So, ive been booted back a rank twice today

Punishing is fine but if the player has decided they don’t give a toss these punishments likely means little to them. The game should compensate the players who are affected or at least reduce the impact on the rank. It’s one thing to have your time wasted, to then derank as a result is just insult to injury

(Szakalot) #42

the idea is that toxic players are banned and effectively fished out from the MM population via these punishments. punishments are simply not harsh enough, leaving should be a last resort situation, not a ‘i dont feel like losing today’ button

(Runeforce) #43

This. Plus minimum requirement to enter ranked should be that you have at least a couple of hundred in-game hours under your belt.

(ostmustis) #44

I think bugs happen too often for harsher punishment but yeah, quitters can burn in hell o:)

(Szakalot) #45

@Runeforce couple hundred is awfully unrealistic, thats likely less than 5% of the total playerbase.

rather than prohibit people from playing, the rank progression could be A LOT (2-3x) faster, so that poor players are mote quickly matched with other newbies, and viceversa

(Runeforce) #46

@Szakalot Yeah, well you know I exaggerate a bit to underline a point. The nine hour mark it’s at presently is a joke.

(Jostabeere) #47

@bontsa That’s interesting and good to know.
One thing I would add. Leaving a game and booting in 10 minutes later should be punished aswell. The time it’s 4vs5 can cost, will cost most of the times the win for the team.
Rejoiners should have the ability to play that game, but receive a penalty afterwards.
And like someone else said: “You lose connection frequently? Don’t play MM.”

Welp fuck. Thank you mate now I can’t play comp again until they fix it. Was fun playing one balanced match atleast.

(Runeforce) #49

If this is true, you can expect a hotfix. And should it be more a complicated fix, it will become a top priority bug.

How many placement matches did you win? And what initial rank did you get?

(Szakalot) #51

@Jostabeere if someone d/cs but tries to come back asa, punishing them sounds like a dick move tbh; lets keep the punishments were important:'leavers and d/cs who dont come back.

besides you only have 5min to comeback anyways

7W 3L, was placed Gold 4 with 1/3 progress
Maybe wrong, but I think they were matching me using preseason ELO because I kept on getting matched up with duos that i knew were preseason elites instead of the many other friends that were also queuing but had lesser preseason ranks

Ah. So you only have 5 mins? Okay, that’s fine. Then my idea isn’t good. But still. 5 minutes is a long time to lose a game.

(Mc1412013) #54

@Mc1412013 How? How did the enemy team play as a full clan? You can’t search with more then a 2 man party… I feel like you haven’t played ranked since the patch…[/quote]

no not yet.

i just played again today i didn’t even realize there was a patch this week i was too busy this week my pc was off all week i jus tknow they reset ranks

ill have time saturday to do some comp matches[/quote]

Please keep posts relevant with current information then. :slight_smile: I played comp back in march during the closed beta but it isn’t applicable to this thread here. They were particularly discussing leavers, not 5 man pre-mades.[/quote]

I must have the night quill kicking in when I wrote this :frowning:

(Ballto) #55

WELL im at risk of silver 1 for the third fucking time in 24 hours even though i scored 18k and my duo buddy got 20k because some sucking nader kept TKing half the team every fucking push.

LOL I DIED GOTTA MARTYR TO TRY AND KILL THE GUY

Like jesus SD not even CSGO does it at purely win/loss

if you do better than most of your fucking team you should still get something or at least NOT LOSE A SHITLOAD OF PROGRESS.

Salt aside @RazielWarmonic @stayfreshshoe i know youve been tagged a lot in this but seriously, please take a look at it and if Raz could just make some kind of comment that its still being looked at that would cut down salt factor significantly in everyone

(Remedica) #56

I would like to see you losing game after game because 1-2 people leave your team.[/quote]

Well, I’m not going to play ranked this season because this is just plain stupid, when I saw the upcoming changes I said that it’s just gonna be another pub and you can’t deny I wasn’t right. I have also seen you craving for this change for a long time and now I see you crying about it, the irony almost makes me hard B)

(bontsa) #57

About DC’s, we do have pause option now too. Could simply hit pause vote would one member to be disconnected, and politely discuss to agree with everyone on waiting set amount of time for him. Unless complete douches or unable for human interaction, should be reasonable enough request if one team is missing a player simply due random error. This info about 5minute rejoin time should help in the subject too. Even restarting the game takes max 1,5mins or so, plenty of time to join back fresh.

Pause seemed to work so that once called successfully, it freezes the game letting everyone use chats though. Only the team that called it was able to unpause for 1 minute or so, after that server announced everyone being able to unpause, and once done server counted to 3 before doing so.

Congratulations you got a high rank from queuing with a full team. Not that hard.

I’m talking about solo and duo queue where the only way you climbing to your current level is by RNG literally.

It’s dependent on the skill of your team, the skill of the enemy team, and whether or not someone disconnects. It doesn’t matter how good you are. Your efforts in a game is only a small portion of what’s needed to win.

(Kingsley) #59

@Black
Gonna take a wild guess here and say that you haven’t play MM in this new update yet.
You can no longer que on a full team.
That screenshot was the result of solo/duos MM games since this weeks update

All my ranked games so far have been decent. I’m going 4 wins 2 loses (3 wins 1 loss Solo) (1 win 1 loss with a friend), but one of the games we played, a clan of 5 were searching and 3 were put on 1 team and 2 were put on our team. We had the 2 clan and a non level 7 random so we actually won that game. Friend went to work, started searching solo. Enemy team was all 5 of that clan who as soon as they got in the game one of them typed “finally its only taken 4 games”. So in theory you can still get a 5 man stacked team. its just harder to do now. But my other point there was that level 7 players really shouldn’t be playing ranked and it should be increased more to at least 10.
