Still a relatively new, clueless, and a tiny bit frustrated player, can someone please explain to me what the point of BR is if my 6.7, 8.3 and 9.3 lineups constantly keep fighting vehicles that are at least 0.7, but usually an entire BR higher? I don’t understand how it’s possible for a game that supposedly has ~100k active players every single day, that the matchmaker struggles to find 30 players with lineups that are within 0.3-0.7 BR of each other and has to supplement by making each team have players with lineups that are, in some cases, vastly superior compared to the rest of the lobby. Is it because gaijin doesn’t care about Ground RB and don’t want to update the BR ratings, or is it impossible to simply put barriers on specific BR’s to make it not possible for them to keep constantly getting downtiered? For example, in 8.3 I usually play Germany with friends, and in every single game, we keep facing downtiered Soviet tanks, or their export variants. Personally it makes the game incredibly boring when half, or more than half of my team dies once or twice and leaves a couple of minutes into the match, leaving the rest of the team at a disadvantage. Even with the new random vehicle lineups at 9.3 and above, I have noticed that people leave after 1 death regardless of being provided with an almost full lineup, with my 10.7 matches usually being decided within the first 3-4 minutes, it’s not fun to be on the winning or losing end at that point, spawn camping or being spawn camped.
