Rank Issues

Question

First off, when spectating your teammates in ranked after dying, or when spectating enemy players when your whole team dies, the HUD disappears for things such as crafting materials, kills, assists, teams left, and even what rank that player is.

Secondly, players already found an exploit of how to get into ranked with a below level account:

A level 42 who was my random teammate:

A level 25 player who appeared to be using cheats alongside two others, (got knocked by the Wattson, 3rd died to the level 25), (notice how it doesn't show its in ranked at the top right? Well it is in ranked).

Best that I can do to prove that it was indeed in ranked:

I also went to check if somehow Respawn had reverted the level requirement back to level 20, and found that this wasn't the case:

@Midnight9746 They removed the ranked emblems because they know it no longer depicts any skills and they don't want you to assume skill based on something that they removed. Sorry to say your rank image nowadays will forever be participation score, how much time spent in the ranked matchmaking, so depicting real skill on that, not gonna do much....

This game company has really become oblivious and let it deterioate faster than anyone ever could have anticipated and it is really sad to see. This was, and I emphasize WAS, my favorite game but they went out of their way as many games do nowadays to completely change agenda and basicly create a new game under the name of something else. Expecting players/customers because we are your customers EA/Respawn, to put up with our "Iphone" suddenly becoming a "Xiaomi" and still pay the premium prices of an Iphone but receive some garbage budget thing not entirely working from china. Well yea you better take this serious EA/Respawn you are losing things and you are losing fast.

@drevinum9&nbsp;It makes sense that we don't see rank badges anymore but we need to STILL be able to see that its a ranked match for reasons like this one... you would have zero clue that it was a ranked match if I didn't provide the kill feed with the rank badge above it. Also, why remove things like squads left, damage, and kills?Edited: I only ever play rank. This is because teammates in pubs are more worthless than teammates in ranked, and mixtape isn't really worth my time. That being said, I saw another one:Showing that my last match was indeed a ranked match, although clubs only record top 5's or wins:

@Midnight9746 Well it might also be the case they don't want you to know how many are left anymore to deal with the rat problem or people just refusing to engage a single fight, I don't know but it is surely intended. Anything that seem to make the game worse is intended nowadays.

@Midnight9746 If you didnt know the pubs and ranked share the same matchmaking systems now, so you know ranked is not ranked anymore. The rank image you see are just some sense of time spent in that particular matchmaking queue, nothing else and they also said so themselves in their posts. You don't really need to know that you are in ranked queue, by the way you might be able to go back to pubs now since it is the same system.
