I am bored of leveling up later-stage squads

Mess Room

I was aware of “TIER”, or squad I/II long time ago.
At early days, this game only has 18~26 levels. So same type of squad only repeat 2 times. Infantry II for me was OK to grind again.

But now. 4 out of 5 campaign has reached >30 levels.
Many squads/roles have reached Tier 3.

What’s more not acceptable.
Later squad’s tech tree requires massive amount of XP to level ups.

Moscow’s Attacker III, level 1 itself required nearly 20k to level up!
Dont forget at LV1, you have NO Squad XP bonus. So XP is 1:1 to the campaign levels!!! Let alone only the XP you gained from this particular squad count! Leveling up a squad to LV10 itself equal to near a whole 180k campaign level. Dont forget the higher squad levels are, the more expensive each level cost.

Only some squads, especially tank squads (and engineer II), that attract me to level them up (also Tank squads itself are much easier to level up than many infantry squads)

For Rifleman, sniper, bomber, gunner, mortarman, rider, etc. Especially those squads has less important weapons (most of them dont have), why dont I just use tier 1 soldiers?

Especially I have left plenty of soldiers with lots of retraining point that I need 0 grind for a good perk.

Also,

the non sense more expensive price for higher tier soldiers…
Making Tier 1 soldiers more sensible to keep them.

These slight statistics from tier 1 to 3 wont effect game much at all… Also after concluding so many data, I am bored of those tweaks.

Squad icons? Tier logo? Who care. (Many of them even dont know the difference, only get confused by this)

Also I saw leaks of up to Tier 5 icon. Just insane.
Either player or dev is mad…

There’s LOTS OF interesting thing to do to break or improve this boring system. This is a mess room thread, so this is it.

Why I need to level up another MG squads? Just to feel the new player’s pain of using a incomplete squad?

Wo care of lv up them now, if they gonna to add new squad for a new weapon and veichle is more simply do this job wen the campaign end all her level

I find I have either bought better versions, gold vehicles or premiums which mean, some of the later levels I already have something better or gold vehicle equivalent… I use Grant and Valentine, why do I care about T50, ( which I already had), there are several instances where the unlock is not of interest to me as I have something better…

Yup, the grind for high tier squads is just too much.
Imo, it should be lowered. Maybe to the point of a rank 2 squad taking 1.25x as much xp as a rank 1 and a rank 3 1.5x as much as a rank 1.

Or at Least give them Space to equipp, so we could use T50, even when we bought Premium Squads

What I usually do is to equip a Tier 1 soldier to a squad to use the extra ammo pouch for example. In my experience this grands you more kills as you are not dependent of ammo crates.
I get your point though. It is really difficult and long to level some high end squads or lets say at least it is no fun. Personally the XP grind of the squads goes much faster once you have an engineer in the squad to build a decent rally point.
The hardest level ups for me personally are mortars, flamethrowers and snipers. I simply dont play them or have no use for them.
Yet I upgraded all campaigns and nearly all squads. Would be nice to have some squad only boosters independent of matches but moreover for, lets say, 5 hours or so.
