You get the post wrong. I am not talking about my score or chances but rather about the circumstamces the whole team had to face.
I complain about the big gap between BR2 and BR3. They have way more options, flamethrowers (that worked well when attacking a closed room), PPShitbox with broken stats and semis that are far superior. I dont talk about the tanks because this is an endless story.
…or hip fired. These guns are great when storming a tidy room. We played on Stalingrad btw and 4/5 objektives had been inside a house.
Yes, great gun and I love it. I personally use other smg’s like the event MP35 and they handle well - but facing the PPShitbox it is outgunned in every way.
Oh sure there is. SVT38 and SVT40. Try them and you fall in love.
When those soab’s are sniping the players that try to reach the point to prevent the cap one by one it is indeed funny.
I am not talking about MY skill or abilities, but the whole team. I hope you will face the KV1 under the same circumstamces I had: far away, angled, hidden behind a house and you only have one GB39 and some dynamite. Good luck, I mamaged to get to the back of the tank. The only things that got destroyed are the tracks and the transmission.
And WHY did they dessert? I guess because of the shit show.
I mean you didn’t use any APC squads in that match, you didn’t spawn an APC for your team.
It’s everyone’s job on a team to build rally points, why are you making it everyone else’s job? In the time it took you to place all those antipersonnel mines at the start of the match you could’ve easily built a rally point for your team.
The Soviet team’s 3rd and 4th player had only BR2 equipment and they still got more kills and points than most of your team. You had only BR2 equipment and you got the most points out of anyone in the match. It’s not about the BR, most of your team just sucked. You got unlucky and got a team full of console players of which half of them deserted the match.
30 minute match with 160 tickets left is NOT quick, no matter how you put it
I have. They seem to have the second most visual recoil after the Gewehr’s. Plus, for whatever reason hooded front posts screw with me. Makes it hard for me to put the actual front sight on the enemy and I end up outlining them. Much prefer the Garand for its sight (and of course other biased reasons) but that’s just me
Shoot em. You got rifles. I’ve won plenty of sniper fights with irons and with a plethora of guns. Bolt actions, SMG’s, LMG’s, semi’s. I’ve used a lot of guns and nailed a guy at long range trying to snipe me. Lol
Then it literally isn’t a BR issue, but an incompetent team issue. Simple as
like i said, it is not problem of BR2 vs BR3. it is problem of getting low skilled players matched against high skilled ones. what you want is SBMM not ±0 BR MM.
I just deserted from a level two German match, but I was on the German side. We were getting butt stomped by the Russians, but this was on my team mates as not a one of them would come anywhere close to defending the cap point we were “SUPPOSED TO BE DEFENDING”, and I was tired of getting all my squads wasted at the cap point with no support. So, I jumped into my plane only to be more aggravation because Dark Force’s plane bombs couldn’t penetrate a roof made of paper towels, you can’t put a fooking bomb through a roof of any type, so I finally just said to fook it. Bad team mates, fooked up bomb damage calculations, it just made for a bad game.
I didn’t used to desert a lot, but am not losing any sleep over it anymore when a match is unplayable.
As far as the BR nonsense, I would love to see a 0/0, but I don’t complain about the 1/1, but I do think that being bumped up two BR levels is complete bullshit, but I only have to deal with that if I play allies or Japs level three, so I don’t, or I just bail if I choose Level three Allies and get level five japs.
No matter how shit the team is or how much busy the situation, build a really point first and foremost. Bring in APC too, park it somewhere safe and conceal, not too far or too close to the objective. Why APC? I’ve already built a rally point, wasn’t that enough? More free score and as a back up in case no one really build any rally point other than you. If both checked, then you can do whatever you desire.
But yeah, BRII and BRIII have quite a gap of unbalance. And maybe the luck and timezone, that will met with teammates that aren’t that good lol.
In many other cases the first thing I do is build a rally point. This match I focused on the objective - no idea if it was wrong or right. I think I spawned right in the objective and it seemed wrong to go all the way back to build one because I had a bad feeling about the team. So I think my thoughts were “I should rather defend”. In this situation I hope that my team mates build rallies and they did. I am very sure I used my APC too…
No idea what really happened, it was one of many matches. But that is not the point, I know that more rallies and/or one more decent team mate could have changed the outcome.
My point is - as you mentioned - the gap between BR2 and BR3 that is even more hardcore when you face some good players.
…and you are right. There was three people with BR3 stuff, but that already was enough to go crazy. The kill feed was full of it so it seemed that these weapons were everywhere.
Maybe the problem lies in the algorithm or something?
It has nothing to do with the original performance of the equipment
What you should do is report the equipment problem to the official
Dynamite and TNT need to be thrown from above instead of from the side
Since you have the ability to throw explosives to the side, it shouldn’t be difficult to throw them at a higher angle above the tank?
Since you like N3 so much, please bear its shortcomings
Just like those players who use the Crusader take the risk of being penetrated by the front of the anti-tank rifle
DP is totally incomparable to MG34
Soviet submachine guns are really excellent
But this is only one of the few advantages of the faction
So when I play German defense I use some tricks to fight against PPS
For example, you can hold the impact grenade in your hand and wait for the enemy to approach, or use TNT to ambush the invader, or hide in a blind spot to attack.
Will they use the same argument against you when you’re using level 2 gear against level 1 players?
Equipment is never a problem
Player ability is what matters
So after the merger, I only played at level 3 most of the time
Because I only need planes, submachine guns, engineers and level 3 anti-tank weapons to get a relatively good ranking or make due contributions in most environments.
I place the dynamite on the engine deck behind the turret in most cases and it works. Sometimes I come close enough so I can throw it under the tank. It works, but only very rarely when facing a KV1.
For me it is the best support tank that can take a punch a deal damage even against Shermans and T-34s. I have no clue why the HEAT does not pen the KV1, there were two HEAT variants with 80mm and 100mm pen. I know about the shortcomings, but the positive abilities are bigger in my opinion.
I/we only had BR2 equipment.
There are way more advantages. I will not complain about them because every nation has advantages, but at BR3 they are very present.
They actually can use the same arguments, sometimes I even feel bad facing new players with stock equipment.
I already calmed down after the match. Yesterday me and my mate won against some BR3 guys again but I wonder why the BR-gap was next to not noticeble. Maybe it was just the insane PPSh rape that made me bonkers for some hours.
Again a nice example of how overpowered BR3 is compared to BR2. Don’t tell me to build rallies etc., when just few somewhat decent russian BR3 people are in a match and totally dominate.
I know that the match was absolute close - but the fact that they won because of the better gear is just frustrating.
Best scene(s):
The KV-1
The DP-27 guy that sprayed my whole squad down
The grenade launcher spam. “Hello, I am magic Ivan and dont need to aim. Want to see a magic trick? Poof, RIP”
The PPShitbox41 squad with body armor
Did I already mention the body armor?
The KV-1… oh I already mentioned? Worth a 2nd time.
Oh, we got SVT-38 too while the Armaguerra is broken as hell.
BR3 should have been it’s own independent tier. So they don’t get uptiered into my BR4-5 games where they’re stuck using below average kit and they don’t get downtiered into my BR2 games where they are being a complete thorn in the backside in terms of the sheer amount of spam they unleash.
