Apparently, WG removed the hard cap of 5 DDs per side.

Next level; 7 DDs 4 CVs and 1 BB/side...Hi5 WG!

 

 

I´d say it is the other way around ... a good portion of the battleships are queing up for the Grand Battles and thus the MM has to fill the void somehow with more readily available ships and classes.

There was a hard cap of 5 dds per side and MM can't fill in the gaps (with more DDs) unless that hard cap is removed.

I doubt we ever had a hardcap for that. As far as we know, we have a soft cap of 4 DD. And soft caps get removed when someone is waiting too long for a battle.

Matchmaker

In response to numerous requests from players, the forthcoming Update will introduce a "soft" limit on the number of destroyers in Random Battles to a maximum of four per team. The rule will be triggered if matchmaking for a battle takes less than three minutes for the first player in the queue for that battle. If the timer passes that point, the "old" matchmaking rules will apply.

Thx for the info. That update is almost three years old. Maybe 5 dds per side was before that update and they changed it to 4 dds soft cap with the update.

WG.. seems every Ranked I play(at least 75%), I receive a team of [edited].. I think maybe you are calling me a 'tard on a low down? Which is fine, I accept that.. but how about you then let me fight OTHER [edited]!? Not genius, prodigy kids? 
2 Yorck's on my team VS 2 Atlanta on theirs. Its an easy fix, WG, easy fix.. DON'T LET SAME SHIPS BE ON SAME TEAM!! I don't care how fkin long I gotta wait for the match!!!! 


Edit: you ****'s 

Eh, according to your stats you're probably one of the main reasons why your teams are not performing well (plus you're 1 out of 7 ships in the team).

I know him, he's not a bad player.

 

I've yet to see someone posting the very same "unbalanced" team composition but with the purple players in YOUR team and complain about it, though. Because it happens. But those are fine, apparently.

Of course. Winning is because of my performance. Losing is because of my team's terrible performance.

Heres an idea! lets put the 44% with their GJ.Merkels, stock yugumos and Z-44s vs kots participants with their Yolo Emilios, ZF-6s and Mogadors and see what happens.

 

OH WAIT.

 

ranked is an absolute :etc_swear:show. Have to play tryhard-carry ships to save star and not fun ones cause these damn summerchilds.

I just lost around 10 battles in a row. I was 1st in maybe 8(thus saving the disgusting star).
TEN BATTLES in a row. I lost another 8-9 yesterday. I don't look nor care about stats. I know the games are not lost cus any of my mistakes(80% of time).

I just want to get the German General-Admiral flag(cus I already got no1 bronze, but it wasn't the right season/not sure why do they put the damn flag in the showcase if u cant win her yet), then I'm uninstalling this piece of crap.

Saving a star does not necessarily mean you played well.

Maybe so.. but I did. I know those 3-4 maps by heart, know where to go, where will they go.. I wont justify myself to you. I KNOW that 80% of games are not my fault(what so ever).
On few occasions the imbeciles literally stood on the empty side of the map, doing nothing. On other, they would just float beside a empty enemy cap.. I understand that noobs/specials gotta play Ranked. What I fail to  understand, is WHY must they always be on my team.

True, many players keep their stars just because they're sitting in the distance trying to farm as much damage as possible.  Or the last resort act of ramming....

You are not 1st place just cus you deal most dmg. You gotta cap, defend, AND deal dmg(at least in Ranked).

I wonder when people realize that their computer has a print screen function and that they do not need to torture other people with unfocussed and aslant pictures of their screen...
