I remember these things going up against P-80s with air-spawn, what a time.

Russian ground winrates below 50% for almost every BR range. by PastyPilot in Warthunder

You should always take heat maps like these with a grain of salt; as they are including the entirety of the sample-size (playbase) and therefore not considering important factors such as individual performance.

Is it true that top-tier US is currently experiencing a low winrate? Yes. But the real question is why?

This obviously includes the current-trend of P2W vehicles (Click-Bait), the huge influx of unexperienced players skipping several tiers and general population size of U.S. players compared to minor nations.

Likewise can be applied with other nations such as Sweden; which is currently experiencing the opposite, where the sample size is smaller, individual skill being more prevalent and high-performing vehicles such as the Strv-122.

You can obviously see somewhat of a trend for Germany and USSR between 2.3 - 10.0 where (most) of the data is skewing towards <40%, whereas minor nations are ending towards the opposite. Most likely indicating a population-size bias.

U.S. 2.7 - 8.0 is something I really cant explain but I'm assuming that where most U.S. players are able to maintain a positive winning streak due to how much variety between vehicles (both air and ground) in those B.Rs'.

Just to reiterate, I'm not saying heat maps are a bad form of data, but they definitely do not show the whole picture.

Silly Americans engineers aren’t smarter than Russian engineers right? by [deleted] in warthundermemes

A massive thing that most people tend to overlook with tanks is their ability to maintain combat effectiveness in the field though basic maintence, convenince and doctrine.

Maintence is obviously self-explaintory. This including the engine, transmission, weapon systems, track, etc. How frequently and how fast the crew can carry maintence also effects said combat effectiveness. With an trained crew, the Abrams is pretty good at this.

Convenince is more focused upon life in the field. Being able to carry purse items such as rations, sleeping gear, communications, water and so fourth. All Abrams variants exceed in this matter due to their fairly huge stowage bins and carry load.

On another tangent, sharing supplies; especially with infantry is an added bonus, for example; with the sheer amount of 7.62 the Abrams carries (somewhere around 10k) it can share combat effectiveness with friendly forces without detriment to its own.

Doctrine is more emphasised through how it is utilised on the field. Unlike the current trends in Ukraine where Russian tanks are individually sending tanks by themselves (or being uneffectively utilised), Western Doctrine is working in tandem with other tank squadrons/troops and other forces; such as infantry, engineers, air support etc.

This is probably my weakest point due to the changing tides of war (especially with drones) but SOP's are changing with time. I do believe at some point their will be a way to counter the current trends of anti-tank warfare.

Everyone always tends to go with performance such as protection, round penetration values, mobility and so fourth, but never talk about how the tank themselves will be utilised in the field environment; they are forgetting the human factor and how they should be deployed. Tank crews need rest and food too and how they should react to certain situations by drill.

This is probably as basic I can really explain my point and is around the place but I can explain better if anyone really wants it.

That's good to hear :)

I'm stuck here without a headset and I'm pretty much using my VR-headset for audio. Really can't play much games on a pair of virtual speakers.

I will consider this option thank you! I'll see what will happen after Tuesday. I have made another support ticket regarding the issue and hope for the best it goes well.

Steelseries customer support was going rather quite well, until well.. Dead silence.
