Ranking system is flawed

In Enlisted pretty much anyone can become marshal without skill

In order to rank up at higher levels, you only need to win games which more has to do with how good your team is than your personal skill level. This means that by playing a more popular faction (allies in Tunisia, Axis in Normandy, Allies in Berlin etc.) a player has almost a skill-free way to become a marshal rank.

I would like to suggest a new ranking system, the one that focuses more on skill than winning a match

Here’s an example:

Rank boosters

  1. Being top 3 in your team gets you +1 ranking point
  2. Being the best in your team gets you +2 ranking points
  3. Being the best in both teams gets you +3 ranking points
  4. Winning gives you +1 ranking point (adds up to other points)

Rank reducers

  1. Losing and being being bellow top 3 gets you -1 ranking point
  2. Leaving early gets you -2 ranking point
  3. Being the worst in your team and losing gets you -2 ranking points

New players and low-rank players can’t lose points because they are still learning the game

This is just an example I came up with, the point is, we need skill based ranking system. I trust devs to develop a balanced, skill based ranking system

I see you are a very intelligent human being

any ranking without skill based MM is shit. and we cant even get normal equipment based MM for normal non ranked matches cause there is not enough playerbase.
so no.

I try to build rallies for my stupid team or cover flanks CONSTANTLY and i sacrifice my soldiers by doing that and my k/d ratio decreases. Trying to find best spots for mgs and spending time for it rather than rushing like stupid berserker to kill 2-3 enemy then be killed instantly. Or using fighter with less bombs to clear skies from enemy rather than just ju 188 and frming infantry . Basically i sacrifice my potential points and time to win matches more efficiently. If you are in good team it pays off, but if not then you will be in last places on scoreboard. With your system tactical playing will be obsolete. Everybody will just rush directly, spam grenades and use only high calibre weapon. For eg. Fnab is not so powerfull smg but better at shooting distant targets than avt, with your system fnab like weapons will be abondoned

Marshall it’s only good for the reward pics

especiatly when you choose the ezmode soviets.

You already get extra points for getting hero awards regardless of whether you win or lose. You already lose points if you quit. There isn’t as much gradation right now, that’s all. I don’t think adding more of it would change much of anything.

The entire ranking system is pointless and I’m not even sure if making it more impactful would be a good thing. They should fix the core of the game first.

The whole purpose of the ranking system matters little, only player badges matters… (for now).

There were times that my team was so good that I had little to do.
What do I get in this situation?

Also, these ranks are supposed to indicate what? Skill? Coordination? Win/lose streaks?
What is the point of this ranking system?
I’d prefer a basic experience indicator, rather than the illusive skill…

skill issue

Elaborate, please.
