lunlunqq said:hi sonycowboy, why are you always playing unranked games alone? come and play with us in the clan games.
Maybe he has a funny voice?mckmas8808 said:Yeah Sonycowboy is scared to play with us? You seem like a good player, why not play with us?
Tieno said:Maybe he has a funny voice?
The upside to playing unranked games is that people can more easily join him at any time, unlike the situation with the clan meetups where you guys form a party and go straight into ranked games. If you're not on time, it isn't very easy to join in on the fun.lunlunqq said:hi sonycowboy, why are you always playing unranked games alone? come and play with us in the clan games.

I personally enjoy the experience. Playing with friends (well, I suppose that's what everyone here is) is damn fun - especially when everyone is laid back.
I also enjoy the random nut jobs yelling into their mics (not you guys). They're always entertaining.

Haha reminds that one game where one of us who will remain nameless left their headset on and had a whole conversation with a lady in the back ground. Somehow ended up with the game freezing and me getting my second quit . Looking forward to tonight unless this girl calls me.M3Freak said:He's just shy.

Think I was the one giggling:lol, I couldn't stop laughing at your reaction.M3Freak said:Yeah, what the hell was that? Man, that was driving me nuts. One of the GAFers kept giggling while that whole conversation was going on and I was complaining. That guy jinxed our game - I had to quit too, damn it!
As bad as that was, I'd have to say the wailing kid was the worst. Wow. I know PS3 is DOOMED, but man, that guy was taking it hard.
Beatbox said:I would appreciate if someone could link me to an explination of XP and leveling up. I'm not looking for shortcuts but rather an explanation of how XP is gained and if Unranked games are factored in or if it's just gained through ranked games. Comparing my stats and ranks to others has me all sorts of confused.
There are 20 ranks. Each rank has 3 pips (for a total of 60 levels). You move up levels by getting XP. You earn XP after every ranked game. Getting placed higher (as a result of the points you scored) than other people in the game yields more XP. You aren't told how much XP you earned after a game but you are told (on you're character/stat sheet) how much XP you need to move up another level (so I suppose you could figure it out). I don't think you can earn negative XP (it would surprise me). So, I don't think you can get demoted (or I would probably know ). Which means you don't have to be good to reach a certain rank, you just have to play. Each time you move up a rank you get more cute accessorries to put on you're character. I don't rememeber where I've seen the hierarchy before and I'm a little too lazy to find it right now, but I know its out there....
jstevenson said:Remember though, everyone on the team gets the same amount of experience from the team game, and the total number of experience is determined by how well your team does (as well as by winning!).
So the guys who are hanging back and finishing low are still helping the team and ensuring more experience for all - including themselves.
I spent a good chunk of time in our Nottingham base when we got down real low in that first round.

Remy said:The "flying wedge" is the term given to our tendency to mob together in a violent swarm and shoot the everliving hell out of anyone who dares get near us. It leads to multiple assists per kill which leads to a 20-60% increase in points. 16 points for a kill is far better than 10!
It does not, despite its name, resemble a true flying wedge - although generally whoever is at the front of the pack will get gunned down while those behind break through and destroy the opposition. So maybe it's not completely inaccurate.
I forget who came up with the term in context. Wasn't my idea, although I seem to be the Preacher Of All That Is Wedge-like.
The Jer said:Unranked games do not count towards your XP.
The Jer said:Also, jstevenson informed us that everyone on a team gets the same xp:
Beatbox said:Thanks for the reply.
That answers quite a bit - I've only played 50 ranked rounds and 350+ unranked rounds.
I guess I'm still confused but I'll live
The Jer said:Actually, Click said the other night that he did earn XP from playing unranked games. I have not confirmed this myself (but Click is a supreme commander, so he has a lot of XP). My bad. :/ I'll go change this in my earlier post. I geuss this could be checked by playing an unranked game and checking your stats before and after to see if your 'XP to level' stat has changed any. I had gotten the earlier information from the MP help guide, which suggests only ranked games gives XP.
M3Freak said:I don't know if it changes your ranking, but I think some of the medals can only be earned by playing unranked games. I've seen some of the game modes only in the unranked games (e.g. conversion and CTF).
jstevenson said:Unranked games do give you XP but Ranked games are worth much much more.
Possibly adding to this confusion is the fact that we found a server-side score processing bug where if you are in an unranked game for less than 30 minutes, you don't get any XP (or something like that). We've got a fix in testing.

He's pretty good. We were playing in a 5 on 10 team deathmatch last night and he was able to keep a 2-1 (or close to that) kills to death ratio. Then again it was sad that both rounds almost timed out. Those guys had numbers but they certainly weren't that skilled.Big-E said:I think hes cheating lol.
