Subject: Ranking is glitched

Hey guys, Ive made a second account called xiTz Js BRx.

I made it for fun because my friend recently got xbox live and I wanted to play low level with him, so dont come saying: nooby second account boosters ect...

Anyway, Ive been playing lone wolves and Ive come in the top 3 all 45 times Ive played, 3rd once, 2nd twice, and besides that always 1st.

Accept my highest skill is only 19 and its taking forever to rank up. any suggestions? check the account for proof

Thanks

Winning too much makes it harder to level up.

Problem is now that you are beating so many low level people the game expects you to be in first every game. By going lower your chances of leveling are severly lowered, as well as you will not rank up now unless you play someone with a better LW record than you. Until you beat someone at least 8-10 ranks higher it will continue to take forever to rank up, and even then it will take a few games

lmao at "the game expects you to be in first".In other words.."even though I(meags) have a 50 I really have no clue how to get a 50 besides boosting,lagging and booting people off the other team".

I'm a 44 in lonewolves and it doesn't matter if you come in second or third as long as you don't go negative.Just check your exp points online here to see how many points you need to level up.When you're just a couple of points away that's when you will need to come in first a couple times.

You could win 8 games in a row but if you go negative in all those games you won't rank up fast.

And when you hit 45 that's when the "lag"(lol surrrre) starts happening more or people team up together..which is f@cking retarding considering it's lonewolves.

I hit 45 fast but when I got there the "lag",deranking,boosting and booting that goes on makes it impossible for me to get any further.

K/D has nothing to do with ranking, its based purley of sigma which is gained by beating/losing to people with a better sigma. See if you win alot then you have a low sigma, and will not go up/down unless you win/lose to an extreme. If someone who wins and loses often beats someone with a low sigma then that person will automatically rank because the person with low sigma is expected to win by alot more than normal. The reason people get stuck at a rank is because they both win to people they should and lose to people they shouldnt

Since you brought up LW, It is the hardest playlist to achieve a 50 in, self experience so I guess that's my opinion. People do cheat in LW but it was rare for me. From 49 to 50 it took me way more than 8 games, about 24 straight up wins. From 44 to 45 it took me about 12 games all in first. I remember I went down from 49 to 48 when I got in second. I've encountered people who "team up" also, that pissed me off the most, but just cause other losers who have to "cheat" to win does not make Meags or any other 50 a network manipulator.

After dominating so hard you lost to legit (or so says the system) 30s. you were playing at a 50 high skill though, so your sigma was still high, as you hadnt won enough games in a row. however due to winning so much you lost to mulitiple people with an even higher sigma than yours, which made it look like you were playing at a 10 Hs. thats the gist anyway

ok well while were on the topic of lone wolves and ranking my account that i have used for awhile (AdvancedGarbage) is wut its called now. But my 13 yr old brother played on it for bout 4 months while i was in guards, any ways it was a 44 when i left now it just looks like crap and cannot really get anything in anyplaylist to rank up he did drop it to a 33 in lw i finally got back to 41 but stalled out and i do have a forty eight and fifty on two different accounts just dont no why its stopping me...

Alright now you lost me.I obviously have a lot to learn because I have no f@cking clue what you just said there.

Could you explain that to me in noob terms.

It's weird,when I first got my account and I got my 45 in about 50 or so games people died easy when I would throw grenades and shoot them in the head.When I hit 45 they start lagging to where it takes 7 or 8 shots in the head to kill someone..or walk over grenades and take beat downs.Then I hear about this host thing..wtf is that?It makes you stronger??Can someone please explain what it is and how people get it.

ok so basically u are sayin only way to get rank back is prob to derank in a different playlist to get this sigma up am i correct

no sigma is a playlist based ranking, you have individuall sigma per playlist. If you are stuck you are either losing to people you should beat, or you are beating people that shouldnt stand a chance anyway. you have to beat someone the system says you arent supposed to beat. Basically if you want to be a 50 you have to beat 50s on a consistent basis

Squad is gone.

If I had to state a retired playlist it would be a tie between RBTB (VIP on Rat's Nest FTW?) and Team Objective.

Mythic Brawl / Legendary Brawl were harder though, since you matched MM and FFA warriors every game.
