Troll squads

A spread of 7 BRs? Holy crap!

What’s the point of having a limitation at all if the spread is that wide.
What the hell is an A7V going to do against a Jumbo?
Or a T-60 against a Tiger?
And the differences above are not even 6.

Or maybe (I’m hoping) that “7.0 BRs” was a typo?

I mean to be completly fair, some BR spread is neccesary. I bring Gepard 1A2 to 12.7 simply because theres no other choice for gun-armed SPAA for germany, and thats spread of 3 whole BRs. Hell, Bosvark is the only SPAA UK gets for 5.7-8.0 lineups, thats also massive spread.

But then again this is extremely niche issue which realistically wont impact too many people who uptier vehicles for legitimate reasons.

But the vehicle with BR spread of 3 is not your only vehicle, right? You have other vehicles within the BR range of the battle?

The post I responded to was not addressing that. it said “atleast 1 vehicle within 7.0 BRs of the top BR in the squad lineup”
So basically they are entering a battle with their BEST vehicle 7 BRs below the range of BRs for the battle.

Unless, as I stated in my post, it was a typo (worded poorly).

Yes, sole reason I uptier Gepard is because theres no other option. Id of course much rather have BR appropriate option.

Ah i see what was the point.

In my opinion, its not a worry as some noob will try to stall fight these propeller planes anyway. And die. It can be funny.

No way in hell should 5.7s be allowed to roam freely at 12.7.
Would you like to have your team be filled with WW2 vehicles in each and every top tier game you play from now on ? Would that feel fair to you ? Would that be fun to you ?

If you feel this would cause a disturbance to you and your gameplay at top tier, then it might be a good time to rethink your proposed BR spread. Same thing for the Air BR spread.

It’s better than reserve tanks, but maybe 7.0 might be too high. However, any restriction would also cut down on the amount of people tanking brand new players into top tier.

Air RB needs a tighter restriction, but anything less than +/- 2.0 BRs for that would be too restrictive.

WW2 ones might be better than Reserves, but they aren’t even close in performance to top tier vehicles and realistically shouldn’t be able to face each other. People are already crying about certain vehicles’ performances in full downtiers/uptiers that is at +/- 1.0 BR spread, which perfectly showcases this difference in performance.

In most cases, anything below 8.3 shouldn’t be allowed to spawn as they lack critical features that are present in top tier.

Just send em early to the garage, it works :)

At least for air rb, it is 99.9% the situation where it is multiple lvl1-10 players with one in a premium jet and the others in reserves.

I would say that they have no clue what they are doing.

Though regardless of what they are thinking, im leaving that match without taking off.

Thats also griefing and its intentional if you leave the games instant, which also should be punished harder

Competitive integrity of the match has already been ruined by several griefers, so I don’t see why leaving at that point should be punished. You want your games to be fair from the start, right ?

If more people did what he does Gaijin might actually do something about that.

You want to punish players who skip the battle because of PL/ping, too?

NO, I’ve been kicked out because of packet loss or lag spikes, That is literally punishing people because they have inferior hardware or can’t wire ethernet to their room…

Oh stop. It is not.

Leaving because your team is deliberately starting with a huge handicap - and has no intention of winning - is not griefing.

Get a grip.

Most people are are describing this(pictures). Theres nothing wrong with wanting to get god mode. But within ARB there isnt a way to do that Solo.
That means, more often than not, its low level/new players trolling/“having fun”
Which in turn ruins the match for your team in 99.99% of cases.
So, this does mean they are actively griefing the game, even if theyre having fun.

IMO in ground, it makes way more sense. In air, it can actively ruin games that you COULDVE won but CANT win because 3 people decided flying an I-16 would be fun.

This game was last night. Like, this is genuinely a nightmare. No player should have to go on and make up for the loss of 4 players on their team because they decided to kill each other in the first 2 minutes.
I dont have the match end for this. But it was an 8 or 9 kill game.

There is.
You’re actively and deliberately putting your team at a disadvantage, which is something that people didn’t sign up for when clicking of that game search button.

God Mode is one of the most absurd achievements in the history of competitive PvP.

The fact that it gives extra SL is egregious as its promoting desperate non premium SL-drained players to use dumb tactics for a bit of chump change.

AFAIK it gives like what, 50k SL?

Assuming thats right it makes me all the more mad.

Because if person played the games it took them to get god mode normally, they would more likely than not end up with more than 50k SL, since their undertiered rank I vehicle wouldnt get constantly obliterated by way superior vehicles.

Getting a god mode in air battle is semi impossible, especially when you’re bringing props to fight against jet aircraft
