Ranked System Has its Pluses and minuses
I do like the RP system where you are rewarded for being consistent and can make high ranks through surviving and getting kills instead of like other games having to do better than your teammates and everyone else which causes divides in team play and a lot more kill chasing than what already is in apex. But I’m sick and tired of playing in my ASSIGNED rank and seeing someone in my same rank having banners and stickers with insane stat lines and extremely high ranks. It makes it very hard to play for someone who is mid gold level to be going up against master players who are stuck in bronze because they’re going up against other master players who are also stuck in bronze. It makes it way more difficult for them to clear out the bronze ranks for people of lesser skill, and extremely difficult for newcomers who literally want to delete the game after getting a arc star stuck to them and domed before they even grab a gun. I think you should still have your ranks and rp but go back to placement games before the initial rank is assigned so that they can avoid the lower ranked players. It can be annoying having to play a mandatory number of games before your even ranked but I find it way less annoying to play 10 games with an apex predator hunting people down in the lobby than 40 plus games with masters and diamonds all trying to simply move along to their proper ranks.
