Fix placements

Post by Bridget »

Currently the game makes every person who lost tie for second place, with the sole survivor in first. This does not make sense.. it should determine your placement based on when you got eleimated, so first eliminated would get last place, and so on. It doesn’t make sense to force all the losers to tie when someone players are lasting longer in the game. It also makes ranked very bad, as everyone is last place even though some players did much better. I would like to see a change made to how the game determines who got what placement.

If you do that, players will play for second place.
So you are incentive to take no risk to lose, which ruin the game.

Official rules even emphasize 'there is no second place'. End of story.

Indeed, making all losers tie is 100% the intention of the game. This will not be changed.

well then there is no reason for casual players to play, no wonder the community is so small (1-0 games at all played simultaneously), i'm not trying to be mean but it's extremely tough, even as a new player to go to 100 elo, also if you wan to have one winner then the total elo of the players lost in one game should match or be close to the elo gained otherwise the total elo of the players is going downwards instead of upwards. Anyways, i liked a moblle version of this game and tried this version out but when i got second after many like 7 games and got +0 elo really hurt, sorry but i'm going to grind something else. peace and have fun
