Hey guys. I thank you in advance for taking the time to read this because it is a long post. I was thinking of a new ranking system idea for gears 5. One that is simple and easy to follow that always gives you an idea of how someone plays. Ill do my best to explain it. Every game type has its own categories that you are ranked on. For this I will use King of the Hill as an example.
To start. it is a point based system where each category allows you to earn up to 10 points. The categories will be
Kills per match (average)
Wins/Loss ( average)
Points per minute (average)
Assists per match where you did more than 50% to help get the kill ( average)
Caps per match (average)
Breaks per match (average)
Kill/Death (average)
The way it works is that your overall average for each category gives you points based on your average.
Example : kills/death average
0.0 = 0 points
0.3 = 1 point
0.6 = 2 points
1.0 = 3 points
1.3 =4 points
1.6 = 5 points
2.0 = 6 points
2.2 = 7 points
2.4 =8 points
2.7 = 9 points
3 = 10 points
Now apply the same point concept to the other categories and add all your points up
Lets say if your points adds up like this
0<7 =bronze
8<15 = silver
16<23 = gold
24<31 = Onyx
32 < 39 = Diamond
40 < 50 = Masters
51 < 70 = Godlike
in between those tier is like bronze 1,2,3 etc
Keep in mind that these are examples and all of these numbers would need to be tweaked to make it realistic and attainable. This way you and other people can look at your stats and overall points and see how you play. Also this gives you the option to hit ranks based off of certain categories if you perform well enough. But this also show you and others what your weakness are.
Example stat screen would look like this (This is just complete random numbers that i think would be somewhat realistic but you get the idea)
Kills per match = 20 kills average = 3 points
Wins/Loss = 1.9 average = 8 points
Points per minute = 450 points average per minute = 6 points
Assists per match where you did more than 50% to help get the kill = 27 assist average = 9 points
Caps per match= 4 caps average per match = 2 points
Breaks per match= 9 breaks average per match = 7 points
Kill/Death = 1.3 k/d overall = 4
total points = 39 = diamond 5 borderline masters level player.
from the stats you can deduce that this player is a crazy support player who is not afraid to get in the hill and make moves. Not a strong slayer but hey they enable the rest of their team members to be slayers and knows what it takes to win. I would like to play with this person
Another Example
Kills per match = 70 kills average = 9 points
Wins/Loss = 1.1 average = 4 points
Points per minute = 400 points average per minute = 5 points
Assists per match where you did more than 50% to help get the kill = 4 assist average = 2 points
Caps per match= 1 caps average per match = 1 points
Breaks per match= 3 breaks average per match = 2 points
Kill/Death = 2.5 k/d overall = 8
total points = 31 = Onyx 3 could be diamond easily or masters if they worked on their team work and playing objective
from the stats you can deduce that this player doesnt give a damn about the objective and not a team orientated person but has amazing slaying capabilities. this player could be diamond easily or masters if they worked on their team work and playing objective
So thats the rough concept i came up with it. Most definitely it needs work but i hope i was able to get the idea across. What do you guys think.Garbage idea or i am on to something. Honesty please. Thanks!
