Knockdowns and damage give RP in ranked

@E9ine_ACNah bro if you're consistently knocking 2 of the 3 enemies and your team is so incompetent that they can't even knock one guy and he ends up killing you, that is unbearably frustrating. If you disagree because you think rewarding damage and knockdowns would make the ranks less accurate, it wouldn't, because with everyone benefiting from it, it would balance it out. To be honest I think it's absurd that damage isn't rewarded in any way. With higher buy-in costs for higher ranks, those kills that your teammates are stealing can cause you to lose RP very easily. Ranks would actually be much more accurate because heavy hitters who pull more than their own weight would actually be getting the RP that they deserve, not getting shafted because someone is hammerpoint stealing their kills or unable to handle killing their own guy. Like I said, if they limit the damage RP bonus for a single enemy, then range camping would not be a viable way to cheese RP, and if they increase the rank ceiling accordingly, then it would be much better than it is now.

     Thirsting takes a solid few seconds unless you're right next to them with a shotgun or SMG, also greatly depending on their knockdown shield level if you're more than 10m away from them, then you have to reload and shield swap, potentially still having less health, and a lower level shield if the guy you killed had a lower level shield, and like I said you can't shield swap at any range and can't pop a battery with how quickly and safely all of those legends that I listed can push you, so trying to finishing kills is often more likely to get you killed by the guy your incompetent teammates failed to knock. Meanwhile they're getting way more RP than you are for doing 500 damage with a hammerpointed mozambique, while you have 3k damage and are cracking everyone's shields. It's stupid.

     There's no good reason that anyone here has given me not to change it, so long as they implement the range restrictions and max damage per enemy restrictions (probably around twice their shield and health as it's rare you get to pop 2 Phoenix kits, or 2 shield batteries and 2 medkits before a fight ends). Bottom line is that if you are leaving teammates in the dust with your damage and they're still getting much more RP than you, just for stealing your kills, (it wouldn't feel like stealing if damage was rewarded) something is definitely wrong with the RP distribution.

@afishthatvapes Can you @ the person you're talking to just so they're aware.

Doesn't matter if it's diminishing returns as that wouldn't address the problem.

You just get the initial main RP from one person then go onto the next or move on to another team. As i've already said, ranged engagements are less risky than CQC so ANYTHING that's RP just for damage that isn't connected to kills will be farmed by snipers. 

I have a whole list of things they could do to improve ranked but none of them are RP for damage. Some of them just off the top of my head...

1. Remove rank split so it's not as much of a rushed grind. That way everyone has a chance regardless of personal circumstances and time available to play.

2. Put predator back in a higher RP cost to other tiers and not determined by time played being top 750 overall RP for each platform per split. You could do this by removing masters (probably better as there aren't enough players at that level) or make it a higher RP cost than masters which is fine if they implement 5 too. Those that have families and work full time but are skilled can still obtain it unlike now where it favours streamers and unemployed just for engagement.

3. End of season everyone only drops one tier. Gives each person more chance to improve and climb the following season and removes preds being put back to bronze lobbies if they don't play a season.

4. Give a server selector for ranked so we don't have random connections.

5. Increase the kill cap to 10 or just remove it so people can climb to their respective ranks faster.
