Last time i looked at my points was back when they were introduced.
.....

This! Also the last time I checked anybody elses was when they were introduced. I play on duel simply to be better, it is good practice. Panos is correct.

If people like Risen want points so bad to overall impress few new players who dont know jack and check the ladder tab, be my quest. They simply look more pathetic,nerdy and needy to the rest of us. I think we all normally know whose points are usually bullshit, who we want on our teams and who overall is a good player. Thats why I dont mind people going apeshit over the points in duelserver, they make me lol.

POINT: What the hell are your duelpoints worth to anyone if you basically waste ticks and equip in stratbattles cause of being a jackass and loose multis in battle/siege?

It still suprises me how he is #1. He can't block with weapon, he can't fight on foot. :mrgreen:

It's just getting friends to give you points, I got Shik up to 1880 points on NA duel a few weeks ago for a joke by giving him points off my main, grinding them back up again and repeat.

Do away with points altogether.  Everyone knew who the good players and duelists were before points were introduced; as a measure of e-peen they are unnecessary.  It makes the duel server unwelcoming to new players -I've seen people actually say that they don't go to duel because they are afraid of losing points.  And a system of ranked and unranked duels is only going to lead to taunting of players when they inevitably refuse to play ranked.  If you want epeen, organize a tournament or wager duels.

Reminds me of the time I dueled a certain semenstorm tincan who disconnected beacuse "he had the wrong loadout", then proceeded to duel everyone else.

Yes, been posted before. Rather than practicing swinging a weapon, it would be better to go 1 hander and learn a martial art that specializes in takedowns, because that's all that really matters in that sport.

To my experience,the only players who are concerned about points are those who know they can make it to the top 25 ( and perhaps top 10) if they work  hard enough at it. Those who do not have the skills to achieve the top 25 don't care - nobody will see them anyway on duel ladder. Those who can make it easily don't care so much, because it isn't so much of a challenge.

Personally I have quite a natural e-peen like most people. I love to show all players that I am one of the top 25 duelist on EU. However, I prefer the fun of duelling to this 'pride', so I force myself to give out all my points to some random guy when I start to feel the need to stop duelling to not lose points. It feels good afterwards. I can duel for fun again and stop raging when I lose lots of points for a few fuck-ups.

Of course, this is my method, but many players will want to keep their points and climb to the top. It's natural. That doesn't change the fact that yes, indeed Panos, this kills the fun of duel server, and that something should be done about it.

However, since our 6th of january ''present'' ( makes me laugh how we all expected to recieve something that day and we ended up giving away 40 000 euros haha) it is unlikely that 'devs' will spend their precious time on the old limping c-rpg to improve it.

People who disconnect during a duel, should automatically lose.

Might be a crash tough :/

The point system needs to be tweaked so that players cannot abuse it or take it so seriously that they are selective with duels.

Count only a few of the duels as ranked and make it random and don't count more than 1 duel against the same player per day.

What I had in mind is to count only 1-5% of the duels.

And of course, you would not ever output points won and lost ingame. That way no one will know if a duel got ranked or not.
You will see that in a few days / weeks on the c-rpg site.

So why is there a points system? other than e-peen...

Yes. That might me the case in some situations. But how often do you expect to crash during a duel? I guess you do not alt tab during a duel... disconnecting or really crashing is really rare during the normal playing time. Don't think that's the reason why most people suddenly dc during a duel however.

I don't really care of course as I never duel anyway.

I do not think it is the system that is broken, but the honorless curs that use shields, crush through, and knock down in duel. And you know what I do about it when i see people like that? remember their name, and never fight them again. there are plenty of people to duel with that have a sense of chivalry in them.
