Yea but the point is *over time* you'll rank up while they won't. So you'll be free of them!

 

Course that will take a while to sort out :D

well so far im haveing fun, the teamwork is much more apparent and chat is active. i had 4 great games all wins, for the most part everyone played a part.

 

annnnd then the 5th game some guy started crying in team chat about 20 secconds in that we were noobs and stupid and the guy just went on and on so teamwork was to be had in this game and it all fell apart i died telling the guy to shut up and was a wholey frustrateing expirience. (and somehow they managed to win this one so respect)

 

however overall i like ranked battles and i hope all the people crying noob and so on in chat will fall to the bottom ranks with any luck.

but definatly fun feeling like you have something to win or lose with the ladder system.

I'm loving the ranked battles!!!

 

7v7 means you can communicate better, and if you get 1 [edited], 6 ships working together are still strong and can do it!!

I'm getting no kills, but tons of damage with the BB's so the rest of the team can cleanup!

ROFL @ Ranked Battles. Still no communication, still people refusing to speak english, still people screaming "noob, idiot, whore or son of a whore" etc etc. I know, you rank up, the idiots don't but it's hard to rank up when you never win ;).

Yea but the point is *over time* you'll rank up while they won't. So you'll be free of them!

 

Course that will take a while to sort out :D

 

A while... ;)

Anyone know yet what the point of playing tier 6 ships in ranked battles is? Wouldn't it be a no brainer to always play tier 7 to automatically be top tier every game?

I'm hating ranked battles so far. I'm only playing with people whose sole intention seems to be throwing the games. Oh we're 50pts from winning have 3 of the cap pts the enemy team are all at C they won't cap before we win. People then see this as a challenge and charge straight into the enemy.

you guys are unlucky then with the teams, or noone is taking the lead in the team... i'm having a 6/6 good teams right now... or at least, not terrible teams that you can work on! and 5 times out of 6, i took the lead and told people what to do earygame, and midgame...

 

sure 6 is not that mutch to say that ranked battles are perfect, but still ;-) for now i'm pretty happy

Cleveland is always nice, so is Fuso if you don't have a Nagato. and for sure, New Mexico is more 'forgiving' than the Colorado

F*ck... not many people at rank 20 seems. It takes ages to find a game! i'll go get something to eat...

 

Talvathir i feel you mate... the only thing i can say is in those cases, try to ignore and try to give or ask for directives at the start of the match.

Try to be 'that one guy' that always says 'nice job' when someone kills someone or 'don't worry we'll avenge you' when someone dies.

That just rises the spirits of the people unless they are 12 year morons.

 

Sometimes it doesn't work, but still. Worth a try! At least, for me that's working.... Hope it will for you too!

I think you are being really lucky, I'm personally done with ranked battles too many ragers and ppl intentionally throwing games to make it any fun.

Some Tier VI are better than Tier VII.

And since matches consist of Tier VI and VII ships you will have some equal opponents most of the time.

At least wg have the balls to rollout an attempt at a skilled mm. If it provides players with more quality games it can only be a positive.

If it turns out, that the playerbase still isnt capable of teamwork, even with a skill based mm, then wg will have shown why there wasnt a skill based mm in the first place.

Like I said... a while for the system to sort out the derpiness

 

Played one, won one in Fuso... 80k damage, first blood, dreadnought and fireproof too. "Good going admiral" said my teammates... well yea, I carried that game hard! 3 friendly cruisers just minced around the edge not going towards the caps. We had to wipe them out to win... Fortunately the other Fuso was decent.

 

At least in 7v7 you can carry more easily.

Yeah nice way to brag about your lvl 20 hehe :playing:. I'm actually up to 22 now, some ordering about at the start seems to do the trick 2 battles out of 3 atleast.
