Undo the BR change.
The less utility a plane has, the less likely people will be to buy it.
Before, a plane could be the High BR in low group, right in middle of BR, or the low BR in a high group.
Now it needs to be so extremely good, you’ll fly whole lineup of 2 levels lower, just to use it. Which is “rare”.
This change has BURNT the BRIDGE between BR’s
making many of the best planes unusable
and severely limiting the combinations of all.
There are so many good premium 3.7 or 4.0 or 4.3 (just as an example) you buy these 3 and make a 4.0 line up
with the rest being 3.7
But now, 3.7 for 3.7 group, 4.0 for 4.0 group, and 4.3 for a 4.3 group.
People wont want to spend money if the return is not as good.
Which is less for Gaigin, which means less quality for players.
I cannot overstate how drastically the change to Battle Ratting calculation has damaged my game play.
Almost everyone of my lineups across all countries is seriously hurt.
I spent a lot of money and a crazy amount of time to spade and ace those lineups.
I WILL NOT spend any more money and will spend drastically less time playing unless the change is reverted.
Please change it back.

Can you be a bit more specific with vehicles

What planes? The only low tier plane that got a change in arcade was the xp-50 losing its air spawn.

He’s talking about the BR average formula in Air Arcade that got changed a few days ago, it may have “ruined” some of his lineups. When before it would bring down the whole lineup BR by 0.3 now it keeps the top vehicle BR in it as the lineup BR.
Although you can still downtier single vehicles easy, it’s harder to downtier full lineups with vehicles of similar BR.

The only difference now is, you have to leave out the ONE BR 4.0 plane in that lineup and replace it with another 3.7.
It exclusively brings it down by 0.3 with a full lineup.
Full lineups never changed.
The only negative one in my opinion is the KV-1S going to 4.3
theres a couple vehicles which went up because their peer at the same BR sucks, instead of just moving the worst one down they made the better one suck.
this BR change was pretty much only that and some other changes nobody asked for
it was 1x 4.3 + 1x 4.0 + rest 3.7 and lower to = 4.0 | BUT NOW it = 4.3
it was 1x 4.0 + 1x 3.7 + rest 3.3 and lower to = 3.7 | BUT NOW it = 4.0
it was 1x 3.7 + 1x 3.3 + rest 3.0 and lower to = 3.3 | BUT NOW it = 3.7
it was 1x 3.3 + 1x 3.0 + rest 2.7 and lower to = 3.0 | BUT NOW it = 3.3
and so on…
your example here is 2 steps higher, so with only 1 plane at that level it steps down 1 step
But is also the point. why would you fly a whole line up of 4.0s at 4.7 lvl just to have one 5.0 plane at 4.7?
Doesn’t that seem like bringing a knife to a gun fight?
why not just fly a full 5.0 or 4.7 line if that’s what you were after?
Before though it was a balance with sacrifice.
Imagine whats stronger
7x 3.7 planes VS 1x 4.0 + 1x 3.7 + 5x 3.3 or lower
it was not a path to OP victory, it was a sacrifice that gave flexibility to lineups
that is a HUGE difference though.
7x 4.0 planes VS 1x 4.3 + 1x 4.0 + 5x 3.7 planes is already balanced,
1 plane 1 step higher then BR, in exchange for the other 5 being at least a step down from BR
That doesn’t make auto win.
But now
7x 4.0 planes VS 1x 4.3 + 6x 3.7
it makes very little sense to build a line up like this
why would you want to take 6x 3.7s to a 4.0 match? for 1x 4.3 plane?
the bridge is gone, and the a great deal of the utility of the planes gone with it.
Here, I highlighted it for you.
