Does anyone miss old matchmaking (with more historical teams)

I think the game lost something special and extremely fun when they removed allies vs axis, nato versus warsaw, US/UK versus Japan, USSR versus Germany only, etc. Those matches had a theme to them and very interesting matchups could be made. It was more dynamic back then, you didn’t know what kind of match you’d get and to me it was far more immersive. I could fool myself into believing something a bit more real was going on when it was at least structured.

Basically what I’m saying is, I miss “themed” matches where there were specific matchups and I think the newer style of matchmaker is lame and boring in comparison. It creates the same old matches every single time with no variety.

Isn’t it still exist?
I got NATO vs Red team MM in few days ago when I played F2 Sabre and CL-13A Mk.5.

extremely rare, 1% maybe chance

Dude, I bet you don’t play much in the past; otherwise, you won’t have such a ridiculous proposal. Before Gaijin separate the Allies and the Axis, do you know how the imbalance between the Axis and Allies is? The axis player can easily gain altitude, and then BZ the allies like cut watermelons; it is such imbalance that even a fresh German player who only knows how to b&z can get one point five kd, whereas allies can’t play anymore if they don’t teammate with a reliable person. I even saw an Allies team with all fighters being shot down by the Axis within 12 min, and the Axis didn’t have any casualties; Axis even had four bombers.

playing since 2017, 2-3 years before this system was removed

Wasn’t that bad, I had fun on both sides and it was far more dynamic, immersive, and thematic.

I mean, UK had spitfires, russia had yaks and Las, US has shit like XP-50 thats still not nerfed. It’s fine. I’d prefer this even if I could never play axis and could only play USA.

Man… I still has PTSD for Japan vs Russia MM.

I loved that though.

They could at least make them more common.

Better not; otherwise, the game will be ruined again; nobody wants to see one side can get more than 70, even 80 percent, whereas the other side keeps losing and then losing all players.

Hey, you are not a masochism or axis player, are you?


Over exaggerate? Dude, you can check my profile, I play more than 2000 times on T3 propeller, I think that is enough.

I played back then and had a great time

I strongly wonder if you are masochism.

Not really.

At least in the jet tier, when MM switched to Allies vs Axis around 2018, Germany and Japan WRs surged because Axis team didn’t have any bombers at 8.0-9.0BR ranges also, allies team had tons of “undertiered” top tier jets such as original MiG-15 and F9Fs.

Also, the neutral nations can go on either side, I just want the main nations to not mingle so much like USA/GER/USSR

It was a stomp fest for the allies, thats why it got dropped.

That is a direct contradiction to what others are saying here
