Evan Nikolich's opinion on Rank

It's a good read on the direction of rank, at least they're aware of the painful grind.

"In terms of RP being a more accurate representation of overall game skill, I think we are not there yet. We have improved over Season 12 where it was too easy to climb with degenerative strategies, but in Season 13 we have a number of high-skilled players sitting in lower ranks for too long. We need to get better at separating out the skill tiers faster, and the team is actively working on improving it."

    I guess what we all want is just better communication from Respawn. We’re not asking them to reply to each question but to at least address some huge issues that’s still a problem for multiple seasons now. This issue with the xbox game chat hasn’t been updated same goes with the Loba Q. People won’t follow 15 different developers to get these updates. I guess PC and Playstation players are just lucky since Switch players also had a problem where the water in some maps are just purple. LOL. 

    How about they communicate using their main twitter profile? Did you guys know they added some additional code to stop DDoS attacks? This should’ve been communicated at least in the patch notes to put some people at ease. I know EA is also involved in limiting on what the devs can say at Respawn. Poor or no communication is one of the ingredients that killed Overwatch. 

    One of the reasons why communication was better back then compared to now. Who else remembers these dev streams where they explain the changes in the upcoming patch?
