This game needs a ranking ladder BAD.

I'm tired of getting destroyed by players way above my pay grade, is this game getting a ladder? I will check back to see what is up, but for now I'm out, it's not even remotely fun as it is.

If you came here to say "get gud", my disabilities preclude that so please save your time and breath. I just want to compete with individuals in my skill range, is all I'm asking for.

  • I don't think a battle royale game should have a rating attached to it. Ratings or any form of rankings causes way more toxicity than unranked games. You lose nothing from losing games in an unranked system, but I guarantee you that putting in a rating for you will cause you to get screamed at by randoms in way more games by your teammates.

    Do like everyone else and just play the game, why do you lose to better players - aim, positioning, something else? If so, why don't you try to use the reason you lose and apply that to your next game?

    - What? Rewards are cosmetics, nothing else.

    Everyone has the same starting point, play the game and you will also reach 1k kills or whatever you want.

    Only players who aren't willing to learn are crying for a ranked system, getting destroyed by someone out of your league should not be a way for you to call out for "evening the playing-field" it should be a way for you to apply new knowledge and want to be better.

    paygrade is not ment in a litteral way as in those with more money.. ofc he means players out of his league.

    why do you lose to better players - aim, positioning, something else? If so, why don't you try to use the reason you lose and apply that to your next game?

    Thats litterally what the players out of his "pay grade" have done for the last 10 years playing 16hours a day. Ofcourse he can become a better player, but realistically you cant expect any "casual player" that maybe plays 2 hours a day to have a realistic shot at beating a squad of top 1% players. Ultimately people play a game to have fun, and it is not fun if your just not so good at a game to get destroyed over and over without feeling that you ever have a chance.

    there are many different ways to implement MMR, you can make it hidden so teammates dont start screaming more than they do now cause they will see some mmr number go down after loosing. you can choose to make very broad mmr brackets or very tight onces. meaning there is still some difference in skill level between the players or almost no difference. And with the playerbase being so large already i doubt it leads to any long queue times unless they make extremly tight mmr brackets.

    So basically what you're saying is, get gud??? 

    Really?

    I addressed that already ("If you came here to say "get gud", my disabilities preclude that so please save your time and breath. I just want to compete with individuals in my skill range, is all I'm asking for.")

    I suffer from severe tremors and will never have the great aim that some have, I try to make up for it in situational awareness, team communications, and other aspects, but really that can only carry you so far. I am PROUD  to say I actually managed to get bump into silver in overwatch it is something I am amazed I ever reached, but I doubt I will be able to maintain it.
