Chi-Ha Kai (currently BR2)

Is the 10 mm in gun caliber really worth +1 BR?


Let’s check other tanks on BR2:

Does Chi-Ha Kai really deserve BR2?

Agree, it’s already much worse than the panzer 3J, and that’s already BR1. Wish it was TT as well, but that ship sailed long ago

For added comparison at BR2 the Chi-Ha Kai is competing with the premium Chi-He, of which features the exact same 47 mm Type-1 AT cannon and more armour at the front of the tank, with both the hull and turret at 50 mm.

I vote in favour of the Chi-Ha Kai being placed into BR1.

Yes, there are many comparable BR2 tanks.

Like what tanks? The Chi-ha kai is litterally worse than the BR1 Panzer 3j in every regard. The puma has similar armour but at least is faster and can penetrate much more. The crusader has an infinitely better gun with similar armour. Why would you use this limited event vehichle over a free Ho-I, when it does every single thing better? By all means, BR2 tanks are much better, not comparable, to the Chi-ha kai.

25mm front armor, a tiny gun with a max pen of 77mm & almost no HE filler and the same terrible 20-rounds MG every japanese tank mounts.

This tank clearly belong to BR 1.

I could probably find grammar errors in almost half of the item descriptions in this game. They unironically just google translate garbage from the russian wikipedia

The most bizarre thing is that even Google translate wouldn’t generate lines like “matchmaker gather” or “unlock more slot”

That’s a human actually trying

I would literally go through and fix the English mistakes from Darkflow for free if they would let me. It’s a 1 minute edit and it would make the developers not look lazy / stupid

A couple years ago I offered CMs/helpers on the Russian side to translate stuff properly if they provided source text files but never got any further feedback

You are right. I mixed things up. It definitely deserves to be dropped to BR1.

I think most Japanese tanks are awkward in their BR placements.
