Leaving the Falcon at 8.3 after removing the APDS was bad
Moving the US m24 up to 3.7 but leaving it at rank II makes no sense, but …
Moving the Jumbo 75 to 5.7 in Arcade is a bloody crime
Having it face 6.7 vehicles like Tiger 2 and 6.3 regularly like the Jagdpanther is bloody ridiculous
US now has zero heavies at 5.3 but TWO at 5.7
the 75mm gun is a pea-shooter when it faces 6.0+ enemies. In a trade-off it should earn battle points (in addition to SL) for every hit it soaks up for the team. The adamant reward is pretty meek.
it honestly makes me so mad, trying to play minor nations is so hard because they do this selective win rate crap with minor nation tanks, theres more people who are good at the game that play minore nation so those tanks go up in winrate, in turn causes them to be moved up in br, but the vehicle wont be competitive anymore
It’s available on the forum, sure, but it deserves an official announcement from the devs outlining the changes made to BR, not just a note at the bottom of the “Updated Planned Battle Rating Changes (April 2026)” page, which is only available on the forum.
It’s normal to have multiple communication channels, and that’s fine, it’s a method used by many, but the fact that this information is just slipped in quietly and not discussed further with the wider community is disappointing and clearly highlights the issues surrounding the SU-30 premium and BMPT.
Patchnotes displayed in game are to list changes, not to explain each of them in details (especially with BRs, where you can have dozens of changes).
We will not change in game patchnotes into few pages article that will simply discourage players to even check them, because TL;DR. If someone is interested in details, he comes to website and/or forum.
I understand your PoV but sadly we live in 2026 century and we are far behind era of “I will read this 3 pages essay before I play battle”.
In principle, I agree with you; I just think it’s a shame.
But hey, we’ve seen patch notes longer than this one before, let’s not kid ourselves even in 2026.
Honestly, this topic is going to come up again in the next BR update, since it’s practically become a running gag.
I hope there won’t be any announcements about the Su-30 in version 13.0, because the Kfir C10 and the F-14 have better stats than it does, lol. (It’s a joke, please don’t do it.)
I feel like a lot of well liked suggestions were simply ignored…
it’s amazing that with 10 likes on the TU-95 suggestion, that it was totally ignored… it is not a great vehicle where it is now.
It’s bomb load is lower than the TU-4
Good to see gaijin have once again ruined at least one italian lineup and at the same time never touch over br vehicle like the Otomatic
It isn’t a real round of br change if you don’t show your hate and contempt for italy right?
2.0-2.7 vehicles finally get some breathing room thanks to the 3.0-3.7 BR changes, though I still think a lot of those could have been a bit better executed.
The Cromwell V needs to get APHE if its going up to 3.7.
The Sherman II visual and armor model just needs to retextured and ported to the US and French M4A1’s now that they are 3.7. It was very strong at 3.3, but it needs the updated better armor model to meet 3.7 standards.
Many of the current 3.7 Shermans that are noticeably better than the M4A1 should probably go up too, like the Composito or III/IV. It just feels odd the have such a discretion in capabilities between equal BR Shermans.
I’m not really sure why the AMX-13 FL11 caught a stray this update despite multiple people proposing moving it down from its original BR. It’s just a faster Chaffee with a smaller crew, and no stabilizer or .50 cal. It should match it’s BR.
