This is not me moaning or complaining now, this is just a suggestion to "fix" what just happened to me. My proposal would be if your ping went to 150ms> in a game it lets you leave without deducting star points. I was in a match just now which started on fine with no lag and I was doing fairly well, then the lag kicked in which totally ruined the game for me, now I hadn't done too badly but didn't want to leave as I hadn't done great so I was stuck in a catch22, screwed if I played on and screwed if I quit. Not screwed but yeah quite annoying.
OMG, can you please STOP complaining about the star system!!!! Every time you join #mondaynightcombat its OMG!!! I found a new way to lose stars they gotta fix this11111!!!. How many more threads must you open about you losing stars for wearing pink underwear on Friday? At the rate you make threads about how much your star rating goes down it must be lingering in the 1-2 range constantly.
Uber really needs to address the issue of me losing stars if I let my friend headcrab me to kill my own teammates. It is terrible I tell you and I will not put up with that! Boycott this game everybody!
And while you are at it Uber, can you cure cancer, solve world hunger and bring us peace for 20 centuries? Do what everybody else does Nekoh: Suck it up and do better next time. I had the same problem, finished the match and quit. The system favors a stable equilibrium in case you haven't noticed: If your rating goes down it's more likely you get a stronger team. Ergo your chances to go back to a higher rating improve. There is however no way that Uber can anticipate everything that could happen on your end. What if you have to drive your pregnant girlfriend to the hospital to deliver the child? Do you want Uber to fix your rating after that too?
Looks like we hit a nerve. Just stop caring about your stars and play more. Just imagine how experience you could have by now if you wouldn't make all those threads about the sttar system. You could be All Star already...
He has a point. If you absolutely need star rating, make sure to win guranteed. There are MANY ways. One of my favorite, find 4 forum guys and pubstomp SO HARD. Wala, your 5 star after 5 games, and after 5 more you are pretty much locked in 5 star for at least 3 more free losses. Btw, he is right, it would be smarter to TRY to get a lower rating so your team doesn't stink to high heaven.
