[Discussion] Balance, Bias, Matchmaking and Battle Ratings

This is the case for any SPAA

Japan is still lacking a lot of lower-tier anti-air options despite many existing within the time frame. Such as the Ki-To. In which the Type-94 becomes 1.0. While the Ki-To becomes 1.3.

Or some of whatever these are.

Unfortunately, what I experienced today was non-stop seal clubbing by level 85 and over. It’s so bad I’m deleting this account, which will take about 30 days to vanish. I’ve watched level 100s end up with 14 to 20 kills against reserve tanks with no end in sight. And they think nothing of it. If you look under their profile there countries have all been grinded out, and yet you hear the same excuse over and over again that, "I’m just grinding out new tanks which is never the case. A lot of people come and go in this game, and now I understand why. There is no point in playing it when low-tier players are being used for target practice, and this is a fact. I’m going to be just another statistic of a player who came and went, and nobody will even care. I do feel there are other games in existence, and you just have to search them out. War Thunder has no system in place, and I don’t think they really care. It’s a free-for-all. Anyway, I will be deleting this account after I have posted what I feel is an important topic. I know all the know-it-alls will be responding, and that’s why nobody posts in this forum. It’s obvious. Goodbye, War Thunder. After 30 days, the account will be deleted.

This is why I support Skill Based Matchmaking

Okay

The best part is when people say “but then it’ll be a sweatfest” simply because they don’t want to fight people as good as them.

Levels whatso ever don’t mean a thing

Sonion, what are you even talking about.

Ahh, we still got people supporting the fallacy

I would say it turns into a sweatfest just because that is how other games seem to be.

You win like 2 games and the mm puts you against people who havent seen daylight in months. Then you have to spend 5 matches of that before it decides to lower you a little.

You act as if it’s impossible to think of a MM slightly decent - based off monthly stats - specifically K/S. Winrates are an awful way to decide someone’s skill. They do well monthly? Go up a notch. They perform poorly? Nice then down.

Probably because i have never experienced a decent mm

And would this be general? gamemode? br range? nation?

For each BR range they have a unique stat for their K/S in that game mode. So if they’re very good and have a 6.47 K/S at 3.7 GRB but have an atrocious skill level at top tier air RB it’ll not put them in sweatfest lobbies at top tier but won’t match them against infants in GRB. Makes sense right?

This make a lot more sense than the usual suggestion(demand) of “give everyone a single rank that affects mm everywhere”. Like people who think lvl means so much. I have been lvl 100 for years and i suck at naval and air sim.

Well I’m lvl 50 and not to toot my own horn but I’m better than the average lvl70 at grb lol

lvl based MM is BS

but you just did

I’m better than the average lvl70 at grb lol

the cap is level 100, most good players are going to be there, not level 70 and definitely not level 50, I would even say the majority are at level 100

You can get a top tier MBT and FOX-3 equipped jet by swiping your credit card.

Sealclubbing happens at every BR it’s just part of the game.

There isn’t; WOT is purely tanks, and that’s purely arcadey and, well… not great.
WOWS->Purely ships, amazing system, but also fake stuff.
WOWP → It’s completely dead for being Arcade and not so good kind either.

Here’s the real truth, there are no games where all said categories are in the same game at the same length it is sadly here…

just like WT naval for the most part then. (WOWS is vastly superior to WT naval no matter which way we look at it ngl)

  1. level is not an indication of a player being good. I’m lvl 100 but I suck at RGB.
  2. level doesn’t even mean you have played 1 game in that mode.
  3. some players (like me) prefer low-mid tier because of the vehicles - WW2.

So why did you post?

See ya!
