Does anyone else think there should be a reward for hitting masters in every ranked playlist?
My intuition as to why the community has not yet pushed heavily for this type of reward is because such a tiny portion of the playerbase is able to attain masters in every ranked playlist, especially since KOTH players tend to dislike TDM and vice versa. Therefore, people tend not to care about the availability of a reward which they cannot attain.
However, the reality is that even players who cannot attain a reward for reaching masters in every ranked playlist stand to benefit from the existence of such a reward.
This is because creating a reward like this would incentivize players to continue playing the game for an extended period during each operation in order to chase this reward so the ranked playerbase would be larger, decreasing matchmaking times and increasing match quality . Furthermore, the implementation of a reward like this would encourage people to play every ranked playlist instead of hitting masters in their favorite playlist and stopping. Currently, once a player hits masters in one ranked playlist they have nothing else to play for because they have already achieved the highest ranked reward (masters weapons skins for the operation). The addition of another cosmetic reward for hitting masters in every ranked playlist would incentivize players like this to spend time in other ranked modes, augmenting the population of every ranked playlist. This would help facilitate the addition of more ranked playlists.
I have already raised this idea with TC directly and I was told that drumming up support of this idea in the forums would increase the likelihood of this being implemented in the game.
Let me know what you guys think; I’m curious if everyone else also wants to see this happen.
