Except, it’s not permanent. You would’ve known this if you actually read my messages. This is a small temporary drawback of a good system. If you think everyone can be “downtiered” at any time, like with your ‘parallel’ idea, you’re just being silly. It’s not a sustainable solution.
There will always be up tiers and downtiers. It’s just the way the game is balanced. We can either go the RB route and have it be up to complete RNG, or we can actually have a predictable consistent system/schedule with rotating brackets where we know what we’re getting ourselves into each day, not having to cross our fingers every time we press play. If we want the brackets, then we inherently can’t have everyone get downtiers all the time without there being 30+ brackets which is just ridiculous. Get over it.
Resorting to these kinds of insults really only shows where your own maturity is at. Trust me, you’re not coming across any better.
We already have this, there’s multiple brackets with only 3 BR’s above 9.7. This already creates some issues where it thins-out player base a bit, making it harder to fill a game.
(brackets with a red dot have only 3 BR’s)
The only solution we could have to fix the 11.0 down-tier is to make some of the brackets only have 2 BR’s.(alternatively have one massive bracket with 5 BR’s) These 2 alternatives would be either:
11.3-12.0 and 12.3-12.7 (2 BR’s)
or
11.3-11.7 and 12.0-12.7 (2 BR’s)
or
10.0-11.0 and 11.3-12.7 (5 BR’s)(they did something like this last update, people hated it.)
One of them will be a tiny bracket which will struggle to fill players, this is the reason I have understanding for some BR’s not having a full down-tier sometimes… Once 13.0 or 13.3 arrives, 11.0 downtier will be back. It’s not that big of a deal.
Just to clarify, doing something like this with 2 BR’s, or 5 BR’s is still a solution I can reason with, but I can also see why Gaijin didn’t go in this direction - And ultimately, I believe doing one of these (2 or 5BR brackets) would damage sim more, than 11.0 temporarily missing out on a full down-tier would damage sim.
I don’t know where we should ‘draw the line’ between top-tier but 11.0 isn’t it.
I don’t often go into peoples stats, but sometimes someone makes a post so detached from reality and reasoning that there’s just no way they actually have the experience.
This guy is currently presenting ridiculous solutions which would clearly damage top-tier, I checked his stats - he’s never flown anything top tier/above 11.0.
Let me reiterate, a guy that’s only ever flown 11.0 and has a premium at the BR, wants a solution which would massively damage top-tier so that the exact BR of 11.0 doesn’t have to temporarily face a single 0.3 BR up tier. (likely sooner with Fox 3.). I also didn’t say that his opinion didn’t matter, I’ve been trying to have a good discussion with him, I’m simply pointing out some pretty obvious bias here…
Obviously this depends on the context. My opinion on most matters regarding Ground/tank stuff should not matter or carry any weight… Because I have no experience.
What do you mean crippled? It’s performing to charts and even overperforming in AoA in WT. If anything it’s OP. I haven’t flown DCS F16 though, maybe that one is even more over-performing.
