Postby targetman377 on Tue Sep 08, 2009 1:36 pm

what do you think of teams with only high ranks. you think this is fair or should these people play more on teams where ranks are lower and spread out evenly in a team????

No.



there should not be that option would that not make it an interesting game forcing the teams to be even in rank. making the team games harder and more enjoyable for every player.

I don't know how many people would use this, I certainly wouldn't. Most high ranked players will only play in thier own teams and that is why they are high ranked. I don't see many high rankers playing thi so it knd of defeats the purpose.

It's actually a bad idea for a high rank to only play with high ranks. For example, four Generals only play quads will lose points overall even if they are far and away better than the competition. It's better to partner low ranks like Majors to balance out scores ;).

Yes but not random majors, some are dumb. They pick majors who are good players, or those who will listen to what they say. And majors are high ranks to some people :P

His idea is to pair people up according to rank once you have joined a game which no high rankers will do incase they get stuck with incompetant players.

If I wanted to randomly play team games with lower ranks, wouldn't I just join teams that have lower ranks on them?

The only challenge in it is whether or not noob partners listen to orders or not. Better to just play with people you know.

nothing more frustrating than playing a team game with a team mate who wont play as a team member, i can safely say that i will never play a team game with team mates i dont know. as far as improving my game, i prefer to play against higher ranks, suggest you get 2 partners u trust and game search the usa map for triples and take on some colonels or higher, basic map no trickery.

Post reported due to:

1. The adjective 'horrible'. I think a different word might have been less offensive here...how about 'interesting'? Much more neutral, FAR less likely to upset anyone!

2. Being a touch self-congratulatory as well as also implying that the OP is 'friends-deficient'. One must always be aware of the emotional stresses involved in being lonely and I don't think it is appropriate to taunt a person for (possibly!) lacking in some basic social skills.

I think flaming is just evil,

It kind of suxes been a team with high ranks, in the rare event that you lose, you stand to lose big points, unless the opposing team is of similar rank.

High ranked teams exist because

A) You like to play with people that you trust to make the right decisions and know how to play.
B) Generally but not always high ranked people have played more team games
C) It is hard to find someone that communicates and thinks properly of a lower rank. When you do you play with them as much as possible(is a points positive experience), then if they are even half as good as you think they could be, they make LT within 3wks or so.

There is a points risk to lower ranks if they are on the same team as a high ranked players. I generally play on teams with people of a similar rank, or with clan brothers/sisters who have proved themselves.
