Why would it be br 1-2?

Only those who wanted to minmax top dog teams wanted this. Thankfully it’s going towards +/-1. No br is safe! No minmaxing.

What abuse? I use bolt rifles, I use puma and pz3j not even Pz3N, and Every match I end up with Kv1s T34s or against unbalanced teams

Because from what I remember they said matchmaking will take longer and game tries to find enough player for specific Br, but if there is not enough player then it will be +1 or -1, but every single time I click on SEARCH, I find matches less than 10 second, and end up against br3 players

… And where is the issue? You play br2, you get matched as supposed, with br +/-1. So you can meet br3 ppl who are br+1.

Everything is fine?

The entire german faction seems weak af in high BR (4-5)
So maybe the low BRs are also sparse

U didn’t understand me, Im expecting to wait 1 minute or 2 minute because I want to play with Br2 people, I don’t even care about br1. but every single time game finds me a match less than 10 sec and throws me against Br3 guys, it wasnt like this at 1.day, I enjoyed Br2 because it was balanced and game didn’t put me against br3, but last 2 days always with br3, I wanna wait till game makes sure there is not enough player

I believe so, Before Br2 setup, I played BRV in Rzhev and we end up with 3v10 matches(not include bots)

I end in a br 5 game with japs using only br 2 stuff ^^

make it hard rule and you got a deal! :stuck_out_tongue:

Sadly for you, nobody promised that, and most people do not want that.

You can make a GREAT suggestion post and convince darkflow to apply ±0 BR matchmaker. Then your dream will come true that BR2 players only fight BR2 players.

Did I read wrong? Didn’t they said Matchmaking may take longer because of searching for enough people for specific Br but if it can’t find it will be +1 or -1 ?

I don’t need to make a GREAT suggestion post for that, my first day after the “Anouncment” was pretty chill, game didn’t put me against kv1 and T34 guys, even if I lost or win it was against br1 or br2. But last 2 days constantly same just like before the “Anouncments” also during first day matchmaking showed me my matches will be Br1-Br2 and now it shows Br1-Br3 which means soft rule is not working, it worked first day.

If you want to play BR 1-2 only then you need BR 1 squads as I have observed when playing. If you have any BR 2 weapons at all, then you can be stuck in a BR 1-3 battle. I have squads that are all ready for BR1 and when it loads it says BR 1-2 Battle, and when I use level 2 squads it says BR 1-3, and when I load my BR3 squads it says BR 3-5.

if this is the case its enough for me. my issue was, after the first day, game turned back to old matchmaking and I thought “soft rule” is not working anymore or useless, but just like u said if I put Br1 squads and I can play without Br3 soviet abusers then its okay

If your not opposed to spending a little money, you can buy two allied SMG squads from the bottom left of the research tree which are BR1. One uses the Sten Mark 3 which is a decent gun, and the other uses the M55 Reising which is a knock off of the M50 in the research tree. I had bought a while back an M3 US Reinforcement squad off the Enlisted website, It was about $19 US. Plus you can build the Medic squad in the research tree to give you 4 SMG level 1 squads. Just an idea, but over the past couple years I ended up buying them all and use them if I want to battle in Level 1-2.

No not unique BR.

Instead of the classic BR (1-3 or 3-5 ) they created new BR +/- 1 : BR 1-2, 2-3, 3-4, 4-5

So if you have your squads in BR 2 you can encounter a match with BR 1-2 or BR 2-3 .
If you have BR 3, it’s BR 2-3 or 3-4

But if the matchmaking don’t find enough players so the old system is chosen (BR 1-3 or 3-5)

Yeah this is a misread of the new bracket system.

Simplified matchmaker tries to match you into a +/-1 bracket and only in 1-2mins if that fails you get a old match system of 2 brackets.

Based on ur reporting ur matching correctly since BR3 is becoming very popular now

I tried br1 setup now, and I had Pure Br1vBr1 it was a great, thank you for information
