I saw that many if not most ppl disagree with assigning BR to squads.
Personally I think this is a good idea as it prevents ppl from using the same squad type in low lvl matches (something new players can’t do). If you want to use the same squad type, you still can but you will be placed in higher BR.
Imo this makes a lot of sense.
Though maybe I don’t understand something. Actually I suspect it is the case so correct me where I’m wrong.

Will not prevent ppl from that. You keep all of your squads after merge. So you can run several medic squads for example in tier 1.

yeah… that’s why having tiers on squad is better.
otherwise i could use type II / III / IV in earlier tiers… not fair.
but unfortunately, no matter what devs tries to do, there will always be some rather special person trying to exploit in his/her favor the system in place.
that’s just nature of some people.
Wrong curently all assaulter 1 we veteran have become assaulter 2, assaulter 2 are tier 3 or 4 out 10, so you can keep spam assaulter in low level, same machinegunner
In the end squad BR is useless as fuck for veteran and hurt only new player

I really dont care since I will most likely end up playing only top tier.
But they should put first engi squad on br 1, not br 2. It should be available from get go.

My interpretation was that it was what the squad progression will look like for all new players, and that the BRs are assigned to the troop types and not actually the squads themselves.
Agree about engineers.
However I guess the current tier 1 will more of speedrun level. Pretty much today’s beginner battles against bots but with real players.

Yeah, but I think it should be starter squad. Everyone should have them from the start.

Yeah, you’re probably right. Since higher soldier classes have a higher perk points assignment they don’t want to make it unfair for new players.
That’s the reason from what I understand it.

I thought all squads will be somehow reasigned or merged.
But if we will have several BR1 squads of the same type, it is pointless.
Though you are also right about perks.
Nope, you should be able to keep all squads you currently own. At least that’s what they said.
And If i understand it correctly, you will end up with duplicate tanks as well. For example 2 tigers, two (3) panzers III N and so on…

btw they need to return assaulter 1 and make medics seperate AND create medics II - III squads so people have a reason to use them on high tiers. the medic I is already barely good enough for low level fighting and the only good reason to use them is for grinding exp from healing nonstop.
I am using medics only in assaulter squad currently. 5 guys with smg (with option to take one eng) is noice.
Squad limit is better because as of rn we keep the squads which means I can spam like 9+ free Assaulter II squads but newbies cant.

Though when you take into account that all troops will have max stat rolls, it won’t really matter much. There aren’t any troop types that will have a major advantage and be able to take sprint speed/vitality/horizontal reduction while the lesser tiered troop won’t.
