FIX THE RANKED MATCHMAKING SYSTEM UBI, ITS HORRIBLE

There is rarely a match you can actually play in ranked. Either you get matched into a running game where you are already 1:3 behind, or you get matched with people that are several ranks above you (i am brone 3 and get constantly matched WITH other bronze players, AGAINST gold players) and most of the time i get into a game where 2 guys are having fun teamkilling the whole team, proceed to fuck around until everybody but me leaves, and then they vote me out of the game, so that i get a matchmaking abandon. WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK HOW IS THIS NOT PUNISHED?!?!?!?!

The massive fucking joke here is: Why the hell would you put players in an already ongoing ranked game? Ahh I'll play a bit of ranked, oh no I'm joining a shit team with 3-0 behind. Just imitate the cs:go system or something jezus christ.

Last I checked you don't join ranked games in progress only casual.

Sometimes the game decide to put you into an ongoing game. Yesterday our group of 3 got in a game 0-2 with noone else on our team.

Nobody can show their rage THIS obvious. But I must say it is righteous rage.

I have played about 100 ranked games now and have never experienced getting placed into the middle of a ranked game. Must be a somewhat rare occurrence. If this does happen though, it should be easily fixed by making people able to reconnect and not allowing other users to join regardless.

it happened to me 3 times this week. the last time was literally half an hour ago where i was put in a game which was 0:3 for the enemy team, with the 4th round already running. it was 1 v 5 and the end of the story was: i didnt even play and got downranked. im not even kidding. i got matched in to a game where the last round was already running. not only me, but also 3 other guys that joined after me its retarded, trust me. Also how hard can it be to just punish teamkills? like in csgo. 1 teamkill is ok, can happen, but if you teamkill twice you get kicked and get scored a lose. also reconnecting to games should be a thing, which could be hard tho, since UBISOFT IS MAKING US HOST THE GAMES, yep thats right, no dedicated servers

Dont get me wrong, the game is awesome, it has so much potential, but there a few essential things that NEED to be fixed to get this game to a competitiv level. Dedicated Servers, a proper "Watch" option (which is in beta right now), and maybe lower the price a bit. Like you get extremely few content for what you're paying. Compare it to dota which is free, offers a great, working matchmaking system, and probably makes more money than RB6S on fullprice

I don't even think those two games can be compared in a legitimate conversation. DOTA is a MOBA.

why not? its both 5v5, in both you can pick different "heros", you play against other players, you are using the map to beat them, you have an objective, you need to get matched with people that have approximately the same skill level as you have, there is no campaign (its a pure multiplayer game). there are plenty of similarities. you can compare it to csgo if you like, then you have 2 online shooters to compare with each other, but even csgo is only 8 bucks in retail shops

Valid points on the concepts being similar but as keeping it in the same game "type" I just can't wrap myself around.

The CS:GO like you said I can see. That game has a strong cult following and I heard great things about it. I tried playing it but just couldn't compete with the folks that played. I have nothing negative to say about it especially with the price tag since release.

I feel the year long free updates they have scheduled will really help keep a strong player base. I know the servers have hiccups for some folks but it just seems like every day there's a new negative post about this game. I think there's enough interest with this game that keep folks staying and I feel the 60 price tag will be valid and will work itself out once they keep the patch work coming and free updates.

I'm not trying to start a heated debate with you as everyone has there own opinion but the DOTA comment confused me and I fully respect your response.

mate im really not trying to get into a heated debate with you either :D i understand that the dota comparison is somewhat tricky and i am with you that i hope that RB6S will be big in a few months, cause its really awesome

lets just hope that ubi doesnt let this one go into the crapper and maybe advertise more, make it cheaper, deliver more content, or whatever to increase the player base of this game

The game obviously has dedi servers. Just press tab. There's no 0 ping players unless you made the game yourself. Spectator mode is coming, which we've all seen. I already got the game on sale and it is just crazy to say you 'need' the season pass when all the content is available to everyone for free. You're not going to get Ubi's attention with a rage thread as bad as this one.

Ubi needs one focus and one only right now: the shitty networking (matchmaking, server drops, players out of sync, etc).

Entirely agree, this shit gets annoying.

Fuck I was trying to hold out until rank 20 so I could finally play games without joining mid game and getting team killed. So much for that

Im pretty sure this was a ranked game but I was in a game all 5 of the enemy team left and the game brought in 5 BRAND NEW PLAYERS to a losing game that was already 2 rounds down for them. ubisoft plz.
