This would create a gigantic imbalance, imagine you going to play with your Pz3J1 and suddenly find a T34 or a Kv1? Imagine being a poor Mirage and having to face the Tomcat at 60KM? The BR system, despite its flaws, is the best and most balanced system possible. You can take your poor Sherman 75 and play against Pz4s and not Tigers. Despite some flaws like compression, it is the best we have and people complain too much.
I wouldn’t want to be in the Tiger 1 and see an IS3 on the corner looking at me
Why don’t you just quit the game then too? You complain about balance but the idea you defend will only generate more imbalance, you’ve never even touched a modern vehicle
If you are unhappy with the base mechanics of this game, you shouldn’t play it. That’s bad for your health.
By a literal order of magnitude, since six years separate the Pz III and the early development stage of the Tiger II, while the T-54 started development in late 1944, literally when the Tiger II was brand new on the battlefield.
The point is I’m saying that people who shout for balance are nuts… I telling the complete opposite! Read what I say instead of telling nonsense…
The base mechanics of the game is why I play this game and not the mentioned above games to begins with… but it didn’t start out like this crap we have today, with every BR I look there are mixed era crap.
And this AurenKarach think this is balanced… I don’t want balanced game… but what he calls balanced is can’t be further away from balanced… the way it is now and it keeps shifting more and more… because of the way gaijin ads things to the game.
Going to point out one more thing just for out of context…
Z51 German destroyer. 4.7 have less guns than a 4.3 destroyers similar 128cm cannons… less torpedoes more AA… because of the AA it got pushed higher than a more capable destroyer with more guns… how is that balanced? Not to mention it’s in the same BR as the mitscher and the wilkinson… that have only 2 main gum. But that 2 main gun pumps out tripple the ammo than the Z51 can dream about…
And if we are wanting to balance and not want to get separated era than why don’t we balance out these ships too? For instance give more ammo to the German destoryers so they don’t run out if we are not want accurate era system why bother being accurate when it comes to equipment? Why the soviet tanks have radio in them? Most T-34 had only flags to signal to each other… so let’s decided already what we do with this bull@hit balancing let’s be consistent about it or don’t do it at all…
Yes, wanting a PVP game to be competitively balanced is what’s mad, not historical matchmaking, trust me bro.
Moments like these make me wish there was a laugh reaction on this forum.
I don’t “think” it’s balanced. I can just check Statshark. Vehicle win rates, K/D… That will tell me how well or poorly a vehicle is performing.
German tanks could not employ their full turret rotation speed while on the move. But in War Thunder my Tiger II can rotate its turret at max speed under any condition.
WT is way more arcadey than people realise. Always has been. This is because it’s primarily a shooter game with mass appeal, rather than a full blown sim. It’s fine to prefer something else, but it’s pointless to expect WT to be something it’s not. Like I said, there are other games.
This game turns more and more into a science fiction game. Planes or tanks who only existed on the drawing board like the Tiger II (10,5) or with the diesel engine, the Flakpanzer V Coelian, M4 T26. Other vehicles like SM.91+92, G5N1 had only been tested for some hours aso. It seems that you folks put these obsolete things in only to stuff out the tech tree or earn some money with premium vehicles. btw: the money you earn should be used to fix the effing bugs still here for more than five years like stop-freeze or the plane bug (engine sound, side view but no chance to do anything but push “j”) and annoying masses of players daily. And why are you pairing WWII vehicles with post-war ones? This is a ridiculous state-of-affair. How can you pair a Tiger I with a M41 A1 (Vietnam one)? What about stopping this chump “+ 1 BR thing”? The higher it goes the less depends on how good you play. It’s only how good your armour or pen is. This is priceless bad. Pair e. g. 1,0+1,3, 1,7 +2,0 aso. So you can really get a chance. And not the thing at 1,7 and the AVRE-monster. and btw: not even the aiming helps (e. g. AVRE: gun red - but when you hit it the barrel explodes, or the B1: coupola red - shoot on it: 4/5 of the cew is out). And in the end: why are critical posts here deleted? ty for your answers.
So it would be not balanced in higher BR right? Why exactly?
From 6:45 he brings it to 6.0 ( I think it would have no problem in 7.7-8.7 either… it’s a damn mantle clicker…) There is your damn proof.
I bring the Dicker Max at 5.7 and have a great time. Should it go up from 3.7 to 5.7?
A content creator selecting a match that went well and ignoring the others is proof of nothing. You can find plenty of videos of uptiered BT-5s too.
What you need to do instead is, as a normal player, play 10 or 20 or 30 battles at 8.7 (not 6.0, since 8.7 is the BR you requested) while the vehicle is stock. Then post the results and report how frustrating it is. That would be something closer to proof.
BTW, at 6.0 it would still be fully enclosed within the “WW2” BRs, so it’s useless for your historical matchmaking purposes.
Theres another video fighting coldwar carp. This think can point and click anything, it have the mobility as a light tank. Pls explain me why does it have to be in 4.0? Can you? Cause it can point and click anything… and don’t come with the bullcrap that “you have a hard time when it’s stock…” dude it have only 1 type of ammo… You point at something and shoot, if you hit you kill… that’s all to it… that can be done in any BR. why is it in 4.0?
Yeah why not? it’s capable…
