    Great idea everyone

    "They won't know matchmaking is an issue, if everyone's rep levels are hidden"

    That's the idea you are giving to ubisoft. The majority of high rep levels aren't trash like some you that posted. I'm rep 4 now. I remember going into 4v4 and seeing nothing but purple and gold on the other side. While my side had 1 purple and white. Yeah that's ********. I don't even mind when lower ranked players quit. I know how it felt. If people are getting their *** kicked, at least let them know why. Without a ranked system, the rep levels are the closest thing we have to judge someone's potential. I hope they stay until they employment a ranked system.

    So the only possible reason people lose is because they've been out geared?

    We're talking duels here as well btw, you know where gear score doesn't matter...

    Why do some people consider rep 6+ as high rep?

    The game always uses the same loading screen for all game modes, so it's obv. that you're going to see it, but i'm either fine with an option to hide it, if it's a choice to make in the game's settings - that way everybody remains happy.

    Just don't remove it straight flat out because somebody demands it - let the players do the choice if they want it displayed or hidden.

    As for rage quitters wasting our precious time, i have the best idea ever about that and i wonder why noone ever suggested that before:

    How about you implent a mechanism that prevents the host from leaving the match?

    That way quitters could still quit, if they oh so much desire doing so, (it is there loot and XP miss) but at least the session would NOT crash and could be played till the end for/by everybody that chooses to stand and fight - how about that?

    Plus i think that way the connection would also become a bit more stable in general, since the game doesn't (try to) switch the host back and forth everytime somebody leaves.
    I'd say if you are host and you leave, the game pauses you while finding another host and once host is transferred then it allows you to leave game. However this wouldn't solve straight system turn offs

    Because about 3% of the playerbase have reached Rep 5+ according to the achievement for doing so.

    Terrible idea, I enjoy seeing a high rep opponent in my duels then seeing how terrible they actually are (typical 4s players). Does this community cry about everything?

    Eh, it's difficult for me to care about this. Time investment is not necessarily indicative of skill; anyone who isn't a fool knows this.

    I don't really see a point to displaying the rep level at all in any game mode. It's only indicative of approx time played for that one warrior and only for that particular copy of the game. It mostly just provides fuel for trolling and complaining.

    Nowhere did I say that's the only way people lose. The **** are you going on about. My post applies to duels as well, you know where matchmaking is still an issue... rep 4+ players probably shouldn't be matched against rep 0 players. Even considering that people pick their characters after being matched up, game time is not considered. My first match on this game I was matched with a rep 2. Second match, a rep 4. Seeing the rep levels allowed to me call out on the ********.

    I would like this. I'm a Rep 30 Lawbringer but i don't dare to touch duels with him. It is very stressful playing when people have expectations of me.
