people who down rank themselves

[baconboy]

for some reason every game im in the enemy team has 5 people who have 5 other countries maxed out and yet they are in a rank 3 server that im playing in
this is not fair due to them having higher rank tanks
anyone else having this problem as well?

Its not working this way. You have BR +-1 So even a fully maxed out Player can play different BR Setups and Ranks. As you will always get +-1BR Max.

Let us say my Tank has a BR of 5 i could only see tanks of BR 4-6.
And yeah maxing out or getting up in a techtree doesnt matter as different BR steps have different gamestyles. And having a varity of setups is normal.

Matchmaking doesn't work like this, it's matched based on vehicle battle rating. Make sure you form a consistent lineup of vehicles all with the same battle ratings and from there you can see a 1.0+/- spread based off your highest BR. So if your highest is 5.0, you can see 4.0 tanks minimum and 6.0 tanks maximum, and everything inbetween.

ok so what about the same people who bring in a rank 7 tank in a rank 5 BR servers?
what do you half to say about that?

Its not possible. Ranks are for youre own fun and Techtree Researches. BR is what counts. SO when youre BR is 5 you can only see BR 4-6 Vehicles. IF your BR is 8 only BR 7-9. You cant see a BR 7 tank as BR 5...its Imposible. Otherwise. Just send the Replay link and ill watch the game myself :-).

Do you understand the difference between rank and BR?

Matchmaking does not care about rank. BR is what determines what vehicles you can face. Rank is largely to do with research efficiency... not performance or capabilities in the game.

Either replay or BS

A player cannot "down rank" There are no player ranks in WT. Player levels only reflect their activity length not their skill. Vehicles have tiers and BR and they always fight +- 1 BR

I understand your feelings but if they enjoy playing ww2...
A team is composed by 10+person's equally or even lower skill than you

Yes, what you are describing is >possible<, but not for the reasons you're insisting upon.

A Type 16 / Type 93 (T7, 9.0) can face [Insert any Tier 5, 8.0 here].

Realize that this is the biggest cherry-pick of an example, ever: Most typically, Tier 5 ends at 7.7 for most nations, and Tier 7 starts with 9.7's. AFAIK, there are only two 9.0 T7's in the entire game, listed above. They belong to Japan, a nation with one of, if not -the- most spartan ground forces trees, for how long it's been in the game.

And: Although being Tier 7, and 9.0.... Reserve vehicles could sneeze on either of them and get a kill. They only have ~25mm armor.
