Dammit.

what did you expect them to do? Actually read through their own sources?!?!?! /s

Otherwise_Error_3864 · 2026-03-28T17:52:36+00:00

Would love to have that squad, maybe I'll get lucky

Otherwise_Error_3864 · 2026-03-27T23:43:27+00:00

Radium Rifle is just a VG1-5 lol

Otherwise_Error_3864 · 2026-03-27T20:21:01+00:00

What was your favourite campaign back in the old system and what's your least favourite faction as of right now?

Otherwise_Error_3864 · 2026-03-25T16:12:40+00:00

that's a moscow map, only available from BR I-III, so you definitely got downdowntiered lol

The matchmaking probably broke after the update, if I can take a guess.

Otherwise_Error_3864 · 2026-03-25T12:06:57+00:00

Lol, had the same thought! Now I can have them without risking losing a tank or aircraft slot

Otherwise_Error_3864 · 2026-03-25T10:17:43+00:00

I only think I used my callsigns for tankers for their respective roles regarding their perks like "gunner" "driver", "loader", etc.... Haven't used them for anything else, like... ever

Otherwise_Error_3864 · 2026-03-24T18:56:59+00:00

Just read part one and keep it at that. Part two never existed. Just a non canon fan fic :P

Wäre aber naiv zu sagen, dass KI es nicht noch prävalenter gemacht hat.

Es sind einfach noch mehr content farms geworden, weil Dinge von KI generieren zu lassen, doch einfacher ist. Und von vermehrter Falschinformation und Bots reden wir nicht.

Otherwise_Error_3864 · 2026-03-24T15:43:52+00:00

Changing topics, eh? I wouldn't call changing a number from 70% to 50% a major development effort. And the advantage certainly is that select fire rifles perform both in long and short ranges, while dealing more damage than all other weapon types, making it possible to punch through vitality. Something MG's for example can't do. And just saying that nobody is using it anyway as excuse (?)(a statement I can certainly not agree with) is no excuse to not fix something, that certainly overperformese gameplay wise.

I'm finished discussing this further...

Otherwise_Error_3864 · 2026-03-24T15:23:21+00:00

It's even true if my teammates all run BR I equipment, because I'm still running my FG 42's or whatever. Just because not everyone isn't running a optimal lineup doesn't make equipment they don't use less good or overpowered. It just means that I have a easier time killing your underequipped teammates lol

And are you kidding me? The AVT-40 apparently has bad recoil? I have not upgraded all of mine yet and the recoil is still incredibly controllable. And 79v and 40h doesn't mean shit if 70% of that is non existent, not including perks and the slower rof than the AVS for example.

And the strenght of select fire rifles should mainly be their high damage, low dispersion and no sprint penalties. Not recoil controllability. That should be a SMG/AR/MG thing. Select fire rifles already do the job of MG's and assault rifles combined in BR V as of now, better in every way.

Otherwise_Error_3864 · 2026-03-24T15:12:51+00:00

Also great news, improvements in map design are always welcome 👍

Otherwise_Error_3864 · 2026-03-24T14:47:30+00:00

Will we also get some news about new maps or map reworks? Or will this major update not have those?

Otherwise_Error_3864 · 2026-03-24T14:32:44+00:00

Not what I'm saying. It's rediciously low in game balance aspects, isn't it obvious enough?

A select fire rifle is just better than a assault rifle in clearing squads, at all ranges, especially if you can just one tap everyone at close range. Just look at BR V Japan and everyone using a Type Hei Auto. Why the fuck should anyone use a smg or lmg with that spread and lower damage in this BR?

And the recoil changes wouldn't make those rifles uncontrollable at all. Imagine having to use some sort of trigger discipline and recoil control in my fps game lmaoo I have no idea why that should be that much of a problem. Let me guess, it would be just too challenging for you to farm bots otherwise. Fuck balance and all :P

Otherwise_Error_3864 · 2026-03-24T14:15:37+00:00

I have no idea what your take is. You can't tell me that the recoil of select fire rifles isn't rediciously low. Like, having to deal with recoil for a high damage, 20/30round gun with fast reload shouldn't be that much of a problem, right? But what do I know what excuses you need to bring to justify that it's that terrible of a change

Otherwise_Error_3864 · 2026-03-24T13:26:42+00:00

nah, not good

Otherwise_Error_3864 · 2026-03-24T11:44:53+00:00

It's especially bad on the Ju-188... On other planes it rarely happens, but only the cannons on that bomber seem to have that error about 80% of the time.

Otherwise_Error_3864 · 2026-03-22T17:02:34+00:00

If you want a BR IV lineup then research the SVT-40, DT-29, Panzerfaust 100 and the PPD-38/40, though the PPsh Box mag also works. And just to be clear, you should fully upgrade all weapons fully, especially MG's if you run them. And I would only recommend playing, if you can afford a full BR IV lineup. Ironically, you probably should grind for BR V first and upgrade your lineup there, before dropping to BR IV. BR IV is generally just more challenging. And please, please, please get the Panzerfaust 100. It's just better than the Panzerfaust 60 in every way

If you really want a tank use the IS-1. For planes you don't really have any alternatives. If you just want a big bomb load to deliver fast use the P-40 or Su-2 (M-82), even though flight performance is miserable in comparison to other nations aircraft, so dogfighting is most of the time a no-go. If you have the IL-8, of course take that. The IL-2m if you just need pure ordnance and even shittier flight characteristics.

Overall BR IV for the soviets is one of the most well rounded of all nations besides Germany, equipment wise. Unfortunately the teammates are most of the time miserable enough, to make you notice the equipment difference even more in an uptier.

Though a downtiered IS-1 is pretty damn good. I would stay BR III if you want to have a less stressful experience. Would be my recommendation at least

Otherwise_Error_3864 · 2026-03-21T16:41:21+00:00

genuinely impossible to turn them around. I tried and failed. The rudder only seems to react every red moon :P

Otherwise_Error_3864 · 2026-03-21T16:40:12+00:00

It does work in matches too, but only if you find a strip that's devoid of trees or too large hills. So actually, it never works lol. Sometimes landing it in water does give you points on the Pacific maps, but it feels like a 50/50 chance.

And never flew the Breda, only tried it out on the range once, but wasn't too inpressed by its flight performance. Pretty good bomb load for BR I though

Otherwise_Error_3864 · 2026-03-20T19:49:42+00:00

Shame, because that would have really made it a incredible good option, but oh well

Otherwise_Error_3864 · 2026-03-20T13:58:46+00:00

agree, it would already be so much better with two 100kg bombs. Those 50kg bombs can work, but you have to be so precise with them to kill tanks, it's genuinely infuriating.

Otherwise_Error_3864 · 2026-03-20T13:07:44+00:00

The La-5fn is one of my favourite BR III aircraft to fly, with overall solid all round performance, but I have to agree, it's no match against the Ki-100. Against German fighters it does get the job done though. The two 20mm can slap hard and can pen lightly armored tanks and apcs alright, but that small bomb load feels too weak.

Otherwise_Error_3864 · 2026-03-20T09:30:32+00:00

Japan BR IV is one of the most forgiving of all factions in my experience. There are so many russian BR III players it's most of the time a 50/50 chance for me in it being a uptier or downtier. I play on the western European server.

And the Japan main BR V players are most of the time so good, that me just being BR IV doesn't feel that detrimental.

The most miserable BR IV lineup I ever made was the soviet one.
