Improving the matchmaking for low Battle Rating

VG1-5 needs to be in BR4-5. That is all. Tired of seeing a late-war weapon in early-war matches

then what do you propose for it buff then? making it do g43 damage?

why would it get buffed? it doesn’t belong in early war. it is what it is.

because it would be shit in br4 with no buff?

Then it would be useless. Historical accuracy should only be prioritized in customization because it doesnt affect gameplay. Weapons should be rated based on their effectiveness instead of ha. Otherwise we need to lower avs 36, ppd 40 fedorov, kv 2, avt 40, johnson m1941 and 50 round tommy because they were mainly used early war. We would also have to put panzer 4j, vg 2, mp3008, pps 43, pps 42, m4a2, m4a3 105, panzerfaust 60, m3 smg, puma and many others in higher tiers for the same sake. After that the devs would need to remove all the prototypes like t20, auto hei and after that all the weapons that werent used like panzer 3b, type 5 rocket launcher, ho-i, springfield, lanchester, madsen, m30 drilling etc.

The devs should focus on historical authenticity like adding changing camo depending the map for tanks and not making stupid skins like samurai armour

that’s the problem with this game and community right there.
“who cares if it wasn’t used in WW2 except for a few months, because damage numbers

gambling addicts and children have killed this game, RIP enlisted it was fun

“useless” lol it kills just as easily at BR2 as it would at BR5, you seal clubbers just don’t want to lose your edge in low BR.

That’s literally fine with me, I play WW2 games for WW2 stuff, which seems quite rare around here

And I guess the Panzer III B or the Jumbo were historical in their campaigns.

Alright. In that case lets put kar 98k in br 5 because it can kill as reliably as t20. After that we can move hs 123 in br 5 too because it can oneshot is 2 so it is clearly br 5 material

Wtf are you talking about? I dont even play br 3

the fact that it’s fine with you doesnt mean that everyone else is cool with it. You do realize that if we make everything ha it will ruin the balance. Ussr will sreamroll germany in low br with their heavy tanks and automatic spam, america will fuck japan with shermans, semi autos and brownings while japs only got handful of bolties and shitty ha-gos.

I guess you just wanna steamroll people with worse equipment than you

This post was flagged by the community and is temporarily hidden.

According to history the Jumbo was never deployed in Normandy.

Cool…
And?

Then remove it? Why do you keep bringing this up like a “gotcha”?

Wild statement with no evidence to back it up. No need to start being hostile. If you cant have an argument without throwing insults left and right as soon as someone disagrees then maybe spend less time in the forums.

You really think they would just like that remove stuff people grinded (and possibly paid) for? We have already seen that the devs dont give a crap for ha in the main game. Custom games are the solution for this problem. Only if the devs would care enough to add equipment selector and more support for modders

I have ALWAYS maintained that BR should be more related to Year and Theatre than “power numbers”. I do apologize for being rude, this Halloween event has got me cranky.

I dont know… probably because they never did that insane move nobody ever considered to ask for.

I accept your apology. It seems that we both have different views regarding the subject so maybe it is just better for us to agree to disagree

Wow you just described The Perfect Enlisted.

Or The Perfect WW2 Game, that’s still to be created one day.

Completely disagree on the base concept, still. With a correct implementation the battle rating should not be connected to the time period. If I bring in a tazer that will not be BR6 just because it’s modern.

One of current Enlisted’s biggest bugs, implemented deliberately. Also if I bring in one single good weapon for my 3-4 squads, it feels strange to go from BR1 to BR5 immediately, yet if I bring in an MG-build capable engineer or soldiers that heal in 2 seconds, that does not really matter?

Debates going around accepting the current broken implementation of BR concept look stupid for me. We should push toward building a system where the game knows the weapon time periods again, and maybe a system where squad BR is not tied just to a weapon.

Perhaps if you could set up for multiple time periods, multiple BRs and multiple outfits for the same squads, and for a given match, knowing the game mode, faction and BR, you could select from the fitting presets per squad (everything that’s not newer and not higher BR, so VG would fit in BR2 and BR5 Berlin but not in BR2 or BR5 Moscow) . With current UI it would be a horrible experience though, and probably 90% of the playerbase would not care anyway.
