Dividong the Battle Match BR system

I disagree. I believe this is only true if you switch to +/- 0 and then don’t make any other adjustments. The reason tons of items are in a specific BR is because “well, what if they get up-tiered, then they’ll be weak, so let’s allow these couple of overpowered weapons into this lower tier just in case.” If you separate BRs and then re-classify weapons and vehicles knowing that they will only ever face the same BR, you won’t have lopsided nations per BR (ideally, if done correctly).

As far as matchmaking time, I’ve never waited more than 1 minute, and barely ever more than 40 seconds, in BR1-3. I don’t play 4 or 5, so couldn’t say, but the playerbase will definitely redistribute if +/- 0 is implemented, because there won’t be the up-tier boogeyman to contend with, and better balance means better distribution of nations and BRs.

Additionally, you could add an optional “willing to uptier” checkbox like the join any box, which would only engage after a certain amount of time (30s, 60s, whatever makes sense), and any TEAM, not just individual player, who has an imbalance of BRs gets 5% score multiplier per net discrepancy (so if one team has 1 lower tier player and the other has 3, they would get 10% score bonus for “fighting up hill”).

Letting it as it should will not Help ANYTHING, it will only make the Game unfair, Outmatched, Out Classed. The Newer Players that Starts enlisted will be Decimated if it isnt Divided. The Dividing is Asked for Mellinials of Time because how Crap that BR Match is Right now. The Players leave because the Game doesnt Change or Work against this Issue that Many Agree should be Changed Definitiv. Enlisted has many Problems but being Outmatched isnt a Skill Issue but a Game Problem in Enlisted!

I would also add that BR1 should be further segmented into players who have finished research tier 1 (i think it’s 1. The one where you unlock the first set of backpacks and mines and whatnot), and those who haven’t. Actual noobs playing against noobs, until they cross that threshold.

As it is, a player with a sniper squad, a rifle squad, a medic squad, and an open top tank, with max 1 grenade per soldier, can be playing against someone with (some) semi autos, event paras, event assault squads, much better planes and tanks, engineers, and everyone with ammo bags/3 grenades, and mines, PLUS all the skill/experience that comes with that.

I really enjoy the playstyle of BR1, even if I’m always uptiered to BR2, but usually feel bad when steamrolling – that’s not why I’m there, I’d like to play against other competent players who just enjoy the more restricted playstyle of BR1 with no MGs and ass SMGs, where bolties, engineering, and actual strategy are more viable.

It’s no wonder people play 1 or 2 battles and then never play again, and that’s a shame. And i say that from experience. I started playing 3 years ago, stumbled poorly through 10-12 matches, didn’t understand the upgrade system, didn’t have engineers while people scream BUILD RALLY all day, and then i stopped playing for 2.5 years until i picked it up again this March and it “clicked” for me.

Tldr, we’re missing out on growing the playerbase by having BR1 ALWAYS uptiered to BR2, and noobs getting stomped.

I can only agree. The match making system is totally crap with people getting uptiered or downtiered left and right. The excuses are many - the playerbase isn’t big enough to support seperate BR’s, the time in queue would be several minutes etc.

There is a solution though even if I doubt it will ever happen.

Instead of having just one build and deciede what BR you want to play - give us a build for each BR we would accept to play as we unlock them. If you want to play a BR set up squads for it - if you don’t want to play a BR then don’t set up squads. The more factions/BR’s you pick the faster you will get into a game.

Potentially that is 20 build, but that would mean that each BR could be +/- 0.

It would mean that :

  • New BR1 players wouldn’t meet (and be steamrolled by) BR2 players with automatic weapons.
  • New players that has just unlocked their first BR2 squad wouldn’t find themselves up against BR3.
  • BR4 might actually be played since BR4 players no longer would be uptired to BR5.
  • Gaijin could sell more squads from store since some people can’t play unless they have certain squads in their build.

It is a solution that would work and the only ones who would lose from it are the ones that deliberately pick a BR because they know that they will get downtiered so they can farm exp.

Dividing has many good Reasons and there are 8.

  1. You dont get Uptiered which doesnt Demotivates you
  2. You will have a good Match which doesn’t get Destroyed by Stronger BRs
  3. This will ease the GRIND by 34-40%
  4. You won’t have to Wait 1-2 Minutes
  5. It will make the People Lesser Leave a Battle
  6. Factions won’t be that Bad because of Higher BRs since you fight Evenly
  7. You have good Game Matches that are Fair and not being S###
  8. You will not be Demotivated because you wont fight High BRs

Then there is a other Reason behind it

If you got an Full BR 3 then you EXPECT to Play against BR 3 Only and not being Smashed by BR 4 Players which Stronger Equipment, Sweaters that destroys the whole Match entirely, in which you either take it or say no F#ck this i am gonna Leave it. The Same goes for BR 1, BR 2, BR 3, 4 and 5. The whole BR Match system isnt Good at all and this makes the Players leave the Game Behind and thats why the People leave for this Reason.

27

Ahh yes, instead of waiting a minute or two we can wait 4 minutes or 8

If you wanna play against somebody higher then do it by yourself! Anyone else has asked this for Years since Merge, the Battle BR System is just bad and not Fair. There are many People that play for Fun but get Kicked in their Asses just because they have Lower BR weapons, it isnt fair for Newer Players aswell not all want to have the Experience to get Head Banged four times the Weekend and not everyone likes being Pushed over and over again that isnt fun at all. Because of this BR Match Failure many people left because the People do not want to get Unfair Treated, even myself i say this is not Fair for New comers and to the Waiting that is just pure Crap. There are Plenty of People Joining the Game every Day and the most start at BR 1 just because some think when “This” gets Reworked then it would take Millenials of Years just to get a Match. There are other Problems aswell in Enlisted like the Old Tutorial. That the People Leave the Match is because of many things and one of those is the Unfair BR Battle System which kicks you into an Higher BR Hornet Nest and the Lower BRs get Kicked in their Butts just because they have Lower BR Equipment.

I play Enlisted before of the Great Merge, i care for the New Players and the Vets i dont think they should treated as Garbage, Lower BR Players any Type like BR 4 gets Ignored because BR 5 Kicks their Head over and over again the same is said by the other BRs aswell.

30

If you want to play Higher Brs then do what Kropo said “put on YOUR Squad an Higher BR Equipment and do whatever you wanna do but don’t make it harder for the Others” just because YOU think it should as it has been since Ages but did you thought of the other Players that dont want to DEAL with that? Are you really Willing to make the Matches that Unfair that Enlisted looses People just because the BR Battle System is Unfair?

31

I am still voting no because the only compromises I would accept would be:

BR 1-2 stay the same.

Br3 is by itself.

Br4-5 stays same

Or

BR1-2 stay the same

BR3-BR4 stay the same

BR5 is by itself.

If you still think it okay then it is so but i stay aswell into my Opinion that the BR System should be changes Divided and Fair.

33

Surprisingly true, i didn’t expect this details but getting a match with br5 gears take a lot of time compared to BR3 or BR4, from 10 matchs that i have with BR4 gear only 3 was BR3-4, all the others was the common BR4-5 carnage

This one can work better since they want to add Tunisia in the BR4 tier and full autos there would be kinda unpleasant like in Ardennes and Rhazev

You need to consider different faction, different br, different server, different time. Sometimes it is possible to wait for few minutes.
