In a recent post I asked how scoring worked, some good replies informed me that 5 elements decided fighter ranking.
I propose a new element is required. A minimum sortie level before you are ranked at all!!
So far this month I have done the ususal, attack bases, defend bases. When checking the score in the roster yesterday, I have flown 108 sorties have a K/D ratio of 1.81 and 8539 points, that equated to a rank of #536. Not great but ok for a relative noob.
I noticed on the roster another player whos name Id never seen before had a fighter rank of #170. Thought id check his score to see how much I had to improve to get to this rank.
Well he had flown 2 sorties, for 4 kills and no deaths and 200 points!!!!!!!!!
Hell I had similar score at the begining of the month after playing for 20 minutes.
Ranking players under this format is a waste of time. How about a 20 or so sortie minimum before ranking applies, or do away with ranking altogether since it bears no relation to in game performance.
