Proof That BR’s are Meaningless




Both of these are Normandy, otherwise known as BR5 hard geolock map

Battle Ratings mean nothing. In one match I get just sub triple digits, the other I get over triple digits. One I have an absolute garbage team, the other I have a solid team that got crap done. You’ll never guess which one is which

Second battle clapped you hard, damn.
Getting a good match is a huge gamble nowdays, even as Germany you can get unlucky and face clan.

Got unlucky today, Stalingrad match but Germany got uptiered hard. BR3 guys fighting Federov, Flamethrower and AP mine spam.

Groups seriously need to start fighting other groups because they ruin the fun of all the casuals.

yes this old system was much more balanced and so much better

Me? Not really. Still most kills in the match

My team? Shoot yeah. Just proof that BR’s mean literally nothing in this game if I can take a full BR5 loadout and barely come out on top, but then take nothing but BR3 stuff and run a whole BR5 match

You ain’t pulling crap on nobody

Those are near full bot lobbies, heck I’m sure if I can see all of the first one I’m certain it IS a full bot lobby

Yeah nah, take that crap elsewhere

Which was rather frequent in previous system.
So your strawman arguments here doesnt exactly work.

Even before Merge some players could quite happily wreck anything and everything with a bolt action and detpack vs end campaign gear spam. Thats nothing new.

But if you are gonna go for a BR system to balance like for like, thats the expectation.

At the moment its about the same minus a few items.

Havent had a single bot game since merge, games are much more pleasent and there aint roflstomps 99/100 times as in previous system.

So regardless of all of its flaws this BR system has its by far better than what we had.

there certainly are more players in a match. Ive still had bot games though.

the ones where you wipe the team in the first minute and they leave.

Makes a massive differency, regardless theres some of those poor br2 players every now and then.
One of those things id rather see fixed sooner than later with this BR system, locking 1-2 entirely.

Might have had few, probably that one steamroll game I had earlier mixed with low br enemies.
Still, massive progress compared to old system.

As far as containing like for like. I think 3 MM queues would be best. early, mid and late

Talking about effectiveness vs effectiveness (never mind individual player skill)

Br 2 is a pretty good spot. all its tools work on BR 3s (except a few double standards)

Br 1 can compete with BR 2 …out matched vs BR 3

But as I said, anyone who knows what they are doing will find a way regardless.

Depends how its implemented, if its a moscow all over again then no thanks, rather have balance.

Biggest problem with br2 - 3 is the vehicles which have night & day differency

Which is why I consider balance as the most important factor as id say majority are just casual players doing 1-2 games every now and then.
Highly doubt they would enjoy the pz3 - t34 / kv games, as seen already.

Emphasizing tanks due to fact that once the tanks are unopposed those really can be the game changers as well as they are quite easy to use for farming.
Especiatly if theres nothing in opposite team to fight against it.

I agree with that. Whats the point of going to BR if not for balance.

The MERGE has it’s ups, yes

The BR SYSTEM is what I have beef with

But it DOESN’T MATTER

This is a fleshbag game, not an armor exclusive game. 9mm and .50 BMG kill all the same. It isn’t like War Thunder where the difference of 1 BR can mean able to kill, completely unable to kill, and complete domination

There are SO MANY WAYS to kill a tank as a nontank player! My overall favorite method? BOMBS

So anally worried about enemy armor? Bring a plane. Otherwise what’s the point about whining so darn much?
