Interesting uptier bug

why?
Because I am trying to understand the bug that has occured? Because I just so happen to have spend at least 40h of my real life time (over the past 3 or 4 years) arguing about the MM and how it works in order to try to persuade people why +/-0.7BR MM is not only possible but also for the better?

It just so happens that this issue falls right into my ball-park of knowledge of the game. And a topic I like to discuss, argue and speculate about?

I also want +/-0.7, I’m just saying, the most obvious answer is Gaijin is full of it, and that the +/-1.0 is a standard, not a rule.

You can’t even load into a match with more than 4 people in a squad. Unless my game is telling me wrong.

Yeah it’s not just you. I’ve had several battles where I was playing a lineup That was Max 1.7 and was going up against things that were 3.0.

Were you playing arcade air? It has a system where if you take only 1 plane, that plane is downtiered by 0.3.

There is a video on youtube showing a similar thing, where a squad in air RB was uptiered by over 1.3.

My maus was killed few times recently by object 279
Never play in squad
Pointless complaining

No that is not what it says. It says you can be up tiered by 1.0 battle rating it does not say at any point that you can be up tiered any higher or lower than that it says plus or minus 1.0. In fact a full point in battle rating makes it hard to beat to begin with. For instance I have three planes and the highest one is 1.7 I get a full up tier, that means that after my first 1.7 plane is dead I’m pretty much screwed because the rest of my planes are 1.3 going up against 2.7. The person with a 2.7 is pretty much going to murder everybody who’s not close to his br. If you want to look at it another way at 1.7 I’m looking at 12.7 MM machine guns. At 2.7 we’re talking 20 mm Cannon even 50 Cals. So if you push the tear over a full point we’re talking about I’m just a flying Target at that point. I can’t shoot the enemy because their weapons were more powerful and have a longer range. I digress though it is what it is.

Nah it’s ground…

But the need to see the scoreboard is a key thing here, if the squad was a created squad, then there’s grounds to suspect the other player in the squad using a BR higher than the OP.

No.
First, you can only start searching for a match if all squadmates are ready, if he disconected later he would still be in the match. You can always rejoin a squad match no matter what, which is different from solo play.
So we would still see the third person in the replay, just with the normal parachute icon or the “quit” icon. It is impossible for him to be not visible in the replay if he was in the squad

So no. there is no reason to see the scoreboard, as we can see all the information on the score board and more in the replay.

No… The squad creation is important as it differentiates between it being an auto-squadie, or a genuine created squad.

You can just have 2 in a squad. You don’t need to fill it.

I don’t think you can, due to what I have pointed towards.

I’m sorry, but are you just saying no because it’s me posting, or because you genuinely don’t care what the point was?

See the difference between the squads in the scoreboard? Mine is an autosquad, the others are created. There’s a couple of autosquads on the enemy, but 3+ created ones.

I don’t think you see this detail from the server replay, and that’s where I’m pointing to, as I’m sure the other that commented about the scoreboard is as well.

Exactly, I was fighting Israeli M-51s at 4.7 Britain. I was fighting Maus at 6.3, hell, I’ve fought Tigers at 4.3 Russia. But somehow it’s always a lie, and there must have been something in the water, and totally not Gaining being themselves.

I have a simple suggestion as to why this happened:
They are a premade squad (in the last few games).
Two matches before, they play air realistic, using 11.3 planes.

One match before, they play ground realistic and run into Type 90 Fuji 11.3.
https://warthunder.com/en/tournament/replay/330022594081342778
My suggestion: at least one of them still has the plane in the lineup, as they didn’t change nations.

So it would boil down to insufficient data in the start post.

Voice below confirms my theory.

It looks like your friend had Tornado IDS WTD 61 in his lineup.
