Community ManagerLevel 100 is a very large barrier to entry. That can take a while for those that have work or school schedules, or pose some difficulties with matchmaking wait times if you reduce the amount of players that can queue up.
The real question you should ask is at what level do you think you've gained a clear understanding of the game. A level 30 player can be more skilled at the game than level 100, time played is the only thing separated the two.
Do you think level 10 is too low? If so, what level do you realistically think it should be at?
We've seen some feedback on how Bronze players are queuing up with higher league players. Keep in mind that doesn't help the Platinum player out unless they think the Bronze player can help them avoid RP loss, but hey, maybe they also want to get into a competitive match with a friend?
Someone else mentioned in another discussion relative to this how you should only be able to queue up with someone X amount of leagues higher than you, so there is some form of league ceiling you can hit until you rank up higher.
Thoughts?
@EA_BlueberryYes level 100 is too high and I'll even admit 50 is too high but 10 is way way too low.
Any normal person wishing to get a decent rank would 'practise' at a game before jumping straight into ranked BUT at the moment there is limited penalties or restrictions so they're jumping straight in.
The problem with that is it's win/win for them (apart from stats) but unlucky for those that get paired up with them for all manner of reasons. Likewise lower ranked players are forced to play in higher tiers if their friends are ranked higher to stop cheating/stomping yet a decent premade team are essentially doing that now for the first 10/20 games until they are out of bronze.
So surely the answer is to either increase the requirement to level 25/30 whatever OR perhaps start higher levelled players in a better tier? Obviously the latter will happen come next season (depending on their rank this season) so I only see the first option as valid, becasue at the moment for anyone other than a full trio the games, players are just providing an awful experience.
Just sort out the frickin' cheating and there'd be no need for ranked requirements.
In a Platinum queue game our squad just met an Apex Predator (1041RP) using wallhack & aimbot clear as day.
His account rank? 48 ! (according to apex.tracker.gg)
Game before that?
Another cheater. Rank 117.
Examining his stats on apex.tracker.gg .....
Bangalore
Matches played: 76
Full Squad Wins: 64
Kills: 1853
Yes, you read that correctly; with Bangalore this guy has *averaged* 24.4 kills per match.
These aren't new accounts, they've been blatantly cheating for extended periods of time.
Yet you've done sweet F.A. about it.
It's honestly quite pathetic at how ineffectual you've been at countering cheaters.
