    This is insane ever game lately is my team of regular 300 to 500 Renoun being raped by players with epic sniper or explosive cannon from across the map 3 shotting every boat. Players with 4000 damage and no one else breaks 1500. Until this problem gets fixed I'm out.

    I agree lvl4 shouldnt be rare but having 2 or 3 lvl 4 with mix of shooter fixer against a team of shooter lvl3 only. Come on. Not to mention wut is a lvl5 shooter doing at low 1k infamy?

    Yep, the mk5 has nothing to do on that infamy range, that is the loop hole being discussed here, but as i said before, just play a new game, it is very likely that mk5 won't be on your next match.

    I totally agree with the F2P outlook. When I started two weeks ago I thought it was crazy some people were already in the 40's and 50's. Took me a bit to realize everyone wasn't reset after BETA. So for those of us that just started we will always be behind :/

    It did not, however, other mk5 popped up.. Yes even though knowing the team was in disadvantage, I still went out and did my best. Just sometimes it got frustrated.

    Maybe try basing it on infamy AND battles fought, it would remove this problem wuite easily

    I signed up just to comment on Infamy.

    I don't understand why it's SOLELY based on wins and losses.

    If I deal 6,000 damage, sink four opponents, but lose the match I lose 24 Infamy despite having better stats than every other player in the game.

    Meanwhile, the guy on the other team that did 112 damage and didn't sink anyone gains 24 Infamy.

    I have no friends that play, so I just play on my own...and I try my best to stick with my team mates and play my role...but it's just beyond frustrating to just watch my Infamy go down over and over again despite seeing my name at the top of the list, with better stats than the winning team's best player, repeatedly.

    This problem is fixed easily if the league your in changes as you drop in infamy. This will force players to pay price of a smaller bonus for dropping

    nope, especially with the way current leagues work, you can maintain your league while dropping severely in tier.

    They drop so they can aim for better rewards while climbing back up the ladder, by virtue of a superior performance.

    well... a HEAVY PEARL USER ruined our battle for not moving or shooting at opponent. Then after we (4 players) die, he moved and go to destroyed ship intentionally to sink and get defeated.
    here is my question will he get be banned? even though he is a HEAVY PEARL USER?
    if you saw this post please report this guy in game.
    Friend Chat > Search Players > #XHBZBQWY > REPORT.
    This is his ID #XHBZBQWY ....

    @ManBearWiz you gotta see this post.

    Why would he get banned ? If he repeatedly did this for an hour or so I'd understand he'd get a warning then next time a temporary ban. I've played almost a thousand games and this never occured, plus afk players are extremely rare. Even idiots rushing at the opponents' team tend to disappear. Nonetheless I appreciate that you make the gamers' pool better.

    Screenshot_20170526-022115.png I'll add my complaint about boom!!!! Had him in a number of games recently. He's been afk most of them. Or just sucides without doing any damage. Yet it seems this is now such a problem that it's acceptable. Nothing has been done about OWNato either, despite the numerous reports of dropping infamy down to 800 from 2900...

    I am pretty new to this game and those seal clubbers are just too annoying... it is not worth to play such ruined game....... I will come back when this infamy manipulation is fixed!!
    Hopefully devs fix this issues before I completely forget about this game.

    I have lost infamy big-time when practicing the speeder and torpedoes. But to take a dive? On my pride as a gamer, no, I will never accept that, no matter the causes.

    As I said, this is TOO much. 900s to 400s is O.K. But a thousand plus to 191 is unacceptable. I suggest we prevent these jokers from losing certain amounts of infamy per day after they get reported. Permanent monitoring. Its unfair, but, hey...
