Before ob: noobs should not be able to play with pros

But for ambitious players, one of best ways to improve is to play with people better than you. People who play against them are punished for using stupid tactics that don’t work at high level. They stop using those. People on the same team spectate them when dead, and can learn various tricks by observing them (trick no. 1 being “stop using ironsights for everything”)

[QUOTE=adeto;530155]Comp: MM unranked available from lvl 5, ranked available from lvl 15(or even 20 if there will be ingame ladders/leagues outside of just the ranks), and a completely separate ranked from lvl 15 for clan play(only premades/registered clans)
Pub: we just need servers like 0-5 5-10 10-20 20-30 add increments of 10 from here.[/QUOTE]

i think level 15 is way too high of a level requirement for ranked, 10 would be better imo

still quite a few people that play in cups/scrims and do well that aren’t level 15 yet

hell i only got like level 15 about a week ago

Hi,

everybody start as noob… noone was born as pro… expect chuck norris

and as this game still have no mechanic to make fair teams we have to do it… and it looks like alot of players with some skill have more fun to spawnkill in 7:2 the level 1 players then to jsut jump over and make fair teams

just watch out this dickish ppl

This is no fun and with such a playing stile the only thin what will happen is what alot of new players will dislike the game just becaus they never had a chance to play one fun game!

Regards

Think 15 is a good equivalent to for example LoL’s level 30. Still with the option for unranked from level 5, I would add a small experience boost(/bonus) for playing unranked 5v5 compared to publics. Rewarding players to play the competitive play-style rather than pub heroism. At least it’s a better solution than the current level 6 requirement as I’ve seen many level 6 players in ranked that have no clue how to even play the game because you can get level 6 by playing a week with an XBOX controller in pubs. I was against the level 7 to level 6 change for the same reason, people were complaining that ‘its a grind’ but its supposed to be a challenge before you unlock new things… Especially when the new thing requires you to have basic knowledge of the game.

Also there are people from ET.TF2/CS/BF4, friends from my team(dMon) for example(or the Fnatic BF4 guys), who are miles better than some of the semi-top teams at level 1/2 due to experience, aim skill etc. It’s true that those players will feel ‘held back’ but there are private server options with reward XP so if a person really doesn’t want to play pub/unranked they can still play scrims/pugs/whatever in a competitive environment. All I’m saying is that the current level requirement for ranked play(cuz unranked could even be at level 1 who cares about unranked anyway, its pub 5v5 half the time) is just really easy to achieve which, again imo, for ranked play simply isn’t fitting.
