@spIash_damageWow, that sounds like it sucks. And it sucks to see you leave. Do you mean you're done with the franchise or just done with BFN?
I hope the game gets an update that reverts BA, gives us the option to play casual, or drastically changes the concept of ranked (let servers match players like before and implement a leaderboard).
This isn’t a matter of my way or the highway but I can’t play a fraction of the games I could before. This is truly unplayable.
I’m sure other things could happen with BA that would make it fun again but it’s no good for me at the moment.
Rumor has it another CTF-based mode will come out later this year and I’ll be happy to play that.
As it stands, I’ll try Ranked 1-2 times per week until it gets better or I just won’t bother. I quit playing GW when BfN came out so that’ll be me done until further notice/improvement.
EDIT: @stukapooka exactly the same here. Super sad.
@spIash_damage I have had many issues with Ranked BA over time. I always have to change region when searching for a game, just to find a game. Even during busy times of the day in-game. I really anticipated this mode and was happy to try it. It's very hard to rank up, let alone find a game a lot of the time. Even some times when a game is found, people has left before it has started, and then we wait (and players start leaving). As much as I do like this new mode, there are so many issues so it's hard to just pretend there's nothing wrong with it. The developers, by my opinion, should either: fix ranked, remove ranked (at least until it has been fixed up) or add the normal variant of BA as an option as well as ranked. I thought that by adding ranked BA, you would still have the option to do regular BA as well. I was wrong. I've also had teams that party up as well, which makes it much more difficult to play.
Hopefully all the issues with ranked BA will be sorted out soon! 🤞
- 5 years ago@TheSprinter85 I was also one who interpreted “adding Ranked Battle Arena” as adding the version in addition to the BA we already had instead of replacing it outright.
I wouldn’t be surprised if some players who used to play BA but who also value their own personal stats now avoid playing it since your rank there is based on your team winning or losing instead of your own personal performance.
