If SE want more people play rank mode is simple. Just add a extra mode with duo/triple queue and extra rate for solo who queue duo/triple mode by themselves if they get stomp is their own fault for queue duo/triple mode by themselves.
Don´t even need some fancy reward. Serie reward/Exp is more then enough for bait casual people to queue CC and frontline.
heck we don't even get much reward with another online game fps/race car/sport/fighter/MMORPG pvp in casual mode mostly just gacha game.

I won't play CC anymore, ranked or casual, regardless of whatever carrots they try to dangle in front of me. It's just not a fun game mode for me for numerous reasons.
Trying to bribe people into playing stuff they don't enjoy is a terrible solution. If you want more people to play CC, then it needs to be more enjoyable to play regardless of any rewards they might get out of it. -

CC is fun but since i can't handle frustration and my keyboard can't handle me, i stopped playing it during season 1 : CC rank loss is too infuriating and playing unranked CC make me feel like i'm wasting an opportunity to rank up each time i win so ... frontline for me.
The only thing that would make me play it again is the withdrawal of rank demotion which is obviously not the road they chosed to take. -

The best way to get people to play CC is to make it not suck.
You can have that idea, Squeenix, free of charge. -

There's no point in playing ranked when you can be the best player out of both teams, lose, and rank down. It's complete luck and not skill. And given this is an MMO and not a strictly PvP game, the only reason to play at all is the rewards, so why waste time in ranked when you get the same amount of marks and series exp in casual.

I am not too miffed about the ranked reward. All rank offers is stuff for your Adventurer plate (which honestly is simple but lacking + each season is just going to add a roman numeral to it).
However the issue of PVP in general I believe is just the whole RNG factor of your team composition and players. One match you get a team who works together, then the next 3 in a row you get a team that wipes on the initial fight back to back as they don't know how to focus targets or even use heals/their abilities. Ranked CC is a slot machine if you even progress at all. I think to make the game more bearable if they choose to keep that RNG ranking a thing, you should not lose any stars until you have hit platinum at least instead of silver. Or even allow up to diamond before losing stars because at the rate things are going, people WILL just throw the towel in not cause they're bad but they have no actual control over their team or can pick who comes/form a team.
I wouldn't be this sour over the ranking if it was preset teams TBH. Least then the ranking system would make sense that you start losing stars after leaving bronze. The rewards for the actual ranked are no different from the casual ques say for the end of season stuff and there's really no big incentive to drive people who already have a version of the CC Framer Kit they already want unless they want a specific roman number tied to it. The end of season rewards are so minimal (which is for the best) Really though casual viewpoint tells me...
What is the point of Rank mode if both modes already offer the same amount of Series EXP/Wolf Marks? If they do not want to change the ranking or rewards to be more enticing for end of season, I say they need to bump the amount of Series EXP/Wolf Marks for Ranked Mode. Loss should be 900 exp and win should be 1100 exp. All the rewards that would of been bound to the Ranked mode like The Old Feast are now on the series exp anyways. 90% of the PVP rewards can be gained by daily spamming frontline with no effort.
I managed to get Platinum in my season since I think that framer kit is the best (Crystal and Diamond look too busy for my taste of card) and since i got it...I have no real reason to keep doing ranked unless they completely changed the end of season rewards beyond a number. -

Reading all these just kinda confirms what i originally thought of ranked in the first place tbf
CC sucks, its all rng and theres cheaters. maybe i should post these kinds of threads more often so people can see what folk actually think about this XD -

Eh I won't play ranked because picture frames aren't appealing to me and I just want to Gunbreaker some fools in a good old fashioned zergfest without a care for objectives. I guess if getting a high standing in Ranked meant you got max level gear and weapons with stats that rival relics and savage raids I might consider giving it a go but you don't so....
Cosmetics, picture frames, and mounts ain't gonna do it for me.
Besides I looked the other way from ranked with all the cheating and people supposedly wintrading to get max rank or be a top 100 on their datacenter.
No thanks. -

You are experiencing effects of being in an echo chamber, reinforcing your beliefs by staying in a place with only like-minded opinions. -
