I think it sucks that you have to win for most of the missions, or that you can’t play low tier tanks.
When there are 14 other players in your team, it’s hard to really influence the outcome of a battle.

Same here… people still thinking it’s good even after many companies “tested” that it’s not…

[...] post is sort of a continuation of the missions post I made yesterday. You don’t have to read that one first as I’ll be writing about [...]

Your reading comprehension skills leave too much to be desired.

FAME is a bunch of elitist players scrambled together that troll blatantly all over the randoms. There are few good fellas there tho.

*sigh* Look, the point is that when you really get down to it people develop better or worse stats due to fighting opponents more or less capable than themselves. If they only meet opponents of equivalent ability this cancels out, and everybody ends up gravitating whatever now happens to be the statistical average – and pretty much *ends up in the same MM pool* for the most part.
See the problem now or do I need to draw it with crayons?

As a minor side effect personal performance metrics would become largely meaningless owing to the aforementioned canceling-out phenomenom…

Really? Let’s take a look, we have a symmetrical case good/bad.
So if someone is good enough to go step up, but not good enough to stay there, will fluctuate between n and n+1.
If there are 4 ladders, there are still 2 of them – half of player population that will never see that player. Depending on which border it is, from the bottom: better half, best and worse and worse half.
Still 50% better than it is now, when every player can met anyone else, regardless his/her skill.

Too bad I have to upload the replay, post it on wotlabs then wait till a mod fowards it on.
That sounds easy doesn’t it? Except every 2nd game on the ASIA server has a suspected bot or 2. Id spend more time reporting then playing.

oh my… this post was a good example of a bad case of verbal diarrhea

I think the only problem with the mission system is that it’s always in the form of an unsorted list. It needs to be organized in some way.
