I'm taking 6.0 up against 6.7, and it seems constant.

[Silkmonger]

I've been trying to spade my 6.0 German tanks. I just hit player lvl 100 this month, and so far as I can tell, I'm only getting 6.7 and 7.0 matches. Is this something I just need to get used to?

[Silkmonger]

Just did another 7.0 match. I have 4 6.0 tanks and 3 more lesser BR tanks, and I'm up-tiered every match today.

If I take my US tanks, I'm getting the same effect. If I am trying to spade my 5.3 sherman, I'm up against Tiger II P's. What am I doing that is so wrong?

[Silkmonger]

and another 7.0. These are in a row. If I drive 5.3 US, I'm up against 6.3 German or Russian. If I drive 6.0 German, I'm up against 7.0 Russian and US. Are the lvl 100 players just up against this from now on?

[Silkmonger]

I can do 2 more tonight. Just finished another 7.0 match with my 6.0 German tanks. We will see...

[Silkmonger]

Both of this evening's matches were still up-tiered, though one was only 6.7... This is making it really tough to spade tanks.

1st off, congrats on lvl 100!

2nd, yes, get used to it. Once you go above 5.7, it's up-tier city. Sorry.

Finally, wait 'till you get to 7.0 and start seeing rocket tanks. That's when the real fun begins.

Furthermore,You're level 100.Idk how it is in tanks, but in planes,once I hit lvl 100,I get uptiered at least 70% of the time,no matter WHAT Tier/rating I'm flying.Doesn't matter

[Silkmonger]

another 6.7 match, just now. Donny: What I don't understand is this: If I play 6.0 US, I'm fighting against 7.0 German or Russian. How is it I'm never in 6.0 German or Russian to fight 6.0 enemy, much less 5.0?

That's not how the Matchmaking system Works =)
You can be brought up or down by around 1.0 br and its influenced by many things, Population of the servers is the largest one, expect to be up tiered alot of there's less than 20.000 people online especially if you're not joining games that are already in progress. The level system is purely for asthetics, it has nothing to do with what BR you're placed in

As with you being Uptiered Silk, I wish ya the best =)

[Silkmonger]

I also have the M4A3 (76) W tank with the US. I have an entire lineup where that is my high BR (5.3), and every time I play it, I'm at least fighting Tigers, if not Tiger II P's! Now, if someone takes a Tiger II P out (6.3!) how is it they have a match with me driving 5.3, but I can't take out 6.0 Germans and find any lower BR's to fight with?

Ah! I have finally, since I started watching yesterday, seen a match in my 5.3 US that was only 5.7. Almost (by their estimation) had a fair fight on my 2nd day of watching.

The odder bit is that M4A3(76)W being 5.3, though. That is the same rating they give the SU-85, the KV-85, and the T34-85. I think all 3 of those are easier to kill with than the sherman.

[Lt_FellaWhite]

I know this probably sounds stupid, but play 8.0 and then you don't have to worry about getting upteired

[Silkmonger]

Lt: I tend to want to spade each tank as I can unlock it, and unlock all of a given battle rating from lowest to highest. With my Germans, I'm up to 6.0 (all my lower German tanks are spaded) The real pain from being constantly uptiered is that I frequently can't overcome the difference in hardware to have success in the match, and I'm frequently on a whole team of mostly lesser vehicles, so my team crumbles around me.

Congrats on lvl 100 Silk. As for your issue, I don't know because basically I'm an idiot

You forgot the word "suppose" .... we think we know how MM is working because of what gaijin tell us..

BUT...

What is gaijin NOT telling us about MM ???

I have noticed this before

Come to think of it .. ever since i hit level 100 my game play is f...ed up ,
getting uptiered almost every round , can't get kills as easy and as much as before i hit level 100..etc etc.

Maybe this is put in the game to make it more difficult on level 100 players and to make them not to OP against low levels ??

[Silkmonger]

It was like a fever broke, yesterday. After I-don't-know-how-many games in a row of being the lowest teir of every game, it finally started giving me the now-or-then game of even tier. That was about as much fun as having someone stand on my fingers, while it lasted, though!
