ranked/unranked games

Postby ZLO_RD » 06 Feb 2014, 13:16

so no one posted anything about that new thing, and apparently it is not a bug casue it makes alot of sence

so i have a question: when i put andjustable speed, lobby says that game is unranked but when i play trought it appears to be ranked game? is that just lobby display bug? or that is zep's evil plan?

note: this topic is just to ask about that display bug, that lies about game being unranked

yes, taking a game as unranked or not is a FAF thingy, the display stuff is a FA-Lobby thingy

Seeing the reactions in chat i think it's maybe indeed the best way to hide global rating or at least remove the leaderboards or only show it in 100 rating steps or only show gamequality and suggest which players to change.

Really this reactions today afternoon were so incredible redicolous.

getFog == 'explored'
getPrebui == 'Off'
getNorush == 'Off'

There is no way zep can ever make all games ranked.

If I make an empty SIM mod the game will already be unranked...
So If Zep is not going to make all Sim games ranked or check every mod that get uplaoded, not evven talking about maps with skrips
than his atemp to make gamespeed adjustable ranked wont work out that well.
Also the awesome no Sat / billy option makes any game unranked to

Who cares about globbal Rating :)
Ladder is the only one that counts

I hate the Ranked game ...

Anyway if you are forced to go to his Ranked Game, will create other Custom Lobby for Unranked Game.

In my opinion,There is no reason to make all game rank, like said MR Smith, ladder is real rank... And its harder to have big fun game, with rank on. there is always truble, bad balance, crash on big game so lots of player wont joing 5vs5 or 6vs6 rank. And if the argue is "its not your rating its just for better balance", some player dont understund that, and play like if their life depend of the game. Recently, i get insult because i was asking to a lagger to quit the game, when the guy who was insulting me realize it was unrank, he apologies...
So you could hide the rating, delete it, just keep the ladder one for those who want to play competitive way.
It was more easier for me to balance game and avoid lagger before with player tracker (even if the system wasnt perfect), who was telling me pretty well who was lagger, quiters and the % of victory than now with cpu rating and rating.
And plz dont misunderstood me with my poor english. its not an attack about faf or all the wonderfull work that is made here for that game. Ill with stiil be here and playing whatever way rank or not rank are taking ^^

100% agree. Ranking all games will cause people to play less games for fun and be more agressive. Since most of faf doesnt even play ladder, global rating is all they have and they will do everything to keep it high. Whenever there is a possibilty to have a rating change players will try to win at all cost and thats not really good for the game
