So, this is how my morning down in the Underhive has been going. 600+ damage matches, multiple kills per match, 200k c-bills accumulation per match. And then this, probably the best match I've had in months. 934 damage, 2 kills, and 300k C-bills. Thankfully the crawl out of the Underhive is slow, I love being able to farm all these C-bills.

Good for you I guess. No need to be in a hurry to get out. C-Bill earning is meager up here thanks to people dying too fast.

And so many people are acting like being placed in a low tier bracket is a bad thing. How many Tier 1s do you think are having games like that?

This would likely be to more people doing their part to win a match. Less effort needed by each player would result in less money earned.

To hear the Hyper elite talk every single player in any given match is getting 1000 damage matches with at least 5 kills each including the players on the losing side. That is what it means to be Tier 1 from what I understand. I suppose you can do the Cbill math from there.

Yep, and a lot more consumables are being used, to keep the scores high. Can't earn much when every match has 40-80K tax.

indeed, the issue is, you need a few hundred matches to get "out of the low tier swamp" But those matches will grant you laos of Cbills first and give horrible cancer and gaming experience to the newbies.

The system is badly designed. it needs some urgent changes, otherwise every player getting more ups than downs will be T1 in around 1 year when he played 2k matches until then.

Deselect all but 1 server and game mode. Wait 5 minutes for extremely unbalanced match. Farm to heart's content.

Rinse and repeat as desired.

I never pay the tax. The reason I am here is to have fun playing the game. I have no need for Epeen exercise.

UAV's? heh. Airstrikes? heh. The Underhive craves not these things.

I see some are exploiting the tier 5 pool already. I wonder how many games do you have to sandbag or throw after a match like that to stay in tier 5?
