A10 going up to 10.7 while su25k stays at 10.0 is crazy. the current .3 difference is already debatable but 0.7 is just unfair
I think because A-10 has TV guided missiles
@@mich421More likely because the Su-25K sells like hot cakes :)
Stand off range A-10s with AGM-65s are basically untouchable by anything but a Roland
@@tranphi2968 lmao no
holy skill issue lmao
Gaijin speed running to get top tier US win rates to a sub 35%
Im glad i moved to the Swedish tech tree after experiencing US top tier first hand
I'd do anything to get those years i spent grinding back
Su25 is not here ha Where is it gaijin
I can already feel the pain of subsonic jets getting swatted in the air by top tier SPAA's
(Like the Strella to Panstir boss level type of shit)
1 like 👍 = 1 prayer for CAS players 😔🙏
Also “Gaijin listens to us.” No they don’t. The entire player base has asked for decompression and the 2S38 and here we are. With neither changes.
So, disregard the roadmap, personal posts from devs, ignore voting sessions.
Got it.
@@JustinPlaysTVyeah maybe listen to us by nerfing shit that has been repeatedly reported and complained about! Instead of nerfing the already hapless American tree even more
@@JustinPlaysTV
“The game desperately needs decompression.” Nothing.
“The 2S38 needs to go up”. Nope.
“The Pantsir has thrown SPAA balance out of wack and there needs to be equivalents”. Nothing.
“When are bomber cockpit placeholders going to be removed and cockpits properly added”? Nothing.
“Hey, the increase reload speed for the Abrams series hasn’t fixed how poorly they do against other tanks. What else is being considered for improving their efficiency?” Nothing.
“Any chance we can get the premium account multipliers back to their original vehicles instead of the reduced rate they are now?” Nothing.
“The ground vehicle progression is still a slog to grind through, even with premium account status and premium vehicles. Any chance we can improve this?” Nothing.
“Your data about regarding the performance of Western MANPADs is incorrect and they actually out perform the Igla by X and Y, here’s the data. Can we get this changed?” Nothing.
The list is a long one. And the community manager Smin1080p even admitted that they just drop the dev blogs and almost never revisit them afterwards beyond just moderation. Where’s the follow up on the severe damage mechanic? There’s been responses that it’s very hit and miss. What about the Abrams armor viability post? Still no follow up despite players stating their fix isn’t doing anything.
@@mokaso So, disregard the roadmap, personal posts from devs, ignore the voting session, as well as everything else that was changed.
Got it.
@@mokasoskill issues
Hopefully Justin you can see this is not a good change at all. USSR vehicles are the only ones that benefit from this. This changes are not something we really need, at least not in this way. There are so many aircrafts getting moved to to BR bracket that doesn't make sense.
-A10 Late with shtty mavericks that anyone and everyone can intercept and at best they give a crit, and a paper flight model is going up? To possibly face Pantsirs (which since its introduction CAS is almost non existent unless you get at least 3-6 planes spawn around the same time) Not to mention you're going to face F16s and some high end MIGs. Yea it has 4 aim9Ls but those LOVE flares.
-A4 Also going up to a BR where anything and everything will be able to counter it. Sure, having (2) Guided bombs at 8.7 was a little too much but maybe 9.0 or 9.3 would've been an acceptable change. Not a 1.0 change, it doesn't have flares, it doesn't have reliable A-A stuff....
-Q5L No air to air and no flares going to 9.7 just because it has laser guided bombs. AGAIN WHAT?...
-F5E Going to 11.0 at that point just use the F4E why even bother... Mavericks are not even that good to begin with.
I dont want to make this longer but i could keep going. And the Elephant in the room is how some of the USSR vehicles are (questionably) staying in the same BR or going to lower BRs.
SU25SM3 Going to 12.7 doesn't change the fact that it can take out anything and everything at 12+ km Im still salty that someone with a kill a cap point and an assist has enough to spawn something so broken.
I'm simply informing everyone of said changes, I have my issues with much of this as well.
i think the reasoning behind the Su-25s not going up from 10.0 is becaus they don't get access to TV guided weapons, which the IR SPAA usually have a hard time fighting against, I don't fully agree with Su-25s not going up but I think I understand why
Thank you for being reasonable, and have a great day!
Pretty much Both A-10s get mavericks that are fire and forget long range and prem A-10 also gets guided bombs vs Su-25s at 10.0 with a terrible guided missile or dumb drop bombs or rockets
@@sniper321fire the problem is that mavricks are straight trash, the HEAT warhead being the biggest problem, and not only that but mavericks HATE to overpressure pretty much anything bigger than a weisel, and the Su-25 can be both trash and amazing depending on the state of the game, if there is any SPAA, might aswell not spawn, but if the airspace is uncontested, the S-25O rockets rain hell upon the enemy
@BiasThunderz I mean mavericks are fine for me and I have lots of games in the A-10A late
@@sniper321fire the damage is just too inconsistent, I've played both Kh-29s and mavericks but having an HE warehead on teh Kh-29s makes all the difference
Makes sense that the Su-25 stays at 10.0. It has no viable guided weapons, it’s just a rocket truck. But I am not sure why the Su-25T and Su-25TM aren’t moving up.
It doesn’t make sense for me that the A-10A Late is a higher br than the A-10A Early in ground rb. I would argue that the Early version is much better because the AGM-65Ds on the Late version have terrible zoom. The AGM-65Bs on the Early are much better, and allow you to joust AA.
I predict that these new br changes will leave certain vehicles unaffected, and for some other vehicles, make them not viable in uptiers.
Interesting point of view
The AGM65D is way better then the B (IR compared to TV guided) with TV, you cant locknin bad weather, and the B has a difficult time locking tanks and AA with obstacles near.
@@WT_TheDestroyer that’s true, but in practice, you are unable to take advantage of its improved locking capabilities because due to the poor optics. With a targeting pod though, they are definitely much better.
@@Boris_The_Turtle both A-10's have an integrated targeting pod in the nose btw.
@@WT_TheDestroyerPave Penny is not a TGP. It's just a receiver for buddy lasing a target.
I think this will only make the compression even worse. I really wait to fly the AMX at 11.3 (no lineup at 11.0) so I can 9/10 times face top tier SPAA that will auto kill my at spawn and the only way to actually be effective is to just be lucky. GJ Gaijin
I’ve been grinding for the AMX and now it’s uptiered? Oof
Finally they increased A4E BR Before it was untouchable having only anti-aircraft guns at that BR and no missiles to reach it
Veak 40 was good against it.
@@reinyfrost3753 Yes You have that proximity munitions that other anti-aircraft don't have
They removed the proxy rounds on the veak :(
imo , 9.7 is bit too harsh , probably 9.3 would have been good , since it sucks in air rb and now it'll almost suck at grb aswell , just my opinion
@@balls_stealer20009.3 would have been pretty fair but 9.7 is just unreasonable.
I am so glad the A-7s are going down for ARB, that has been a massive need for a LONG time.
True
If anyone seriously thought gaijin would nerf their pet Russian planes they are delusional. Of course the su25's won't get nerfed while they nerf the underpowered a10
Skill issue ong
The SU-25SM3 got a higher increase in BR, I may not be qualified but I diagnose you with skill issues.
Both 10.0 Su-25s don't have better CAS than either A-10
@@sniper321fire oh but does that matter when you can slap them with 5 sam's and they fly away like nothing happened?
@willthomas9635 I like never see them tank a lot. Most times, my 1 stinger is enough to make, then spin and die or 2 at most let alone M247 and other gun AA just melts them
I couldn’t help but observe that the people who previously complained that the game was overrun by CAS have either left or started complaining that X nation now suffers/is hated by gaijin because the initial BR changes make the aircraft less effective.
Sorry if I sound negative, I just wish to point out my observation
*USA does literally anything well even when it MAKES UP for its fuckin weaknesses in other areas*
"yea were gona have to Increase that br or introduce a counter specifically for it - Gaijin
Another nation does well even if it has good or AMAZING strengths in MULTIPLE areas
"best balans comrade just as planned" - Gaijin
Exactly, even the minor nations gets better treatment than the US. For aircrafts the Israel and Japan get more modern version of US vehicles and better missiles at the same or only 0.3 higher BR's..
@@INeatFreakholy shit America suffers
Bout time y'all realized it's not russian bias, but anti-american bias. (Germany's top tier win rates make it damn clear they are the favorite, followed by sweden and russia.)
@@holstatt6896 It's definitely the mix of the both, they spread the russian propaganda of American vehicles being shit
In air sim my average winrate with American top tier jets is 70 percent, my winrate in the SU-27 is 17 percent.
No way gajin actually thinks the Q5L with only 2 guided bombs no flares no missiles is worth 10.7 the same br as the a6e and a10a late and higher than the su25
Speed
The su17 has no guided weapons and like 4 flare uses so it makes sense
@@aNiceRusslan you get all aspect missiles and are much faster than a Q5 my brother
@@6old_YT the r60m loses tracking super easy so open you damn eyes and flare
@@6old_YTI've flared R60Ms in the 111A at full afterburner (about 2100°F) from the rear. It's a good missile, just not that good.
While I'm ok with the idea of separate BR's for different modes, the aircraft they've chosen to move around is just insane. Some examples provided by the comments: The A-10 going to 10.7 while the SU-25K remains at 10.0, or the Q-5L going to 10.7 from 9.7with only two laser guided bombs with no flares or missiles.
Gaijin continues to surprise me, at how stupid they are.
The su25 is just rocket and bomb spam anyone who isnt blind and stupid can easily take it out
The su25k doesn’t have access to guidedbombs, as well as the fact it has a lower number of AGMs, a much weaker gun with less ammo, a lower countermeasure count, more difficult to use sights/optics/guidance systems etc
@@ItzCPU_no one uses bombs on the su25k. Also the su25k is just better in every way
@@Just-My-Clipsa lot of people use dumb bombs on the Su-25s but TT and prem 10.0 TT being better are terrible vs the A-10s in CAS with F&F mavericks
The problem is right at the 8.7 9.0 where the changes cut out, like a4e moved entire 1 br up, makes my line up incomplete since I'm still researching at that br
So now 8.7-9.3, the only top tier BR bracket for the US other than 10.3 is no longer viable, because A-4 was the only reason it was playable at all.
Thank you yeah it ruined my beautiful and fun 9.0 play now I might as well play 10.0 or 11.0 since it’s just gonna uptier me anyway
Jesus Christ, was I drunk when I wrote that?
@@harryshuman9637probably
imagine fighting f16adf with ur pesky 10.7 in a full uptier , would make the anti air duty more ez and rewarding but it would still be pretty funny to see 3rd or hek even some 2nd gen jets go against almost 4.5 gen jet 😂😂
A10 vs netz is hydrogen bomb vs coughing baby
@@BearcatThunder nah bro... have you ever watch top gun? its not the plane it the pilot
@@SHEEPS_123 truly , if the pilot is good enough it can kill a f22 with a 9mm pistol 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Bro no way they want to move up super érendard at 10.7, it's already complicated to play it in 10.0 because it don't have a greate turn rate and mobility in general but just because of those GBU and a low quality pod it gonna move up nnaaahh, don't do that gaijin
Yeah there goes me grinding Israel. Im playing 8.0 with the A-4s. Not gonna bother with this grind anymore. Ill focus on toptier france.
gaijin is smoking crack changing the Q-5L. No counter measures no A2A missiles at 10.7 is insane
Well glad I enjoyed the a10 and the tram for a while. No reason to play USA anymore might as well join the Russian forces and keep playing op vehicles.
HOLY MOLY IM POSITIVELY GOING TO ARRIVE IN MY PANTALOONS!!!!!
I HAVE THE NECESITY FOR AGREE WITH THEE, FOR I TOO, AM CLOSE TO ARRIVING INTO MY LEGWEAR
@@supercreeper6835 AH YES GOOD CHAP, I AM GLAD THAT YOU TOO ARE SYMPATHISING WITH MY CURRENT PREDICAMENT 😀
Happy to witness the death of the a4'e early that thing was so annoying to face in 7.7
I think it will push gaijin to move top tier tanks 12.0 and that will include the S1
A4E at 9.7 is ridiculous...
8.7-9.3 lineup for the US without A4E is ridiculous, basically you have:
- 2 tanks with sub-300mm penetration and no thermals
- 2 big, slow Pattons
- premium XM-1 with nerfed sub-300mm penetration
That's it, that's the bulk of your force. This is supposed to match the onslaught of T-72s and Leopards.
Gaijin just ruined another reason to play the US.
@harryshuman9637 couldn't agree more... the A4E is good at 8.7 but if in a full up tier it's absolutely outgunned in every aspect...
@@pdiggydog8439it’s at 9.7 in ground due to 4x GBUs (could be AGMs, it’s something guided)
Nothing at 8.7 can kill it reliably because of its GBUs, The amount of times I was killed by it at 8.7 was ridiculous.
@@hib1364 So why not move it to 9.3?
So let me get it right :
The Super etendard with 4 guided bombs and no thermal optics is going to the same br as the A-10.
sounds stupid....
tfw italy gets something useful for once, and then it gets uptiered away from any use (seriously Gaijin just leave the AMX at 10.7 so we can at least have a loadout with the KF41)
this does not work, imagine I take out my a10 at 11.0 and get a full uptier, now the rest of my team has f16's and I'm stuck in a slow fat weak a10 with the most ** air to ground missiles in the game. no problem hear at all.
and I'm assuming that the strela and 2s6 aren't moving up so good luck to everyone who plays the a10.
also why is it the same br as the buccaneer? These changes just compress the BR's for GRB planes.
imagine you take out your buccaneer and get shafted from across the map by an aim7m, yep no problem comrade.
they forgot that planes can still fight other planes in GRB, hope you guys have fun fighting the f16 in your A10!
Just you wait, soon the p51h will go down to 5.3 in GRB an the f6f will go up to 5.3 in GRB, fair match up comrade.
The three changes for US CAS planes has made them completely useless and redundant, I will never take out the F5E, A10 or A4E again.
The F5E and A10 are effectively 11.0 because the US has no 10.7 tanks, why would I take out either of these planes over the F4E?
and mavericks...... well you would have better luck throwing water balloon's at the tanks... in WT
Completely agree. Same problem as with my AMX which yeah was good at 10.3 but where else would it go? There’s no line up at 10.7 which would even if there was it’s in pansir range (die at spawn). I shouldn’t have to be a God tier pilot just fly some CAS planes lol
@@Scarp7141 finally someone who gets it, so far three other content creators are agreeing with the changes for the most part.
@@SHEEPS_123 I know, I don’t understand why most people aren’t seeing this. I’d love to see how people fair with these changes lol

Q-5L at 10.7 is crazy
Can you do a talking head video on proposed content on the forums such as a Thai subtree for Japan?
Played A4E for a while and spaded it. I'd like to say A4E is too powerful at 8.7 and should not stay there. But it should not be higher than 9.3. At 9.3 you already have Mistrals and Iglas, which can effectively counter A4E at many times.
Decent argument
I don’t get the need for this and why people asked for it. All it seems to have done was break lineups. I see very few people excited for it and for more people upset.
That's because the ones crying can't space bomb with impunity anymore and are gonna let everyone know about it. If you like it or don't care you don't have to say anything. I love the changes. The whole point was to make less people play air in ground matches and actually play ground, or make it so spaa and fighters have a chance to kill strike aircraft.
@@Tigerman7warfighter That’s a lot of crying then because they are the majority from what I am seeing. Still, this seems like a terrible idea.
Cas mains coping and seething
@@blackop3765 You are aware of the fact that War Thunder was originally an airplane game right? And tanks were added later? And air superiority is a realistic tactic and an important one? I feel like the other people seething is those who don’t know how (easily it really is) to deal with CAS. Hint, it’s incredibly easy. Thankfully these are not set in stone and Gaijin will probably revert or change some.
My issue is that it simply breaks line ups with no tangible benefit to anyone.
It’s a well known effect; people that are happy or neutral do not feel the need to express themselves. While people that may be dissatisfied are more likely to leave feedback.
What about nerfing the Spawn Point requirements to actually spawn CAS, it is broken that you can spawn a full load out plane with only a Scout or an assist. I've seen people spawn fully decked out planes 2 minutes into battle
I haven‘t played this game since december. Is the grind still that painfull?
wonder how this will eventually effect the p-47s
USA only had the CAS left as strong suit and now it's dead too across all mid/top BR's...
A-10A Late is now gonna see the Panthsir in uptiers and it's basically not worth it to uptier your 10.3 lineup all the way to the top tier
They didn't even reduce A-7's BRs properly, the AV-8C harrier has better flight model, better gun and same missiles at 9.7 and they only reduced by 0.3 BR? It should not be higher BR than harrier if it's way worse than it...
And Su-25 of course get's away with it because as we all know comrades, Russia is superior and it should represented in game by shitting on those pesky american vehicles
womp womp
US already wasn’t really a strong nation at top tier, this is just the nail in the coffin really
Sounds like you only play America, you’re not doing so well. Then, decided to blame everything but yourself.
@@ItzCPU_ I'm not a bad player by all means, you can't argue that making A-10A Late 10.7 is a good idea, especially when keeping the Su-25 at 10.0
The A4E has flares though??, that change was completely deserved fighting 7.7 with GBUs.
Wtf the Italian AV going up to 12.0 what?!
bruh Q5L 10.7 with no flare no air to air ?
So much complain about CAS. I thought everyone had a problem with CAS being too stronk
Jaguar and buccaneer being put at 10.7 just made them unplayable. No one who has a tornado going to bring them in at 11.3
whats the point of moving the su25sm3 to 12,7 when ground is 11,7 ?
i feel like they shouldn't put down so many aircraft that have huge loads for dumping on ground targets, people have been complaining for ground only battles for so long and gaijin does this, where now f-16's and Mig's with bombs can dunk on 10.7's, 9.7's, it's kinda ridiculous
What’s goodie in the hoodie
I refuse to play anything above 9.0, so I will just stick with low tier is fun tier world.
I really don’t like that they left the same BR for the attack aircraft in air RB.
They suffer, Su 25SM3 at 11.7 against F16 and F15, Tornado IDS at 11.0... nonsense. they ignore the main problem.
Just increase the BR Brackets to 13.3 and put the modern stuff higher
Calling bs right now no Russian plane is really going up while they are literally op flying tanks
That is not true
Gripen isn't changing? What?
Im about to just move back to 8.7
a really easy fix for having CAS absolutely dominate GRB: charge more for CAS spawns. no reason someone should get a cap or assist and spawba KA50 or dozens of other aircraft and kill 8 tanks with fire and forget shit. top tier CAS is just too cheap.
You should revisit the T-90A
Q5L going to 10.7(from 9.7) with only 2 laser guided bombs, no countermeasures and no aam is just wrong. to make things even worse, its now gonna face pantsirs...
wish they reconsider some of these changes
Su-25 at 10.3 has a lot counters. Its guided weapons are bad to use.
Su25BM is poor to say the best.
Su-25T/39 are capable but they fight top SPAA and they can be easily countered.
Su25SM3 is insane and it will still be insane... going to 12.7 will not change much for 11.7 USSR players who have it tbh.
10.3 su-25 is op nothing can change my mind
DAY 6 of Kamov Ka-29 hasn't been covered in depth by a great youtuber like year in over 2 years almost 3, correct me if im wrong but it doesnt struggle as much as it used to
They killed so many planes by moving them to a dead BR. Skyhawk at 9.7?! Maybe with anti radiation missiles…
its a bit excessive what gaijin is planning here. Some BR ups and Downs are too overdone. Especially the down BRs Mach2 jets with CCIP against 10G AAM SPAAs^^
Also some of these fighterjets now can easily farm the Ground Strike Aicrafts that moved up and will have zero chance against the fighter jets.
Idea was good realiziation is typically dumb as fuck by Gaijin.
Why is it only about Jets? Props have similar issues.
As a first step they should have implemented it only for Strike Aircrafts as a Test. WHats the Point of moving like 11.0 Jets down to 10.0 to rape things like Q-5L.
The fact that they have forgotten or do not pay almost any attention to low tier or ww2 tier is insulting! not everybody that plays dayily and has spaded all the trees ONLY plays top tier, fuck man c'mon, you could make top tier a different game by now
The su25k has no TV missles less flares and worse missle US mains crying as usual
Gaijin showing off us their nationalist ass again
A-10's going up is so annoying dude
We could take skilless cas out of ground rb that way ya know it’s ground rb and not ground scout rb hid in a plane for the rest of the game
And the su-39 is still unplayable in arb
Boohoo bruh it’s not supposed to be dominant in air to air anyway, although Ik you think it should be because the 25 and 25K do that
Ayit at 10.0 rly gaijin? And u cant even play it at this br cz there is no lineup. The closest one is 11.0 but for this u have the kurnass
AMX going to 11
Yuhh
Is china worth the grind over Russia. Like I know right now Russia is better but later on will china be better?
As a China tank enthusiast, yes, the tech tree is worse but only because Gaijin (assuming you only talk about top tier).
They are, however, much more fun to play, so I would say it is worth the grind.
they need to put all the SU25‘s to atleast 11.0
hell nah, su-25 could be uptiered to 10.3 but 11.0? fuck no
@@mishimishifus7243why not 11.0? They eat stingers for breakfast and are impossible to kill, while they have stupid nuke rockets that can one tap anything before it gets a chance to fight back!
A10 and Su25 need to go up in BR in air and stay they same in ground. They are fine where they are in ground but they just ruin the 8.0-10.0 bracket for air cuz all aspect missiles
Q5L in 10.7😂
I'm just happy Gaijin finally makes this needed change. I am certain there are many aircraft yet to follow and Gaijin knows this. But they are doing something.
That is very important.
the su25 going to 12,7 is useless since 11,7 is top tier in GRB anyway.
Lmao su weaponary outranges top tier anti air so it still doesnt make a differnce😂
The only thing I ever wanted from Gaijin was Battle ratings based on how good vehicles actually are with a hint of historical accuracy. Instead of BRs being based on performance statistics that led to wildly bad balancing decisions on countless occasions.
JUSTUN IM EARLY
So they are making cas more op
How? Guided munitions planes going up to BRs that fighters and spaa can easily kill them if they try space bombing, sure you'll see an increase in unguided bomb dropping aircraft but they for the most part have to get close and are easy targets for SPAA if not played right.
Im so glad i stopped playing this game😊
First to comment
Gaijin sucks what are these changes man
I juat hope all jets get nerffed to oblivion. No one likes getting abit on by CAS
Anyone that is mad that some plains are going up cas cope cry harder a10 at 10.7 god bless
screw you the A-10A sucks in every way compared the the SU-25K
Learn to spell
the fact any plane went down is bad news ...
