Ranked is sorta broken.
So my team mates got killed and it became 3 vs 1. I almost took at the last guy, but alas i could only knockdown two before i was taken out. I almost ended an entire team on my own, but didnt end up with any kills so i received a -12 for my match. Now how in the bleepity bleep is that fair. Knockdowns should absolutely count for something in this game. If you dont want to make them count for points and experience ok. I think your a selfish * for thinking so but whatevs. They should however remove some of the cost of a ranked match. When you knock down an opponent it was you winning against them. You shouldn't need the entire team to die for that accomplishment to mean anything. I could do absolutely Jack * and wait for my teammates or other teams to knock a players health down to almost 0 and finish them off stealing the kill and receiving 10 points. Seems wrong that this is a possibility, but being rewarded for knockdowns isn't. Getting killed by 3rd party attacks is pretty much the bread and butter of this game. I am actually all for reducing the noise range of gun fire so people cant 3rd party so much. Its a cheap tactic to be sure. Part of battle royals, yes, but you people over do it and you know it. Bottom line though, getting a knockdown in ranked should count for points off your negative. I'm not saying that it should ever add positive points over all though. It should only work toward reducing a negative end result. So if you get -12 points for the match cost a knockdown will reduce it by maybe 2 per knock down. I think getting 2 knock downs and having -8 is much more fair than making it like it never happened. If you get your score to 0 or positive numbers then the knockdowns shouldn't add to the score. To be fair to everyone that is wrong and doesn't agree with this idea. Seems like a good compromise cause if you ask me it should count for positive points. So Respawn please fix this silliness and make knockdowns worthwhile. To all who disagree its sad that I have to let you know that you are wrong, but you are. Respawn if you don't agree you are also wrong and should just do it anyway cause your company has been kinda declining over the years and some new insight might help you guys out.
