Level 100 players on low BR

I think he just wants to club the lvl 10s without anyone in his matches that is higher level than him. Uncontested so to say^^

Oh and since you’re now basically locked out of playing br 1.0 with people of lower level good luck finding matches at br 1.0 in a reasonable amount of time with lvl 70+ players to grind a new nation.

What he is also unaware of is:
We had a protected newbie zone for beginners, as he thinks of as a solution. It didn’t work at all. Because players were registering new accounts and played along with the beginners. There was no balance. They have since dissolved this newbie zone.

I tried to point out to him, that his new newbie zone would be infested with hordes of cheaters, who just play for fun until the next ban wave resets their level. So he would have many experienced players with cheats and no one to identify them. At the moment he has managed to reach LVL100, he would be back on square one. Again the least experienced against players who are all more experienced. A bit short sighted.

He also ignores that all the level 100s around have been once where he is now. But he wants an easier ride than others before, cause he feels like “chinese in wheelchairs” or some such.

No, because I want to face skilled players. Number go up is fun, but it gets stale, and I want to really be able to use my skills to be better than competent opponents. It’s honestly worse at prop tiers, and one of the reasons why I don’t find it as fun anymore in ARB.

How would that work?

No one should ever be gatekept from playing a certain BR because of their level.

Dont really get the issue. I dont even know what level i am but have played for years (i can check, but i dont feel the need). I can play whatever BR i want and i dont do it for advantage…but FOR FUN. Low BR games are different and i sometimes feel like playing them…

I am not a very good player, so i dont “club”…but i am fairly more effective at lower BRs…i guess it evens out with the many bad games i have at higher tiers :)

AFAIK in AB matches are balanced between teams in most battles, even if by RNG…you could add some mechanism to keep both teams balanced in terms of player level…but i never felt the need…and i am not so sure that level is directly related to skill…i know it isn’t in my case.

AGAIN…this is NOT an issue to me…
ALL GAMES have good, bad and “so so” players
RNG distributes them in both teams
LOW BR have higher skill spread…normal in gaming

I think what he means is that each player should play the br bracket he/she is qeueuing for only with a pool of players of equal level (or arguably skill). The problems of which we already discussed here for ages. GL to the lvl 100 guys that played air rb but want to start ground i guess.

Also good luck finding lobbies at 1.0 as a lvl 100 player then. Apart from that it would somewhat be a solution. Low level players would play vs low level players in the lower brs and in top tier all the one trick clickbait ponies with lvl 10 would only play vs themselves. People with one tank lineups and lvl 100 that grind a new nation (lets say japan with the type 90s) would still be in the mix so…

Funny that you come up with that expression. I think last year i had a nice conversation with a chinese player that explained me a lot about the chinese playerbase, like i asked him (or her, idk) how come that it feels like a lot of chinese players seem to be really skilled even though a lot of them have low levels on their accounts. And getting in these matchmakers late at night in eu im telling you it was horror. Their whole team pushing like madmen into all the good positions, everyone snapshooting like crazy and if you dont contest you have 5 people shooting into your spawn 2 minutes in. And that guy said: When they took down the asian servers, all of those players with 1000s of hours had to start new accounts on other servers so now they are here, monsters with lvl 20 accounts. 1000s of them. GL facing those guys OP.

But my actual point is, you know how the chinese players apparently refer to the T-80BVM?
Yes, they call it the wheelchair if i remember correctly, cuz it carries ur ass :-D (at least back then it did)

It’s not an issue for anyone really as no one stays at a low level for long. Especially if they have a premium account. This “idea” would actually restrict players in addition to being a massive amount of work for Gaijin to implement.

I’d rather Gaijin focus efforts on fixing bugs, reverting the player profile card and creating more maps that cater to various play styles.

At least all level100+ Player say, who take advantage of the old system, “there is no problem” :-D enjoy your weekend…

No, I didn’t. MisterBroker used that expression in one of his posts. That is why I set it in quotation. He may have edited it out later.

Stop repeating this level 100 player nonsense. Level says nothing about skill - as stated multiple times in this thread.

Regarding SBMM:

Also stated multiple times - gaijin has something similar implemented in their MM and tries to allocate player experience equally to both teams. But they struggle massively as soon as the experience was gained outside the current mode. That’s why you lose Air RB matches even if you have a hell of highly experienced players (unfortunately “just” tankers) in your team.

Regarding “taking advantage”:

At least in Air RB the BRs 3.7-4.0 are the real WW 2 BRs as the number of postwar or non-WW 2-combat aircraft is the lowest. So every prop enthusiast plays there - and ofc a hell of kill driven players in single engine fighters in undertiered aircraft like the Yak-3 or the P-51 C.

  • The real matches begin as soon as the rookies and untrained pilots are dead and just the experienced players are still alive. But they are quite rare and 1 vs 1s vs good players are even rarer.

  • The challenge to play against excellent pilots in technically seen better aircraft is one of the reasons i play wt: Playing for the “perfect” match like being outnumbered, in a ticket disadvantage and facing excellent pilots in better aircraft and able to win is my main motivation to play this game.

  • As an example: I had such a perfect match today. I managed to beat (as last player of my team) two very good pilots (as last 2 players of their team) in a P-51 C and a Yak-3 with my favorite plane: The 8 ton SM 92 heavy fighter. Both of them had scored 4 kills in this match and i was able to force them to turn fight with me and i out-turned both of them. Replay link - skip to 12:00 to see both fights.

Air RB is no rocket science, so complaining about meeting 3-5% experienced pilots in most matches looks like an excuse to avoid to learn basics about ACM and invest some time. Most of the experienced tankers i talk to know all weak spots of enemy tanks and can recite penetration values and god knows what else.

So either you are willing to invest time to educate yourself - or you complain in the forum that life is not fair…

I will play the game the way i enjoy it. If you have a problem with getting clapped, get better at the game, it’s as simple as that. If you get better at the game than those “level 100s” you will be the one beating them, not the other way around.

All you have said in this conversation so far can be summed up as “i am bad at the game, i don’t want to face better enemies, but rather only weaker ones so i can be the one to farm them, not the other way around”

Stop crying on the forum and get good. If i want to play my Jumbo, i will play my jumbo and you can’t stop me from doing so

I’ve flew out my F4U-4 last night in ASB.

Enemy team had better coordination.
We had more level 100s.

The guy with the third best K/D ratio was… level 35 in a Bf109K4.
They also had a level 29 in the top 5, think it was a Yak-3P
Top 1 was a level 100 in a Ki-84.

The level 100 I’d attirbute in a not insignificant portion to flying the Ki-84 rather than being level 100.

The second game?

Top 1 player on my team.

Top 2 on enemy team (top 1 was a bomber, so not applicable).

Is the level 80 player that much better than the level 25?

The funny thing about this post is that the reverse is by far more common - as a level 100 player you’re way more likely to find other level 100 players at the lower (Fun) BRs and if you’re level 100 Player playing top tier almost 90% of your opponents will be low level Credit Card captains.

If you look at his data, he is a naval guy. Which means that players of top rank boats will be mixed with low rank destroyers. The whole coastal tree is on low BR.

yea i get what u mean played almost every nation at low tier and came in first and made people leave the match and they were al low tier players that are like 1-20 levels people and I think there should be a new match making once u get to a sertin level tho just so we keep new players in the game

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 stop play? Omg, stop crying and learn…

U survive for 20seconds? I just got bombed by SU-34 4seconds affter spawn while match is prolly 2-3min old…

It was there, it did the opposite. How about reading the other™ posts in this thread?

and there are people starting a new TT or spading vehicles or they just like ww2
