ranked is unplayable

[Kyral]

games last forever, 7 rounds is just too long
one loss negates 3 wins, this is the stupidest ranked system i've ever seen
getting hardstuck with a 75% winrate is NOT normal.

Don't play ranked. You're causing your own suffering for literally no reason. Nobody cares about your rank, it means nothing. Play the casual modes and actually attempt to enjoy the game.

this game has no reason to be played other than ranked. every match is a torture grinding

Genuinely one of the most nonsense statements i've ever seen.

ranked system is garbo solely because it counts a loss in the final round as a loss overall. I mean, come on, is it really hard to understand that if a team made it to the final round it kinda means something?

well it's not nonsense if you truly understood what i said. bad game design, bad balance, bad teamwork. everything is enjoyable at first is now died down so what's left with the USP? you tell me

I was playing today againts sweats for 3hours. It was pure torture...I asked myself, why am I doing this? So I quit the game.

It's an arcade shooter with an almost entirely destroyable arena, with lots of gadgets and environment tools to use. It's just inherently fun. The only people I see complaining are the ranked people.

that's an understatement to say only ranked people. player tanked from 200k to 14k. they don't all play ranked. i think you have a lot of misunderstanding between complaining and actual constructive criticisms. dont get them mixed up and dont defend for no reason.

You have a lot of misunderstanding on how games work in general if you think any game ever keeps their launch player numbers.

yes majority of good games do. Healthy games grow player base from small to large - apex legends, bad games tank - city skyline2... it's just common industry knowledge.

"You have a lot of misunderstanding on how games work in general if you think any game ever keeps their launch player numbers." no ♥♥♥♥ but losing 95% of playerbase and every update the entire additive of players leave within a week, meaning no update yet has brought people back and stayed, its slowly bleeding out and only retaining a small core audience. You have no clue what you are talking about and the ranked opinion was terrible. Why only grind casual when theres little variety in characters/items/weapons because most are bad and unfun, no ranked to look forward to so no skill to want to improve, only a few maps. this is why it cant keep people, no reason to stay or come back. The games only good content is cosmetics lol. please dont respond with a ♥♥♥♥ opinion because stats prove my point

i salute anyone trying to play ranked this season.
but i also do it with a middle finger for giving that mode any engagement

this is always a bad take. when will people realise playing ranked is fun for a competitive person. but its not so fun when you dont feel like your being properly rewarded or punished for games.
it also doesn't help when the ranked mode you spent 2 seasons playing is tossed aside for a fricking event mode thats doesn't even fit the game.
i get cashout had its problems but jesus christ you could have used powershift or quick cash or something anything but a (not so) temp event. at that point they may as well have made bank it the ranked mode.
