Zero Points for Win

NoSoup · March 15

Since the recent update I've noticed I've started getting zero points for some wins in the Ranked leadboard matches. It's been so long since I got ZERO points when you won a match that I had come to think it had been fixed. Yeah sure, sometimes you only get 20 or so points (dispite a loss being 100 - 150) but now its gone back to some wins netting absolutely no points. This last one kinda peee'd me off as the opponent was on a very similar skill level to myself and ought to have won it except for one poor choice right at the end. AAAAAnnnyyyywaaaayyy, it looks like 0 points is back (for me at least, maybe it never left for some of you)

this is one of the reason i cant get into the pvp tribute, when losses make you lose points

never even made it to rubedite tier yet partially because i dont enjoy playing tribute against players, and partially cause of the point ranking system

i hate losing points, ever, i would rather you just get 0 points for a loss instead of negative points

to compare its like those games which give you an xp loss penalty on death, i could never get into those because thats too steep a penalty when it could take hours to grind up xp and then lose all of it on one accidental death

The ranks prior to Rubedite arn't so bad as you get a minimum of 100 points for a win so as long as you win more than you lose you'll progress though the ranks. What sucks is once you get to Rubedite occasionally winning nets you 0 points. I hadn't had a game with 0 points in so long I thought that ZOS had made some adjustments so that you always get at least 10 points (which is still meager compared to the 100 points you lose on a loss).

that makes it a little better, i still hate losing points on a loss at all though

as theres a lot of things that can cause a loss outside of your control: random crashes, general disconnects, etc, or even just something dumb in the match itself like a poor RNG or making a simple mistake

losing points at all is akin to punishment for me, especially when it repeals potentially hours of work

it makes more sense once you get to the "leaderboard" portion at rubedite rank, but i dont think you should lose any points prior to rubedite rank
