death by firing squad.
If Statshark was a mistake, the fact Gaijin does not offer a decent/proper page with actual good graphs and performance metrics is the original sin.
I don’t usually endorse statshaming, however when it comes to balance it is a relevant topic, as most of the time, the vocal complains from X/Y vehicle comes either people with non-competitive K/Ds on that same vehicle, or people who have nothing at all related to the vehicle, nation or even the Battle Rating.

it does
this is you compared to everyone else
yes but why should people not ignore opinions of people who have shown to have a poor understanding of the game?
Heya bro, what I have to say is positive/supportive: You are still quite “new” to the game. Even though you have been playing 4-5 years, you are still “only” level 80. That means that you have not played the game “that much” or maybe just not very consistently. It takes me hundreds or even up to 1k matches with a specific vehicle to get GOOD with it.
Keep practicing, keep asking questions on how to use specific vehicles better/more effectively. It takes a lot of time. Good players didn’t just get gud the moment they started playing. Many of us (like me) have been playing 10+ years and are still learning new stuff all the time.
Cheers bro, happy hunting 🍻
EDIT:
Ignore the trolls man. There will always be people who just want to provoke others. You will gain nothing by trying to convince them. They will most likely just continue to ignore your points in order to piss you off, even if you are “right”. Work on yourself, not the toxic ones 👍

For this at least,
it comes down to:
- Do you have premium? You’re levelling up twice as fast.
- Do you play ARB or GRB? If ARB, you’re likely levelling up twice as fast.
- Do you play low, mid or high tier? High tier levels up almost twice as fast.
- if you play naval, lord have mercy on you.
- If you play prop tier ASB, you get ~2500 RP/15 minutes assuming optimum performance play without dying and always landing.
The amount of time it takes to advanced in levels is very, very, very variable.
Levels are 1:1 correspondance with RP gained per this table:
https://old-wiki.warthunder.com/Ranks
For example, getting to level 100 using only Bf109F4 or comparable 136% RP bonus vehicles -
You earn 2500 RP maximum per 15 minutes. (my last SB match, lasting almost 2 whole hours, gave me a whooping 15k RP!)
Level 100 needs 14482500
Therefore, 14482500/2500x15/60 = 1448.5 hours of gameplay.
Assuming you fly for 6 hours each week, that’s 240 weeks.1 year is 52 weeks so, boom - almost 5 years to get to level 100.
Now, let’s grab a random ARB match whose results I’d saved -
11 minutes for 8000 RP. Let’s assume I can average 8000 RP/10 minutes flying my F8U
14482500/8000x10/60= 301 hours of gameplay, assuming every 10 minutes I earn 8000 RP (which can be very plausible if I have premium and have talisman’d the F8U!).
Again at 6 hours/week, that’s down to just 1 year.

My stats are dogshit and barely approach 2kd on my best vehicles and hardly ever get called out on it. Like the worst thing that can happen with bad stats is some loser tries to shutdown an arguement on the forums or you get rejected from a compeitive squadron, it really doesnt matter and you shouldnt care.
Caring about maintining a good kd is going to suck all the fun out of the game, and there is no mmr, no ladder, no ranked, not even a semblance of reward like titles (outside of official tounements), or anything else.
Its like playing in random pub tf2 lobbies and stroking it to your stats.

If you care too much about your stats you’ve already lost the game
There are only two vehicles I am trying to maintain my K/D in: the Kungstiger (cause it’s my favorite vehicle) and the Japanese SB2C-5 (cause I have a 2.0+ or 3.0+ K/D if we count all targets)
I still find fun in those, because they’re my favorites and therefor fun. You can focus on K/D and still have fun, it just takes a lot more energy
There are opinions that are more valid than others. For example, when it comes to skill related matters expert opinions such as those from players who consistently manage to perform well at the game should be considered to have some more weight to them than the opinions of an average or bad player since they have clearly demonstrated superior knowledge of the game by consistently outperforming others.
Yes you’re allowed to have opinions but frankly they shouldn’t be counted on for an accurate assessment of certain questions. That is all.
Just checked mine, originally when it was new and unrefined, it said I was bad, now it says average.

It needs to be there since a lot of players just straight up lie about something they never do and gaslight so hard that when I caught them lying, they convinced me I made it up in therapy. You can also stat check other players when in doubt to see whether their claims is true or not lol

hehe, purple numbers :^)
i think is great website and helps me know how i am doing, if you cannot handle competition, maybe multiplayer games might not be good for you?
i like checking statshark on people who cry about “russian bias”, surprise surprise, usually i am greeted by bright yellow or dehydrated orange, always funny to do this xD

because vehicles do not use SR1 :thumbsup:
see faq here
Still insane that such a low KDR ranks me so high compared to peers.
Sure, just shows you how bad players really are.
I found the craziest pair.
P38E vs F4U-1D
The bmp3 is incredibly good, quite mobile, with thermals and ess, a great gun, good missiles, adjustable suspension and fairly good gh. It absolutely should be 9.3.
