Vain battle rating hope

Suggestions
1

I know, it’s been asked and discussed countless times.

But I’ll do it again:

My hope for battle rating queues +/-1 (at least) isn’t dead.

Battle rating 3, contains in my opinion, the funniest things, for all factions. Core ww2 stuff. I love that br.

But I dislike pummeling br1. And br 5 is just weird, I want no part of it.

Please consider adding more queues. The chinese game client reportedly already has the perfect formula which is br +/-0. Don’t come tell me global version cannot do the same due to a lack of playerbase.

It’s what your community wants, devs gentlemen:

  • a more separated battle rating. More queues.

Every patch that goes by maintaining the same 2 queues I lose more and more interest… :yawning_face:

Number 1 change at this point!

Still waiting for the other half of the merge…6 months ago

i cant see a world where BR4 and BR5 should queue against each other. The assault rifles and battle rifles of BR5 are a league of their own.

The ideal setup for BR ranks should go, 1-2 / 3-4 / 5

The ideal setup is +/-0. Like with chinese client.

Next best is +/-1 to avoid powercreep brackets.

We dont have enough players for 5 queues for each server region (15 total), but going from two queues (br1-3, 3-5) to three queues seems very possible if Darkflow would stop screwing around and just get the Steam release done

It’s just false. There’s enough.

+/-0 is perfection.
+/-1 is next as this way no BR would be irrelevant, nor permanent undertier or overtier.

Most players already cannot tell difference between casuals and bots. As there basically isn’t any real difference.

So lack of players isn’t good argument. Even now, matches suffers from serious imbalance which is based on certain factions being more popular than other.

I would rather play ±0 MM matches with 5 bots per team than be playing matches with current MM with teams made of 6-7 casuals anyway.

*with lots of bots

well i wouldnt like this cause you would get 10 players in one faction vs 5 human and 5 bots in another (with variance changing depending on BR or even hour).

Why not turn BR1 into PVE for beginners, and then make BR2-BR3 and BR4-BR5?

That way you would have 2 matching queues + BR1 functioning as a training BR with some reduced silver gain and no enemy players, and only few allied players.

It would be the same problem, just as bad. You’d only have two relevant br anymore: 3 and 5 (death of 2 and 4) and br 1 is a no go because reduced silvers? I’m de facto against anything that either reduce player income or bring repair costs in game.

you do realize the first 5 battles on any account are PVE only matches with no other players right?

15

No, I do not realise that.

When did that happen, thats cool

at least 1 year, when i first started playing in 2023 i remember i steamrolled the allies on d-day by sitting in a bunker and shooting people with the mounted mg42 the entire time, now it makes a lot of sense they were all bots
