Russian Bias in 2025?

But the seeker is the elementary part that makes it so strong

You’re in the end balancing the vehicle as that’s the only thing that can be balanced, as weaponry doesn’t hold BR. Something worse in one aspect might be better in another aspect to mitigate the former con, that’s the whole basis of asymmetrical balancing.

Read above and yes it can change.
Someone might think that getting killed from something that shouldn’t exist at all is OP, as that vehicle in the end should account for exactly 0 kills in total.

You’re allowed to be biased, but don’t expect your biased opinion to hold any importance when it comes to game balancing.

No it isn’t, it’s the speed.
Seeker is pretty much the same as 65D’s.

  1. Yes in the end youre balancing the vehicle via BR but the decision on how to implement a missile is a balancing decision thats made before. And thats just a fact, they literally stated that in the Tornado Devblog for the brimstones
  2. Op is based on statistics and comparison not your personal feelings. Saying it should have 0 kills, because it doesnt exist is not an argument for a video gamed
    3.I dont expect that at all. I expect Gaijin to have a fair approach to balancing the game
  3. Its a combination of Speed, TNT equivalent and the Seeker but the Seeker is the only thing thats (probably) not real

Pantsir couldn’t and still can’t deal with proper CAS.
Not really the same situation.

If you repeat a lie often enough, people will believe it, and you will even come to believe it yourself.

This is a quote from Goebbels, which if we apply to the “Bias accusation is a coping mechanism for skill issue” as @_Renzo said fits very well to the situation we are in. Searching the word “Russian bias” in the Urban Dictionary is rather a fun activity to do.

Looking at the videos from YouTube that @TROOPER7 attached to his comment, you’ll see that people interacting with said videos always agree with the “Russian bias is real” theory (it is; contemplation or speculation according to vocabulary.com).

What I’m trying to refute is that: Russian bias is such a big lie in my eyes, a speculation, a crazy theory that at this point people hold this as the biggest truth in the game. I would go in full mind manipulation discussion but is so futile, perhaps you know where I’m trying to get.

And other SPAA couldnt even deal with horrible CAS before so my point still stands

I don’t know what you’re trying to argue here.
You can’t simply isolate one part of the vehicle and say it’s OP just because of that.

Pretty much is if the game tries to be realistic.
Nothing is more OP than being killed by something that shouldn’t be a thing in the first.

Stats don’t play a role here, as anything over 0 K/D is too much for that work of fiction.

It’s true, it’s speculation, but there were some purposely done wrong modeling and other things. So now that the game behaves strangely during the clashes with the Russian tanks, you have the doubt that we are back to those “dark days.” Unfortunately, that’s fear talking, but without evidence you should not say anything

Edit To avoid confusion! This

So now that the game behaves strangely during the clashes with the Russian tanks

Does not mean that Russian tanks behave strangely, it mean that if the game behaves strangely with America it’s normal; but when it’s against Russia it becomes a “Bias” problem

so… ‘‘purposely done wrong modeling and other things’’, ‘’ the game behaves strangely during the clashes with the Russian tanks’’ , ‘‘you have the doubt that we are back to those “dark days’’. (so there were indeed dark days)…sorry but all these sound like a real speculation to me…

I’m saying just that…? The game behaves strangely even with the USA. Bad things had left in some people a bad taste and now they are jumping on the “Russian Bias” wagon
+I remember that there was a tank with a piece of armour that didn’t showed up in the protection analysis but was presente in the matches, idk maybe I’m tripping

There were over a dozen tanks with armor issues over the years.
T-44-100 was an M36 Jackson in the fact it didn’t have a roof.
Merkava had its turret armor duplicated.
Etc.

Yeye. Thanks, but I wasn’t saying bugs and missing pieces. I was speaking about a fake add on that wasn’t sataded

IS-6 had this, it’s mantlet was duplicated, but the Jagdtiger had the same issue.

The T29 was also immune to being ammo racked during that time, that strangely took ages to fix too.

Thats! An error turned into a “problem” of “bias”. Just making stuf up!

So, Armor in general is a buggy mess so it can’t be connected to any one nation. Same with ERA except it tends to benefit/Bug out more with ERA with lots of KE protection. (Still not connected but people can “Assume” russian bias from it)

KH-38MT was a missile that probably should have been added with this last patch with all the spaa. Regardless on if its seeker is real or not (Spaa patch should have come 1 - 1 1/2 years ago)

Most other missiles should have also come last patch but with more capabilities. (fnf Longbow but without its MM wave seeker for balance and brimstones as well) (Also looks like less favoritism to 1 nation if others get at least side grades)

The BI still has stupid fuel efficiency (So a moderate reason for bias)
Magical dircm on helicopters that is just badly implemented.
Yak-9k still yakin about

And every mbt should have come with their components / turret ring nerf modeled. (Not saying the abrams or leo’s are bad but it is still a straight nerf against them until everyone else gets them).

Probably alot more but thats generally the most used in russian bias right?

GBU-39 should have a 1m or less CEP. The F-15E should be able to carry 28 of them

worst tanks? worst planes?
at what BR does this apply

Honestly, quite a lot.

I mean, ru tech tree have some great planes, but a lot of BRs have very poor cas options.

For example, you do not get any CCIP for dumb bombs until 10.3, while other tech trees are getting TV guided stuff.

Honestly, really good cas for ru are on:
1.3 - BB1
4.7 - infamous yak and pe-8
6.0 - second infamous yak
11.0 - MIG-23
13.0 - SU’s
