please explain how this ranking system works.....

So why is it I win 8 out 10 of my placement games, have a higher KDA, and a better accuracy then my friend but I get placed in plat when he wins 8 of his 10 games, has a FAR worse KDA, lower accuracy and gets put into Onyx…

First off, I’m not even going to start with how I think it’s dumb you can get placed in the top rank. But. Like, how does that work?

… But seriously, why can you be placed in onyx? You should honestly only be able to get put into plat max and from there should have to rank up… I’d even be fine with diamond, but the fact that essentially someone can get placed into Onyx, and essentially be placed directly into champion just seems beyond stupid and kind of unfair to me.

10 games is not enough to validate labeling someone as “the best” for whatever game mode.

I’d love to know what everyone thinks, or any feedback, but I just feel this is an issue and needs to be changed. (And yes I understand it’s like still the first week of release, but problems are problems, the sooner they’re addressed the better).

Also just for clarification, I’m also extremely confused because everyone I was getting matched against were onyx and I was doing fine in my games (doing good actually) then get placed in plat lololol I just… I just don’t get it.

-inputs must be repeated (don’t carry over) when clambering or boosting
-no social playlists, no variety.
-aiming acceleration has deadzones, making it terrible and very notice. Aiming diagonally is slower than aiming side to side and aiming up is even slower. The -Yoink-.
-radar needs to be increased or just removed. It baits people into a false sense of security. We move twice as fast yet the radar is half the size.nice.
-taking away scoring in campaign, limiting custom game options. A general rule for sequels: don’t remove previous positive steps forward that are simple to carry over.
-warzone especially atk/def is poorly organized
-removing customization options (shoulders, etc). yet again, lame af.
-not being able to sprint whilst being shot. Extremely lame
-the time it takes to die in legendary is stupidly low
-weapon timers. The timers are way way too low. Securing a railgun can guarantee that you can control that whole side of the map until it respawns. Since and repeat. (railgun is also quite op)
-and not launching with forge and more maps. Stop. Releasing. Unfinished. Products. Don’t be surprised when halo 5 is abandoned. So disappointed with your “pro team.” Being worse than Halo 4 is saying a lot.
-Campaign was disgraceful as a whole. (What did you guys work on during the 11 month delay since the beta? The multiplayer is noticeably worse since then (aiming not working and radar)).
-Lying about the number of missions? (saying there are 15 and adding 3 walk around missions simply to be able to lie about it)Unless these things are addressed nearly immediately, the population will disappear rapidly. It is already happening. And deservingly so. MCC was a nightmare and yet some key mistakes (aiming acceleration and deadzones) are being repeated. Out of my 8 friends that I play with, all dislike the game. Two have traded it on. The reset were playing different games today. They abandoned it hoping it may be fixed in the future.the lack of talent and common sense stemming from 343 is impossible to ignore. Certainly the last time I am support them if these issues are not addressed right away.
-booting/banning people for killing teammates after the game has ended? Nice
-spawning outside of the map
-unable to calculate KDA? Nice. I have just over a 2.0 yet it displays as a 10. Messing up an excel spreadsheet is unacceptable
-no medal chest at the end of games? K
-did the marketing directions never play the game?

  • Spartan companies, yet no clan matches
    -over inflating ranks. So many subpar players are getting played super highly. Take a note from league of legends. Start them low and let them climb.
    -beat downs lunging but not hitting?
    -friendly AI are atrocious. Stopping two feet infront of you, not reviving, barely participating in fights, etc
    -rarity of armors, etc does not show after unlock.
    -story writing was just painful. Both dialogue and story.

What’s all this got to do with what the OP asked?
He asked for info on the ranking system.
