True Skill Vs Elo Ranking System

Ok, So this post is guide to the ranking system vs Old and the New Elo System. I want the old 1-50 Ranking system back ( True Skill ). This system during Halo 2-3 was good and bad at the same time probably worse during Halo 3 with all the Circle Booster/Host Booters. Which I could live with, I had a 50 in almost all the playlist for the expection of like 2-3. I love being able to get on at ANYTIME and playing 50 high Teamslayer and only playing kids around my skill gap. I never had to worry about losing my 50 cause I didn’t play for a few days. True skill seems to fit Halo way better then Elo ranking is which Call of Duty use since they introduce ranking into the game. Elo Ranking is based off a leader board style ranking system. Once you achieve “Semi-Pro” or “Pro”, you have to basically keep playing to boost your ranking standard which was ok. Now here lays the problem I seems to have. Being Semi is like being a 45 and being Pro is like a 50. In True Skills if you dont play you wont losing your current rank of 50. In this new ranking system if you don’t play you will get knocked out of “Pro” to " Semi " and can fall into Onyx. So this is life, stuff happens all the time where you need to go and take of business and be away for a few days. Why should WE be penalized for this? Why should anyone lose their ranking they earned cause they cant no life a game? Today, I literally went to bed at 11 PM my time, I didn’t get on until like 11 am ( On vacation ) I went from 1650-1500 over night, so image if you left. I prefer True Skill over Elo. This was you keep the ranking you earned and play people in your skill gap. YES, MCC TRUE IS MESSED UP FOR NOW! All the skills are gonna get reset and have the old true skill ranking system back. We wont have huge skill gaps and make the game widely unfair. Give me your personal opinion about ranking system.

Well to be fair… even among the 50s in Halo 3, I don’t mean Halo 2 because they are all cheaters, there is a very wide skill gap between them. Like MLG pros that are 50s are MUCH much better than a regular 50 who isn’t Pro or Semi pro.

Trueskill has been messed up since Halo 3 (even back during Halo 2 from what I hear). The way I see it, if you’re care enough about your rank in the game then you will be willing to invest time into it. If anything a lvl 50 is somewhat casual compared to the Pro or Semi league’s in Halo 5.

League of Legends is the most successful game in esports. It uses an Elo system that de ranks you if your in platinum and above and dont play. I think this is perfectly fair. I know a lot of people that got their 50 and completely stopped playing in that play list because they feared they would lose it.

You know longer lose rank in League of Legends anymore if you dont play anymore since the 4.18 patch I’m Plat player and I haven’t played since July and Still in Platinum

Well the ranks are seasonal & it’s been said you cannot be demoted to onyx once achieving semi pro. The fact that you can get locked into semi pro the whole season from 10 placement games seems detrimental to skill based matching. As for having to play to keep your rank I guess that’s just part & parcel of achieving pro rank.

50 In MLG and thats all I play. I shouldnt have to keep grinding to get back to Pro cause something called a life takes me away for awhile. I’m a soldier, I get deployed.Why should anyone with a life get penalized for this?

I’ll take that, That’s was insightfull. Its any annoying to keep getting your skill ranking back after a reset. Rather have True Skill + Exp to give you more reason to play your preferred playlist

I thought it was just gold and below that you no longer got deranked since 4.18. Congrats on your plat I’m in Gold 3.

> If anything a lvl 50 is somewhat casual compared to the Pro or Semi league’s in Halo 5.

Is this statement for real???

that’s why I played semi-pros in Halo 5 and was quite capable of holding my own. Actually I had almost a two K/D against them and I’m a low tier Onyx according to Halo 5.

Well isn’t it more skillful to keep playing to maintain that 50 as time goes on? Cause when you first get to 50, you were only THAT good. But as time goes on it forces you to keep playing in the future. Further increasing your skill, and perhaps the skill level of the general public in the future increases as well. Meaning you have to keep up with the time. I gotten a 50 in Team slayer and MLG, then I just pretty much took a year long break and played Cod 4 and Waw. then when I came back to play some MLG I was getting merked over and over. It could be that I was rusty, but I think it’s because the skill level evolved as I took the break, and those who kept playing gotten better even better than when I previously gotten the 50. The new 50 was better than the old 50.

Though I prefer the 1-50, cause it just simple, but from what I hear the new ranking system divides the skill gap accurately as time goes on.

if your not a pro you shouldn’t get to be in the pro tier without no lifing, which is what they do…you just have to maintain your pro/semi pro status there is nothing wrong with that
