Anyone else getting getting the same matches?

Playing the USSR I keep being put into late join matches where 3 zones are already captured or 500 reinforcements are already gone.
I know late join matches were always a pain but I don’t remember them being this bad.
Anyone else seeing the same?

Not surprised since whole Soviet faction is basically dead.
Plus you’ll very often end up replacing players which have already quit the match (because they have lost the first objective so fast).

It’s getting worse and worse for USSR which is really surprising since they do have strong gear.

I had the same with US, attacking the germans in Tunisia with already 300 ticket gone and no progress on the point. Three times in a row.

People understand that their best bet to grind the event is probably germany.

Tickets bonus, and cap speed, should be neutralized for all factions.

I think there’s still a leftover bonus for axis in some maps :thinking:

In Moscow, the germans seems to cap sooooo fast imo

Because when I lose my squad defending the point, I don’t have the time to spawn and come back, the point has usually already been captured. I don’t really have this feeling in other maps.

I think it’s just… all over the place. Because on some other maps, disarming bombs take almost 30 seconds for them!

It’s hard to follow, really…

It’s old leftover balance that devs used with prior campaign system.

I’d clear everything to neutral value, everywhere. :thinking:

I have to say that trying to adjust for player base bias with ticket recovery rates and capture times was a mistake.
That adjustment has not kept up with the fluidity of the player base and is now benefiting more lopsided teams.

I do not recommend using US or USSR, both factions are a disaster right now, US only can bully JAPAN getting on low BR games with BR3 equipment, and USSR it’s beyond salvation, only fun to do is to fight planes and kill tanks, there are people not only bots, which makes it even more pathetic.

Remember when “muh Russian bias” was a meme around here?

Pepperovsky Farm remembers.

Appears they are in the process of doing just that, along with making capture zones larger in ninja patches.

Japan is straight owning US even with their tier 4 gear. 43 win streak right now as Japan

I have been playing Japan this week and getting something like 85% of win, only got owned by very superior BR3 US planes and equipment, but in very few occasions. Only stacks teams and “clans” are a real menace on US and USSR.

First game of the day… Just joined the game and already 560 tickets gone. Seriously … Just wanted to make use of that 75 % booster. I could n’t even leave my spawn because of Pak40/Pz IV J and german armoured apc… Thanks for the absolute state of the game

At least it is a quick way to participate in 10 battles… If I ever want to play again honestly.

Yeah, you can’t really carry by yourself unfurtunatly, or you have to overload your brain cells for the entire game. Not fun if you have 10 games to do… Pretty sure I will just play germans or japanese like everyone else, which does not amuse me at all honestly.

The Germans have it.
And the Germans are against the Soviets.
So, of course, the weaker side will be abandoned.

Its pretty weird, I would argue that BR3 BR4 and BR5 are only ruinded because of Tiger II H, people dont play KV, T34s and IS simply because they can’t risk running into the almost immortal German monster under the bed.

Its really funny to me, I see Panzer IV Js all the time - which are rather bad vehicles in general but no one dares to bring in T34s anymore.

The Soviet player base is literally witnessing a Tiger hysteria right now - just like the US did back in 1944.
