New Ranking System!

That would get abused. A team of four would just have someone quit if they are going to lose to prevent their rank from decreasing.

Agreed. That’s why 343 is going to have a hard time balancing all these problems - most of it will possibly get abused.

> they should have the halo 3 ranking system, actually made me feel like i was good. i have always thought the ā€œgetting points and ranking upā€ system was crap. just cause you play a lot doesn’t mean you should be the top rank, only way to get the top rank is to do good and earn it.

You guys are talking about two different things. You seem to be talking about the SR ranking which is XP based. OP is talking about arena ranking which is even if you do well and your team loses you the game you go down…like from diamond 3 to diamond 2 or whatever. I agree though that it shouldn’t be based ONLY on winning and losing. I know that they are doing it to encourage team play and make it more competitive and strategy driven, but the thing is getting people to PLAY TOGETHER when they are randoms is definitely not going to happen. People don’t even use their mics…I mean COME ON. Also, on a related note. If someone is AFK on your team or quits and you lose then the loss should not be counted against you. It is ridiculous that it does that. The game is basically rigged at that point and it is not a fair match. I mean SURE it is POSSIBLE to still win a 3 on 4 or 2 on 4 game. I did both today alone, but it is still very unfair when you lose one and start to go back down in rank because people are leaving your game and AFK. I like that you can’t fall below your overall rank: silver, gold, diamond, etc, but they should every now and then recalibrate to make sure people are in the RIGHT overall rank. There are some people who, at this point, will never fall below platinum tier because they did well in their first 10 games or had a good team that don’t belong there. Actually I am always looking for people to play with that will be able to work together and do well. HMU if anyone wants to play.

I like this ranking sistem but i know that sometgis is gone, for example in halo reach you get credits when you won and when you get medals but is only getting money, but your real rank is waht equilibrait the game with persons of the same rank.

I love HALO 5 Im Happy with HALO 5 and I Love warzone In HALO 5 Guardians on Xbox Live

They should just use the Halo 3 ranking system.

There have been tons of games where team mates quit mid or early game, and it usually ends up like a 2v4 or even a 1v3, and for good sportmenship sake, I play to the end even though its only me in the game. Why can’t we make it so that I won’t drop my rank if I lose a 1v3 cuz it’s seriously not even funny.

Well, that is why 343i is fixing the CSR system. From what I have heard, 343i is working on the CSR system and will be fixed very soon.

It sucks, yes, but we have to deal with it for the time being.

Yeah I get it m8 almost every match I play as an unranked I’m cited against diamonds for some reason and my K/D ratio gets demolished because almost nobody an my team is even close to good

It’s nice when you have a good fireteam :slight_smile:

If only we could always have good fireteams…

Amen. I have no business being Platinum in SWAT, I stink, but somehow I’m there. I’m sure rando teammates would rather have someone else, and I’d rather play against people of similar skill. Here’s hoping whatever they’re using to assign rank currently gets tuned.

Agreed!

I think the new ranking system is pretty spot on reminds me a lot like Starcraft and I like that

> Play with a team, every halo that had a ranking system was based off wins and losses, as it should be, otherwise everyone will camp to have a positive kd instead of playing the game.

I agree also I like the ranking system divisions is better then just seeing a number plus H3 rankings you could get stuck at a a rank. Some players suggestions are right about having to work your way up from gold platinum or diamond, Im fine with where Ive been placed of course I waited about 10 days post launch before I got ranked in anything. I think they know some people got placed to high. If you think your team of randoms always suck find some people to play with or play FFA, also remember people have bad games. If your tired of tryhards rank up in Warzone so you can start with some good weapons and not get demolished.

everyone is just talking about the ranking system and I don’t even have the gamešŸ˜‚ from what I can see it looks like some people aren’t really happy with the system but I will mainly play warzone but I will use arena to stretch my muscles when playing with friends having competitive battles and stuff

> > I get the whole TEAM play is being emphasized, but reality is: Very few players use their mics to communicate. Since the games release, I’ve only come across a handful of players who have their mics on. That doesn’t mean I go rogue and fight my own battles, but playing in silence gets you so far. So if I get placed on a ā€œteamā€ that wants to play solo, why punish me? I think skill should play a role in your rank. Not just win or lose. I’ve had some really bad games where I almost contributed nothing, but got ranked up cause we won. Not fair for the other guys that did way better than me. Still going to keep playing though despite the quitters out there. :stuck_out_tongue:

Not if the other three people on your team are going -10.

One of the worst things is when idiots quit during breakout or something. I agree with the others having the system set to losing/gaining rank based solely on winning and losing is ridiculous. Sure it can be a factor in deciding but not the only factor. Please help!! 343i change this crap.

Yes!!! I am with you on this one…

I think season 2 will ballance out. Season 1 is to me is a test run of someone’s skill in a new environment. Since most of us have our feet wet it’ll be a greater challenge to achieve the rank we had in the prior season. I think it’ll work out.
