The Biggest Issue with Plane Balance Or How the jets and one letter in a plane broke the game. 🔧

Well since the jets the plane balance is gone out of the window so many planes need to be down tiered. But recently there is two other planes that are also braking the balance. Im trying to put some nice BR setups for all factions in this current chaos but more and more i think we must do this step by step and the first step is to address the KI-83 since the Ki-83 was not a ground attacker and the devs wanna make it one so there is really only one option this thing to be ground attacker :

Giving it two 250 kg bombs every other scenario creates many many problems.

Now lets go to the event spitfire that the devs messed up:

Dose this looks like as a BR II plane ? Well if you are using it and you studently became a good pilot let me tell you you haven’t this is literally a BR V plane in BR II. If I had to put it in the TT I would give it a 250 kg bomb and it will be put exactly here:

So this is how OP it is but I was sure they messed up the moment I saw it LF and it had the speed of F series so what would a BR III spitfire look like:

Well it would be one letter less really the F series:

So if we got Spitfire F MK IX would be easier to balance since if we make this changes to other factions:




Will fit as a BR III plane and the bomb can be buffed to 500 lb AN-M64A1 bomb and the issue of balance would be resolved. Many BR V planes will have to go to BR IV and many other planes require rebalance but would be much easier to do so if this two planes where balanced and now this two planes gonna make such imbalance in the game that I don’t know how its gonna get fixed and when you put on top the Jets and the many planes that require BR change and reworks well its one big mess. I will finish my German tech tree according to the new balance that the devs made just like i finished my other plane faction suggestions but it would be much more easier if this two planes where fixed. It will be nice the devs to fix a bit the game balance and think what they are adding before they make even more problems that will get harder and harder to fix. And there is many problems to be fixed for planes and instead of fixing them we are digging this hole bigger and bigger…

Just remove the bombs from jets and they become less appealing as fighters.

You cant do that since there is premium jet with bombs. The jets where a big mistake that its very hard to fix and will require a lot of planes to go lower in BRs.

Reduce speed due to bombs and offer a “Im sorry card” including 10 golds as compensation.
Nothing a good old im sorry card cant fix.

Mistake is quite underestimate

Dunno why, its pretty much same in every TT once you unlock a new toy its usually better than latter, which is just definition of progression.

Currently the problem I see here is the jets does everything.
Remove the cas ability and id say it reduces theyr usage quite significantly.

This require company losses that the snail wont like the only real solution is to rebalance the game according to the jets. Then we can have BR ±0 and the solution can be fixed without losses to the company.

They can do pretty much anything they like including changing premium squads to theyr liking.
Most likely covered in 194204857 pages long EULA.

Moving certain planes to downtier due to them being bad at BRV for example, just moves the problem to lower BR’s.
Hypothetically moving plane X from BR V to IV makes the IV planes again obsolete.
So its not exactly fixing anything.

We could have had it ever since merge but apparently we dont.

Well thats not exactly true some planes where in BR IV in the past and where good there other new planes are simply bad at BR V no matter how you look at it.

F4U-4 is a perfect example of a plane that was put in BR V absolutely killing it. And there is other BRs that have bad planes that dont belong there.

The one with HVARS ?
Would make the BR IV M8 rocket planes quite obsolete.

Aka shifting the problem to next BR.

The BR IV plane with rockets is a ground attacker how its gonna make it obsolete exactly ? one is a fighter the other one is a ground attacker and in the past they where exactly on the same BR for many years.

So this would be the only fighter with rockets ? Do I even need to explain how such fighter would make rest of the BR obsolete

Many other fighter with rockets can be put in BR IV. We have fighter with rockets in BR II and BR III. The two Japanese fighters with rockets also can be put in BR IV since they are not a BR V for sure.

Not with HVARS, which pretty much has been the issue of constant discussion regarding spam.

This just highlights how the issue isnt exactly solved but moved down to next BR.

The Japanese rockets are bigger then HIVARs however they are less.

Well it exactly solves the Issue since this two planes are useless in BR V the two rockets that they have are not big enough for BR V while you are having planes with more rockets on earlier brs and planes with much bigger bombs then this two rockets.

Same is the problem with P38E and many other planes that are put in BRs that they dont belong in. Since there is planes on lower BRs that are much better.

Tiger P is also quite useless in BR V because theres the H.
I still dont think its place is in BR IV.

Or STG’s, theres 3 variants just in TT. BR III, BR IV and V ? doesnt really work does it ?

Theres always equipment that is better than the previous its called progression.
Aka moving MKB to BR3 hardly is a solution of anykind just because its useless in V.

You are not making sense at all ok how P38E is comparable to to Tiger II P and Tiger II P is not useless at all useless against what winch allies tank is better then Tiger II P ?

Tiger P is useless compared to H.
Which was your somewhat reasoning here, that certain planes are worse than planes you unlock later.
Which is called progression.

Not at all this is your reasoning limited to your understanding of ‘‘reason’’

Kind of the only reason you brought here was that F4U-4 is “useless” in BR5
Yet, if it was in BR4 I cant really imagine any other plane id use over it aka making BR4 planes quite “useless”

Then again, if your reasoning is F4U-4 is bad against jets so is MKB quite bad against hyde or AK47 yet I still dont see reason to move it down in BR becaue it would be much better than what the below BR has to offer.

Sure there has been planes in past that were in too high BR and has been adjusted accordingly.
But F4U with HVARS is quite far from useless so not exactly comparable.

How P38E is progress according to your own logic ? Is it better then P-38G-1 or F4F-3 from F2A-3?

Well.
To be honest, rather than lowering BR
A better way would be to extend BR 6.
There are so many items in BR 5
It will be easier to balance some items by moving it to BR 6.
Just transfer the final SF and KTH, T26E1-1, Ho-Ri, and all Jets to BR6.
It can change the other things in moderation.
