Re: Ranked or Un Ranked?

What exactly does their ranking system do?  In fact, what is a ranking system?  These are new terms for me so please feed me knowledge

Re: Ranked or Un Ranked?

Points gained in-game are recorded on POE's website, so people can flame each other about them. Stay away from ranking if you want a good game.

Re: Ranked or Un Ranked?

I have done some quick research and found that there is a site doing 2142 ABR

http://bf2142.bfstats.info/

From what I can tell.  "ABR" Is a ranking system like the one you find in bf2 and bf2142.  But the stats are recorded on a different system to what EA does.  The PRMM and POE mods use the same system for there rankings.  Again I am saying that I would like to see rankings at a latter date.  Not from day one.

Talon1579 may not like rankings.  But I do,  and I am sure there will be lots of players that will like to see a rank system one day.

Re: Ranked or Un Ranked?

Tbqfh, if I see anyone looking into ranking before everything else is completely complete 100% I will be making very critical reports about it whilst testing.

Simply put, ranking is completely unnecessary, and whilst it might be fun for some people, in what is likely to be a relatively (compared to CS, POE2 and things like DoTA) mod it will likely only cause negatives. The other fact is that ranking systems can all be abused, so as always its not like it will even mean anything.

Re: Ranked or Un Ranked?

Ranking is somethig we have no plans for at this time.

We'll no doubt look into it after a release or 2.

Re: Ranked or Un Ranked?

Personally I would rather not have ranking. For no other reason than I'd rather they were working on something else more usefull.
