If a balance patch is coming (and it very well maybe). I feel like it is in the best interest to do a ladder reset to even the playing field as well as possible getting people back into the game.

Does anyone else feel the same

To an extent yes becuase of the fact that with numerous bugs ppl have used to exploit the system so as to climb ladder rank. However, is it really fair to those who have not exploited anything and are just amazing players that have gotten their ranks from the beginning and have played the game when it was terrible (WFA Launch) till now? I think that due to this last point the ladder should not be reset.....just imo...

In the past Relic has reset all ELOs above a certain level to a baseline value, without touching stats like wins, losses, etc. It makes sense that they'd do this with CoH2 eventually.

The problem is, a stats reset fucks up matchmaking for a while until ELOs normalize again. With a small community like CoH2's, it could take a while for ratings to settle down.

No.

The only thing it would do is pitching high level players against lowbies more frequently for some time.

.... as well as possible getting people back into the game.

...


I think this will have no impact on people who stopped playing the game.

...but then again I don´t care much about ladders anyway, maybe there are thousands and thousands of players just waiting for a ladder-reset to come back to the game.

i voted against. what would be the point? there is a rank decal in place if it is too slow, it might be a good idea to strenghthen it.

what i would like to see is an improvement to the ladder itself. it should be implemented within the main layout of the game and not through a browser, i would welcome added functionality like a ladder of the month on top of the current all time ladder.

There is absolutely no reason for a ladder reset due to the aggressive decay system in place now.

No, because of what Inverse said. It's gonna take too long, and might drive away a lot of newbies.

They could maybe reset all the dispute nonsense if they ever manage to reduce that issue. Don't see the point of an ELO reset since it's hardly change resistant. Just play a few games and it goes up or down.

Yes! I could smurf my stats up much more! Because I lost lots of games in early days :)

Yes. A ladder reset is long overdue, but I'm afraid that...

i voted yes for the following reasons:

1. matchmaking is fucked up either way. im regulary facing top 100 even top 10 players although im mediocre at best. (oh CELO thou art a blessing and a curse indeed)

2. it would definetly be in order after all the game-breaking bugs/exploits that occured during coh2s history (i am not as much affected by that though. i lose because im getting outplayed mostly. yet for top tier players losing due to bugs/exploits is a very real thing)

3. usf no.1 slot. need i say more?
