What he is describing and what you have to do to live in these jets without flares is what passive is. IE flying around at altitude or away from the furball waiting for some lucky opportunity to engage without dying. You are actively a wasted slot until you start fighting.
Playing passive = you’re not playing well. period.
People who suggest playing passively are themselves terrible players. You do not want to win. I do. Therefore playing passively is counter-productive.
They could also reimplement the Matchmaking Wall at 9.7 / 9.3 BR or so, and fill out the 50’s 60’s jets to make fairer this would be key since the top BR aircraft have limited slots available to them so they will see less full uptiers into 10.3 / 10.7.
if done right you’ll perform better passively than agressively because you get more chances to perform before turning into a flaming wreck after going too far
Wall is useless, we just need to implement ±0.7 matchmaking range where we don’t have to be useless in full uptier, instead we’re fighting plane that takes more skill than Brawn to win.
Not really, like this there’s more chance for player to actually stay longer in the game because you’d notice meaningful but workable performance difference at .7 uptier, at 1.0 uptier you’re utterly useless.
Not only that, the RP/SL rewards from staying alive and winning a 10-15 minute match in Rank 5 and 6 are exponentially greater than playing 2 or 3 matches over the same time time and exchanging your plane with an opponent after 1 or 2 kills 3 minutes into a match.
Nope. You can’t read confirmed. Completely different message is presented there but you want to “win” the argument so you’ll intentionally misrepresent what someone says to do so. Think that isn’t obvious?
The ENTIRE point is that you HAVE to play this way on jets without flares, but that it is VERY MUCH a playstyle that WILL NOT enable you to win games because of how FORCE MULTIPLIERS work. While you’re off J/Oing in atmosphere the rest of your team is dying.
Matchmaking wall did NOTHING but bring trouble. Like playing 8.7-9.0? Not any more!
All the wall did was make a new top tier where that top tier (9.7) could not see uptiers and THEREFORE 8.7-9.3 could NOT see downtiers either. On top of that, it made 10.0 jets unplayable as well! Since they ALSO couldn’t see ANYTHING but uptiers. Nowadays with there being more BRs than just 10.3 (which was the current top tier at the time) that means the entirety of 10.0-10.7 will be also pointless to play because they will see NOTHING but 11.0
It’s a shitty half baked “solution” that doesn’t solve anything.
If I may ask, how would someone play boom and zoom under your rules? I thought boom and zoom was getting to high alt and picking off planes below you who are lower energy or ditrscted.
