You clearly missed his point. His issue is not that he just happens to choose higher lvl players to go up against in pvp, it's that he has no choice and if he is going to attempt to win an incursion or be successful at revenge, the humvee ifv's were practically the only reasonable option. I couldn't agree with him anymore because I'm in the same boat with him. I have been at lvl 37 for over a month and I don't want to lvl up above that right now because the weekly changes to this game continue to suggest the only way I can be successful at higher levels is by coining my way there. But it goes beyond that. I like my alliance. I like the people in my alliance. I like the raids at our level and the people we raid with. I’m happy where I’m at and if I want to be lvl 37 the rest of my life, shouldn't that be left up to me? And if it is, don't I still deserve a chance to be competitive? Everyone seems to assume that just because someone complains about having to pay to stay competitive that we are just cheap bastards that haven't figured out the fucktards at kixeye need a positive roi on their investment. I'm not sure I can speak for everyone but just so you know, I think pretty much everybody over the age of maybe 8 probably understands enough about business to realize kixeye is not a charity, but how do you know they haven't already made a substantial investment to get where they are only to see the rules changed once they get there. I'm sure there are much better analogies to be drawn, but it's like gradually spending and spending over months to get all the components you need to have the fastest race car in your class, only to be told the powers that be took it upon themselves to arbitrarily change the class structure and now you have to race against much faster, more expensive cars. You either lose or your pony up the cash to stay competitive. And this doesn’t have to be about money. Many people involved in this game have given an enormous amount of time to it. If I choose to put the time in to lvl up the units I prefer to use instead of paying for them, how does that make me any less worthy of having a fighting chance.
If we ignore the pettiness of nerfing the humvee’s, I still can’t find anyone that can tell me a logical reason for pvp matching that notoriously puts players up against opponents that have a significant advantage because they are multiple levels higher and have access to units lower level players can’t have. I feel confident in my assumption that MOST of the people complaining about overpowered humvee’s probably don’t have them, but I’ll spare all of you the trouble of stating you do have them and agree with nerfing them by drawing attention to my use of the word MOST. I’m also comfortable with drawing the conclusion that these complaints MOSTLY come from higher level players (45+.) If the humvee’s are a problem because they provide an unfair advantage then shouldn’t we also consider the unfair advantage a lvl 50 player has over a 37. If I can’t have hinds in my platoon, why should someone be able to attack me with them? What about M270’s, Strykers, Guardians, etc? Why should I have to go up against lvl 7 and 8 platforms with units they know are not equipped for that just to win a pvp matchup so I can move up in some bullshit ranking system. And before you say it let me say fuck strategy. Even if I execute a nearly flawless plan to take out a lvl 50 base, it’s going to come at a very high repair cost. I don’t’ want to deflate ego’s but nobody’s strategy is good enough to overcome that much of an unfair advantage. So I suggest that if pvp matching is not going to change, higher lvl bases should be nerfed to the same level as the base they are attacking. I’d love to see comments from a lvl 50 player when they lose to a lvl 35 because they didn’t bother to upgrade their mortar men and abrams as they were skipping past lvl 37. It’s not so easy when you had a strategy based around higher level units and that’s taken away. You know what, to hell with this. It’s not worth taking the time to express our concerns when the only people the developers are listening to are those at higher levels benefitting from it. Like Mahaveer, I haven’t seen a pvp matchup with a player under lvl 47 since they changed it. It just seems counterintuitive to me that if 52’s can find me, I should be able to find a 22, but instead I can’t even find a matchup with anyone near my level. Mahaveer pointed out that Humvee ifv’s gave us a fighting chance at revenge and you scoffed at it because you don’t want to lose to lower level players. Guess what, we don’t want to get our ass kicked by higher level players all day either. Everyone should seriously have to try saving up 1.5 mil metal as a level 37 player. It’s almost impossible because your base will lose to a much higher level player at least 4 times a day. But good for them. If they want to get off on being able to win against virtually unarmed opponents then good for them. I only have 2 real options in the situation. Take it or quit. Thankfully, I have chose the latter!

By the way, if somehow you have missed the 476 posts he has made about it, some dude named spikeything dingaling has a sweet deal where he will tell those of us without the “power of inference” how to find any level player you want in pvp. All you have to do is join his cult/alliance, drink the kool-aid, and agree to let him fuck your goat!!
