Upcoming update - Ranked Gameplay

Guys it's nice even possible to make these kinds of maps without that new mod by @cola_colin and @superouman

I feel a system editor update approaching, because we won't be able to compete with Uber's maps.

What's the difference between forfeiting the game and quitting? The match ends in both cases and the winner gets his win, no?

If you just quit, your commander stays until the other player kills it. The proper way to surrender in a game is to select your commander and press the delete key.

Waste of time killing the commander.

Oh I see. Never quite realized this. Can't say I have had this happen to me, so it's probably not a very big problem. Usually one player may quit out of a team of 4 or 5 (and you never know if the server didn't just drop him), but there's always people remaining to finish the game (who get screwed of course, because their teammate left them in the shared army games we play).

I will settle for nothing less than Platinum and will constantly struggle for diamond!!!!! Disconnects dont get in my way!

YYYYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LLLLLOOOOOVVVVVEEEEE IIIIIITTTTT WWWWWOOOOOOHHHHHOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Such good news! Let the count down begin!

Not sure how you've been lately, but I know you were at least in the top ten in Alpha, so I'm sure you can make it.

Man, I miss being competitive, guys- make sure competitive PA lasts past this December. :>

Nice! Looking forward to it guys.

I have to admit I'm a bit intimidated by multiplayer at the moment - so much so that I pretty much only play multiplayer games with my brother (we're pretty even in skill, so makes for some fun games)...I'm excited to branch out though if you can nail the matchmaking and pair me with people at my skill level.

Play 2v2 team games with army sharing with your brother. Give it a shot and it'll change your life. (I haven't got any work done for two months now.)

Exciting stuff! This will probably get me back into actually playing the game.

Jables, you really bring a lot to Uber communication improvement.
- No over-promises
- An expected live date (and we all know it could be delayed but at least we have a perspective)
Perfect !

Yep, exactly the way we need it.

Was that the sound you made when you hit the bottom of the leaderboard?

ZING.

Meh I'll be right there with him Also that actually has a ring to it

Diamond I'm coming for you

I'd say that every player in the top 100 on Uberskill will probably end up in diamond.

Disconnects are kicking my butt, Damn college family housing connection

I've been told that at least initially about 85% of the rank will be determined by the inverse of the Levenshtein distance between a users's account name and "BradNicholson". This parameter will be adjusted as needed to ensure a fair ranking of certain elite PA players.

team matchmaking wouldn't be so bad in PA considering it's procedural maps we're dealing with

also what I care more for is all game having RANKING.

hopefully in the future PA can tell the difference between a forceful quit and a crash. or at least hand the win over as soon as the guy who left starts a new game.
