Russian Teams Steamrolling NATO - Top Tier is Broken Again?

[Projectil]

after reviewing my last battles in the winning team i was mostly paired with russia lol

[Ascension32]

After this update with the new panstir, and previous being BMPT, i think it has confirmed now for me that Gaijin are trying to boost russian stats even more. They already have the best CAS and most survivable tanks (in my opinion) and now with both the buk and new panstir they can counter every cas thrown at them. They used to be subtle with the favouritism but now its definitely becoming more blatant.

that Gaijin are trying to boost russian stats even more.

I think no matter what someones stance on the existence of a bias is you have to admit that Gaijin is very obviously trying to pad russian top tier stats rn.
russia was not underperforming despite an underperforming BUK and Gaijin instantly went on to work on that gap instantly despite other trees having more problems in the SPAA department or generally having a rougher time in top tier.

[SadRIPer]

Of course. If in theory, NATO nations have a “50%” winrate in top tier BRs, it’s because they count the games where you’re paired with Russia.

Vs Russia only, it plummets to 20-30% winrate easily.

Exactly. It’s so, so obvious. Very sad path they adopted

I saw some USSR players in this post perfectly demonstrating a Chinese saying ‘a dead pig is not afraid of boiling water’——ah yes, although I cannot prove where the USSR is weak, I just want to stubbornly say the USSR is the weakest，NATO is toooooo op.

Their intention is as clear as the middle east sky right now

If you can’t deal with T-72B3 armor using rounds as good and better than 3BM60, there are guides on improving aim.

Autoloader makes their reload speed consistent and also enables players to spend crew skill points elsewhere, as Reloading skill is useless.

I wonder how can you say that so blatantly , as to reach to the top tier you`ll require to pass a tech tree with SLOWEST possible reloads throughout the tech tree. So you’ll spend them anyway, as to make IS-2 and T-34 at least competitive

@Panther2995

So you accept the fact that overall mobility is still something Russian tanks lacks?

I’ve accepted that years ago, which is why I wrote things I wrote.

@Panther2995

if you think you can return fire if you got shot from behind i got bad news for you.

Who said anything about returning fire ?
You can fire at an oblivious enemy coming up behind you without even turning your hull one bit.

@Panther2995

Funny how you only cherrypicked autoloader part (which still impacts if you are reloading during that process) while completely ignoring other aspects.

Sorry but what you said here doesn’t change a single thing I’ve said.

@Panther2995

In return T-Series either loose 2 crew members or their ammunition cook off which basically means insta death.

Or a fuel tank eats your spall and you end up killing one crew member and an autoloader.

@Panther2995

There is no spesific terrain models that actually allows to T-Series hide more efficiently.

There is.
Even if you expose your tank, but less of it, you’re still hiding more effectively.

@Panther2995

You can also do this tactic with literally any other tank, its not something special to T-Series.

Them being smaller allows them to use more spots for this strategy.

@Milashny_Koteyka

If you’re interested in higher tiers, you should just speed past through IS-2 and T-34 ranks in matter of days anyways.

@SadRIPer

What is that, 75% winrate average over hundreds of game ?

Your 100-200 games are statistically insignificant considering those tiers have millions of games every single month. RU peaks at 57.9% WR on 11.3, which is far away from your doomsday 70-80-90%.

[BabySoEz]

@MotorolaCRO

RU peaks at 57.9% WR on 11.3, which is far away from your doomsday 70-80-90%.

Have you ever consider this is also include the braindead premium based matches?

[141_allen]

Yes. And that suggests what? The Russian vehicles are just better for noobs, but it’s like saying just because noobs can’t handle the mobility of ABRAMS we need to say Abrams is bad. There is a tradeoff, just whether you are able to take the advantage or not.

[Milashny_Koteyka]

Still basically until 9.3 you`re to use loaders. If you dont skip them with high tier premium of course, but i thought it is a PROBLEM of the game, not a path

[BabySoEz]

TLDR, remove those matches and RU still lead by a margin.

[MotorolaCRO]

Premium vehicles don’t really perform worse than their TT copies.

@Projectil

lol most maps are now altered in favor of russian tanks. hills and gaps everywhere giving them cover for rushing in and do CQC…

Hills are in favor of Russian tanks now ?
I have to remember that next time i try to peak one with 5 degree gun depression.

@Milashny_Koteyka

I would complain about it anyway, as its the most OP vehicle out there. Then again it doesnt make sense to call it “true protection” if its not proven on the battlefield with real battle and testing, only said by manufacturers in open data.

It does? Said protection was achieved based on BMVg’s testings.

You’re coping.

[Milashny_Koteyka]

@Jεcka

based on BMVg’s testings

who are affiliate AF and basically create an advertisment material. Lol. You`ll be the first one to say “Its not proven because NII STALI tells lies!!!” if we reverse that

[_Renzo]

Sure, if you also remove any losses caused by similar matches on the NATO side.
