Another matchmaker classic, gotta love it. I’ve had much worse in the past like when the SU27 first came out I had an entire team of premium phantoms and not a single 12.0/12.3 (I forget what BR it was at the time but the F4S was 11.3) versus like mostly SU27s and like 2 Mig23s. I think it has something to do with people queued together or something and the matchmaker just filling the holes of what is supposed to be your high tier aircraft with people who are partied together. I have no idea if this is true though dont quote me on this.
There is no balancing element in the matchmaker’s algorithm.
It only follows the rules: range of 1.0 BR and max planes e.g.:
BR 10.0-11.0
max 4 planes 11.0
If no 11.0, so max 8 10.7
if no 11.0/10.7, so max 12 10.3
Lowest BR is always filler.
Think thats not actually how, its supposed to go by a system that 1/4 the team is supposed to be at each BR, for example a 12 player per team match from 8.0-9.0 should have 3 8.0, 3 8.3, 3 8.7 and 3 9.0 but it just doesn’t work some of the time and I got no clue why.
This was never the case. The rules are always static, and they never were changed. Even in the old 12v12 system it was the same.
Why not?, we have earned all our planes…
Level =/= skill
Late props are still perfectly fine against basically all the early jets (cough BI-1) and have little issue for the most part.
