Is there any particular reason I haven’t been able to win one game in Squads playing the Red Army for the past 2 days?

German player count is much larger > less Soviet players might result in a team not being filled up > this results in the remaining spots being filled by bots > more bots = less combat power = less wins.
This is literally the 10th thread about this exact topic, with the same result every time.
I think a moderator should lock this before it goes down into arguments yet again
Is simple.
You must use voice chat to deliver hardbass. 100% win rate. Sometimes it play loud enough for German team to hear, so they flee map.
Even players with voice turned off can hear. Feature of Dagor Engine.
Installed sound system in T-26 last match

What I’m concerned about is that the game might gotten itself stuck in a negative feedback loop right now. That there have been so few Soviet players that the Soviet win ratio collapsed to 0% and the last remaining players are getting fed up with consistently losing. I always pick the currently weaker side since no-effort wins aren’t fun either. I’ve been quite patient and haven’t given up but even my patience has just run out.
This is a very unfortunate development. Hope there will be something done about it. I want this to be an actual game again.

Been like that for a while now.
Like I’ve said before, this always happens in any game where 2 teams always matchmake against eachother and no third group.
Dust 514’s faction warfare was the same way, where Gallente only fought the Caldari and always won, while the Minmatar only fought the Amarr, and one of them always won though I can’t remember which. Which is funny because I was a Minmatar main and played FW all the time.
The devs either need to force queueing of both teams, and either unify progression to make up for it, or just give it to German mains with no lube and keep progression as-is.

Will make german mains leave matches when they dont get germany, until they get fed up about it and leave.
as opposed to making Soviet mains leave the game?

Those are already gone. There is no need to make the German mains we got rn leave as well, as then we might as well just call it and discontinue the game before OBT even happens.
German mains will kill the game if given the opportunity, so tossing out the biggest tryhards who would quit is the best chance the game has.
Those who would quit are those who are actively making the game worse. Do a wipe first and minimize the damage, and only the most toxic will quit.

While we’re at it, there could be a CO-OP mode added for those who enjoy the current German game play. So they get their niche and it still has value in testing for bugs and leaves the Devs tons of room for experimentation, it not being limited by the need for balancing.
I do agree that they should force players to play both for the duration of the CBT by whatever means possible to maintain fair-play so as to keep people from quitting.
Maybe enforce playing both sides alternately to disable quitting the game and switching sides.
With nobody playing the Soviets, you’re effectively running half a beta-test.

You cant prevent people from pessing alt+F4. Do you guys want the game to die even faster than it already does?
You’re comparing a certain death by keeping things the way they are now, to a possibility of success by altering matchmaking.
Causing toxic players to quit will improve the game if anything.

I wouldnt call myself toxic, but I would sure as hell quit if I was forced to play a nation I have 0 interest in playing.
Back to the main point, there is no real difference between the two factions, playstyle or otherwise.
They get a couple of different weapons which don’t have a major impact on gameplay.

I don’t see much difference too. It’s close to a bf4 nations.

The MP is useful at most ranges where the PPD is not. Their playstyles are a bit different in that respect.

haha i no read
reason why lose as glorious mother rosia is because of
- entire most of t eam is actual bots, not players
1.2. normally not issue but in game the all bot squads very very bad, even compared to typical fps player - anyone in game has to have buy premium pack mostly
- german premium pack and tanks are better than soviet ones most of time

Indeed. There is no big difference at all. Except you don’t need to lie down with MG-13 or sharpshooting MP. So even their play style is pretty equal
