Complete waste of 500% booster

I join a BR 3 Soviet game. It took me almost two minutes to get a game, which when loading errored and then asked me if I wanted to reconnect, when I actually hadn’t connected yet. My game starts and the game is already proceeding, conquest, to which the enemy had already taken control of TWO out of three cap points and the Soviets had already lost about 10% of their tickets :roll_eyes:. Fine, I’m just here for the silver so I choose one of my four planes, a bomber. I start diving to drop my bombs and the game suddenly starts stuttering. I manage to drop the bombs and pull up just in time to hit some trees causing the plane to crash killing two of my four crew. THEN, to pour salt in the wound my remaining two pilots die because the plane crash landed in the gray zone. Why the f–k it didn’t just move me to a spot inside the gray zone like usual, but what ever. So I spawn with my next squad, and as soon as I spawn, all but one of my troops are instantly vaporized by artillery… :zipper_mouth_face: WTF !!! What a complete waste of my 500% booster.


He is my sole suriviver of the artillary vaporization. If not for the booster, I would have deserted at that point. :expressionless:

Mate I really hate conquest. Especially LARGE.
20 minutes running simulator for a low score.
I have spend all my dislikes on conquest maps.
Often my first battle of the day is…conquest.
And what happens when I activate 200% boosters…can you guess…?

My friendly advice is: NEVER use maximum boosters in one battle: always spread them out (I do 200% max)

Had I not had the 500% boosters in place, I’d have deserted the moment my squad was vaporized. I knew it wasn’t gonna be a good match at that point. My side sucked, it was the shortest Conquest match I can remember, and even starting late, I still finished fourth, which wasn’t bad considering I only used one infantry squad (the one vaporized) and the rest of the game I rode out in my planes. :joy: I think I only gained 3,900 in silver from it with the boosters.

if i have the boost on this match it would have been awesome for me ngl

The terrible part about selective memory is we always remember the crap matches like this. I get these types of matches when I need 1 point for the next rank or have tasks that I can;t complete. I got burned when the GE Force bug happened I lost 100’s of exp boosters and tons of rank points + penalty. I do not know if breaking it up across more than one battle is much different because you can hit a massive win and make 12k+. That disconnect bug is annoying I agree.

I feel your pain. Out of like the 7 or so games I had 500% boosters from opening all my boxes not a single one ended up being a win no matter how hard I tried to carry. Lost out on so much silver it’s not even funny :sob:
