Except for the shop where you can pay us more for less!
thats not even up yet lol

I just wanted my fifty fm
lol you're too funny man...

You guys aren't understanding the concept. You still lose points just less, especially when you lose to a much higher ranked player than you. So in essence if you are at least winning half of your matches your points will still go up, just slower than players who are winning all the time.
that is already in place. If you fight someone at 4K and your at 2k, you onlu lose like 35 points. If you beat them, you gain like 65.
 
It's very well designed, there's no way to just play your way to the top with countless hours, you have to be good, and excel in each level.

Exactly, I want the better players on top, not people who just put in tons of time. Once the ragequiters start getting punished the system should be pretty great.
 
That's just how it works at the moment. Guess you wouldn't know how many points losing takes away from you though.

It goes the other way around, though.

I was up to 1250 or so LP thanks to a 9 game winning streak, lost 4 matches to players in a lower rank than me, and was knocked back below 1K.
 
People on the Cannes stream complaining about Birdie's EX swan dive grab. They think eventually people will be able to react to it, but I feel like it's just slightly too fast.

It's 25frames startup

See if you can block Millia's overhead, I think it hovers at around ~20frames?
Also a way to test your reaction if you can react within a certain amount of time. The website reports inaccuracies though, but it's still a gauge.

This is what I'm trying to get at. Dude won 9 games and loses 4 and drops back to where he/she started.
 
I wouldn't be so quick to accuse trophy hunters.

I've had people quit on me, when I check their PSN profile they have a negligible amount of trophies. Not a single of them had a platinum.

The trophy hunters are a minority, and the true trophy whores/hunters/enthusiasts read about the games beforehand and most won't even dare starting a daunting list like SFV while they could be platting something much more quickly and easily in the meantime.

As a trophy hunter myself, 90+ platinums, I play this game out of pure love for SF, it is not a good game to play if one is looking for trophy per hour ratio, trophy difficulty and so on. Besides, trophy hunters will most likelt resort to boosting other than rage quitting, which is not as time effective.

You cannot boost SFV ranked, and getting hard to get plats that other people do not have is a big draw. Sadly the best method right now with all the quitting going on is to join them. Near impossible to rank up when you take all the losses but only 2 or 3 wins out of 5 count, especially when winning gives you much less points than losing loses you.

Pretty sure no one is having issues with the concept it is just that your point is "I might lose a lot of points so I take points away that someone else earned" and that isn't really logical, just selfish.

you're supposed to lose a lot of points if you lose to lower ranks than you. that way you get where you belong in the divisions quicker.
 
RQs deprive winning players who won their points legit so it makes you look like an ass. You lose nothing and they gain nothing and it wastes everyone's time. There is no justification for it other than not wanting to lose some silly points/rank. If you're good enough, you'll eventually keep ranking up. If you rank down, who cares. Play for fun.
 
Like I said I basically only RQed a few matches I wouldn't even call it RQing, the majority of the ones I bounced were teleport lag city, so why would I play a match like that? That's the issue what's if a match is hella laggy and you disconnect, will you get punished for that? Seems hard to regulate/control.

I was salty with vulva though. That was just me being an asshole. Can I mail you your LP?

Damn. Seeing thr rage quitters on gaf getting exposed and the excuses for it are pretty sad.

You took an L. Accept it and let it be documented. Rage quitters are the worst. Worse than any mythical flow chart ken by a million.

I'm disappointed there's rage quitters among us.. Frauds among us. I respect the flowchart more than a rage quitter.

Take that L like a man.

Which I'm cool with.
I'm just saying "winning at least half your matches" to gain ranks may sound good in theory but it doesn't quite work that way in practice.

One bad losing streak like the one I had will send you back down no matter how many wins may have come before.

I guess I shouldn't gripe too much, I've been really lucky not running into a lot of rage quitters.

Yea man, the system is basically saying "those guys are weaker than you don't lose". Now at launch, that is probably not as accurate as it should be lol. Diagothebeasr is currently a rookie at 0 LP points. But it will be a better reflection of skills level soon enough. If you're win streak was against mostly "better" played than you, you shouldn't have loss more than you gained in that clip of matches.
 
OT3 hopefully will have an update by then, this thread isn't as fast as the first, we probably won't hit 200 pages until Alex comes, and hopefully addresses the issues, all we need right now is a D/C percentage indicator, no adjustments for Lp need to be made if it's gonna break more things than it fixes.

Yeah but the thing is it's not entirely based on just winning percentage. There is also calculations based on your rank versus their rank plus who wins and loses. If it was just winning percentage anyone with enough time could just grind against worse players and move up the ranks, but the way it works now is you must beat players higher than you to move up to where they are.

You beating a bunch of lower tier people does not count for much, but you losing to them counts for a lot against you. This is how it has to work or the system is pointless.

Everyone should look up how ELO systems work if they care so much and stop focusing simply on straight wins and loss numbers.
 
Classic alt+tab abuse into rq because they're still too fucking terrible to win even with a massive rollback advantage

Somehow it's always Kens
 
Those of you getting a lot of rage quitters, how high up in the ranks are you? I'm only bronze and haven't gotten a single RQ yet

Disconnect should always be considered a loss no matter why it happens. Why? Because it keeps people like you not RQing just so that your precious numbers are safe. I have lost few matches because of lag and I honestly couldn't care less about those. It is just bad luck and sometimes it happens to be you on the bad end.

If they're teleporting around the screen is that really selfish or just a waste of time and energy?
