New way of gaining rewards. Anti infamy-drop. Read Here

instead of having the leagues for loot, we should have a new way of gaining loot. It is gear score * infamy.
Say your gear score is 10k, your infamy is 4k, that means the ratio is 2.5
1 * 2.5 = 0.4 x 10 = 4x
nightmare gold, 10 000 gold, X 4 = 40 000 gold per match (too much?)

Heres an example if you are extreme pro, 7k gear score * 4k infamy = 1.75
1 * 1.75 = 0.57 x 10 = 5.7x (multiplier)
nightmare gold, 10 000 gold, X 6 (5.7 rounded) = 60 000 gold per match for pro nightmare players.

This way will prevent infamy tankers

Here are some rough loot gainable
challenger 2000 gold, 1250 sugar,
warrior 3000 gold, 2250 sugar
master 5000 gold, 3250 sugar
ace 8000 gold, 5500 sugar
nightmare 10000 gold, 7250 sugar

So for a person like me (master)
it would be 5000 * 2k = 2.5
1 * 2.5 = 0.4 x 100 = 4x
5000 x 4 = 20 000 gold, 3250 x 4 = 13 000 sugar per match
(may change depending on damage/ heal/ ship sunk etc)
This is normal for my infamy range

edit: fixed the math

 

Your math hurts my eyes, I honestly don't know what you even mean

 

That part I understood. It's how he obtains the numbers that makes no sense to me.

Anyway, I do agree that such a system would be better than the league system. It should be simply based on infamy per gear score though. Reward multiplier = constant * infamy / gear score

To be honest, I've never liked the league system anyway.

 

Even before its implementation i found a loophole....what if u have a gear score of 5k on your shooter and 2k infamy but then you play a match with another ship of less gear score and make the multiplier out of the world. Lol

 

Well, theoretically this would not work, because lowering your gear score enough to make a significant difference to the multiplier would kill your ability to win matches. Aside from the occasional carry you'd only be losing.

 

So basically the less gear score and more infamy aka MOEE skill means more rewards?? Awesome!!

 

Love this idea.

 

But practically it would because believe me its way easy to win with speeder even with low gears and many times the other players can easily carry you around if you just keep nitroing and distract enemy.

 

Well if you can reliably use this strategy (distract enemies while dodging shots with nitros and having your teammates kill them) then you deserve to be at that infamy, and the system still works as intended

 

if you drop your gear score (per match) you gain more loot, cause it's harder to do well with worse stuff

 

but infamy tankers can use sucky items so they still gain more loot when they lose??

 

I like the idea of skill= rewards. Tankers, suiciders, and floaters will not get ANYTHING

 

oh yeah,, um. so, my NeW idea was to make it that the maximum multiplier was 10
So if you were a mk5 speeder with nothing and you just run around collecting dust and taking damage, at say, 2k infamy
640 * 2k = 0.32 x 100 = 32 / 10 max = 50 000 gold, and X sugar

 

Yup this is just one of the many issues with using gear score in matchmaking. You enable the user to manipulate the system for rewards.

I'm strongly opposed to using gear score in matchmaking. If your ship gets stronger, you should move up.. not get tougher matches to keep you down. Think about it... how does progression work if you equip a weak boat and get weak teammates, or equip a strong boat and get strong teammates? It'll be like treading water.... going nowhere.

 

Oh yeah,,, what idea do u have?

 

I like the idea of rewards by infamy (sort of what leagues do not a great job of), which addresses tankers, and offers better rewards than the current league system. Gear score is too fluid though, varies by boat, varies by loadout depending on your quest, etc. Infamy needs to be fixed to be more stable though... I've opened several threads with suggestions on how to stabilize it which addressing the tanking issue as well.

 

I don't get the math
How is 1*2.5 equal to 0.4? Shouldn't it be 1/2.5?
Also, why is 0.4*100 equal to 4, shouldn't it be 10 not 100?
