The old ranking system needs to return.
Honestly I dislike the new ranking system in Gears 5. A loss and you can still climb the ladders/leaderboards takes the satisfaction away from a win for me. It hardly makes Ranked competitive in my opinion, cause even low skilled players can still achieve high ranks by consistent playtime in that ladder. I know it's cause the playerbase is dwindling compared to what it used to be with the old ranked system, so matchmaking no longer takes 20 minutes at certain periods of the day, but I'd rather a 20 minute queue time and feel like I actually have to sweat for the win instead of waiting 5 minutes and not feel the need to play to my best cause regardless, I'll go up in the ladder. I know it's a personal gripe of mine and not many other players will feel the same way, I just needed to vent this.
