With less grind, you will have exacly the same playerbase.
Since
A: you don’t queue with a pre made team
B there is no comunication
C its a casual game where the users don’t have nothing to loose, when loosing a match besides a xp that they can get in the Next batle.
D : There is no ranking system, so bad players will be bad players.
E : I personally couldn’t care less if I loose a match since I ill get the xp eventually, I play for the win, for my own xp. I couldn’t care less about my teamates. If I loose I loose. Lol all I care is what I can do to have the best experience by myself. How many points I can capture, how much can I defend alone, how many tanks I can destroy etc.
It’s rare I finish a game at second place. Rare. But on the other hand, since I have nothing to loose, I rather quit some matches and move on. Again… Nothing, nothing to loose or prove to anyone.
If the team is present, good. If isn’t, I ill try alone. I get Alot of satisfaction when I win a match Prety much alone, but If I loose it. I wont blame my team. I was part of it too.
But after all, for ex. if I loose with 7k base score. I will still win more xp than the guy that own against me with a 3k score. So it’s all good for me.
People loose their minds over teamates they can’t control.
It’s a fking casual game, casual. Nothing to loose besides some xp numbers.
You need another batle to rank? Either you enjoy the game for the gameplay, or, if you play only for the grind, this isn’t the right game for you.
There is more in the game besides grind and wins. Alot more.
People just care about xp, teamates etc. And forget about what matters on this casual game.
Game will get old fast for people that only care about xp.
If you, as many of us, do amazing in-game, loosing it’s only a small percentage of xp you loose on the overall scale.
