Nothing much to say, Fix ur playerbase or Make Useful MM, Right now low br is absurdly unbalanced, and somehow MM makes every lobby 1 sided. Give Pc players to option to choose whatever they want to play with console players or not. Add some player limit to lobbies, make it minimum 5v5 real player etc… instead of making 2-3player vs 5-10. Also Add new UI thing for the start of the match so instead of waiting and looking empty screen 10-20 second to start the match, add Big RED Warning-Description to players and explain them to play obj and force them to try out engineers, most of them afraid to walk inside OBJ and most of them doesn’t even touch any engineer class(probably they dont even have it) and make engineer one of the first obtainable class instead of “joking around SNIPER”
Steam numbers are not accurate at all here. Most play via standalone launcher or entirely on console.
could be applied to forums as well.
majority of times you get 10v10, just people desert cause of reasons and then you have unequal teams. DF cant really help when people desert after match. if they enable late join, people will be more dissatisfied. also people all have different skill level and you have lots of players that are just worse than bots giving you illusion of empty matches
not realistic. if PC also get separate queue it will become bot land just like console only queue. not to mention it would also make crossplay on way worse.
that is concurrent players for only steam players.
well ~half of the people are on steam. only problem with that stat is that steam tracks launched game, not actually if the players are in battle.
Maybe I remember the wrong numbers, but didn’t you show different numbers which were much higher based on people who play at least once a week?
not for steam/concurrent playerbase. cant really check if PC player is on steam or not besides going on steamdb.
we have ~130k unique daily players, ~300k weekly players and about ~1.6 million players in last 3 months. need to go over numbers to see how many casuals we have.
No they don’t, vast majority of people play on PC and also large portion of them moved to Steam.
Why do PC players want the option not to play with console (just to make it fair or are the pc player SO afraid of the console terror they put into PC players 
)? If anything they should get rid of console players being able to not play with PC players. This is a multiple platform game and we might as well embrace it.
its simply just to make it fair, for both sides, sometimes matches end up with teams where they have 3-4 console players and every single time their scores are worser than others, I only saw 1 or 2 good console players and they were in Br V if I remember correctly, so yes we need option just like console guys has their own option, I dont wanna play with or against any console players
The thing that I can say about BR 1 when you start out you have no team utility. They give you bad vehicles and squads that are more for solo play then actual team play. It’s not until you put in a few hours which if you’ve had some bad experiences with matches in those few hours, you’ll bin the game and move on to the next one. Yes, I’d rather a new player have any of the later BR 1 squads then be locked into Sniper or Medic. Honestly even a new player that places a bad rally or some questionable fortifications on an objective is more useful than what we have.
I’d also like to have BR 1 locked into its own rank. It really sucks having a BR1 tank and seeing a Grant when your Japan, or Fully Armored Panzer when your Soviets. Even boots on the ground kind of sucks when your moving house to house across a field with your squad and part of your team gets shot up by a guy in a house with a small window just holding down the trigger of an MG.
Some would scream “Skill Issue” but to a new player this leads to a bad experience and a loss of a player to the community. You have to think that you don’t start off with MG’s except on tanks and depending on the tank (I’m looking at you Ha-Go) you can shoot the main gun and the MG at the same time until you get three bullets in, and it overheats from reasons. But to get an MG squad you have to put in time to unlock it. And hopefully with the time spent playing you get better and understand how to play the game. I do agree what would also help new players if a splash screen came up at the start of the match telling the player what to do and how to player the current mission type. Of course, after seeing this splash screen over 100 times, it will become redundant, but it will help when you’ve taken a break and come back like some people do.
Also these days most of the event teams has console players and they are soo behind compared to pc guys, because its hard to communicate with them, I even played with 1 console guy today he didnt know where to get weapons, I even mark the crates for him but he didnt care about them, he walked around map with his knife and we lost that match in hard mode. yes its just 1 example but there are more ppl like him. also don’t get me wrong Im not completly against them but its a fact no matter how good they are, any decent pc players will be more trustful
nah… it is usually cause console players mostly suck. for every good player on console you have 20 shit players. PC also has their own shit players, but they are rarer than shit console players.
Dude do you play much? Console players aren’t a bunch of morons. Yes PC players have some advantages but that doesn’t make console players bad. Again this is a TEAM BASED game where you need everyone playing a team role (rushing/defending the point, Building rallies/destroying enemy rallies, backing up ground units with tanks/planes). It does fcking matter what you play on, it’s how you play the game. The biggest fcking issue is people not playing this as it’s meant to be played; as a fcling team. I play basically a few hours everyday and play in multiple Discord servers with both PC and console players and as long as you play as a team you kick ass in the game 95% of the time. What we need is more educated and team oriented players. You shtting on one group shows a lot of ignorance and is bad for the game. We need DF to do more to help new and existing players get it through their heads that Team play always wins. Doesn’t matter if you get 100 kills or 5. As long as you’re playing as a good team mate you’ll win most of the time.
I agree with a lot of what you’re saying. If you play low BR you are naturally going to get worst players as they are new and ignore to how to play the game. That’s why when Ryzer was saying he met good Console players in BR5… well that makes sense as you have to naturally play more and get a feel for the game when you move into higher tiers. It’s BS to sh*t on console players in low BR as I could basically do the same about PC players. It’s a TEAM oriented game and if you play low BR you are more likely to run into people who don’t know the exact winning mechanics behind enlisted. If you want to run away from actually helping others learn the game and want to just play the “all mighty PC players” then Go make a MOD for only PC players and have fun there.
And yet I’m out here beating every last one of your rears into the dirt almost every match. Out performing almost every single pc-tard I find
I don’t care how many tryhard you beat, or how many matches you win against them as solo. I said before and Im saying again, if u guys have your own option to choose to play with pc guys, then we also deserve our own choice. I don’t care how death playerbase is, if someone cares about playerbase then they can go with “play with console” option, but I don’t like it, not when they in my team or not they in enemy team
first of all I don’t know if u read my words carefully but let me tell you this, Not everyone plays with DC Squads or Friends, Most of the playerbase is solo players, and game highly requires communication and just like I said before, its hard to communicate with console players in-game, I lost many matches and I won many close matches against teams where some of them real bots, its because my teams not building any raly, not bringing any apc, not even defending and joking around 70M away from obj, while enemy’s bots builds raly points close to 40+M obj. and thx to them they were able to rush rapidly, and nearly %60 of the low br matches are like this. there are matches where we lost against simply Pz HE spams because our vehicle slots was “joking around” instead of killing them whole game. so yes I know its all about “team work-building smt-and coordinate with vehicles etc…” so short of it, Game needs to force people to learning game and I don’t care how they do, add big colorful texts to their screen, or force them to training mode against bot matches or something else, and simply pc players deserves their own choice for playing with or against console guys, if you want to play with them or against them go ahead make your own choice, but don’t force others.
Too bad buddy. Deal with it
