War Thunder Matchmaking problems

Recently I have unlocked my first jets but there is a problem starting to appear, the problem is level 50’s to level 100’s. I understand that some people prefer lower ranks, but it creates such a problem for people such as me where we are getting lobbies filled with level 100’s which creates a very big skill gap and stumps progression and honestly makes the game not fun; I think that another way we can add to matchmaking is also accounting players in game levels, for those saying “get better” it is honestly impossible with these lobbies, I’m not going to spend any money to get my SL back because of Gaijins terrible matchmaking.

Just because someone is lvl 100 doesnt mean hes good at that particular BR or gamemode.

I have 2000 hours played and i reached level 100 ages ago but lvl 30 that played nothing but naval would probably mop the floor with me, should i ever decide to play naval again

Dude - seriously?

The problem you detected has nothing to do with player levels - it is just the sign that you try to play above you skill level - and skill has nothing to do with player level.

If i watch replays of my son playing jets at high & top tiers it looks often like that entire lobbies consist of rookies / players well below level 50 performing base bombing duties and very long range missile slinging.

Gaijin enabled you to progress way too fast without gaining the necessary experience - and now you try to explain this as based on player level. Gaijin’s goal with this accelerated progress at lower ranks is to get you attached and to create the illusion that this progress speed last forever. Their goal is to encourage you to spend money and usually now is the time at which you need to decide how to proceed.

No offense - but if you failed to have a positive K/D with rat planes like Merlin powered Spitfires you have to invest some time in learning how the game works - or you buy some overpriced pixels…

How about you just focus on playing instead of checking every single player in enemy team card?
