PvP Ranked System needs addressing.

[Sharindel]

Yeah, the ranks are a stupid idea. Who ever think that this is a good thing, needs a nice trip to "gamedesign and how you don't make your players hate you"

Why?

• The Rank is personal, the challange is you and 4 randoms. Only 1/5 is your doing, the rest ist random!

Problem

• You have the feeling that it is not your fault! Even if it is!
• It is not fair, to have a personal rank on with 4/5 random chance (80% is RNG)
• You mostly do the whole day.. get a star, loose a star and if this continue, you spent days after days with playing and you archive NOTHING. Because of RNG.
• Yoshida want a game that respect the time of players and what did they do.. another top 100. That don't respect the time, because you must play and play and play to get in the top 100.

Solution!

• Rank equals Personal Archivments. Big Archivments.. like Get 200m Damage or make 5m Damage with every Job (aka 5 million damage men/women)..
• Archivments is Damage total, healing, kills, wins and so on. But not compared to other players. Rank is a archivment for the player alone.
• Change the Top 100 in a Value that is based on match archivements. Like Top DPS, Tops Tank, Most Kills.. not WINs
• Top 100 get Titels not player pass design. Thats the same deal as with the old feast. Where most of the player don't want to do feast, because they need to play all the time
• If Top 100 only archive "Titles" other players have not the feeling that they miss something. Player Pass Designs that a player don't get because he has not enough time is the same bad thing as top 100 feast with items. Player don't get it so its not fair for them, because they have less time to play it!

The one dev who works on this system please top playing overwatch and lol. This systems are related to games where a singel player can outmatch a whole bad group with skills. Final Fantasy 14 is not so much skillbased that singel players can rule over bad players. Also competition is good, but to take something away and make it mostly impossible to archive with a normal timeframe of a working class player... its the same stupid idea as the top 100 out of the feast. Most player will not go ranked or will give it up, because they see, it is an impossible task that take to much time.

PvP Ranks is the worst idea ever if you follow yoshidas design of "respect the time of the player" do something! Stop this stupid challange... its like "only who do the most ultimate thordan will get the titel after 4 months"
