So far, my "BR 2 with join any team selected" experience, a silver gain buff suggestion and a expiration timer suggestion

I’d say 50% of the time, I get put on the German side, 20% Russia and US, and about 10% for Japan. Plus or minus 10 percent.

Only two real gripes about said matches is that maybe 20% are in that one deathmatch game mode where both sides just capture and recapture the same two points. But those matches are great for getting points though. The other gripe is silver gain, I started out with 500k, went down to ~380k because I bought up bunch of tanks and planes I had unlocked, now I sit at ~433k silver.

Oh, and I have seen pretty much every plane from all four factions, but here are some notes on the tanks I’ve seen at BR 2:

  1. Shermans, I have seen a couple, they mostly stick out in the Pacific but they aren’t nearly as prevalent as I thought they would be.

  2. Ho-Ni 1, probably because it takes a while to get to, it’s open top and slow? It’s good though at dispatching what it hits.

  3. Germany seems to have the most even distribution of tanks used in matches as I have seen all of them at least 2 times. Even though, I do see PZ 4 J’s once every 3 matches? Which is WAY more then the number of Shermans I have seen. I don’t really care much for them because they are easy to deal with compared to a Sherman. It’s almost a nerf to use the PZ 4 J over the other great BR 2 options.

  4. 0 and I mean 0, T34 OR IT’S VARIANTS OR EVEN A KV1. Even predominantly being on the German side at BR 2, I haven’t seen a single T-34 or KV1. Probably because it takes a while to grind to and you couldn’t get it before the merge besides in Stalingrad?

So given it took me roughly 23 days with premium account to earn ~153k silver, lets do some math.

A new player would need about:

  1. 3000(silver)x3(number of squads)x12(roughly how many troops you need to buy)=108k silver
  2. 500(silver)93(TNT mine)=13500 Silver (Actually not that bad)
  3. 500(silver)93(Grenade of some sort)=13500 Silver (Actually not that bad)
  4. plus whatever tank and 3 crew members they want to use ~10k(Tanks)+9k(3 extra crew)=19k Silver

So just to get to the bare minimum level of a loadout for one faction for BR 1-2 would require about:
154k silver. Which roughly took me with a premium account and with a good BR 2 loadout netting about 3k points per game without the use of any premium squads(I am grinding squad levels to use them at higher BR) 23 days. Give or take 4 days for my miscellaneous grinding.

Assuming about %50 win rate and converting that to whatever silver gain) from the 4th of December to the 27th playing an average of 5 matches a day. Oh, and factor in I’m about as casual of a gamer as it gets.

23 days… I suggest multiplying the base silver gain to 3 times what it is now for premium players and give whatever we have now for premium players silver earning and multiplying it by 1.5 to free players as seldom new player is going to look at 23(days)*4(factions)*2(what I assume non-premium silver earnings are)=184 days D:
Just to have the minimum viable loadout for all four factions. They don’t even have room to experiment with other weapons.

Oh, also I was a couple kills shy of getting the 150 gold from the event that I though lasted longer… Rip me. So it would be nice to have an expiration timer right up front that counts down on all events?

Thanks for reading.

Also I wish they would make every soldier a perfect soldier and get rid of the RNG
or one the solutions that I stated here would be good to implant

Also it would be awesome if we see a global upgrade point

yeah no joke.

those things are more rare than Vaquitas in the alctual world lol.

saw one t34 in my own team the other day on snipergrad, and that was a bout it since the merge.
stz varient too in a br 2 game.
but beside that, nothing.

so far, only 4 shermans in br 2 games across 40 games )

for the rest, as noted above, pretty much the same thoughts and experience.

still baffled that the bonus for joining all teams is not here though.

but then again, just like the equipment selector for customs… or any improvements really, to customs.

Originally I was just going to mention how BR two was where it was at in the mess room, then I got sidetracked with silver gain… And lost event rewards…

Was thinking about something similar, after being back 14 days and 140 ish games under belt.

i never grind RU either, so don’t know the maps, had 1 game, medics not even researched,
but after this next event with assault dudes for Ussr, will have a few high BR V line up, and can grind backwards. hehe

One explanation about T34 and KV1 rare appearance in match, I guess putting single BR3 shite you are very likely to meet the BR5, so they are just bad for that BR and people just stick with BR2… same for sherman except I do see them in Tunisia
