The map preferences is CRAZY idea.
If you want game balance, use the BR like Warthunder.
If you want game “historical accuracy”, then you should assign map preferences with real history.
It’s time to face reality, Enlisted not a “historical accuracy” game.
M2 carbine/STG-45M/AS-44/other “Wunderwaffe” never participated in World War II.
Panzerfaust/Volkssturmgewehr/PPS-43 never participated battle of Moscow.
If you really want “historical accuracy”, remove it.
If not, give us BR like like Warthunder.

eh, we’re kinda too far " deep ".
i suppose war thunder grind tree it is then.
at least it is somewhat balanced.
heck, i’d argue they should use the tiers as matchmaker ( since it’s somewhat more balanced than this map system ). because HA has died along time ago anyway.
plus, you can play all maps with the soft rule.

I think the system is good,
BUT…Most of the gear doesn’t have appropriate preferences yet. Most of them have too wider range
IMO

If one takes the “historically accurate” map preference, it would be absolutely foolish to exclude PPD34/38 and PPSh-41 from Moscow.
Sending VG1-5, PPS-43 and Panzerfaust to Moscow, Tunisia and Normandy is also stupid, it’s like fking COD.
But the preference for “historical accuracy” can never be balanced. If you want balance, BR must be 100% better than map preference.

Your opinion is irrelevant.

BR…map preference. They aren’t much different.
Its very similar. M T S N B is not really any different from BR 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 (the difference being maps are attached to it)
the gear just needs to be distributed as such.

I thought the whole point of a BR/map system was to make it fairer for new players and experienced players and put people with same level of gear against each other. This current system does not achieve that.
It can work but it does need a lot of optimizing. There needs to be more flexibility for individual weapons from each faction applying to different tiers.
I’d have preferred a BR type system and let us pick our own preferred maps.
At present it lumps too many weapons into the same brackets leaving you with little choice of unit loadout or maps you can play which I really don’t like.

that is what I think. the system we have now does not do either ha or balanced. The solution I came up is we have a br mode focus on pvp and a ha mode which focus on killing ai

You are asking a dubious balance between HA and BR, which is impossible.
We should have a PVE mode a long time ago.

Not really, if anything im suggesting power level based on map order. Which is same principle as BR rating
Even warthunder has maps locked/unlocked by BR

The only reason why the tiger II can’t appear in Moscow is because it’s not HA.
But if low BR weapon like VG2 or VG1-5 could appear in Moscow, that means HA already been destroyed.
There is no need to restrict weapons to specific maps anymore.

Id say because its too powerful, not because HA.
Because they arent that powerful.

So i just wasted my hard earned money, purchasing premium squads with the expectation that i would be able to use them throughout the various campaigns. At the very least within the campaign in which it was purchased. Ie) federov mg squad not being preferred on moscow. I understand the balancing act, but fool me once, shame on me…fool me twice…i just got duped out of money. Done…fun while it lasted.

I don’t get why they don’t just tie maps to weapon tier. Like, for example, the Russians could see Moscow maps at tiers I, II and III; Stalingrad maps at II, III and IV; and Berlin maps at III, IV and V.
I think Warthunder does something similar to this too, where you have lower tier’d maps and higher tier’d maps.

Just wait.
There’s too many bugs on map preference settings.
Also seems dev give up on BR

I see the attempt. The community is torn and wants both balance and historical accuracy. Both cannot be 100% achieved, and as a result those like myself who purchased premium squads for their camo and loadout, cannot even use them where initially intended, with the intended camo, with the initial gear. Maybe allow us to equip premium sqauds with different weapons to avoid being locked out of all maps expect a couple ie) berlin/normandy. I really enjoy this game and wish to continue… Dont mind paying for things i see as a value, but as it stands dont bother making any purchases, What you buy is subject to change…

My overall view of the game is that it should be semi historical. It should have integrity here and there, but I can let prototypes and stuff slide but I have standards
For example, I don’t want to see Panthers in Tunisia or Jumbos in Pacific because they weren’t there
And I don’t mind prototypes if they’re in the period closest to them, in way it’s like what if they got used. For example, the Soviet prototypes in Berlin. Or the Federov should only be in early Eastern Front

Remember, that this test Server is just that, a test, not the Final Product and still riddled with Bugs. Especially the Map preference System seems to be hit hard and all over the Place.
