well playerbase is not static. considering you have 6 campaigns it is reasonable for people to move campaigns or sides for grind.

If it’s OK on consoles but a problem on PC, it needs to be addressed

In the case of Pacific, its a problem on both sides. The problem though is that its opposite on both sides. I don’t think the solution is buffing one side or the other, that just leads to popularity on one side over the other, regardless of console or PC.

But in any case, big changes are coming soon.
Whatever you do, you will have to wait for the merge. The best thing is that the merge will fix everything (personally, I don’t think it will work that well…)

That’s something we can at least agree on. I think the devs need to pull players from the forum that have shown they are capable of discussing topics in a civil manner, but have different views (such as you and I), to help better establish balance overall, rather than just their select devs.

the first thing I think should be done to curb user desertion is not to punish users,

As I suggested in my other post:

Adjust "Ranking" Rewards and Penalties

Before someone immediately posts “there are more important things to worry about”, hear me out. I’ve been seeing a host of issues (from suggestions threads) that I think could be potentially solved through a rework of this system. For starters: grind seems too difficult for new players While they have definitely added more ways to acquire supplies, I think that supply rewards upon hitting a new rank should be added. Just an extra bonus according to how many levels beyond marshal that you g…

I think that the solution is having a light penalty that can easily countered by good gameplay for those that leave games now and then, but heavier penalties to those that frequently leave. Even then, it only effects the rank and therefore additional rewards. I think it would be a good step in the right direction.

it is reasonable for people to move campaigns or sides for grind.

Movement due to individual progress is random and should in general cancel out each other. If that become a trend, it is more likely to because adding of OP weapons or failed rebalancing caused unbalanced win percentage.

it is not exactly random. people usually choose grinding easier teams for easier grinding. so if there is some meta, there is high chance of that meta becoming even stronger with time. meta changes usually happen with addition of new fun (OP) weapons.
