Combat notes: Battle Rating

Pretty video and all, but…

I’ll have to go with everyone here, with Steam guys coming, surely you guys realize only 2 br queues is a bad idea, eh?

I mean, it’s not as if EVERYONE here keep telling you…

which i find it funny this exscuse, since the chinese client does have a rule of matchmaker of 0± . yet i don’t see them complaining that much.

they even get bots.

ugh… idk…

br 1vs2 br 2vs3 br 3vs4 and br 4 vs 5?

that would be a great start.

Buddy I almost always fight enemies of higher BR regardless of anything at all, and with tanks it’s a lot harder to do than fleshbags

Putting BR I by itself and that being the ONLY change. Give the newbies their “safe space” or whatever

your opinion < majority of players complaints.

as much i don’t care because i run with the least optimal gear my self ( volkssturm - british gear in br v ) this game won’t sustain it self with huge equipment gap. ( i mean, it will through the stagnated playerbase, but not getting any new ones any time soon )

because,
do you honestly think a new player will play this game and have a great time against kvs and what not in his first matches? sorry, past the 10 bots matches.

i’m sure he/she will love it.

or… how much do people enjoy unlucking stuff at br III that they won’t use because their their experience will become much worse.

you tell me.

but i can tell you, not everyone is insane as us.
( or enjoys it )

But if you dont make the MM more balanced, especially for the influx of new players, the population will just keep dwindling back to that anyway.

With steam launching, for the forseeable future, the main game is going to be up to BR 3 (for the new players it will take a long time to get xp and silver). So seperating 1 and 2 from 3, and 3 from 5 would make it much more appealing.

IMO

Since testing many of us having suggest a 3 queues minimum.

But if ±1BR combined with maps not tied to BR then it would be less queues? And we now dont have less popular campaigns we have less popular Factions and BR and to fill empty BR Enlisted can use bots. This is very vital request from comunity before Steam release, becouse game will just end up with tonns of negative revievs in weeks and probably will not gain needed amount of costant players to separate. May be devs can create big survey with options and by it get comunity votes to see if people prever wait or strugle in current BR

In all seriousness play the game as a new player, not as a dev account, but as an absolute new account without spending any cash (or assigning yourself assets). You also must remember you have no knowledge of the game and you have to think like a new player, which means no manipulation of the game mechanics.

Get people that aren’t “yes men” that will actually give you feedback from all view points.

The game population has been in serious decline for awhile now with failing retention of the older player base.

You need to work on the BR and Silver system, actually take more time than you do now to really get in and read the player base feedback. If you have ignored the numerous threads all clearly stating this, then this is an oversight on your end.

The vocal minority that cares*

Look, I’ve said repeatedly I can accept making BR I and isolated island as a newb haven. That’s it though. I love BR III and how it works right now. It’s nearly identical to the Enlisted I fell in love with. I don’t want that taken away from me

you hear that people? “the higher the br the more modern the equipment is” uh huh and people said i was wrong smh (cause i literally said something like this [very stupidly at the time i admit] but now after hearing it officially it feel good)

you know what no im wrong again dam my brain is too slow these day

Unfortunately, I don’t have statistics for the Chinese version of the game (it’s a different Enlisted version, not the same as ours), so I can’t assess whether it’s good or just available.

So you’re suggesting adding another queue. That is certainly one option, but it will undoubtedly worsen session population. I can suggest this option to the developers again, but I believe they have already considered it.

i mean, you can be tone deaf all you want, it won’t improve the situation for majority of people though.

That literally kills all appeal III has, which is fighting EVERYTHING

As a veteran, I would love to use my old br 1 vehicles. I miss them. My pz2. My bt7. My aa Soviet milk truck.

But you see, this war thunder conversion with br made that “impossible” (or rather just foolish) because there’s not enough queues, br is too compressed, yet we face many of those compressed tiers in battle, +/-2…

So since I’m not stupid (enough) and don’t want to hurt the team, I keep them in cold storage.

2 queues is not enough.

You say you don’t want to harm the game. Only 2 queues IS HARMFUL TO THE GAME.

I know you didn’t ask me, but I would suggest maybe having a hard soft rule when it comes to the BR, like only increase the interval if you haven’t found a game within one minute or so.
Another suggestion I have is have like a “Reserve” BR classification that can only face itself and BR1 and maybe BR2.

As a player, I actually like this idea. I would definitely make 1-2. You can try to convince me (as a player) otherwise, but I wrote the video script and the words “a bullet is a bullet” are mine. :slight_smile:

Oh no, the less popular faction will be full of bots instead of clueless casual players… What a difference…
