Team Balance?

I’ve played about fifty games of Conquest and others.

My team has won about four of them. 
What gives EA?

  • It's possible you've been very unlucky, but my guess also includes that what should 'average out' doesn't because EA/DICE don't attempt to make matches 'fair' with their team balancing.

    They patented a win-loss sequence retention algorithm some years ago and I suspect they still use it.

    They believe players stay in game longer if they get a win every now and again even if that is a complete one-sided land-slide.

    This can have the result of skewing what should on average be 50:50 win:lose results.

    Another thing that could be skewing the average is a bad method of calculating skill. I have lots of time to play lately so I am already rank 130, but skill-wise I am just slightly above-average really. In some small modes I often get put in squads with very low ranking players and I assume it's because the 'skill' calculation is weighting my rank way too heavily and ignoring my stats because it much more complex to use them.

    Another thing is there are many high ranking players that have gotten there using bot farms and in real games they are useless, so the skill calculation is weighting them wrongly within the team.

    Another thing is there are many players doing challenges and are too selfish to wait until their team is doing well and doesn't need their help to win.

    I'll be honest, even in my beloved BF1 the team balancing was often horrible and EA/DICE have clearly not learned anything in the last 10 years because there are so many examples of design refinements that they haven't even carried forward never mind improved on.

  • Clearly, team balance in BF6 is a pure nightmare. 

    BF1 and BF5 : my win/lose ratio was 65 to 70% (Playing in squad and playing attack the obj) 

    On BF6 only 42% of W/L ratio, and some days my ratio ts 13%... Losing like 9 games on 10... VERY FRUSTATING.

    I Don't know how the balance are making between the game, but clearly it's not an advantage of the hardcore players. So please adjust, or more simple : SERVERS BROWSER (Working for the last  20 years, so I guess it could be working few years more) 

    BF6 seems to be only here for buying season pass and skins... But for me, I don't spent an additional $1 until my W/L ratio was >50%. Sorry but I don't buy a game to carry new players. 

     

  • Same here. 

    I've won very few matches of conquest, and I'm rank 70. 

    It's my main game mode. It's mad how after years and years, it still persists, and still continues to be a massive problem, that often gets ignored until the game is in its final days.
