And it can be solved by decompression.
That just makes CAS op witch really sucks.
The main issue is from the early jets to the next gen jets, like Sabres, Mig-15s, G.91s, and other similar places.
Reality didn’t have the hard divide. Why should the game have it?

I dont remember the history channel special about korean war vets fighting in berlin with their secret time machine.
Because this is a game meant to be fun while war was at no point fun
And jet fighters barely ever fought propeller fighters, except for the Me-262 obviously
If you wanna follow that logic, F-4s have faced F-22s sometimes, yet I don’t think you’d like to be uptiered to top tier when flying an F-4
You memory does not affect history.
The game does that for me.
Oh. Did they not?
Did korean war vets fight in berlin?
Is that relevant to the question of a hard divide or is it relevant to your ego only?
I mean technically they could have, just not with a time machine. Korean war vets could have also fought in berlin, but no korean war vets were in berlin in 1945 as obviously the korean war hadn’t happened.
This is probably a nightmare for ESL lol.

Ground has from 7.7 to 8.7
7.7 no stab, no laser, no thermal, aphe
8.7 laser rangefinder, stab, darts, thermal gen1
Reality didn’t have a BR system either. This hard divide is for gameplay purposes, just like how the BR system is for gameplay purposes.
Sure, Corsairs and Mustangs may have fought Mig-15s irl, but it simply wouldn’t be fun ingame.
Taking 1980s SPAAs out of 1940-50s BR wouldn’t make CAS op. As specified in my post, all guided A2A and A2G armaments would be rank 6, with obvious exceptions being things like the Ki-87 and possibly te HKP3C.
You’re correct, decompression is the solution, however my suggestion is a form of decompression.
no more relevant than what I was replying to
two top tiers and bottom tiers would be really crap.
move the weirdly modern things out of their respective BRs (gepard and similar from 8.3, Ratel from 6.7, most SPG artillery) significantly higher so they cant abuse ww2 tanks having no armour to a 155 HE, HEAT or handle radar lead indicating spamcanons

Obviously, in Korea, a lot of props and some jets met.
Which is obviously not what history says, no matter “vets in Berlin” or not.
All it would really mean is vehicles like the Maus would never get uptiered, and vehicles like the M60A1 (AOS) would never get downtiered.
That would suck for stock grinding, but I think the benefits of this change would outway the negatives causes by the stock grind.
Although if it was my choice, the whole modification system would be removed from WT, and used only for things like dozerblades.
I can’t think of a way to move the Gepard/Gepard clones and LRF artillery high enough that it doesn’t ruin WW2 BRs, without being so high that the vehicles themselves suck.
With my hard divide idea, the Gepard/Gepard clones would be at 9.0 or 9.3, which means they would be facing 9.0/3 aircraft which who they should be facing anyways imo.
Fair
That can be solved by decompression.
In air, you jump instantly from meteors/vampires/J29s/F-84s right to Mig-15s/Sabres/G.91s with nothing in between. It’s like if ground went right from Tiger II Hs to Cent mk3s and comparable tanks with nothing else in between.

Yeah i get why you think so
It will suck for everyone. Whatever BR is one lower than top, will almost always be uptiered to the top BR. And whatever is at the bottom BR will always be uptiered too. It’s just a bad idea, especially since it can be solved entirely by BR decompression.
I agree.
The best we could realisticslly hope for is no more parts and fpe and the ability to reasearch what we what want first ie removal of tiers.
With rank 5 expanded to 8.7, uptiers will be far less punishing. Even then, I would rather be uptiered in a T26E5 or Super pershing, than be uptiered in a T95 or . . . really any 7.0+ heavy tank.
Just decompressing BRs can’t fully solve this though. As long as cold-war HEAT and sabots are facing WW2 tanks, and as long as Gepard/Gepard clones are facing planes lower than 9.0, we’re going to have issues.
We can’t just shove early coldwar tanks up to 9.0 and Gepard/Gepard clones up to 10.0 cause they will get completely demolished in uptiers. The only real solution I can think of

Once we separate rank 5 and 6, we will be able to start decompressing BRs properly.
