Both were looked individually and both received a BR increased based on their performance.

Comment

This is not a BR discussion topic. BRs are not decided via on paper comparisons or stats, but how they perform themselves in game.

Hello


The F-104S TAF had the highest efficiency at 10.7, therefor it was not possible for it to remain at that BR. Any vehicle that's at the very top of its given BR bracket is subject to being increased. Its also worth noting it could face all the same vehicles that it faces now, with the exception of the lower 9.7s it outclassed which it previously could but now cannot face.


As its only been a single day since the changes, its too soon for any reconsiderations of BRs at this time. However the developers will monitor the changes to all vehicles and take them into consideration in the next BR update.


Me also personally playing a vehicle is not how vehicles BRs are decided. But I have indeed played it tonight and extensively before the patch too.

Hello


Steel beats is not a valid source of information.


If you believe a vehicle is incorrect and have material to support that, please make a report: https://community.gaijin.net/issues/p/warthunder

It was announced more than a month in advance that F-14 will be moved up to Rank 8, long before the sale:


There are no plans of moving up F-5C or A-10A.

Hi! Welcome to Thunder Show and the most epic moments of the past week. This episode’s theme is do-it-yourself. Why rely on someone else or expect some additional opportunity when you can just go and snatch the victory on your own? Let’s get started!








So, what do you do if something incredible happens in your battle that deserves to appear in Thunder Show?

While in the game, go to “Community > Replays” and find the replay.


Press the “Rename” button and give it a memorable name.


Open the Replays folder in the game folder: search for the file with the name you have just given it.

We are always expanding the vehcile roster every major update.

We don't plan to add later ordinance to the F-4E currently as AIM-9L/M, AIM-7F/M and LGB will simply require an increase to a much higher BR where it's flight performance and radar will let it down. There are already other Aircraft with these missiles at higher BRs that offer that type of performance.


The F-4EJ Kai received them for reasons we previously explained (Japan has far less top options). So just because something could carry something, does not mean we will keep upgrading it as it just results in its BR going up. We are always open to consideration, however it's not a given just because X carried Y at some point, it's definitely going to be added. It's down to the developers.


Regarding the F-4S, whilst we don't entirely rule out adding further Phanom family members to the game, theres nothing spesific we have to talk about right now.

*European headquartered game with developers and staff all over the world.


We don't have national biases towards anyone. We all care about military vehciles regardless of where we come from and are focused on representing them in game for everyone to enjoy.

Comment

It won't as we are doing it deliberately to see you rage ))))


On a serious note we don't rule out a Ram II in the UK tree at some stage. But for now the M4A5 is entirely correct both in designation and placement as intended. It's not a "fake" name.

Comment

Please just PM myself or any Tech Mod. No need to derail topics over unrelated reports.

Comment

This is again where it was mistranslated / miscommunicated. I believe MarkVader has even edited his response in Discord to clarify. So that screenshot is not accurate and likely out of date.


It was not co-cordinated properly at all with Community Managers and not approved by CMs or Admins. MarkVader did this by himself without checking first with the Russian Community Management team if this was a suitable.

Hello


The F-4EJ Kai is currently the best Phantom variant in game. It has a superior radar to most aircraft in the game, has the joint best BVR and 4 x AIM-9L. Other Phantom variants such as the FGR.2, FG.1, F-4J and F-4J(UK) can be found at 11.3. However the EJ Kai performs better than all of these. Thus its BR was increased. At this time, the MLD / MLAs performance was not indicative of a required increase to 11.7. R-60M is also not equal to AIM-9L. However the developers will continue to monitor the situation.

Comment

I would just like to clarify here (as your wording may mislead people) that this is not an offical survey or collection.

Comment

Hello


This change was announced before the release of the last major update, Apex Predators, during the first dev server.


Its not a mistake.

Comment

Hello


Multiple other 10.7 tanks were also increased to 11.0, including the T-80U, T-80UK, T-72B3, Leopard 2PL, M1A1 HC, M1A1 AIM, Challenger 2 and also several other lighter vehicles. The changes were across all nations as a wider step to increase the top ceiling of the BRs. These tanks will face the same opponents they already did before, with the exception of the weaker 9.7s.


As we mentioned already in the response you highlighted, changes to improve the Ariete are planned for the next major. We will follow the stats of all vehicles at the top end and make any required changes in the next BR update.

Comment

Lots of feedback was included in this update, with the 11.3 expansion itself as well as many other changes all coming from feedback. Unfortunately not every piece of feedback can be implemented as desired.


As we explained:
