at least 3 of the 6 are war criminals, but thats fine because they won the war.

As stated before, excluding the first half of the ranks from missions and events would make them useless. There is enough obsolete gear already. This is a bad idea. There are better ways to counter seal clubbing than essentially removing half the game.
It would made them useless for players who are not playing for fun, but play only to be rewarded in some way. For those who are incapable to ignore events, for victims to FOMO.
And those are exactly the players which would abuse low BRs.

I personally think there NEEDS to be a ranking system, but they need to do an overhaul on it. Perhaps either by having a ranked mode or just games within certain peak hours count toward it.
Additionally, with the new system of BR, a select BR rating could be chosen as the “ranked games”, enticing more players to play certain BR ratings rather than just farming them out in low tier.
I disagree as the certain peak hours only ranked thing is unfair for those living in not favorable timezones or those whose playtime wasn’t at peak hours. Ranking system just encourages toxicity and your idea just makes me think that its better to just scrap the system entirely as it doesn’t fix the meta faction where on this case, a nation on certain BR ranges.

Definitely don’t play this game for rank unless they attach any decent rewards to it, doesn’t really mean anything other than a representation that a player either plays a lot, in middle or not much in that Season
information that definitely had an impact on quitters and peoples perception of the match they are in when they see those ranks flash on the kill feeds or they see they don’t have any ranked players on their team
The player needs a toggle to switch whether their rank is shown
similar to how officers used to hide their shinies in war, so the enemy snipers didn’t know who were the ranking officers that they would normally prioritize as targets
I will agree that I don’t think rank should be shown at the start or during games. It definitely is an issue in terms of desertion.
I still think that rank needs to exist though. As something to strive for and also for additional rewards for repetitive high performance.
Some people just want to “play casually” and that is fine. But there are also those of us that like the competitive combats. The “sweats” that some would call us. We should be able to play the game as we see fit too.
If nothing else, just split it into casual mode, and ranked mode. The ranked mode cycles BR each week and games only start with at least 50% capacity filled. This way the “rank” only applies to those that play ranked mode, and therefore the rewards that follow.
