I could see there being a wait limit before it throws you into any game, but these weekend warriors are burning the bottom of the patience barrel. A team of 43% or less players that don't do anything for the objective and ride the borders the entire game. It wouldn't be so bad if half of them would actually chat, but they just sit there permanently zoomed in launching torps at things that are 25km away. Please give me ELO. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

1,753 goldeagle1123 Members 5,424 posts 3,448 battles Report post #6 Posted August 19, 2016 ELO was designed for 1v1s. It hardly works with game like LoL, with teams of 5. ELO system with teams of 12 is a pipe dream. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The only time people rage about bad players is when they aren't being carried to victory. I'm with Pope on this. A match filled with superstars isn't as much fun since you don't get numerous ships driving broadside to BBs, not turning away from your CV planes, or forgetting there is 'torpedoes in the water.' These players give us all that internal high five moment when we smash them with the three cit devastating strike. It sucks when they are on your team and die in the first 30 seconds or sit doing circles in the back corner, but really it's fair for everyone as what goes around comes around. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If they had ranked all the time that would be more valid. Or team battles. Or clans. It's those special moments when you mess up and die in the first 7 minutes and still come out number 1 on the team in an Atlanta. I don't rage about losing, I rage about people who don't play the game they're in. When you're playing dom I don't see the point of riding the borders and doing nothing. The total lack of communication is the frosting on the cake and no one here is going to say they haven't complained about the same thing at least once. It wouldn't be hard to match people in your own W/L category until you move up or down. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AW tried something like that once and it was a MASSIVE failure. To be fair though... aren't most things AW tries a massive failure the first time they try to do something? I tried to get into that game and it just couldn't hold my attention so I am going off what I've heard about it's evolution since I last played. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I hate WG. To be honest, it's even easier to sealclub at T1 now. You never have to worry about having to fight against T2 ships and the matches are usually never full so 3 ship divisions, instead of getting tossed into a T2 game, can wreck with impunity.
