Having always been on a 1st or 2nd place world I never really appreciated how much this system sucks if you're losing.
This beta restructuring doesn't feel like it's solved anything, more like chucked the food into a blender and put it back on the same plate. Now seeing what it's like to be steamrolled, yikes it's putting me off ever playing again.
From steam rolling to being steam rolled:
- Will now take 3~ hours longer to max out pips.
- Now have to actively work to keep participation up, never once fell to tier 5 last week, doing so frequently now.
- Went from ranking up 6+ times an hour, to roughly 1-2 now.
- Barely any loot, we rarely ever finish anyone off, whilst the enemy side wipes us all out.
What's worse is it's even harder/stressful to play when you're losing, compared to just brainlessly spamming keys following a blob around.
