Now a well coordinated platoon of three tanks can make or break a battle.

Platoons of five will be way to dominant in the random battles.

Five arty platoons will destroy gameplay faster than you can blink.

Wolfpacs of five dominate to hard.

The team that wins is usually the team with the best communication.
I've seen teams win against insane odds because they communicated and the enemy not.

The moment one third of a team communicates their attacks well and enemy not they are unstoppable.

If you want to play bigger platoons get four of your friends and play TC.

Imagine how that would fuck up mm even more. 2 platoons with 10is7 on 1 team.

MM is already broken putting all platoons on one side and no platoons on the other.
I've seen that a lot.

If you want to play with more mates just go play company battles.

these 5 tanks platoons will be the kid of tank company and regular platoons.
yet no match making system to support such child.

So you are OK with 6 player platoons with no restrictions but not 5 player platoons with restrictions and balancing?

We had 6 player platoons going last night with remarkable reliability.

How many players where online? Does it also work with a lot of players online? Aren't the chances that you are on the same team when you enter the same game 50:50?

Yeah, can't wait for 5 of you "buy to win" Type59. No thank you. If you want more win just pay more.

Filters can be placed on the platoon size. For example:

3 Max players in tier 10 tanks.
4 Max players in tier 9 tanks.
Anything below that can be 5.

What do you think?

EDIT: Add some filters for arties as well.

Hm no, i dont want to see platoons for 5 in random games.
Even the 3-people-platoons are sometimes annoying, even more if there is a clan online that tries to click at the same time -> 6 people within one battle

ye imagine 5 bat chat platoon.

It works at any time no matter how many are online and thanks the matchmaker liking to put platoons on one team then you get the same team more than half the time.

There is no logic behind WG not making 5 man platoons official.
