gloog1962 1 Report post Posted September 8, 2022 Hello, Been playing W T since the outset. Mostly on ground but have dabbled in air battles in the past but felt it was a bit of a slog. Decided to persevere with Air Battles in Arcade. First few battles were good and making progress though felt that I was on the winning too much and getting good results felt like cheating, fine. All of a sudden I'm getting fried in every battle I play which can happen I understand. Last battle I was in my He 51-b1 (BR 1-0 Reserve) and doing not too badly then I get totalled by a guy in a Ki-43 (BR 2.0) Is that right?? Just wondering why a BR 2.0 is in a squabble with a reserve 1.0?? I don't think it should be a walk in the park by any stretch. I know this has probably been hashed out before but just curious what thoughts are??. Thanks in advance. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dodo_Dud 5,074 Report post Posted September 8, 2022 But the rules didn't change for many years. Matches are set with a span of 1.0 BR between players. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Changed that for you since he's talking about arcade, where the BR of the lineup is not always given by the highest BR plane in the player's lineup. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The player is rated for his lineup, as shown in hangar screen and in the scoreboard. I did write player and not vehicle on purpose. So what I stated is quite correct.

You can go up to to one BR above or below your ranking, however at reserve level there's nowhere to go but up. It's also the average rank of you fighters and then your team overall, so it's possible to even see some 2.,3 airplanes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
