For starters just measure and match of a Time in Game…how many hours…0-100 etc. There is no way in hell it makes sense for a 10 hour player to be facing a 5k hour player.

Ngl, would be funny af to watch matches full of lvl10 premium hordes in their 12.0 jets.
This is one of the worst takes on matchmaking for a large scale vehicle game ive ever seen

What are you saying?
Skill based matchmaking will make this game worse, simple as that
hullo gaijin, this is a serious post about your matchmaking
Do you even hear yourself? Do you expect them to listen or something? I’m not really getting your message here boss.
Is this the only game you’ve ever played? Because honestly, it’s completely clear that every single PvP game has matchmaking. Every one of them. That’s the foundation of PvP. Do you get it? Maybe here they treat it like some sort of committee decision, but for heaven’s sake… matchmaking is the basis of every PvP game xD. It has never ruined a single game and it never will, and it wouldn’t ruin War Thunder either.
But I’m curious why the developers haven’t spoken about this yet? To me, that’s incomprehensible. This is a service that many of us pay for. The boss has a new car, the moderators and the devs have jobs because we pay and keep the game alive. Don’t we deserve at least that much? A fair explanation?
I understand it’s free-to-play, but everyone knows you can’t live off ‘free.’ They owe us a proper explanationwe’re not asking for something impossible :( The developers do good work, but always on things that aren’t what many players would actually want. Still, they really do put a lot of effort into the game. Many developers just take the money and disappear, but the War Thunder devs genuinely work hard on the game. That’s why I don’t understand why they don’t bother to give us an answer.

Yeah, no, lots of things have ruined PvP games, but SBMM is not one one them (as long as it’s properly tuned, which I will admit is an argument to be made.)
I don’t like to be “uptiered” the second I get a good game. Skilled based matchmaking will just turn this game into vehicle combat Call of Duty
how the sob didnt closed this topic, if i open this topic they will close in minutes. but this one open for months.
i find migrants in hungary, for 100 euro beat workers, for 500 euro stab. maybe 500x10 makes game great again. its not just a game anymore for me bc of topic closer sob.
anyway
sbmm is a lie, money maker MM is real.
yesterday we have 2x6.3 2x6.0 and others 5.7
enemy have 4x6.7 total 16 tanks (3 type of tiger2+jagtiger+ferdinand+elephant)
battle lost in 5 minutes. no one kill enemy, and die them via 1 shot. SKİLL BASED?
2 battle after we have 2x6.7 player and they only have total 2x6.7 tanks (is2 1944 and T44) enemy have AGAİN 4x6.7 total 16 tanks (3 type of tiger2+ jagtiger+ ferdinand+ elephant) we barely win (tnx to 2 of us made spawncamp, 1 of angry me)
i will solve problem 2026 summer, now i have do my jobs and close my shop for a while, and will spent 5000 euro in hungary. will be f’in fun for me.
The question
The answer
agreed 100% at least make a casual mode for lower skill and casual players. i mean it only makes sense.
a majority of players are not sweaty and cant put 80 hours a week in to playing so your just throwing a majority of your players to the wolves. that is why you get burned out so fast i mean i understand monetization but dont think im gonna spend money on things to get diddled 90% of the time.
tnx sjw, everybody enlightened. next time look what my topics.
Lol. Lmao even.
I did. The ones closed where all ones you made because you were raging from an uptier.
congrats you can read
Ideally, I would assume it would be properly tuned.
I mean, it’s supposed to be tuned, as far as I was aware…
At least, that’s how I would do it - that’s the point of view I’m arguing from when I say I’m in favor of SBMM. A rolling average of some form.
Would be a first in my experience.
I have yet to play a game with SBMM that worked like that.

And that’s the biggest tragedy of all.
A bit late to this thread. Wouldn’t that mean your own teammate is also full of sweats?
In my opinion, I’ll take this over whatever we have now. I want games to be rewarding, not a curb stomp.
I’ve experience few matches where both teams wanted to win, and stuck around till the very end. Those were one of the most fulfilling matches I’ve had in this game.
