Matchmaking ISSUE

I have a 7.0 BR tier IV tank and immidiately ive been playing on higher tiers with higher BR tanks. what is the purpose of the BR when it does not do its purpose?

If you are using 7.0, you can face anything from 6.0-8.0

I cam understand if its BR7.3 or max 7.7 as it is the entry BR for tier V. but BR 8.0 a Tier V tank miles away when if looked as level of tank fighting a tier IV tank is way too OP. i have seen a TIER V BR 8.0 single handendly killed 3 TIER IV BR 7.0 tanks on a gunpoint fight and won without a scratch. isnt it just way too UNFAIR?

ive seen a 7.0 kill 3 8.0 tanks without them even noticing him, its not as big of a deal as youd think

Once you get more experience and learn how to better work with what you have, you can deal with them.

yeah a fully upgradef 7.0 tank can kill but how about when you just recently purchased a 7.0BR tank and you are thrown in a 8.0 BR FIGHT full of fully upgraded tier V? when your 7.0BR TANK dies your backup tanks are just 6.7 max. this is about for everyone to enjoy the game evenly. even with good skills your tank just dies because of this unfair matchmaking. higher tier can just tank you up facing head on without getting any scratches.

not every 8.0 tank you fight will always be fully upgraded either

thats entirely your own fault, either get more 7.0 tanks or stop using a single 7.0 tank in a 6.7 lineup

so dont face them head on? go flank or stick with one of your teammates

yeah im sticking away hiding from teammates when all of us are just BR7.0 and the 8.0 just barged in and killed us at gunpoint on 3vs1. thats where my frustation comes from.

so uhhh he took at least 15 seconds to do that, almost certainly 5-10 seconds longer, why didnt you shoot his gun or anything?

so you mean dont buy a 7.0 tank and stick on 6.7? so how do you level up going higher tiers then? when you have researched and buy all of them? so your logic is dont go up and kust stick on it instead of accepting the fact that there is an issue within the game?

we shot him he just reloaded so fast and 1 shot 3 of us one by one. if I can find the replay ill show you

youre talking about arcade US lineups right? so use your 6.7 lineup to grind out multiple 7.0 tanks before you make a 7.0 lineup, there are 3 7.0 tanks in rank 4 that you can get, i mean you can even grind all of rank 5 with your 6.7 lineup

what tank was he in?

I still remembered it right it was a T-54. that it made me look again on the USSR tree and check its tank armor protection analysis

so he rolls up shoots one of you, and the other two of you just do what during the next like 16 seconds before youre both dead? I can assume from your complaining earlier that you were in the middle of reloading but what about the other guy?

I really dont think this is an issue with the matchmaking, it just sounds like an unfortunately situation where you got unlucky and didnt manage to take out his gun or anything, like if youd been in a vehicle with a quicker reload you probably wouldve been fine, but thats kinda just the price you pay in vehicles with long reloads

scenario was like this. the two guys are capturing the location and T-54 was sneaking in. I saw him from a distance and shoot him first and it just ricocheted. then he procedes to the two guys while being shotted at gunpoint and still survies and 1 shot the first guy. im not sure if he 50 calibered the other guy or he shot him again as I was using a T34 with reload speed quite slow. he then killed the other guy also while they were shooting at gunpoint still till he kill him and my second shot just penetrated but not killed any of his troops. then he faced me headon and killed me in 2 shots. like we all 3 have shotter him as we were already expecting him to come as I have seen him first sneaking to us and was already showing in our maps but just because of the tank difference non of our shots managed to kill him hence when fighting other tanks we could manage to kill even at least one of us. he was just killed when one of us came back in a tank destroyer

not much to do but just be more patient and aim better next time

like I said, that couldve happened regardless of what tank he was in, like the somua or t44-100 couldve managed the same thing, the only difference is they have a bit less armour

just unlucky

well really got unlucky that time. I was just hoping they can make a better matchmaking logic in the future to minimize this kind of issue. theres no perfect game they can just make it a better game and community for everyone to enjoy

more complex matchmaking logic massively increases queue times, and people hate long queues, Ive seen people complain on the forums about queueing for longer than 1 minute before,

also generally yeah decompression is the solution not decrease max BR spread to 0.7 as some people want, but in the long term its just a better solution to decompress by the same amount

well I dont mind fighting higher BR as long its on the same tank tier or just the entry tank on the next tier as it is understandable. but for ones like it where it is almost the last tank on the next tier is just way too much. hopefully GAIJIN can come up with a better matchmaking logic.
