Long queue times for top tier Russia

I’ve got to ask—what is actually being done about the long queue times for top tier Russia?

Right now it feels like every discussion about balance, BR changes, or adding/removing vehicles just gets shut down with the same excuse: “queue times would get worse.” But the queue times are already bad. Sitting there waiting several minutes just to get into a match at top tier completely kills the flow of the game.

It puts players in a weird spot where:

Balance concerns don’t get addressed
New ideas get dismissed outright
And the existing experience keeps getting worse

So what’s the plan here? Are there any changes being worked on to improve matchmaking or reduce queue times at high tiers? Whether that’s adjustments to matchmaking rules, incentives for other nations, decompression, or something else—it would be good to hear anything concrete.

At the moment, “queue times” feels less like a temporary issue and more like a permanent wall stopping any kind of improvement.

Would really appreciate some insight from the devs on this.

Do you play solo ?
Few days ago I played like 3-4 games with two 13.0 USSR friends of mine and I was using China. We joined every game without waiting for a minute at like midnight hours in EU.

aren’t there literally 200+ players in queue while around 20-30 in othere nations
