G'day,

 

I want to know why recon missions are not available except at certain times that rule out a lot of gameplay on the HK or ANZ servers?   Don't we deserve a real say on what maps come into play or as usual does wargaming just ignore Asia as an inconvenience.   It seems with the times available that is the case.

Because (a) there isn't enough people to support a full game consistently other than at peak and (b) there have been in the past (and most likely will always be ) a group of people who will abuse that and rig games for their own interests.

 

NA server also has a ceasefire as well, since their population is also not that large.

The mode is active in peak times. So that's most users "having a real say". As per above it's not viable to run it 24/7.

Its WG.  They are interested in your cash - not you.

Funny. Nobody's forced to play. So people wouldn't pay cash if they didn't want to.

[edited] has happened to recon mode? the last few day every single game as been +2mm. But I swear i used to get a lot of same tier 8 mm in the past. 
e.g. today had 10 battle in a tier8 EVERY single one was +2mm, it makes it so much harder to be in top12 when constantly facing 279e ETC

reason (b) is likely the primary driver. There has been a consistent group who take advantage of low pop times.

Given it counts for MOE I suspect that adds to the issue, low participation if people believe it will harm MOE for a tank, recon games are even less predictable for landslide fast games, which can often be bad for MOE grinding.

Don't worry. Just play tier 10 and you'll almost certainly only get 0mm i.e. not -2mm.

 

i.e. basically there seem to be masses playing tier 10 - I suspect because it's an easier/cheaper way to grind, and a much smaller number playing other tiers so when you play another tier you get put into one of the few -2mm battles.
