Add an extra “elite” slot that will allow you to equip squad with BR higher by one, than your “normal” squads.
So if I’m BR 3, I can take one “elite” squad of BR4.
To deploy said squad, player will have to use his score like in titan rise event. (Note, players will spend spawn score, not exp. Though they are gained in the same way and ammount.)
Some ideas of how to prevent abuse (random order)
Make it limited to 1 slot only. So even with premium you won’t be able to cycle those elite squads.
Make those squads not earn spawn score. So player is forced to play normal squads to deploy “elite” ones
Add a modifier to gained score. (Personal favourite)
Example:
If I kill enemy soldier with my BR-1, I get 50% score
If I kill enemy soldier with my BR+0, I get 100% score
If I kill enemy soldier with my BR+1, I get 150% score
etc
Combination of 2 and 3 (ex aequo personal favourite) :
If I kill enemy soldier with my BR-1, I get 0% spawn score and 50% exp
If I kill enemy soldier with my BR+0, I get 100% score
If I kill enemy soldier with my BR+1, I get 150% score
etc
This way games will be a bit more spicy but still balanced.
Also it will give players a farier chance to fight in case they get uptiered.
As you wish.
So let’s say I’m BR3, I can take one “elite” BR4 squad.
My BR3 squads will consist of whatever devs decide to make a BR3 equipment in the upcoming big update (called also: the merge) and my BR4 squad will consist of whatever devs decide to make a BR4 equipment.
the idea sounds nice in paper. as you’d be able that way to tackle with uptiered matches.
but would become too much of an hussle and could be potentially harmful as it’s a double edge sword.
examples,
if you happen to be on a BR ( tier ) e, using mostly mps and what not, you’d potentially see uptier stuff against people of lower / the same br as you. all good here.
just like warthuner, people using br 4 while you’re in the br 3 will somewhat rekt you with no issue with their default equipment. and that’s what could potentially happen.
instead, they will wreck even more because they them selves own an " elite " except it’s of BR 5.
not sure if i’m making my self clear.
so… perhaps some restrictions would be needed to be put in place.
but… outside the squad composition it self, not sure what could be " touched " to adress or even tackle the system.
i thought the reason to have elite brs ( which… now that i think about it, only benefits more players that already unlocked the further brs and hence wants to play on low br as well as some new players wanting to use the next tiers while being somewhat safe and at the same time, familiraze him / her selves with the next weapons that has already been unlocked ) was to counter uptiers.
what’s your plan youngster?
ah. larping.
well… i’m sorry but the merge does not allow for that.
as… stgs will primarily uptier you enough to encounter those funny individual with 9 ment avs / 6 ppshes.
which… it is somewhat HA. but not really enjoyable.
