This generally is always the same argument, but the fact is one person cant speak for the whole community.


Indeed there are many that wouldn't mind waiting longer for a match, but there are also those console players that want quick games. There are also those on Australian / Asian prime times that dont have the luxury of the wider population EU / US prime times offer. There are countless examples of people who dont want the consequences of expanding BRs or reducing the spread that many dont consider.



People always assume one thing is separate from the other. Reducing the BR spread is exactly the same thing as expanding the BR spread. All you are in effect doing is making the matchmakers options smaller and smaller in terms of the vehicles it can put into a single match and the players it can get into a game.


A BR 15.0 is literally inconceivable right now, as is a 0.7 spread. We just moved to 10.7 and even 11.0 is not even possible at this moment. Let alone 15.0.

Because for ever player that chooses a 0.7 spread, they would be damaging the 1.0 spread matchmaking regardless at the same time. So yes, its not possible to implement.



You might, but as I said above, you are not every console player


Even if this whole forum agreed on something, its still not even a majority of the playerbase.


0.7 spread is also not something thats possible to implement without serious long term harm for the game.





Indead they have a separate server available too them, but due to player numbers during that time zone, they often have to resort to the other servers too. So its not a valid reason.


The game as a whole cannot support 0.7. Its not about any 1 server.



What people want and what's actually realistically possible are often two separate things.



Thats because that is actually expanding the roster and number of vehicles available for the matchmaker to use that actually leads to things to more choices for the matchmaker and thus over time allows us to expand the top BRs.


People cant make the separation the Varity is not about unique vehicles. As far as the MM is concerned, an Italian Sherman is different to a US one and the 2 are 2 different variety's of vehicles the MM can use.
