Russian Teams Steamrolling NATO - Top Tier is Broken Again?

Man just let them cry harder at this point because these folks are the type that thinks:

Buy high tier premiums = you are master skilled player approved by gordon ramsey…

Gaijin made low-mid tier russian tanks trash like IS-6 and these folks never give a damn about jagdtiger being impossible to pen at front, somewhat at sides, and have outrageous gun armor somehow bunch of players lacks skills to use it even…

You know it had a “hidden” extra 200mm plate in the turret when it was added, and they arbitrarily nerfed HESH the same update it was added to remove basically the only shells that could reliably deal with it at the time.

Yeah… IS-6 and ‘trash’ in the same sentence. Hmm.

That thing virtually decimated it’s BR bracket when released - singlehandedly.

yep exactly the kind of player who would say something like this

only has rank 5 and only playing russia (this is all the rank 5 he has)


no wonder he says is6 is bad, he just bought it and is such a bad player he did badly
like actually how do you get sub 0.5kd in something like that, its not like you had to stock grind it

also how can you be so bad to have negative KD in every vehicle you have played

To kinda ask ,the main problems are basically unreliable/not exact stats given to us through stat shark (Basically leaving us guessing what truly effects matches and a vehicles stats), Matches being heavily influenced by flavor of the month, and having a “Balancing” system that’s a mix of personal opinions, guess work, and not having enough wiggle room to be truly balancing. right?

So the questions are, What are definitive ways we can see actual stats between vehicles?
What can we do to dampen/ remove flavor of the month so certain nations aren’t constantly steam rolled when updates appear?

and what can we do to improve balancing? (decompression sense we all know that answer. Probably up to 15-18.0 so lower br’s can be decompressed)

The best way would be to directly compare performance would be Cumulative Distribution Functions of the relevant stat, and judge by the shape of the curve.

It would be pretty easy for Stat Shark to implement.

The following tech trees had OP CAS prior to new SPAA: USA, Israel, USSR, France. Let’s see how often they show up in the top 5 winning tech trees.

2025:
February: Japan, France, Sweden, Germany, Italy. Sub-par CAS except France.
March: France, Sweden, Italy, Japan, Germany.
April: France, Italy, Japan, USSR, Sweden. France and USSR have OP CAS.
May: USSR, Japan, Italy, France, Sweden.
June: Italy, Japan, Israel, France, Sweden.
July: Italy, Japan, Israel, France, Sweden.
August: Italy, Japan, Israel, France, Sweden.
September: Italy, Japan, Israel, France, Sweden.
October: Japan, Italy, USSR, France, Britain.

Japan and Italy show up every single time.
Sweden shows up all but once.

USA shows up zero times despite having OP CAS.

I mean… he isn’t totally wrong.

Most HEAT, and HEAT-FS negate all the armor on the:
IS:3,4,6, and 7… which is the biggest thing they rely on.
Is-6 can also be shot very easily in the gunner optic / the commander hatch and KO the whole tank.
Has a slower reload / worse pen than other things of its br. But a devastating APHE round.

So I do understand what he is getting at.

More pressing is how bad the IS-2s are.

hmm this doesn’t look like a response to my comment, asking you where you think I’m magically biased, odd. I thought it would’ve been easy to find

gave an example in my post, but you clearly havent learnt to read or have a very selective memory

your statements concerning ah64e and z10me compared to your statements about mi28nm are extremely clear evidence of your bias

as if you didn’t have a clear bias.

nowhere near as bad as mister MI28nm being uncounterable is good, but ah64e and z10me that are much more counterable and have much worse missiles are OP

Did you know that you can shoot the barrel of any soviet heavy tanks easily because of that big muzzle break?

I don’t if you know it but many folks I battled against know this fact very well and act up on it very well too. Same will be way more difficult about German heavies with tiny muzzle break :D

Ok im now confused… are you suppose to pretend that nato thanks are bad or are you gonna brag how much better and sweatier are you compare to me considering you main american tree the most?

Pick a lane since only one of the choices are true while becomes false :D

You don’t even have IS-6… but sure I will pretend that you know million times more about IS-6 than me…

But also sure I will pretend that america suffers a lot because you have high rating and k/ds with it…

Rank 5 aka mid tier which I am trying to grind my tech tree out of since rank 4 soviet tanks are at the worst :D

Better question you should ask is why am I not crying about winrates like you nato fanboys do 24/7…

I will admit, I got rusty a lot ever since I left war thunder in 2023 because my core i5 pc can’t handle war thunder anymore…

As if AH64E and Z10ME weren’t indestructible as well, unless they fly high enough for ARH missiles to hit them.

Have you seen the Ldircm spheres? They’re all almost the same, except the MI-28NM has big gaps.

Also, the AH-64E over preforms in direct front / rear aspect.

you literally are ignoring on paper facts, showing your bias

“Claiming” and having actual evidence are two different things.
At this point your merely being a troll.

How are they more counterable, both of them have better LDIRCM than MI-28.

What exactly are the op vehicles?

Destroyed modules doesn’t stop ammunition, this used to be a thing in the past however leaded to terrible experience on the shooter’s end, specially with vehicles that had a lot of modules not critical that could act as protection ignoring spall and projectile.

I think the AH-64E hates me since I have been shot down by iris-t and buks no matter what I try.
