BR decompression

This is a suggestion to work on the BR system. The BR system needs re-worked a bit and spread out a bit more where also certian BR do not meet in battle.

BR 1 & 2 should be together and separate from BR 3+.
BR 3 & 4 should be together and seperate from BR 5.
BR 5 should be a standalone BR, with the possibility of BR 6 being added in the future where BR 5 and BR 6 are together.

Comment +1 if you agree. Thank you!

No, we could have just 3 BRs instead at that point. There would be no reason to differentiating BR1 from BR2 etc.

So you want players with the better weapons and equipment to completely demolish the other team with absolutely no chance…

NO!

Wut?

If we have BR1+2 etc. just merge it into one BR. There is no point in this artificial split.

You misunderstand. If BR 1 or BR 2 can only match with BR 1 or BR 2.

If BR 3 or BR 4 you can only match with BR 3 or BR 4.

BR 5 would be a standalone BR where only BR 5 meets BR 5.

I still believe ±1BR MM and eventually ±0BR MM should be goals.

The proposed solution would only shift the problems to other BRs.

BR1, BR2 and BR4 suffers in current Enlisted. BR1 and BR3 would suffer under the proposed solution.

No, you missed.
What is rhe difference between BR3 and BR4? None.
So merge BR3 and BR4 together.

Tanks, BR3 tanks aren’t good enough to effectively fight BR4 tanks. Just try comparing Panzer IV F2 with Panther G.

No, you misunderstand.

Having 6 BR that get matched :" BR1 and BR2, BR3 and BR4, and BR5 and BR6" → would be exactly the same as if we change the BR system into only 3 total BRs.

BR1 = early war gear
BR2 = mid war gear
BR3 = end war gear

But considering a MM with
BR1-2
BR2-3,4
BR3,4-5
Might just still be an improvement over what we currently have. Not ideal but you still have my support even though this will render BR3 tanks useless aside from M4A3 105 sherman and 120 naval gun.

So? Both BR3 and BR4 tanks face only BR3 tanks and BR4 tanks. So there is no difference.

For the love of everything do NOT start bringing crap like “decompression” into Enlisted. Geez that’s even worse than just saying “BR bad fix it!” Because that’s straight out of the War Thunder playerbase

I take anything just to escape this BR6 madness.

With proper balancing and more equipment all five tiers could be playable. While I firmly believe BR 1 and 2 should play together, 3 and 4, then 5 we’re still going to need some equipment adjustments mainly more equipment. But the matchmaking system as a whole is flawed. No matter which way you split it it’s never going to work. The only way to truly solve this is tier for tier, and that will come with more player count. We’re battling a system of lesser evils, severely crippled uphill battles or long que times. Something like this can only be addressed after it launches on steam. Then the devs can have proper discussions with the community on how they’re going about the new BR system.

Even if it is ±0, you will still lose continuously because the allocation system gives you a bunch of monkeys.

I believe that at level 1, we can fight against level 3 by relying on equipment and IQ.
Unless you and your teammates don’t have anyone to prepare the necessary equipment and aircraft
Also likes to hold a sniper rifle or walk on the main road

BR 1: (Old BR 1 and 2)
BR 2: (Old BR 3 and 4)
BR 3: (Old BR 5 … maybe some OP BR 4 moved up)

Move the F2 to the end of BR 2 then.

good point.

to those demanding a fusion of BRs in the same queue: its mathematical nonsense. if the game finally manages to grow, we will be able to split into even more queues and removing BR distinctions now would just force everyone to add and adapt to them (with tons of stupid discussion everywhere) again.

having a fine structure like the 5 BRs worked out is a lot of work and obv needs to be safed, not removed.
Also multiple mechanics like progression and unlocks are tied to BRs, so for that reason alone removing them would mess up the game and introduce bugs.

It’s a simple fix.
BR 1-2
BR 3-4
BR 5

It’s that simple.
Obviously some things will need to shift around but this is the only logical system that works.
It keeps new players safe, it makes BR 4 not redundant and it gives BR 5 sweats their own playground.
