can win a game on a good team while playing poorly and you can lose
a game playing well on a weak team. Both can distort you overall
score/rating and are not accurate measures . Now , my question is
with the match making and the tiers assigned or used in a game .
For example when I use a tier 5 tank, I am matched with tier 4, 5
and 6 usually with much the same skills. The game is fair and
even . The variety of skills are reasonable . But some thing
happens that distorts this situation as I go to higher tiers.
If I play a tier 7 tank I am playing against tier 7 , 8 and 9 Tanks
with players with 3 or more skills. My tank is totally ineffective
, both offensively and defensively . I am not sure I see the value
of this consistently unfair matching or the reason for it.
. I think it is counter productive for the new player. It
does not lead to an evolution growth of skills through experience
as you are always out played , by vastly better tanks and
players. It is like me playing one on one basketball
with Micheal Jorden . I am not going to get better . I will merely
develop a much deeper appreciation for what a super athlete he
is and not being able to even slightly compete walk away
discouraged. ( And the fact that he does it with grace and ease
makes me feel worse). Why can't the game
composition be 2 tiers wide and the number of skill/perks totals
be some what even or close. The Higher tier tanks
with more than average skill/perks have significant advantage
against noobs in lower tiers with no or few skills. I do not
like being match against them. The current systems looks
to me to be clearly unbalanced to a degree that it is very
discouraging for the new player. I will tell you another
thing , in a tier 7, 8, and 9 game the guys playing tier 9 look for
the lower tier tanks to destroy first just to run up points and
scores. The tier 9 players on my team do not seam to take defensive
stances but go into this score run up mode also. It is if the
lower tier noob tankers are the targets . My tier 7 tank is no use
against a single tier 9 , let alone two or three of them . I
welcome debate on this . And would like to hear from anyone
that can shed light on this agreeing or disagreeing. If I am
wrong -pls tell me.
KRZYBooP: Welcome to World of Tanks! HEREis an article with more information on the
many changes of MM since the start of the Game. Or you can watch
the video here---v Due to the way our economy works
currently you have just as much chance to see a player with more
than one crew skill in all tiers. Stronghold battles happen at Tier
6 so some players have those tanks fully kitted out including the
bonds consumables that give crew fully trained skills for one
battle. Tier 8 also offers some of the best profits per credits
spent so there are players that fully kit out those tanks. Crew
skills are helpful but the basics of blocking shots, not being seen
when firing, and when to disengage to flank the enemy are all more
important in my opinion than fully perked crew. I play demo
accounts with fully trained crew and while they do offer a little
help, they don't stop four people from firing at you from across
the map and remaining unseen. Depending on your tank
and what Tank you are firing upon starts to get more important in
tiers 7,8,and 9. Tiers 1-4 are mostly light and mediums with a few
heavies but mostly everything can be penned reliably from a wider
range of angles. This starts to narrow the more you go up in the
tree and requires some additional knowledge on where to shoot what
tank. A resource to check out is Tanks.gg. There you can pick a
tank select the live option then select the tank firing at it to
see the angles of pen. in action. Currently the Match
Maker doesn't take into account Player or Crew skills when going
into battle in the interest of keeping the battles "Random." The
3/5/7 MM is part of a template system that I feel was brought into
the game to address the issue of being the only Tier 5 in a Tier 7
battle. This way the lowest tier players can pen about 80% of the
enemy team. The downside being that you will get to be top tier as
often which is something our Developers are aware of and looking to
address as explained in the video above.
