Questions about the incoming changes

So how we supposed to choose what campaign we want to play and maps if all of them are mixed together?
How will we know which squads to choose, to choose the campaigns the game will put us in?
Like if I want to focus on Tunisia gameplay and battles, how will I be able to do that? Do I have to choose 4 squads that are from the Tunisia campaign to make that happen? Or will it still put me in there if I choose 4 squads from the Normandy campaign? This is all very confusing right now, like if I have 2 squads from Normandy and 2 from Tunisia, what will the game do?

I might be wrong about this, but the Americans will be a nation on its own? but the other allies will disappear? Shouldn’t it all be put under allies and not Americans?

Is the progress carrying over or not? I have seen conflicting information, will my weapons that are currently unlocked for example at level 35 be unlocked at the equivalent level so I can still upgrade them? Or should I upgrade them all now because it will drop me back levels and won’t be able to upgrade them until I level up all over again?

Same question for squad upgrades, if I already upgraded my squad completely, does that remain? or whatever amount of unlocks I have with the squads remain? Or do you have to unlock them again, and then level them from scratch all over again?

BR level = map/campaign

Squad dont matter

You cant main a single map anymore

You need read carefully this time the past devblog

Is carried no wipe

They keep squad lineup and upgrade

So if you level 35, you can’t play maps that are only for level 20 and under? So we are being blocked out of maps because of our levels? How we supposed to keep our levels down if we want to play the other maps if we prefer them?

What? so if we playing with 4 Normandy squads, the game could put us in Japan or Tunisia? That doesn’t make sense to me

Well it’s campaign, not map, but this seems really bad, I like to control what campaign to play, it is what makes this game special, that is really sad if we can’t do that anymore, especially if they put normandy units playing in other areas where they don’t belong, that is really bad…

Isn’t that the game blogs

Thanks for the other answers

Its BR no level, ok as simply example each faction in the game have 6 BR level

  • BR level 1 to 3 are moscow,tunisia and pacific map
  • BR level 4 is stalingrad
  • BR level 5 to 6 are normandy and berlin

Each BR level and faction are tied to 1 or more map so for go in stalingrad you need select the german and equip at least 1 equipment with the BR level 4 indipendentaly if is a tank/plane or a gun

Old squad (the one who we have) dont matter anymore,they are simply used for play with our soldier they have a description for lore but there is 0 difference between them outiside the lore, after the merge your squad change automatically their uniform for fit the map

Its not, people abuse this by mainly playing a single map or campaign exploiting the map or abusing of good equipment only for make worse both allied and enemy experience, like hill tiger on D-DAY, or tunisia and pacifc glitcher

We get 3 progression rework dev blog already and 1 mess room topic opened by keofox

Thanks for this, yeh I might have missed this information from a blog somewhere

So if I want to play tunisia, I have to choose tunisia squads and weapons by looking at the BR on the squad and weapons and gear types?

But if I have Normandy Squads with BR 3 they will still play in tunisia also, though it won’t be just tunisia, I could get pacific also if playing as USA (should be allies)…but if I play as germans at BR3 I could get tunisia or moscow?

Will there be an option if I am BR2 and want to play on BR4 maps? Or even BR5 & 6?

Yes, I do like this to give new players better balance fights, I like that. But shouldn’t there be another section for BR5-6 that want to play on the BR1-3-4 maps without the low BR players? Just not have the low BR in there, unless they choose to be in there, and allow them to earn at increased rate of xp? Make it a choice. But anyway, I understand now how this will work, thanks

Only BR ,as i said squad dont matter, US pacifc squad in tunisia change their uniform to desert one, same stalingrad german, outiside their description they are identical

The BR decide what map you can play and the matchmaking select it randomly

As announced You get presets like war thunder for fast swap squad/equipment/BR

No because HA people complained that tiger2 in moscow was ahistorical so dev simply BR locked map, but you can still play in moscow or tunisia with endgame equipment wen a mixed BR battle happen but is a rare case

So you could have a Level 3 or 4 Squad playing with weapons or gear or vehicles of BR1 in BR1 matches

And you could have level 1 Squad playing with BR5-6 weapons, gear or vehicles in BR5-6 matches

Will BR1 be queued seperately from BR2 & BR3? Or all queued together?

I don’t remember warthunder too well, but I hated the queue system/matchmaking in that game, like really hate it, was so unbalanced and poorly made, absolutely hate that game due to how bad that matchmaking is, really hope this doesn’t become like that

No, because no one forbids a player to use any weapon he wants.

more like, yes.

if OP has end tier equipment, he won’t be putted with other people that are of early BR.
for example, if op is using berlin equipment, he will not join or even see anyone from moscow / stalingrad let alone playing on those low levels map. as those are much at an earlier BR.

you will be able to do so with customs though. but not in the base matchmaker.

Yes, but squad tier dont technically exist anymore after the merge, is written in a past devblog , anyway yes only equipment BR matter

Idk but if is like warthunder the BR matchmaking work like this:

  • BR 1 can play aganaist himself and BR2
  • BR 2 can play aganaist himself and BR 1 BR 3
    And so on…

Warthunder matchmaking was assimetrical and even if developers give BR to the veichle, was clearly that some nation have batter veichle so that game is not fair…

Enlisted instead is noob friendly all equipment is nerfed or buffed for assure balance so i dont think you need worry about this :slightly_smiling_face:

thanks for the answers @gastanofrizzi

Wonder how your BR will work, is it as soon as you put one single item of BR4 that will push you into BR4 matches? Or do you have to put a certain amount of BR4 items before it qualifies you as BR4?

like if I only have one single BR4 weapon, and all my other weapons are from BR2, will that immediately put me into BR4?

Yep is already confirmed that is like this

Be careful, that was never confirmed. They haven’t said what the weapon tier system is going to look like.

No, squads and uniforms will change appropriately depending on the map you get.

Not really, the squad system, pacing and the variability are what makes the game unique. Not being able to choose the map is a very small casualty that is necessary to fix the games much bigger problems, the campaign system being one of them.

The devs did say they will experiment with map selection but only after the current changes prove to be successful.

Everything you’ve unlocked or done will be saved or you will be directly and fairly compensated.

I’m not sure what you’re asking since the Americans are already a nation on their own. If you’re talking about the British, they will be a sub faction within the American tech tree for the time being.

This I think is dumb, the Commonwealth forces and Italy have more than enough weaponry to fill a tech tree. But oh well.

This is a good point. After the merge, people will no longer be able to exploit Pacific Axis or Tunisia Allies to farm kills.

When I re-read this how it is supposed to work, I can see that low BR will never play Berlin or Normandy, until they have ranked up, wow bummer Normandy fans!

we are not. they will be random. in one of those big topics, some players (including me) put forward suggestion that MM creates maps/modes according to wishes of players after it has paired 20 players according to BR. so far answer was not positive to this suggestion, but maybe we need separate topic for it

like i said before it will be random. there is soft HA so if you equip tunisia appropriate equipment there will be higher chance of you ending in tunisia, but also you can end up on other battlefields. regarding squads, idk how they are planning to implement this. they said we keep all squads, but that could mean only cosmetically and/or soldier wise. we could get generic squads like assaulter 1, 2, 3 and they will be paired by their counterparts depending on what campaign you end up playing. overall they have not clarified much about this.

nations are coming and everyone will eventually get their own tech tree. i guess they put it under americans cause of future MM mechanics (cause americans fought in pacific, europe and africa). when they put brits they will fight only in europe and africa.

yes

not entirely clear, but everything should be transferred over. and they said they will rework squads, so who knows what will happen to it

they did? when? when i read those topics they said it was not possible cause of complications to MM and then few other players (including me) said it was possible if you create map after MM. i have not seen anything discussed after that.

It was in the Q&A, they had a question if map selection will be allowed and that was the response.

new one? old one?

The new one. They’ve only done one formal Q&A about the new changes so far.
