"Play/Win __ Matches in Competitive Mode" daily missions are ruining Competitive play.

(cinnamonCherry) #1

Making Competitive Mode a daily mission completely invalids the purpose of it BEING a competitive mode. It’s purposely separate from the casual modes, yet now it’s being flooded with low level beginners that doom the team they’re assigned to.
Combine that with the unfair team balance and you have slaughter like the two I played today.

The first match I was the highest player on my team at 13. My teammates were levels 5, 6, 6, and 11.
The other teams levels? 6, 7, 14, -20-, and FREAKING -40-.
For those of you bad at math, that an average team level of 8.2 vs 17.4

The second match had me at 13 with levels 7, 8, 8, and 8 against all level 5’s and one level 11.
That one doesn’t even need an average to show why it’s unfair.

This isn’t fair to anybody. The competitive players that get screwed by having inexperienced teammates just playing for mission credits, or the new players that don’t know what they’re getting into and get set against people like the level 20 and 40 mentioned above.

Agree, these missions should be removed. They’re annoying for players who don’t play competitive and for competitive players it is annoying that some players only join for the reward.

Quick tip: If you don’t want to ruin your score, remove those missions, and wait for better anti-cheat, or better matchmaking.

I’d rather it just be play x matches where any match type will count if there is going to be anything match related, isn’t the win x competitive counter productive and problematic like they said in regards to removing win x objective/stopwatch matches?

Shoe already said this mission was going to be removed. Patience.

Since there is no central place for dev announcements like that I had no idea they were going to remove this type of mission. Thanks for the info.
I cant watch the dev stream because I’m a dirty foreigner and I like to sleep at 3:30am.

Yeap,i agree about win x matches but still i am confused by play x matches in competitive.

This mission brings people into competitive? Would you rather wait 20 minutes?
