Elysiume posted:You still have a rank, it's just hidden (and way more volatile) until you get 10 wins. From what I hear it seeds you in GN2-3 and wins/losses have a huge impact in your first several games. Thats probably it. I looked and apparently I played a couple MM games back in 2012 that were very onesided.

Now that I think about it, how does it handle queueing with friends if you're unranked? Can a brand new account duo queue with a silver 1, an MGE, a global elite?

lmao, just went from SE to SEM to GN1 back to back, with the last one being off of a really funny match with a dude who was convinced i was walling. to be fair, for my clan tag i do run "organner-pl" but thats just to make people even more mad and boy did it work. this was prob the highlight of the match for me: http://gfycat.com/BarrenMediumAmericanmarten that guy was so angry from that point on

ESEA @ESEA The North American teams didn't win a single map at #ESEALAN against a European team. Duncan Shields @Thooorin For the first time in CS:GO history, an ESEA LAN will finish without an NA team in the top three. These are dark days. tee hee

It'll settle down once you got your rank. When my main placed a couple of months ago, I ended up in nova after having my rear end beat by mgs consistently- but I finally placed my smurf yesterday, and it scored an mg3 after having had most of the opposition at that level, same as on my main. if you suffer through enough defeats you'll eventually find some beatable people. Anecdotally, the ranking system seems pretty good at placing you where you belong in the end. Buddy of mine recently ranked a smurf, and he also ended up at exactly his current (mg3) rank too.

Suran37 posted:How powerful is source mod? Someone jokingly suggested a Chicken Racing plugin, which sounds entertaining and I'm always up for coding silly things. Sourcemod is poo poo and coding in sourcepawn sucks if you have ever written actual code, but it is still pretty powerful and you can probably write an SM plugin for that.

I played an embarrassing amount of 1.6 but my lovely comp couldn't handle CSGO well, well last month I bought a brand new one and warmed up for a few weeks in casual and tried mm. Got screamed at called a hacker just from being unranked and not bad.

AWPing just isn't as fun for me recently, so my way of adjusting to the new meta is turning this: into these: hopefully the third doesn't keep me from P90 deaging too much.

Fateo McMurray posted:Went GN1-GN2 in 2 wins. Why does everyone think ranking up so is hard It's ranking up to the next tier that people generally have issues with, myself included. The skill gap between a lovely DMG (me) and a good LE is pretty clear, so getting over that next hurdle will be tough. Ranking up within your pre-existing tier is relatively easy, as well as demanding, too.

was hoping to keep the streak going but we landed into cobblestone vs a premade. I almost managed to pull off an ace with a bizon and usp-s vs a full buy, but the last guy had a Scar 20

Rank volatility seems to have changed? Playing with mates and I've never seen so many rank ups left right and centre. Somebody in our 5 seems to rank up every game.

It definitely feels like something has changed significantly regarding ranking. Whatever, maybe that means I'll get to be the shittiest eagle in the world!

I don't know if that huge banwave just left giant gaps in the ranks that are getting filled up or what. I consider myself a lovely DMG but I've been seeing a whole lot of lovely eagles in my games that I can't believe are eagle whereas previously that just about never happened.

It's almost as if removing a load of high ranked players from the system would... cause people to rank up

J posted:Seems that way. I don't know if that huge banwave just left giant gaps in the ranks that are getting filled up or what. Probably this. With the ranks all thinned out, the system is probably trying to compensate, especially since the top ranks were filled with people that got nuked.

Doesn't it retroactively take out matches of elo rating where there was a cheater? I remember someone saying that and why it was stupid for dummies to get their rank inflated by cheaters. Paying for rank is all kind s of retarded but I remember someone saying it was doubly so because of that.
