Frequent bug related to ranked co-op ratings (SDS ignoring the bug reports)
-
My co-op rating has lost many hundreds of points this year over freeze-offs and teammates quitting. Rather than fixing the many issues with co-op match-making and ratings, it appears now you can win and be rewarded with negative points! Seriously, look:
Today I lost two games in which we had massive leads due to the opponents rage quitting. We confirmed with the opponents that they did indeed force quit the app from the PS5 hub. The first time this happened with us up by 7 runs in the bottom of the 3rd (pictured above). I mashed a perfect no-doubter to left field and the opponents rage quit out of the app before the ball had a chance to land. Naturally, the match immediately ended and displayed the stupid Orioles bird as usual. Upon reviewing the match results, I saw that we received the win yet I LOST 30 points.
In the next game, we were up 7-0 in the 5th when the opponent rage-quit from the PS5 hub immediately after striking out. Again, our opponents confirmed that THEY rage quit. Well, this time it decided to give THEM the win. How is this acceptable in a AAA sports game? And how do they not know THIS is happening?:
SDS, do you even care about the integrity of "ranked" gameplay? How do you expect to be taken seriously as a major "e-sport" when you can't even accurately determine the actual winner of the game? As a software engineer, I'm really growing tired of the lack of craftmanship for seemingly simple pieces of logic coded into the game. This is foundational stuff that should just work every time.
It's not like it's some highly-complex graphics engine problem... it's a simple ratings outcome algo. Come on developers, you're better than this.
