Points System for Match Making in PUG's

[1Shot1Kill]

I support this idea.

Mostly Venator's thoughts on mumble.

A system so players are match against equally skilled players. So they wont smash the noobs or be destroyed by Vets.

Points are earned through team victories. +10 for wining 0 points for tieing and -10 for losing.

These points are individual and out side of the leagues. He talked about a way for individuals to get a bonus points.

Player with higher points wont play against players with lower points.

So what happens when there is a majority of equally;/Near 25% equally.
In otherwords, say a noobish player wants to play AoS, and all of the servers are above a certain skill, how can he play when the other servers have 0 or 5 people?

I have experienced this in another game, it is called Forged Alliance Forever.
If you can fix that problem then I will support this.

Wait, this only works with the launcher? I have had issues with my Windows Installer (Spent 5 hours one day looking up every fix ever, and it didn't work) and it just does not want to install the BnS launcher. I currently use Command Prompt to launch my game. I'm also unable to download any version of the game. Would I not be able to participate?

This wont replace anything so they could just hop onto a community server.
The way this would work is gather 10 people for a pug and allocate them to a server.
The system is only used to have equal teams on pugs and a little competitive aspect in the normal game.

Sounds cool

There shouldn't be any integration with the serverlist...


This is my idea,

• 1. We add blacklisting to the serverlist,
  2. We add an Openspades or BaS launcher download,
  3. and we add a play ranked feature.

How does it choose a server?

The way you worded that made it seem as though you think the serverlist on the site will be changed to accommodate the PUG system, which was my first reaction too. dan's link shows that he meant the serverlist will be displayed in the launcher.
If you meant that that shouldn't happen... why not?

Now this seems like a good idea.

I would play more if this gets implemented :D

Solid idea I love it. We definitely needed new features to support the game and encourage community growth. This could be very cool to have especially if it drives the competitive spirit of the community. I am all for features that will not only encourage the current community to get involved but also draw in a new crowd.

Excellent, I am excited to see how this turns out.
