It’s “preferences”, not “hard rule”.
It’s an example of how one could choose their preferences to be. If you like Japan BR5, you can acrivate Japan BR5.
Personally, I never play Japan BR 3-4 / 4-5 even now.
Every. Player. Can. Have. Different. Preferences.
If you wanted, you could activate all maps for all BRs for your own preferences.
Personally, I never play Japan BR 3-4 / 4-5 even now, but others are free to enjoy whatever they like.
Such a system already exists. It’s called the “Soft Historicity Rule.” But it works like a shit because there aren’t enough players online to make it work. You can test it out on the test servers, because God forbid you’ll encounter even one living person in battle there.
(Yes, when I wrote this, I didn’t have time to read the topic beyond the title.)
I NEED IT.
I’m tired of getting pacific maps when I got my Normandy squads equipped
This game really needs such system but knowing devs, this is too much work for them and I believe they won’t even think about “possibility” of implementing such a thing
I was gonna make another suggestion about allowing players to have several loadouts within the same faction and BR for different campaigns:
E.g. you start the game as Axis BR3 and you have several BR3 presets
No thanks… tiger H1 wasn’t deployed into moscow.
You see how this logic is rather lame now when used against you?
Huh?
I’m saying rename Moscow into Western Russia (1941-1944), and only then open it to BR4.
You’re saying “Tiger wasn’t in Moscow”.
How do these statements correlate?
Poor reading comprehension and overreaction.
It’s okay, we all have our shortcomings. You’ll get better! I believe in you.
Oh
If what you’re saying is not a strict rule but rather a custom that has developed within a small circle
Whatever. Anyway, there’s the option to customize. Just go with it.
If we expect developers to develop this kind of optional mode, it seems we’ll have to wait a long time before it becomes available.
Even if this model actually arrives, you will receive 18 AI assistants for every 7 minutes.
It’s better to customize it instead.
Oh man, I wish this were an actual thing.
Also Western Russia I like that. I was one of the few that I mentioned that’s how it felt when they did that testing a while ago. When they allowed BR IV-V into ‘Moscow’. In my mind it wasn’t Battle of Moscow anymore. It was just ‘Eastern Front’ madness and I enjoyed the hell out of it during that testing week. It was simply suspension of disbelief for a gaming moment. And that’s not to disrespect the actual Battle of Moscow, but it’s the fact, as you say, there’s not an instantly recognizable landmark. It’s just a very beautiful winter scenery, with mud, wooden houses, and the occasional thick mist. It can always be expanded and while playing Big Action I’ve learned all those cool spots that have been neglected in the vanilla version of the game. Where some badass battles can take place, I know it.
And that’s the way you play it. Ok two separate as one for people who want a refined search and one for normal people. No but seriously is you want so many options you should not hinder everyone else. You should be limited to only people with the same desires and not use everyone else as fillers for you choices
Who is hindering everyone and how?
Simple by creating more qs it slows everyone’s selection, preferential qs have to be filled before more qs are created for everyone else. It’s join any faction in reverse. You are diluting the pool of available players. It would be the same effect as allowing pc players to disable cross play. So simply put as much as I am opposed to this such players should not interfere with the rest of the playerbasel
Please read again:
This would not create any more queues or dilute the playerbase at all.
Ok and what is that time limit, you’re right if it says caps at 5 minutes then bumps them into all battles of the same br and faction fine, it’s not a matter of absolutes but by degrees. If that player is sidelined for 10 minutes then it becomes an issue.
That would be up for the devs to decide.
I’d guess whatever is the average wait time now + a little margin, so 3-5 minutes maybe.
It could also always encourage players to lax their preferences with a message like “to reduce wait time, choose more preferred maps/BRs”.
Ok that’s fire so we would have a fast lane a slow lane and a normal lane. Sorry about this I just don’t want the game to suffer by forcing longer wait times on everyone, enlisted should be enjoyable for everyone. 
I’m repeating again – this would not increase wait times.
Especially if the “majority” keeps their preferences “all green”.
If I “dislike” low BR Berlin but your low BR Berlin MM urgently needs players, I’d still be sent there
(Only I’d of course quit instantly, but that’s another issue)
You missed a post I am agreeing with you
