Now that I see how the discussion is going on vehicles, I really think a more fine tuned BR range makes more sense.
Fist lets forget about the whole “BR3 can face BR1 and BR5 thing” it makes no sense.
And then instead of having 5 total BRs that each can be matched “±1”, we could get 10 total BRs that can be matched “±2”.
On paper this wouldn’t change much, but it would allow Tanks like the Panzer IV F2 to stay in the middle BR ( old BR3 new BR5 ) while the Panzer IV H to get uptiered slightly ( now BR6 ).
The vast majority of vehicles already over or underperform under the 5BR system so this here would make much more sense for fine tuning.
Also this would help the firearm balancing as well.
not really. there is absolutely no differences between BA rifles so they can all be on 1 tier, or max 2 tiers. SMG can be basically be divided between low rof, high rof and AR alongside their magazine size. tanks are little more problematic and planes are basically just loadout differences cause most of the planes fly the same.
also semi and select rifles can be divided into shit ones and good ones.
they are all the same. there is maybe 10-20% difference in rof between them and they all kill with one shot which doesnt make almost any meaningful difference in battle. same goes with high mag versions. that is why they need to be on one or max 2 tiers.
GL should be on their own tier depending on how nerfed/effective the grenades are.
that is why i am for reduction of mandatory grind and having lots of those extra guns as optional grind
