The Belgian F-16A OCU's BR placement

It’s literally impossible to have it for free right now. It’s a squadron vehicle that just came out tuesday, meaning at a maximum a player can have 40.000 RP in it out of 580.000 RP, and would have to purchase the rest with GE.

Thats the OCU, the context of

was this

I thought you were referring to the squadron F-16.

0.7 BR RANGE READJUSTMENT MENTIONED

Life is good again.

Doing 0.7 does not fix compression at all, tired of hearing about it. Terrible idea.

Your Idea has always been a flavour of “hurr durr 15.0” that will need constant adjustment every six month or so.

  1. I’ve said far greater than 15.0. Ideally right now with no further additions we need 17 or 18.0.

  2. BRs needing maintenance is a universal truth that will always be the case. This isn’t a smart argument. Your 0.7 system will require the entire game to fundamentally change in a massive way to facilitate it.

“change in a massive way” and it’s just a change in MM code.

One would think, perhaps, I’m referring to the repercussions and aftermath of such a change.

The main issue with 0.7 is that it’s a band-aid fix to BR compression. 0.7 won’t fix the new F-16 being both worse than other 13.0s, but better than every single 12.7, or it won’t fix the Mig-19S or F-100 being 0.3 higher than the F-86s or IAR-93.

are all war thunder players like you?

Plato cave resident, afraid to go out on the account of the false truth made by shadow puppet on the cave wall?

Seriously. I’ve seen your ilk trying to shot down any attempt to make the game better one way or another. People would think you were paid by the corp for all these statements.

This assumption again? None of us 0.7 people ever said there will be no BR adjustment in the future. changes will and still be made.

This doesn’t work. You are now trying to argue that I’m “afraid of change” because I don’t support the exact change you want, while I’m advocating for a different type of change. Get real.

Decompressing by adding more BRs or making the matchmaker put 3 BRs in a match instead of 4 does different things with similar end results, which is fairer uptiers/downtiers matchmaking among players.

Having 3 BRs in a match means that there is less difference between bottom and top vehicle capabilities. But by spreading stuff with more BRs while keeping a matchmaker with 4 BRs doesnt mean that is better or worse, it all depends on how much you decompress.

I’d take both if I could

Are the MiG-29G and Su-27 and Su-33 all the same BR after you make it 3 steps? yes? Oh look, you didnt solve compression. One of hundreds of examples.

In that specific case, the flankers are currently under tiered with the current BRs. But that’s a different issue.

Some vehicles might be kept on overtiered/undertiered state to avoid them facing some others at max uptier or max downtier.

Having 3 BR matches would aliviate that issue and allow the flanker for example to be 13.3. A su-27 will face up to 14.0 right now, with the 3 BR group it could get uptiered to 13.3 and still face at most 14.0

They aren’t. Moving them up to the same BR as F-16s with strictly superior FM, missiles, and avionics isn’t fixing compression either.

No, it doesn’t. It gives no extra room to the Flanker. You would have it facing the F-15E, Mirage 2k5, etc

But you are assuming that by having a 3 BR matchmaker no extra BRs would be added.

Obviously, we would still need a few more to spread things around, especially at top tier which is extremely compressed.

If we keep the 4 BR matchmaker the only difference is that we would need even more BRs to make a similar effect.

I don’t care how, I just want decompression.

I can not, nor can you, comment on some 0.7br spread, decompressed version of the game that doesn’t exist because neither of us have a consistent reference where vehicles would go. You’re also going off topic here.

Original comment:

The statement was that 0.7br “decompression” has the same end results as raising the BR cap, which is obviously not true as I have shown. You never said anything about combining them at this point.
