If matched up against decent pilots, sure. But I just feel like that has the potential to be really abused against new players I guess.
another reason itâs br1 and not higher:
hunting tanks or apcs, is the ONLY thing that plane can do. it doesnât even work well vs infantry, and it cannot hunt down other planes as itâs possibly the plane with the worst handling of the gameâŠ
a BR1 comparison:
granted it might not pen as much⊠but it pens anything at itâs br⊠and even higher as all German tanks have very soft roofs.
Itâs FAST.
it maneuvers wonderfully, so it can also dogfight like a champ. itâs powerful.
Duck⊠can only take out tanks.
âŠ
Itâs what I keep saying. thereâs more than the canon barrel to set up br. For ONCE, the Duck is at a correct brâŠ
but the problem is seen elsewhere, like for the marders which should never be br3. In fact, almost all TDs should get lowered by 1 safe Dicker and Su76 that already got lowered to a proper br. Imo, ofc.

Paid plane isnât a fair comparison, but yeah you make a fair point. Ultimately though I think it will just suck to play against for noobs in tanks at low BRs, even if for experienced plane players itâll be easy kills.

Whatâs your favorite IL2?
I know, I usually hate using premmies as example.
mmmh letâs take a wothy br 3 plane then:
or
(both are so great I can never decide which I preferâŠ)
Can the Duck compare to this? 
Thereâs nothing those IL cannot do. They erase tanks. They can dogfight to a degree (other CAS planes) and they can delete infantry to boot.
Is the Duck equal because it sports a 75mm?

Marder III have a much better gun, 138mm(151mm for III H) penetration APHE. Other hand two examples you gave are both premium squads, their penetration is less than 100mm, M8A1 only has AP shell.
Marder III in BRII will be overkill.
Those 2 marders have clogged the tech tree tanker 2 sqd too much
To developers:
Thank you for finally adding a TT Australian squad. The uniforms and shotgun are great.
However PLEASE add slouch hat or digger hat and make it an option for customisation across squads.

And get sniped?
No thanks
Agreed, I want Australians with slouch hats or digger hats. Thatâs mainly how we identify them AS Australians.

mate, you missunderstood me.
I mean use STRG / CTRL like with all other tanks where the commander looks out of the tank. I donât meant this to be permanent 
So you can decide like with all other existing tanks if you want to use it or if not

thatâs a fair point and tbh with you I havenât recognized, that the penetration values exist in the new enlisted ressource data.
yeah, that wouldnât be fair for the enemies. I thought that both beauties have less penetration. my bad.
Reason why Marder is Br3: They sold the Pz.Sfl.Ic at BR2, which is essentially a pak 38 50mm on track. So the Pak40 75mm on track is Br3. Cause money.

but they also sold the KV2 premium that is seemingly the same as the upcoming TT KV2 except for coax MG.
That the same as selling the premium jumbo but it have sandbag and stuff in the front
I think the Marder III and Marder III (H) should be downgraded to BR II, after all, these two things are obviously unreasonable to be in the same BR as the Panzer IV tank.

Test server is using Battle Eye anti cheat itâs not optional like with current version that sometimes use EAC or sometimes BE but mandatory change.
Since I put this in the weapons of the new update and not here Iâm gonna copy it all here and add even more stuff I noticed.
I donât know if anyone noticed this yet but Iâm gonna put this here.
The exchange rate is 1:50 free RP, a good exchange rate at least in my opinion, unlike before when it was 1:100
But now a few things:
Could the Aussie guerrilas get their Slouch hats in the appearance catalog? With ALL other British appearance options since now they appearantly have the US ones.
I also have a few observations to make:
-
The German Partisans ( premium, TT and most likely the event ones) should get their Volkssturm armband removed in every campaign other than Berlin
-
The Soviet partisans get normal army tops when equipped in Stalingrad even though you can buy the âpartisanâ jackets in the appearance catalog.
-
The German low BR paratrooper squad doesnât show in the tech tree nor in the shop so you canât try them, look at them or even look at their price (if you were supposed to see them on the test server).
-
The blue checkmark to show that the squad is maxed out is smalll but nice detail.
-
why do the guerrilas âcivilianâ suits look like this in the apppearance catalog?
the same thing goes for the paperboy hats in the lobby:
and if the stars align you also get them in other armies:
Continuation of the things Iâve noticed and what Iâd like to see:
- marking of the partisan grayzone-playzone
right now you donât even know if youâre in the GZ-PZ, so I propose to mark it on their maps with a simple one-way âcriss-crossâ (I donât know how itâs called) pattern like this with the same translucent gray as the rest of the inaccesible areas. Just to make it a little bit more clear.
- Artillery selector wheel
this is very nice even though Iâm used to clicking âRâ 3 times to get to the rocket artillery.
-
the Killzone around enemy infantry spawnpoints should be increased by 33%, if not more since now itâs LAUGHABLY small
-
The guerrilas should get ONLY 2 mags at most (e.g. 35 + 175 on the MP-719 (r) and 32 + 192 for the captured MP40)
And the âbestâ for lastâŠ

The damage of the German PPSh-41 obrezâŠ
4,1? Really? the TK-1926 has more damage. But now for more âfairâ comparition even though it still is a pistol. The TT 1933 has more damage than that while having a barrel of approximately the same length. The only thing it has going for it (the German obrez) is the 35 round magazine and rate of fire while being outclassed by ZK-383 in everything else âŠDarkflow, did you make that obrez this bad on purpose?why is there a 0.6 DMG difference between the German and Soviet obrez when the Soviet one has
the same barrel length with the only difference between them? is that the Heat shield, flash hider and compensato doing it? But that wouldnât make any sense, would it?

All factions of the BR II have high firing rate howitzers, which is a nemesis for convertible vehicles, so the Marder has no problem with the BR II.
why marder III is in tier III, doesnt make any sense
