Also reached reached tier 3 but only received tier one rewards!!!! I am extremely ticked off!!!! I reached an excess of 7k credits per hour and and I played everyday during the global event for HOURS (even took time off work) to only receive tier one rewards???? My 11 year old son played for 3 hours total (maybe 4 to 5 missions) and we received the same rewards..... slap in the face.
Same. This clearly shows I was in the top 2% of all players and even if you use an arbitrary cutoff like 1,000 points to be eligible i should be in the top 4%. I received bottom tier rewards.

There are too many reports of people grinding their souls out only to report low leaderboard placement. This has even happened in groups that started grinding together yet one member of the team will have a vastly lower leaderboard score at the end of a run.
The problem may be twofold: a "Massive" misstep in explaining a key element of leaderboard tracking and possibly a glitch inside the tracker itself.
One of these problems can be very quickly addressed by adding a slide to the Global Events Officer unambiguosly showing how you initiate your hourly GE earnings tracking. Are Global Event earnings per hour based on the countdown timer or does the hour start the moment you earn Globa Event tokens from a valid source?
Or less simply, by showing your hourly earnings calculated in real time during a Global Event next to the countdown clock that shows time remainging in the Current Global Event.
The other solution involves going under the hood of the Global Event code and double checking Everything.
Not fun either way.
Now that I have offered a "solution" here's my problem: I have three characters in The Division and I play Last Stand Mode alot with them to try different non-meta ways to play...BTW running Shield/Shock turret can be a thing of beauty.
Long story short, I opened a bunch of last stand caches with all of my characters (because I heard GE earnings were calculated cross account), then ran Hudson Refugee Camp repeatededly for maximum GE credits.
By my calculations I should have landed in mid second tier, at least.
I heard the leaderboards were bugged so I have video thanks to PS4's clip saving ability if anyone at Ubi/Massive wants to see the proof of my math.
So, thanks to all the guys/gals behind the scenes here at the forums who pass along our complaints to the people that tweak the engine behind the scenes at Massive.
At the end of the day, I Love this game, and its easy for the haters (*Dab*) to mock my love of this game. But they dont get it, this is the Splinter Cell MMO we will never get. Much like the Dark Knight, its arsenal can adapt to become what is needed.
