I get both points of view here, ignoring all the pettiness shown by a few.
If we aren’t going to get Gaijin to re look at the higher tiers BR’s and add up to a 13.0 could we not get a ‘BR Slider’ that gives us the choice of either +/- .7 or 1.0 in matchmaking? if we wind up waiting long enough for games etc I’m sure the issue would present itself in the data. I for one wouldn’t mind waiting a few extra seconds to get a balanced game than have the constant full up-tiers I seem to get 90% of the time
The p51C is not better then the xp50 given its airspawn an better turn rate an better energy retention and anyways any equally skilled pilot in a BF 109G2 (4.3) can beat said p51C pilot
No vehicles would become OP. If that vehicle belongs to that BR, a change from +/-1.0 to +/-0.7 would prove minimal in most aspects.
It can serve as a stopgap before reaching full decompression, which is what you are asking for.
0.7 takes more & longer work as you still have to analyze all vehicles to make sure there’s balance.
I never asked for a stop-gap, cause that wastes resources. Especially since decompression is occurring and is just flat out superior.
0.7 in 9 months thus far.
I expect another 0.7 in another 9 months at the least, probably more.
12.3 is coming this update.
And while 9.3 - 10.3 air has a lot of compression, ground is even more compressed due to being ahead of air for so long.
I’ll be playing more 8.7 & 9.0 jets to spade them since I don’t pay repair costs, but Super Mystere was a good jet when I played it earlier this year.
All vehicles.
At least with decompression they can act on hot spots before analysis is complete.
However, with 0.7, the entire vehicle collection must be analyzed to make sure no hotspots are created.
And no, 0.7 doesn’t fix the only issue with 1.0: Hotspots.
Only issue? There are many more issues with the +/-1.0 spread. Talk about getting matched with F-4 Phantoms as a MiG-17.
A simple fix like reducing the spread would prove effective and would be seen positively by the community until further, more permanent actions are taken (decompression). Because… What bad thing does reducing the spread bring? Every match is now packed with vehicles that perform similarly without making vehicles “overpowered”
