Ranked Battles

[USMC2145]

So they did the test run for ranked battles. Did they make any changes to the system i can't find anything on it? There was lots of things that needed to be tweeked and i am not sure they did anything.

Since they start by tomorrow it would be nice to know.

What changes did they even make?

Judging fro the info available in the client now, stars have been readjusted, tiers are split between brackets now.

Rewards also got minorly tweaked, ensign flags.

However based off the 0.5.1 PT update notes carriers now are an enforced equal tier MM in ranked as well (so you won't have battles from say a Lexington vs a Bogue), in addition to that the maps have been modified and now only hold two caps rather than three.

Ok, thank you.

It would be nice if they would mention potential major changes before just springing them.

Good reason to finish watching Angel, though.
