@waffelzNoob said in 1v1 Ladder:

I don't get your point

If all custom 1v1s count towards ladder rating then the rating can be abused or at the very least players will play maps they enjoy, are better at, and still end up with an inflated rating. And now we have nothing to gauge a player's 1v1 ability with

My point is that it was once discussed if dual gap should have a separated rating category, to not inflate or falsify global rating, but got "immediately" denied. Thats what 1v1 currently looks like.

Changing global games to count to 1v1 will make it less reliable for map-specific players, but still more reliable overall. You often clown on my 1v1 rating for example, but its not even that far of on the standard 1v1 maps. On mapgen or bigger maps its a different story but when i host that to play these kinds of maps it doesnt count (obviously).
What I'm getting to is that it would make more players 1v1 skill accurate, as i don't see the "some players might be inflating their rating on x map" as a reasonable argument, because what exactly is the problem with it? Ofc its not good, but we literally have learned to live with it in the most relevant rating category (global)

@waffelzNoob i dont think so. Right now ladder rating = maps in the pool but not any kind of mapgen (or barely any)

And i dont think this is really an argument, because it some point it was asked to have a dual gap or astro specific rating and it got immediately dismissed

So your problem is that people might be better at setons or dual gap only? xd

Not quite the right topic ...but, I dont remember who i've told this, but i think 1v1 games hosted in global should automatically count towards 1v1 rating instead of global. I can guarantee way more people will play 1v1 (custom 1v1 in this case) and it will solve way more problems than it creates

@Gatorized said in Suggesting rule change: make immediately unpausing after a player asked for a pause against the rules.:

If the host pauses, no one but the host should be able to un-pause.
If the host refuses to pause when you need a minute, you can leave the game and join one that isn't hosted by a cunt.

Incredibly bad take on this. Host gets triggered by something, pauses the game and minimizes it. Good game.

@Nomander said in Ranked vs unranked games:

https://forum.faforever.com/topic/272/why-was-game-x-not-rated

The UI mod Supreme Scoreboard2 displays if a game is rated or not, although I think it only handles common cases like mods, victory conditions, AIs, and unit restrictions.

In theory yes, but my experience is more like i dont trust what ssb says at all. Maybe it shows correctly if its rated, but i have 0 trust in anything else it shows from lobby settings

AEONS are GARBAGE!

In short - there is an option "hide standard settings" or something like that. It will hide all settings set to standard and only changed settings will show. You kinda have to know what to look for if its unranked, but its mainly sim-mod / unit restriction / the setting "unranked" set to yes

@IndexLibrorum sounds good, but imo 30 seconds is A LOT. I would even say 10 seconds is A LOT and was more thinking like 5. But maybe have this configurable in the lobby settings?

Someone targeting casters?!

I agree with it being unified, but do not agree to merge 2v2 and 1v1. Its a HUGE difference if you have a teammate you can maybe even rely on instead of doing everything else. I wonder why i dont search 1v1

@Nory in theory you are right, but unranking it will not give it more attention, it will make everyone just forget about it.

I think its a good thing ( in theory ) that this and shared armies is ranked.

@Zeh_Gota said in AEONS are GARBAGE!:

Pls someone ban AYAHUASCA_Dest...
Again!

Yo this guy trying to silence the truth!!!

Deli and I unsign; as i stated before i do not like the no share setting, and after seeing the maps it makes even less sense

Sorry, pinged the wrong guy, was meant to go to @IndexLibrorum

@Nuggets said in Decapitation should be a rated victory condition:

I tried to get a mod rated recently. The perfect organisation of FAF told me to talk to 3 different teams with each team telling me to talk to that guy and that guy and nobody could make the call to get it rated.

This topic is a bit old, but i only now remembered i wanted to reply to this. @IndexLibrorum whats the reason for your downvote? This is literally what happened so i just gave up trying to get the mod ranked

I agree with Nory here. But making it unranked is the wrong way to go, as i can already tell if that happens it will take 3+ years until it gets a usable UI (or its just forgotten). I think this could happen faster if this was actually brought some attention instead.

But at the same time you could say the player could look at the ingame options... with the filter that excludes values that are set to default its not that hard...

The comparison is funny though that to get a mod ranked which does not impact balance or gameplay is almost impossible but at the same time we have essentially clown settings with no usable UI that are ranked

I sign up if this tourney is moved to any saturday. I am not starting a tourney on a sunday which could take a while
