I still think why not matchmaking based on ranks… So that’s wasted?
matchmaking based on equipment is… OKish. But the actual core issue is still player’s skills. And we have a semi working system on it. Why not improve that one.
Also, I think the equipment quantity should also be considered.
There’s lots of late coming players who only get 1 or 2 newly unlocked weapons, while the rest of his equipment is still not updated to higher BR.
(To deal with someone who has fully equipped with FG42II/MG15s, vs some one just get one FG42)
Not the same as Enlisted
I think equipment based tiering is much better than rank/level based or skill.
Gives you more variety in the game. If it was rank or skill, the game would be nothing but assault rifles and heavy tanks. Sweating like hell, not enjoying using a panzer II or a at rifle.
With it being based of gear, you can enjoy weapons and vehicles from any part of the game
Like right now?
yup. like right now.
Hey I like it how it is now. But I also see the need for all the campaigns to be combined to make it more viable to keep adding content without continuously dividing what we have. (tiering is still division but…maybe not so drastic) And Id like this game to get support for years and extend on to Korea, Vietnam, modern day etc etc. (eventually. Id prefer they fully flesh out WW 2 first)
If I cant have it like it is now. I figure Weapon tiering is the next best thing… (even though I think it will ruin the WW2 feel of endgame, cos it will be nothing But Assault rifles and MGS)
The difference being new players will play against people with the same weapons as them. Not elite players with the highest possible gear as they do now
This depends on the BR setting because newbies with T-34 85s will probably still face pros. And people will face pros in general anyway.
They need to research it at first
You get free T-34-85 at the start and the other one is like five level or so.
And? Do you think they will take away stuff we already unlocked`?
Someone who plays a game for couple weeks isn’t a noob.
And he can always change its setup to the early game.
Well. Again, the DT-5 is starter tank which you will auto get. And the other 85 is also quite easy and fast to get, you dont need weeks for it.
this
And? He still has option to play high BR with the 85 and probably will.
Thats his own choice
rank only shows that x player has played for a period of time recently, it’s a horrible thing to go off of, especially considering seasonal resets. If you want skill-based matchmaking, I’m sorry to tell you that basically never works properly. The BR system works pretty fine since it pits everyone up against each other on (somewhat) equal ground, leaving it down to whoever is better to win

They will have similar equipment though.
I have no doubt people will still be facing pros in general since they haven’t bothered to add in some kind of soft SBMM, but at least the noobs won’t be facing pros with the worst possible equipment
Keo literally said this was an example and was not to be used as a fact
Check WT tree - player starts with bad (often early) equipment
T-34/85 is neither bad nor early
