Knockdowns and damage give RP in ranked

I think the ranking system would be much more accurate if you received RP for knocking enemies, since you can't always rely on teammates to help you with wiping a squad, and can almost never rely on ...

@E9ine_AC Im not really asking for much here E there are so many ways to reward damage in this game I'm tired of carrying teams and not getting rewarded for it. I would take just 10 RP for leading my team in damage and making top 5, this is just an example I will take just about anything it's ridiculous. 96 percent is plat or lower and yet that is 2/3 of the ranks, so you get more diamonds that's it because like you said diamond 3 is the challenge, you really think many players are gonna be able to make it past that? I don't even know if I can make it past that and I can hit diamond 3. The problem is I am too worn out to try and I don't have much time left in the season. Also dude lower ranks are inflated with pred, master, diamond, and even plat players smurf to get easier matches. Ball just said earlier that he made 3 accounts to diamond 4 so he could get his buddy there. You know he's not the only one. Seriously dude you may get a handful more in masters but I doubt that. Most agree this ranking system is flawed and should be changed. You like it. Cool. But is it really more skill or is it grind?

@Ironflower196 I mean you have some best people in the world who bring in views of the game rocking 1k to 10k viewers each person. These are players from season 1 preds who ive not seen anyhow who complains or dislikes the rank system. I watch a lot of them and its not something i can say has came up in discussion.

So in my eyes as a company would most likely see what the top dogs around the world think or dislike. If they dont have issues then the company thinks ok this system is fine our top players dont say nothing or dislike it.

So I feel until they see some of the top players in bulk complaining how the system works i dont feel they would change things. I dont know what everyones fixation on doing damage is.

I go into games yelling lerrrroooyyy efffin jennnkinsss I dont care if i do 0 damage or 4k im playing to have fun in a competitive way doing dumb things cause its fun. RP should be something that is earned from killing and assist imo. You know how many games ive done even over 2k damage with 0 kills? I laughed because its funny. I think i played with darth other day and did like 1200 with no kills. We laughed. hahaha

    @E9ine_ACThose are top guys and don't have the same issues that some of us have as far as time goes. I'm not looking to be a pred here top 500 is way outside my skill range, masters probably is too but I would like a chance to compete for it. I feel I am not being rewarded enough for consistently being the best player on my team. Damage is an indicator of someone who is putting in work and not hiding like a lot of teammates I get. I trying to play with my team as much as possible but it feels like they can barely shoot a gun sometimes. I just want a small reward for being the best on my team
    Kills and damage don't always tell the story but they are strong indicators. I know what you mean I have had games like that too in fact I had a game where I ran the wingman and Mozambique for fun got 2k damage and 1 kill my other teammates both had just under 1k but one had 7 kills the other had 3 it was funny I laughed about it with the friend I played with but in ranked I feel I should be rewarded more for consistently being better than my teammates, I know I already am because I'm moving up but I would like to move up faster.
