RS points system
-
They need to change the points system in RS. It should be a universal amount by division - Something like 20 points per win, -20 points per loss. I’m sick of winning 5 games in a row & getting 12-16 points per win but then when I lose one it’s -60 points. WTF?!?!
-
That's how it's always been man. You work your way to 899 and 1 point away from WS, you get matched up against some absolute goon who hasn't played RS that much and has a 600 something rating just to smack you around for 9 innings (or less in case of a mercy) and back to the abyss you go.

I understand that but it seems even worse this year. My last game I played I was awarded 1 point...1 stinking point! Was he in a lower division - yep, Did he quit after 4 innings - yep...But that’s still time I spent playing & a win is a win. The Dodgers don’t get less points for beating the Pirates. I just don’t like it. Wins & losses should be equal, Just my opinion though & I’m sure everyone will disagree because that seems to be the theme on this forum.

I agree, it’s always been out of wack.

Well 1 point is a bit cheap yes. But in that case the difference between rating might have been really big because I can't remember ever getting just 1 point other than early in the year when I'm already on my way to making WS and I'm playing an unrated guy who just started playing ranked.
But yeah I understand it feels like time wasted, but I generally like the point system. You can also set the slider to a certain threshold when you're looking for match, so you can never find an opponent rated way lower than you. So let's say you're rated 800, you can put that slider on 800 or 750 or 700 or whatever you want, and you'll never match up against an opponent lower than that rating. This way you're guaranteed a certain amount of points won. Or lost.

I agree and it has been like that since the start of DD from what I can remember. That is why I am happy they added the 40 wins to get the WS reward. If you lose it's a little less frustrating, because grinding out 40 wins isn't to bad.

when searching hit left on dpad so it makes the ratings closer to search.
