Low BR is becoming toxic and trash

I’m slowly realizing that BR l-lll is becoming HOME for veteran players, which ends up making the game a TRASH for newbies and extremely disappointing and frustrating.
Sometimes I stop by to see how the newbies are doing, and I end up getting MASSACRED by players whose nicknames alone reveal they’re VETERANS who like to ABUSE newbies.
I don’t care, because I don’t spend my time playing with newbies, nor do I like to ABUSE them!
I think it’s wrong for veterans to have this freedom to drop down from BR and frustrate the newbies’ experience, just as I think it’s wrong for newbies to get into the TOP BR because of a single V weapon, and be massacred there too.
Everything should have its limits and a specific place!
I recently tested it, playing with all four nations in BR l-lll, and I lost them all…
And in all of them, I found four to five veterans on the enemy team. How do you know they’re veterans?
Simple. They consistently kill over 100 enemies per match, and they’re always positioned in very strategic locations and use only the top-of-the-line planes of the BRs. This shows that they’re already experienced players and are only there to fulfill BP objectives or just mess with the newbies.
Leave the NEWBIES alone. They need to learn the game in a balanced way, not by being ABUSED and losing most of the matches!
This turns the game, which is already garbage, into TOXIC for newbies.
We’re already veterans and we put up with this absurd game, but they won’t have that mentality…

I don’t understand why these veterans are so obsessed with going to low BR and destroying the rookies’ experience. What do you gain from this?
Do you feel good about beating rookies?
Seriously? Then this just shows how WEAK YOU ARE and how you can’t handle playing BR 1V-V matches. You’re a loser, and to feel good, you need to go up to the rookies and massacre them…

So as a veteran I’m not allowed to use my low-BR premium squads or play in low BR matches? Yeah, nah, not happening.

It’s actually helpful for newer players to play alongside veterans because a good, vocal veteran will help those players learn how to actually play the game and not just consider it as another CoD or BF.

If you don’t like playing lower BRs, then don’t, it’s pretty simple.

I understand your point of view, mate, but many don’t even go to HELP the newbies, they go to massacre them and I’ve been allies with veterans like that, and they just went up alone and did things alone, they didn’t cooperate with the team itself!
Most of them don’t go to help, but to complete BP duties or to win some prize from the events that take place, nothing more than that!

Event objectives like “earn 20,000 points”—when this type of objective occurs, you see a lot of veteran in lower BRs completing them, because they’re obviously easier to kill and accumulate points!
I understand that this will never change, but unfortunately, that’s how things are in this game…
I’ve already accepted it, hahaha. I just expressed my disgust at those who do this out of spite. But that’s okay…

Sure, that happens, and it saddens me to see name-decorated players not contributing to the match, but they are still entitled to play their matches as they see fit. I enjoy helping other players, and playing lower BRs is a great way for me to scratch that itch.

Yes, I also like helping them. After all, I was a newbie once, and thanks to the experience I gained in games like COD, BF, and even ARMA, I managed to break through that bubble and grow quickly in the game!
But, they really have their freedom, and they can do whatever they want, right?

Game has no skill based matchmaking system.
It’s not players fault that they want to use different kinds of combat equipment to have a variety.

You cant justify to take low BR bolt-action weapons to the end game battles since it would be detrimental to your team if we are looking from this point of view.

Personally I don’t mind but some people could, since they may need to struggle little bit more to gain victories.

I think it’s just random.

Veterans are of course more often in br 5 matches (you can’t really be in those if you didn’t unlock br5/4 stuff yourself or your squad friend wants to troll you).

However, in br1, everyone has access to the same weapons or almost. Newcomers will have bolt actions like Veterans… and bolties don’t discriminate.

It’s a misconception to think that because one is new, that he cannot aim and shoot…

I mean low BR is more fun, so you cant stop vets going to play there, however vets do on the flip side not to be meta cringebags, run funnier and more diverse lineups instead of just cycling uragan assaulter squads all with body armour.

Solution: Increase desertion penalty by 200000%.

I mean thats not true, there is a multitude of reasons as to why vets have a massive material/equipment advantage even in BR1.

But yeah this is true, even when I was new, I was topping leaderboards, Id even go out of my way to hunt the meta fucks cycling assaulter squads.

I said

What I mean is that in br1, vet or not, bread and butter are bolt actions. Even starter free bolties can be dangerous.

The only difference are mostly perks, more diversified squads, and max star weapons.

The only issue would be br2 players downtiered to br1.

Hopefully one day, br in matchmaker will be +/-0…

Aye one day, but till then as you said, the hoards of BR2 will supress BR1, unless you have the lebel squad because idk why, but I swear that squad just does better for me, even if its possibly a worse rifle than what others are using.

The Lebel is amazing, if only thanks to it’s big “magazine”.

It requires longer ADS to aim true compared to other bolties, but with 10 rounds you can make a killing.

I really like riflemen premiums. Not strong but fun. With my Japanese flag rifle guys, I often just charge head first with them.

Sometimes teammates follow suit so we end up winning :stuck_out_tongue:

Oh 100% Id agree, if it could load stripper clips, reloading 10 rounds 1 by 1 is bit challenging at times, especially with how I play. I mean melee works well for it at least.

Im forever jealous whenever I see them, such a good looking squad. Not in this game, but in other games some of the best moments Ive ever had were via banzai charges, I remember in foxhole, me and 5 friends bayonet charged across a massive stretch of bridge, managed to retake the entire bridge and racked up about 20 melee kills between us. Shame I cant find a video of it now, it was good, pretty funny when the enemies began to actually panic, still no clue how it worked but it did.

God it would be so good if I could order my squad to bayonet charge.

No veteran players are playing at low BR to “abuse newbies” what kind of delusion victimhood complex is that?

Veteran players play low BR’s primarily so they can play Moscow and Tunisia which are locked out of BR IV and V. The only way to play Moscow and Tunisia maps are playing BR I-III. Playing high BR you get way too much Normandy which has the worst maps.

Low BRs also allow for more historical loadouts and less prototype weapons and vehicles. Some people prefer slower paced games with bolt actions instead of everyone using full auto rifles on everyone. If you want to run British or Italian accurate squads, they mostly have low BR weapons and vehicles.

If there are so many veterans playing at low BRs then they are playing against other veterans playing at low BRs so the matches should balance themselves with a mix of veteran and new players on both sides.

Its the 2020s, whining that you are being oppressed and victimized does not give you a higher status or authority any more.

Tier III always been home to vets. I remember before the BR patch, tier 3 would see 5 often.

Seems legit because I wouldn’t waste my time spamming chat asking for rally.
