Rating suggestion from a newbie...

Better way to score players?:
  • xxxxxxx


I have noticed that there a lot of players trying to just get a lot of points. They put up about 10 games with 1vs1 play on maps that sucker newbies like me in. I just played someone on a city moghul map and was wiped out in two turns. pretty amazing. Clearly he has played this enough times to know how to get points out of players unfamiliar with the maps.

So I suggest a way to correct this is to create an additional rating based on the way college football is done.

That is, it would take into account the number of opponents you play in a game, the strength of the opponents, and home court advantage (a comparison of the number of games with specific settings that a players has done on that map.)

For instance, if you play a map with fog of war 145 times. and you play against someone who has played once - and you win. That shouldn't help your rating very much. It's like playing a "home game" against an opponent who has never traveled to your stadium.

I think by doing this, the incentive to game the system would be gone and people would have a rating that represented how good they are - not based on playing a 1000 games against unsuspecting opponenets.

Actually the points system already leans that way. More experienced players with a lot of games chalked up, tend to have a higher rank with more accumulated points and when they beat a noob 1v1 they do not get many points for their effort. If the noob pulls of the upset they do receive a big reward for the win.
