The idea of of shrinking max player squad capacity from 4 is asinine. Trios don’t cut it for challenging campaigns to play as like Tunisia axis, Normandy axis and potentially Berlin allies. 4 is the perfect number to have 2 infantry players and 2 vehicle and have the 2 vehicle experts crash their planes/tanks if obj is being taken to help the other half their team. Or have 3 infantry and 1 vehicle expert. You can mix and match perfectly with 4 players. And for those that complain about getting bulldozed by skilled 4 player squads, then get over it, or find some friends who are high level to squad up with. Bc trust me, 3 isn’t cutting it when you always get paired up against teams of 9 marshals who spam phosphorus, flamethrowers and high level tanks, etc. it’s not rocket science, you can always find friends online by putting up lfg posts. Don’t make experiences players like myself and my other friends I now run with face the repercussion of some noobs complaining about full squads. So gaijin I and other high level players ask just to keep the squad caps at 4.
You are thinking about a future problem with the perspective of the current game not taking into consideration the other changes brought by the merge
Tell me, where does it say anything about shrinking the player squad size. All it says is that the community has asked for small player squad sizes and in response the devs may change how matchmaking works.
Mainly my comment was aimed towards the video of how Quadra interpreted the changes and he basically said he would support squad shrinkage and complained about full squads of high levels steamrolling other players and from what I understand, Quadra has a big supporting in the enlisted community those fans of his will also support squad shrinkage.
Ok I just rewatched it and he said he supported groups on groups but nothing about squad shrinkage. So I do apologize. I just misunderstood
But still. I’m not retracting my statement on squad shrinkage, so I still don’t want gaijin to even think about squad size shrinkage
Please refer to my previous post…
I for one would like to say to the developers that I think they are missing out on an opportunity by being so close-minded about squad size.
While it is true that solo players that don’t get along with other players have been crying about playing against groups, there are also groups of players (even a number of large clubs) that hate dealing with solo players and would much rather have the larger groups. While this CAN be achieved through custom games, there is far less exposure and variance of players in the custom games.
I would say they need to introduce a main mode that is accessible ONLY for squads of 4-10 players. Allow large coordinated battles and against random other teams!
Meanwhile, the solo players get to continue playing the current lobbies and aren’t bothered by the large groups.
This way the devs don’t alienate either group of players.
