Why so many conquest games in Moscow?

I started grinding the Moscow campaign again and it seem like there are a lot more conquest games than other gamemodes.
I played like 5 matches today and 4 of them were conquest, 3 of those on the same map (Avangard collective farm).
These games make the grind a bit more miserable bc they are much shorter than and invasion or confrontation so multipliers don’t have as much of an effect.
I can usually get 100-150 kills and 5000-15000 xp (without premium) in an invasion but only 50-70 kills and 1500-3000 xp on a conquest bc there just isn’t enough time to get any serious games.

Let’s say I get a good game with a 75% booster active:
Invasion: 15000 + 11250 = 26250 xp
Conquest: 3000 + 2250 = 5250 xp
The booster helps much more in longer games where you can get more kills.

Either make conquest less frequent or make them longer (maybe add more zones).
Getting the same maps and gamemodes over and over again also makes the game quite boring in addtition to ruining the booster.

just quit them.
Also got conquest as first game in moscow.
And obviously quit.

It seems very cyclical

The cycle being: booster? Ok → CONQUEST TIME.

yes, DF ruins the best campaign by injecting all the conquest BS maps. i recommend quitting them all at the start and playing only the good moscow maps, of which there are many.

There are 2 parts to this:

  1. If you are playing solo, you are far more likely to be put into Conquest mode.

  2. Almost nobody actually LIKES conquest, and most of those people will quit out of that game, leaving spots that the matchmaking attempts to fill with other players.

Honestly, there is only one or two maps that are OK for conquest. The one on Moscow with the church as point B is pretty decent, though I think it would be a lot better as an Invasion map instead.
That said I think they need to remove conquest as a whole. Perhaps adding in something a lot more strategic in its place.

Funnily enough i like the church point b conquest map.

But every other conquest game can geeeeeeertt ouuuuuuutt!

Why is Moscow horrible for Axis? I dont play russia and every single game i play is nothing but a stomping, omg its frustrating. ive givin up all together playing that terrible garbage map. Its like the absolute worst enlisted has to offer is put with you every game in moscow. No other map is like this. I have over 60% win rate in every single campaign i play but i have 23% win rate in moscow, utterly unplayable. It seems im the ONLY ONE who ever builds rallies or plays the OBJ. UGHHHH

Sorry to hear that. I’ve always enjoyed Moscow the most (could be time of day, region etc)

In general, most campaigns are severely imbalanced player base wise these days, But I have often had success and enjoyed Moscow as Germans 74% win (I have only played in Moscow a few times in the last 2 months as I have been busy grinding elsewhere)

If you are a low campaign level you may be struggling vs all the PPSH, federovs and T-50s, T34s. They are manageable with a bit of practice and know how, but in general the Russians are better equipped (by this I mean more forgiving) . Germans have great equipment and I prefer it in general, you just have to be a little more competent and precise.

also some of the maps are complete write offs. Assault maps are usually instant loss for attackers (player base has enough trouble taking 1 cap that cant be recaptured…you can forget about 2 caps that can be retaken)

and yes…the lack of rallys. happens everywhere
