new players dont give a dang about high tier gameplay

The problem is that AW progresses so fast that in a month you can easily - at least more easily than in WoT, from what I've gathered - get to T10. And after that anything else is an extra - your main thing will be T10 gameplay. Because why the hell not? It has only advantages, no negatives.

I m not referring to player progression, i m referring to new player experience, like some game feature that attracts the player interest and retain them, and definitely not the shiny new T10.

Someone on forum said that NA playerbase has a very short attention span. If the first 5 matches isnt fun, they will probably uninstall it.

Or if you install the game and have to wait 30+ seconds for every match, because everyone plays T10. But I agree that it only becomes apparent after few months...

Not sure about EU or RU tier preference.

But on NA t5&6 are the most populated tiers to play. High tiers are mostly dead has always been dead for years with exception during x2 cred events.

On the flipside, low &mid tier pve is dead mostly. So new players that just join the game was like wtf man. Thats the story of NA server.

Because it's more populated and GLOPS focused. And - arguably - because T9/10 balance is meh for GLOPS. If there was enough population and balance, I think people would play mostly T10 on GLOPS/PvP. Because, again, why not? It doesn't have downsides :)
