I'd just like to know the reason behind the Mex changes. What triggered the change and what the intended outcome was.

For team games the key is if you can actually trust your teammates to know the meta and to do their roles. The higher level the game the more likely that will be the case and the more fun it will be. The more random the team mates the more rage inducing it is.

I find team games overall easier because i'm better at concentrating on 1 or 2 things not literally everything that's going on.

@Lu7ky Not it's all fine we're just discussing things

The issue is, I join a game, the map DLs and I'm in lobby, IF that map is a hidden map how do I tell if it's unranked?

Wouldn't it be easy to see it in the lobby? just like it shows if you select the map in the vault?

@Lu7ky said in Game was not rated. Reason: Unranked Map:

A lot of the time a map will state it in the vault though not always accurate it can help should some homework be done
As for survival maps among others it is generally common knowledge especially if it requires the "sandbox setting"
As seen here:

P.S. thought I commented earlier but did not: if the problem is with a game being unranked they are almost always safe to leave immediately once seen in the game.

Speaking up and asking is another good way to tell, it is very likely they don't know for sure but that is a sign to get out

Another way to tell is to download then test the map in question should all else fail by creating a custom lobby and starting the game, even with sandbox it will show in the usual spot with the usual text (on top of any other unranked factors)

This doesn’t help when you join a game and the map itself is hidden in the vault.

I'd really prefer if there was an easy way to know in the lobby if the map is ranked or not especially if it's not ranked because it is an unfair / unbalanced map.

If you get an intel "H" processor with adequate cooling it is fine for FAF. It's the U processors and ones with terrible thermals you need to avoid.

If you buy current gen I'm sure you're not going to have issues at all either way.

Back when it was first gen Ryzen, Intel was clearly better.
