Combat notes: Battle Rating

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…

I thought about the same. I guess it’s the easiest way even though not ideal.

i mean…

unless you’re claiming that the majority of the chinese playerbase is lying, i don’t know what to say.

but i’m sure one of your colleagues ( between 120+ or how many you guys actually are ) sure can know about that.

is perhaps the lead gamer designer against it or something?

( no, i’m not trying to lashing out at anyone )

just confused about the state of things.

yes.

that is what everyone ( or to the very leas, the majority is saying ) as it would improve and make it more skill based rather than having to face huge discrepeancies of equipment caused by said unbalancements of the br.

i thought the merge was supposed to balance things out.

not make them roughly similar as pre merge campaign system.

( i mean, still. merge is good, but could be better is what i’m saying )

It really works like that! :slight_smile: Although I don’t remember the exact time after which matchmaking expands.

No I prefer doming StG nerds with the BAR actually
But, that’s not all I want to do. I want historical matchups of Kar98k’s vs Garand’s. I want to destroy Pz IV’s and bully Tiger II’s. I want to kill Puma’s Pz II’s indiscriminately. And I can do ALL OF THIS IN BR III! Without changing anything on my soldiers and randomly!

I get BR1-3 matches after a few seconds of waiting so this time can’t be long.

And I agree. No one else does though

Equipp one BR5 weapon to get uptiered as desired and move on with life already.

With what faction?
The only faction that’s that quick is Germany, on average it feels like all the others take minutes to get into a match.

you see, there’s a huge difference in wanting one thing that you can artificially put your self in such position, and totally another having to find your self in said position willingly, or not.

whether WE like it, doesn’t mean everyone else does.

Is it prohibited by the rules to quote the original video?

As in “the weapons appear in time periods where they were actually used”

Or illegal to mention MP 3008 in Tunisia and AS-44 in Stalingrad?

Or it’s a no-no to post edited game screenshots? :face_with_hand_over_mouth:

You really think new players and br 1 should be subject to that, just so BR 3 can fight everything?

Thats what steam is aiming for… New br 1 players

But then how do I get Garand vs Kar98k?
