Fantastic
Now do the same for high BRs

I’d like to see either BRIII or BRV as individual, hard-locked BRs.
I probably prefer BRIII as its own hardlocked rank. Let BRIV-V (and BRI-II) fight among themselves.

They should either lock each BR, or just introduce ±1 MM for every BR. (With added rule that BR1 and BR5 can get into pure BR1 and pure BR5 matches retrospectively)
And stop introducing some pseudo soft rules.
Locking BR3 and letting BR1 to fight with BR2 (same for BR4/5) will eventually lead up to only one thing. BRs 1 and 4 will always going to be downtiered. And thus they will always be more unpopular in comparison to BR2 and BR5.

well either way i get to flex my lewis/mg13 drum squad so im good
So, when we gonna have that gun on the picture?
As the news says, it should be impossible to play BR I vs BR III now, unless you are using something that is BR II or higher. Please check the BR it mentions in the top-middle of the screen, above the clickable nations to switch between, before clicking “Start”, since sometimes the BRs on the squads can bug out (known issue) and show the wrong BR.
If you are seriously still getting BR I vs BR III, then make a bug report for us at the link below, since this should not be possible, and send us a link to the battle replay of the battle is happened in.

for beginners: yes, this will be more balanced. so the get less frustrating and won’t leave because they end as free farm against BR III
do it in the upcoming weeks / months for the rest of the BR’s, too and the game will be more balanced on every BR.

Simply making it far less likely to be placed in a +2 uptier for br1 players would have been a much better decision. Why on earth would you simply remove the possibility of it occurring entirely.
This game continues its trend toward the boring hum drum of war thunders’ systems.
It is NOT necessary for every nation to have complete parity with each other, in all weapon types and vehicle types. It is NOT necessary that EVERY match is extremely balanced in player BR. Maps need NOT be perfectly designed towards balanced halves and approaches to cap points. These inequalities among players and game systems help make the game enjoyable in the long run.

Ofc I checked them, infact most of the time I play low br, usually br2… when I saw the news I decided to play br 1 and I make sure every soldier has br 1 equipment for allies and soviets, and I played few match(probably 4-6) as soviets had 1 pure br 1 match rest of them was against mg34 users, pz3N and Apc users, as Allies I had match against grenade launchers and mp40 users, its %100 buggy
also there was a another match where my teammates had t28 and apcs…
Hehe not what i meant. Was refering to its mm situation and that “we have it how we want it”.
I like br IV gear, i just dont like that its mostly in BR V. -+0 for BRV would be awesome

those are BR 2 and you will see them in BR1 MM
these are BR3
cant check your replay cause of recent limitations, but you are either playing BR 2 or it is bug if you are playing BR 1 and getting mg34 and grenade launchers.
Maybe you’re just sarcastic, but -0 sounds as much fun as 00.
Just because the devs
- fail to add rules to prevent overusing current meta weapons so everyone has either tons of Fedorovs or AP mines or seven zillion parachuters
- fail to create a matchmaker that considers equipment and skill of current players
so instead they force historically crazy limits on us, it may make balanced games, just like perfect red tomatoes. Tasteless.
My soldiers had %100 br1 equipment, Like I said, I played “few” matches, more than once. During my first match my teammate had t28 while our enemies was pure br1, then another match I had pure br1 v br1, after that I played in Pz3N and Apc Matches, I also fought against mg34 users, after the mg34 match I give up and returned to br2
Btw at first I thought something was wrong and restarted the game, I double checked my soldier setups but everything was br1…
this is BR2 so normal for new MM. you wont be getting ±0 MM.
from OP:
if you had BR1 setup, then this is the bug and you should report it on Community Bug Reporting System
well, I thought “hard rule” means “less br2” but it seems I understand it wrong, but other than that, I should probably report it because Mg34 and Launcher guys was weird, thx
I still don’t understand why are we focused purely on BR. I’m pretty sure a headshot from a Mosin is as bad as it goes, so why can’t I fight against other weapons of the same era? The balance would be that a squad will not have 4 LMGs but only one, not all Fedorovs but only one per team as it was not a really usual WW2 weapon, if there is a four-stack of pros then the opposing teams’ AI gets terminator genes to balance etc.
We’re spending too much time on the wrong things, the matchmaker should learn the overall perfomance of the players playing their squads, not just enforce BRs and screw up all the timelines in the process. There were uneven clashes in WW2, and there were unbalanced opposing forces with very mismatched weapons, the only important thing is that whatever I play, I should not be facing 3-4 heavy losses in a row or stupidly slow, boring matches…
The focus is on BR because they wont do what you are talking about.
Class limits and weapon/equipment limits as a way of balance has been requested for ages, and has been shut down
BR is the only recourse at the moment

In terms of vehicles - it should be extremely balanced. You could try to face some IS-2 and King tigers with BR IV tanks many-many times in a row and you will get the point
