Japan - Defeated 90% of Matches, so it seems :(

So, I understand that we can’t win all the time, I really do. But, I am sure I have just played 12 straight losses for Japan. And, commonly, Japan seems to lose way too often. Kinda gets depressing if it is all the time.

Can you please look at the stats - I understand there are variables, especially quality of player skills.
Further to the above as often seen, the skill levels are way higher for the opposing team … like all 10 of 12 all Generals or whatever, so verse our team of 1 senior & the rest of us ‘plebs’, this, to me, seems waaay unbalanced on average.

As a relative newcomer I have invested heavily in Japan, I am now at the point of considering dumping Japan completely, or the game itself - though, I love the concept and would hate to do so.

The other big kicker, to me at least, is the absolute domination where a single plane continuously fires rocket salvos all game … and then add rocket artillery salvos on top. It is just too much, Japan has no way of winning when we get this happening.

So in summary, can you please look at the stats as to how many game each country wins/loses on averages and try balance this for a better game for all?

Thanks.

Play low BR Japan. That alone means no P-47, and in low BR Japan makes somewhat fun, while High BR and BR3 Japan only make “fun” if you own an IJA plane, the laser rifle, and maybe the wood tank.

Id suggest not to. Japan has by far easiest TT grind aka most newcomer friendly.
But if you want to take a breather, go for murrica as everyones stacking that due to not at all OP event gun & T20

Known issue for years now.

Also this, Japan has relatively good BR2 equipment, did majority of my Japan grind in there.

Play Japan level 1-3. I play allies level 1-3 and lately I have been about 50/50 fighting the Japs.

game has problem with faction stacking. so you will see month or two domination of germans, then it switches to USA domination, then it switches to japan domination, then back to US domination.

btw this is sequence of faction stacking for last 7-8 months. whenever something new comes out in tech tree or there is some event with interesting weapons faction balance goes whack.

Even low tier Japan is getting whooped on, 20+ matches and only a single win. Everyone must be playing on the allies right now.

American main in their hypocrisy are overusing most op unlocks to destroy their foes and then get surprised that nobody wants to play as Japan or Germany.

DF seems to agree with them since they don’t seem to care much for the balance they just want to add new FOMO power creeping equipment into the game for USA and Soviets.

It’s like playing CS2 where everyone want to play as CT because AK47 is much better than M4. Even steam En(re)listed launch won’t help you at high BR since newbies will only fill the low BR lobbies, yeah BR5 is doomed forever if DF won’t do something quick.

Are you sure that you are safe from American explosive spammers at low BR? Don’t be naive. I can also bring P51 or SBD-3 too. I could bring Grant instead of Crusader for much stronger HE spam but i need something more precise against tanks and Crusader feels better in that regard.

I just got my first win in hard while last night and it was a hard carry tbh.

Try and get an engineer squad with the AA unlock ASAP, you can really melt a low tier plane before it drops its load.

Really annoys me cuz Grant and Crusader shouldn’t be in the Pacific and when I bring a Grant. I never get destroyed in Tank v Tank

Japan really needs ki 43 iii at br 2. So that those US rocket spams can be countered.

I dont know. At least you need to aim with bombs and the M8 launchers.

But do you need to aim with the P38G? :thinking:

Well, so far I never saw them wiping out half of the map, but mostly just my squad. Maybe their users are also just stupid.
They are just “annoying” because they start from air and there is no low BR IJA plane. It should be BR3 or at least move down one of the IJA planes.

Thanks, well that is good to at least provide some further insight that it is not just me seeing this!

The low BR Japanese camp will be only slightly better, but it is still difficult.
Because they will encounter BR3 enemies. The BR3 American army has Sherman tanks and BARs, which is a fatal blow to the low BR Japanese.
And the BR3 Japanese do not have tanks that can match the Sherman, not to mention that the BR3 Japanese will be thrown into the BR5 matchmaking room.

BR3 players like any other BR players mostly suck. problem was never slightly better equipment, but loads of experienced players in one faction and newbies and casuals in other. that is why veterans with BR2 equipment can still dominate whole teams of BR3 players.
