I refuse to play anything but Div 1 this ridiculous abortion of a game in S2....
...I forgot who I was supporting by spending my money on this game, for the first time in years...giving my money to... ugh, PGI, you could F up a wet dream.... I can't believe you're in charge of the IP for MW5....
Guys.... this multiplier on the first 10 games... it does the opposite of encourage fair play....
Solaris is dead... it discourages fair play and encourages gaming of said system and sitting on leads artificially inflated....
Please guys.... we pay you millions to figure this stuff out, how could you take a decent scoring system and F it up so much, sooooo much..... I mean dang guys, it's hard to believe you didn't porously tank this....
Please learn tournament design.... let's get a dialogue going about a fair, fair play encouraging scoring algorithm, let's actually discuss and disclose how the scoring system, so people, obviously with more than a clue than you folks... or someone who doesn't want to purpously discourage fair play, which is the only thing I can believe, because I can't believe people whose livelihood it is to make a game could go from decent to FAIL ..... so, so... I mean, it has to be deliberately.....
Gang.... Community! let's discuss the tournament, which is in day like 60 of 90.... it's punitively long, no one is talking about this... I'm not debating the efficacy of weapons, map selection... this stuff I think is done right... it's the scoring, and the multiplier in those first 10 games and the vulnerability to gaming of said system that you just can't get back if you don't do it... it's that redicously broken... when you can go from making 400ish points for that 10th win to a max of 2.... because you won't find anyone near the upper eschilon elos who is stupid enough to risk their position....
I mean damn guys, get a clue.... I want a Solaris 7 season I can play the @#$@# out of and earn it... Not a balanced 1v1 system with a TOTALLY BROKEN SCOREBOARD/LEADERBOARD..... PLEASE FIX THIS CRAP, FFS....
Signed, the dude who placed #10 overall in S1,
-Dart
Please, please, please fix this...
