It is super annoying, I just started to play in berlin and on the first match I play, it is fill with high level player with ppsh or mp43, plsease balance it, so only player level 10 player could only play with player level under 10 and player level above 30 could only play with player above 30!

no.
It’s not a smart idea, because:
Right now the player base is divided between 6 campaigns, 12 factions.
- You’re asking the player base to be split into 3 lvl groups. Player base would be split in 36.
lvl restriction is a shitty way to match make. Instead what the game needs is simply put the same amount of human players per team, AND SAME NUMBER OF SWEATY STACKS.
Then if, and only if, the game still remains so unbalanced, another solution could be sought.

I understand, but if they want more players they have to fix the problem,
That they do… That they do…
When I started playing, there was only 2 or 3 campaign to choose from. It meant every match was quite full, whatever the side.
It was fun. I remember being lvl 5 or so in Moscow and stumbling face to face with a t28, while on foot, for the first time. Was pretty scary… But so much fun. I didn’t mind that this opponent was 20 or so lvls over me. It just gave me motivation to lvl myself and unlock similar goodies.
I didn’t mind because there wasn’t many bots in game, matches were full of humans, low and high lvl alike could contribute and make a difference.
Nowadays… matches are too one sided. Because oftentimes, one side is fully populated in match, while the other has 2 or 3 human players and bots to fill the missing slots.
I’m not even taking into account “stacks” who are ppl playing togheter in a group, usually very sweaty, dominating thanks to communication.
So yes, a match maker is desperately needed. But devs must be careful how they implement it as it could make things worse (like splitting player base even more)
- your suggestion would mean the playerbase would be split more, and lvling would stop making any sense, as the higher lvl you get the less pleasant matches are (only sweatlords)
- a skill based mm would be problematic also, as it would be extremely difficult to gauge who is skilled and who isn’t, and also turn matches into chores.
- an equipment based mm wouldn’t solve balance issue, and ppl like me still using bolt actions in some campaigns, wouldn’t notice.
It’s why I think something very basic, barebone, like same amount of human, and stacks or squads per side would be good… for a start.
We will see what devs chose to do. Sadly they’re not very smart balance wise and often do weird decisions choices.

Im not one to complain about matchmaker, but at the same time, matches like this just shouldn’t exist lol

I’ve been having some bad ones over on Normandy as well recently. A few very onesided matches. Seems like there are possibly some premades running. Once many players encounter this, they will quit, leaving 1-3 humans VS a fully loaded team on the other side. So it is also self reinforcing. And the premades keep going, because farming bots is great xp. Best option I see at the moment is to join them, but… I don’t blame you if you don’t want to, farming enemy spawn every game feels bad too.
I think premades (for example those with more than 3 players) should be matched against other premades. This could create long wait times for those people, but probably better matches as well. I think it’s reasonable, given how much of a difference it makes, and how bad the gameplay is when it devolves into pve farming.
Starting a new capaign is always difficult cause you dont know the maps and there is hi level players too who has advantage but its like that i started end of july and i fiunished 5 campaign so keep on try harding things shouldnt be easy i think it should stay like that
well it is 10vs13 (not 15 like it shows). trying to get devs to fix it, but still 4 months in and nothing done.
First game playing again and immediately remembered why i quit. Played as allies on d-day and didn’t see a single person on my side with upgraded equipment, while the enemy team had 4 high rank players with a Tiger just sitting at the top of the map getting free kills because we didn’t even have anything that could damage it.
Thanks
