Update 2.59.0.92

Balancing decisions are made with the best possible version of the vehicle in mind, not the average.

Situational and mostly used against helis. Youll carry two at most, and this niche is covered by M830A1 anyway.

Not at PC rn but if my memory serves me right they have distance fuze HE not proxy, which without ballistic computer is just worse HE and loses to M830A1 which is proxy fuze.

My expert crew with fully trained loader is 5.3, which is still faster.

And please adress the much better sabot Clickbait/HC gets.

Finally I don’t have to bully T-72B3 with my Click-Bait

Not against them going up. But my major issue is they over br’d a lot of french and german stuff to make the 12.7 changes look reasonable. The abrams didn’t need to all go from 12.0 to 12.7. 12.3 was fine and the HSTVL shouldn’t be 12.7 either. You could make a case for the aussie one getting 12.7 because of it’s thermals.

And the first sep should have stayed 12.7 or been 13.0.

Also note how the bmpt no longer has to face APS equiped tanks.

Which is absurdly wrong. You do not make decisions based on an outlier data,but rather the average

So…

When is the rest of the air tree getting decompressed. This change ONLY decompressed 12.3 and 12.7 a little bit, but didnt really change all that much overall. Didnt even touch the insanity that is any BR below 10.0 that didnt get touched last time we had a “decompression” either.

This does mean the Thai F-16A OCU is now not the worst F-16 at its BR (it has 9Ms and can slave IR missiles w/ HMS, ADFs cant)

Nope, T-80U-E1 gets time fuzed HE, not proxy.

I hate sounding this rude unwarranted, but I think the issue is your skill level and not the Abrams being too high.

This change introduces a whole new top BR of 15.0.

That’s the problem. No one who decides these things plays the game, not at least in the game mode in question. And it wouldn’t even have been necessary. Gaijin probably has an internal “StatShark” (if you don’t trust the original), and could have compared it’s characteristics with the top performing fighter at 7.7 ,and seen that it outclasses it in almost every performance metric.

Oh I 1000% agree with you on this. All Leclercs, EMBTs and 2A5/2A6 could get a 0.3 BR bump down and nothing would be negatively affected in terms of balance.

Radio fuse HE, even with the changes to how rangefinders worth in correlation, will always be substantially more gimmicky and just objectively worse than a standard proxy fuse, I agree

I dont agree with the keo or leclerc changes either.

Also 8 people plus op said all the brams needed 12.7. Thats far from a group consensus.

No good player ever uses barrel launched ATGMs except the BMPs/775, M551/M60A2. They are not good and any dart or APDS is better in every single way

And then gaijin slaughtered helis…

… and the rapier going to 10.3 is insane, we have the 2s38 and t80 prem staying 10.7… like what.

Again, the change was not only based on statics. But your fellow players feedback.

It was kinda fun while it lasted tho, ngl. But this is better for the game health.

Kiowa is clearly a Mi-28A adjacent… clearly

Now the Milan, which has no countermeasures, gets matched against the MiG-23M. What a fantastic game.

Oh absolutely but against low flying helis they do have their case use.
