The Belgian F-16A OCU's BR placement

You misread. I said they do different things with similar end results. The result is decompression. Both decompress.

Obviously, we can’t just make the 3 BR matches and expect everything to be fixed can we? I was just talking about the idea of both.

Adding many more BRs will work with the 4 BR matchmaker.
Just swaping to the 3BR without adding more BRs will make things better but to further improve more BRs will need to be added.

I mean it’s not that hard to understand is it? I don’t know how else to explain to you.

They do not have similar end results. One still has compression and one doesn’t. Extending top BR sufficiently removes nearly all compression. Making the matchmaker 0.7 still has the MiG-29G, the Su-27, and the Su-33 at the same BR.

No you weren’t, see:

Using the word “or” here denotes exclusivity of the two methods.

My problem isn’t understanding you.

False. With only a 3 BR system change without any singe BR added will make the matches themselves less compressed.

You play 5.0 and get into a partial uptier in the 4 BR system, you are coexisting with 4.7 5.0 5.3 and 5.7

With 3 BRs since you don’t get partial uptier/downtier the match will only have, for example, 4.7 5.0 and 5.3

Since the match didn’t compress 4 BRs together, the game got essentially decompressed as a concequence.

Now before you start going over again about the 13.0 compression. Naturally some vehicles around there would need more BR space to distinguish between a flanker and the belgian F-16A or the mig29G.

The flanker would need to go up but some 13.3 and above would also need the same thing. Which means that some new BRs would be needed to further improve things.

But the 3 BR is also an improvement at the matchmaker level. Nothing complicated to understand.

Stuff being undertiered and stuff having to face shit with 30 years tech gap is not the same thing at all.

Relevancy?

You literally said MiG-29 and SU-27 later on. that’s an issue of undertiered shit being undertiered but can’t be uptiered because directly at the peak of it’s BR cap is literal god (Rafale-Typhoon).

On MiG-29 it’s because of stupid baseless FM nerf and it should stay 12.7 as long as it got R60M and 27ER, even if their FM got fixed because the weapon suite are just so pathetic to go up and see Hornet and MICA Mirages. But you get the point. with 0.7 MM range and slight BR decompression to 15.0-16.3 pretty much a lot of the issue is alleviated.

The way it is right now, across all BR range, 1.0 BR difference can mean technological gap equal to that of a generation skip. maybe not so visible in GRB because tank moves in 2-axis space and all the thing that matters is the gun, but you can’t say the same about 3 axis vehicle like airplane. that further onward, rely on missiles, engine, avionics and other features that tank just does not have or even need in the first place.

Honestly all sukhois are on weird place. they got too much stuff to warrant up-BR but their avionics and the composition of said “carried stuff” aren’t just good enough to warrant actual up-BR.

If I recall america never sold/refused to sell japan any AIM-9M’s which lead to the production of AAM-3

weird. why the fuck would F-15J MSIP get 9M then? balancing excuse?

“Cause it could carry it”

Meanwhile japan never owning it

meanwhile the F-15C (which if i recall the 15J is just export 15C) can carry stuff like GBU-8. But by some miracle “japan never owned so cannot use” meanwhile 9Ms

Very pick and choose, GCS-1 should have been provided to Japan’s air kit for a while now (if i recall its still sitting in the live server files)

However despite all the proof been sent. There still seems to be a very selective barrier on what they deem it can or cannot

2024 topic lmao. several different bomb sizes too. what fucking Joke. always the Asian countries getting short end of the stick. even the F-1CK hasn’t came after all these days.

I know. But we have the F-14A which has garbage avionics and still has to endure 12.7 because of the loadout. The su27 could perfectly be 13.3 as of right now.

Its not a perfect BR for it but better than 1 plane suffering a bit than having a bunch of planes suffering because of it. This assuming that gaijin keeps refusing 13.0 decompression.

Imagine this: You are in your brand new F-4J happy to test out the second best sparrow in the game + HMD, you get a full uptier, you are facing Su-27s, with 10 missiles 2 more than you with the best SARH missile in game + IRCCM missiles that can do a 180º on you, you are dead.

Or maybe you face the F-4F ICE that has AIM-120 + AIM-9L/i-1, you cannot picth up ever; you are dead.

What about a Mirage 4000, it only has 8 missiles, with way more countermeasures than you and IRCCM missiles; you are dead.
Kfir C.10, J-8F, AV-8B+, all of those have FOX-3s, doesnt sounds really fun, but neither sounds fun a full downtier for the enemy thanks to the way advanced armament of the F-4J compared to any 11.0.

BUT with 0.7 of BR you dont face any FOX-3.

On top tier for example, what can you do in this

With the ±0.7 max br range this scenarios where 1 plane vaporizes another in everything dont happen anymore, i am not saying that its the only change gaijin has to do, like @七-十三 said

Oh yeah. hence 0.7 being the most optimal solution to me.

pray. 13.3 has to be the worst BR to play right now

13.3 is great to play right now. Most of the matches are partial downtiers or partial uptiers in 12.7-13.7 or 13.0-14.0.

13.3 jets can handle themselves just fine in uptiers. A 12.7 has more trouble facing just 13.0 and a 13.0 has a lot of trouble facing 13.7
