Guild Wars 2

Nothing annoys me more than people giving up on a match, whether it’s by abandoning or just AFKing.

I think the problem, particularly in unranked, is there’s no difference if you lose with 10 points or lose with 490 points.

So my proposal would be to give out more rank points based on your score. It could use a similar breakdown to the ladder position system.

• 1-199: 300 points (same as a loss now)
• 200-299: 500 points
• 300-399: 750 points
• 400-499: 1,000 points

This would at least give a little motivation to improve the score, even if there’s very little chance of a win, and at the same time is much more rewarding for those close matches.

Or your score could be just:

300 + your team’s score + 200 bonus if you win

That would be significantly lower than the 1,500 you currently get for a win. Is it your position that wins are currently too rewarding?

Well, technically, the end score affects your rating in unranked too. They’ve said that unranked uses the exact same system as ranked, except there’s no leaderboard for it.
But since there’s no visual score of your overall performance in unranked unlike ranked. They don’t take it as seriously.

So be it unranked or ranked, you should always fight till the end.

sorry 300 + your team’s score + 700 bonus for a win.

this sounds good. more motivation for players in unranked to do better.

maybe can pro rate the silvers rewards as well.

silvers reward = 5 + 10 (team score / 500) + 15

so, a loss with 499 team points means 14.98 silvers, close enough to 15s.

a win means 30s

have to cap the (your team’s score) at 500 though so nobody does a dumb last second lord rush

So solo Q’ers get punished even more vs 5qs?

no.

Not sure how, the worst case scenario in what I posted is the exact same as what you currently get for a loss.

By the way, I solo q probably 75% of the time.
