsen which is just a beefed up Bayern. I (and a lot of others) are mad that a paper ship with no references to compare it to whatsoever is outperforming every other new BB by an insane margin for no reason

Skilled players moved from Soviet top BR to other tech trees. Simple as that.
The cracked door frame is not because of poor build quality, it’s because of being drowned in water.

USA had unkillable OP CAS since 2022 yet its win rates didn’t change because CAS does not win matches.
USA has had meta MBTs since 2020 yet its win rate tanked because skilled players moved to Sweden and Soviets in 2022.

I get the feeling to attribute player skill to their machines instead, but if you’re going to cite player skill [win rate] you know what you’re citing.

There is no drop in games played and player count big enough to explain that drop in wr.

mmh yes definite statements without source, my favourite

For nations with high player counts the average player skill is in the basement anyway so the couple good ones make way less of an impact. The strenght of the machine only makes a significant impact if the skill floor is low enough so the average player can utilize it

If you just want to damage the autoloader sure, other wise it’s far too inconsistent

Only for a long shots (500+ meters)… anything in urban envierment is one-shot-kill

I genuinely do not know how you managed to put so many words in my mouth I never said or even genuinely implied 🙄

The ERA does over perform that’s a genuine fact known by everyone else here I don’t know what else you’re talking about

you have just proven that you dont know what you are talking about

the pantsir missiles self destruct at exactly 20km

If that was true then USA wouldn’t have had all the skilled players from 2020 to 2022.

@glock991 The post you replied to made zero statements about you or your beliefs.
Go look up what words in mouth means.

NATO is correct about ERA no matter how many times your posts claim/imply otherwise.

Unprovable claim.

Ask veteran players, the M1A2 was spammed by very good players 4-5 years ago.

ok? that still doesnt have any relevance in a discussion about average player skill of popular tech trees/ BRs in the year of our lord 2025
