Russian top tier tanks need a fair buff

Historical balancing in this game will never NOT be an utterly awful idea. Russia would dominate the cold war, get stomped in modern age. What we have right now is a rather balanced top tier ecosystem that suffers due to FOTM and sales.

Well there is a thing called BRs so there’s no need for historical balancing just realism+battle rating but I guess that’s not enough for the russian tree

And we will have a compressed hellhole that is fun for nobody. Yipee.

We very much wouldn’t, we just wouldn’t have russia at top tier

It would still exist, just unplayable. Do you see why this is a bad idea? Or do you hate Russia so much you want them completely out of the top tier environment. Also, the game would be compressed. Powercreep has done this about a billion times in the history of WT.

The heavy ERA package on the B3 already by default makes it better than the T-90A, but the T90 still has a better protected turret overall.

Ok? Do you think there could be reasons for that?

Meaning? You trying to downplay good stats because they don’t fit some hypothetical made up bracket of goodness?

Agree to disagree. I think most people logically would see its a very obvious advantage that always exists and isn’t just “a split second” especially at range

In the meantime, how is this a fair game?

Realism is never an option in this game. Seriously, when that one specific group of players suddenly realize their wheelchairs can no longer ruin others gaming experience, they would cry out loud fr

Funny that you talk about split second advantages because Russian tanks don’t have that advantage.

They can’t reverse, they don’t have the gun depression for most terrain, and they have worse reloads. Until 11.3 they have the worst gun handling.

NATO and other tanks have all of those in their toolkit.

Losing to a Russian tank by a split second is always misfortune and sometimes (usually) a bit of a skill issue since as a Western tank player, you could’ve ALWAYS done something different. Western tanks give you plenty of opportunities and styles of play.

Statshark and it’s consequences have been a disaster for the human race.

If it’s unplayable then it needs to go down in BR. Easy. Why have a Br system if you balance things via selective realism?

You hail BRs as this magic bullet for game balancing and realism but somehow ignore the BR system being unrealistic? How can you be in favour of one unrealistic balancing system and be against a system that tries to be realistic but makes compromises for gameplay?

The Br system is an ingame system to facilitate balance between vehicles from different time periods and capabilities. Ofc its unrealistic, because it’s artificial, what on earth are you even trying to say? Is it perfect? No. But it’s certainly better than historical matchmaking or straight up making stuff up.

That is an average, not a maximum fire rate

If its helps I remember as well an interview with some random person talking about how darts turn people into liquid it was from a really bad documentary on like the after hours discovery channel so not the best source even if he could find it lol, but I do know what that one is talking about.

interesting, do you know what average means?

This match is a summary of top tier Russia. No matter how good you are, your own tanks will fail you.

You can’t carry with some nations’ tanks, such as Britain and Russia, and half the time Italy unless with its Leopard.

Is that a custom match?
