A crazy, crazy idea.

I dont really like this idea.
I love playing with my friends and thats why I play, I dont really care about being with the "better" players,
Even if this would happen I would betray my team that i was drafted to and go play with my actual team.

 

I really liked the thought that was put into this, although I feel as if most of the players on here don't like changes. Especially ones that make things a bit more complex. Great idea, but I don't think anyone is ready for such an interesting idea. If I still played I'd probably dislike this idea, just my input

 

As Luigi has said above, I really like the concept you have developed here and it truly is an interesting idea that could be played about with. However, I just can't seeing it working realistically due to a few reasons:

• It would be difficult for us as staff to enforce this as, ultimately, we can not tell people who to team and play with - that's the players' choice.
• If it were to work, it would probably need some sort of team plugin to work alongside it, otherwise I just can not see players sticking to this (Players who have been "drafted" will just want to return to their old team)

I've also recognised that the bias in teams at the moment is something that could be changed in WarZ, but in my opinion this is a bit too-complex! Really like the concept however, perhaps it could be done in like a 48 hour event or something??

 

I like the idea a lot too, but I don't like the idea of being parted from my friends :0 I play warz because I playing with my friends, not their skill level. I could probably join a really good team with the best players on warz, but I would prefer to stay with the people I've known the longest. I would never play WarZ again if I had to be separated from ryguy, snax, kayci, danny, or gummy. Although as greenpeas said it would be really fun to do for an event.
Here's something that I was going to propose.
Should /team come back? I'm going to make a poll on it right now.
Keep up the good ideas pop!

I'd like this idea, but we're not players in your fantasy football career. We team with people based on our personality.

 

I love the creativity! I really do.
Unfortunately, no. I agree that some teams are bigger than others, but there are more ways to fix that. I personally do not like this because it would force people to not be hanging out with our friends. I mean unlike sports we are the ones paying to keep this game alive. I recommend joining public chanels and using your people skills to recruit players to your team.

 

This is interesting nonetheless, and it's great to see you taking charge in trying to suggest changes but this will not work out. I haven't played WarZ "competitively" as you would call it in over a year, I play now not caring how many people are in my team. I enjoy playing with friends.

Also, playing with better players does not make you a better player. Playing in a bad team shows the most improvement, as I have gotten worse over the past year because I have been in an excellent team the entire time.

 

Don't get me wrong, this idea is interesting. It's unique, but probably would be best for a new mode designed for "competitive" play, with a ranking system and teams are decided periodically.

1. Putting bad players with good teams would require direct, objective, judgement on players' skill. That alone is controversial enough, since stats alone aren't a very good indicator and people have different opinions. The WarZ community especially takes itself extremely seriously, and declaring that certain players are better than others. Picking skill via community is also a very bad idea, since popular players would get ranked higher than unpopular but skilled players. It would result in a "beauty" contest, where factors beyond skill would decide who was ranked higher.
2. This would result in sharp playerbase decrease, guaranteed. Players who are less skilled than the more skilled players who are forced into teams with skilled players would get harassed and bullied by the better players nonstop. Being an unskilled player who was fortunate enough to find a team who played the game for fun rather than taking it seriously, I avoided most of this. My team, however, was not the best. If I were put in teams with more competitive players, I surely would have left pretty quickly. Especially because of the face that most unskilled players are unskilled because they aren't competitive, forcing unskilled players into teams with very skilled players would result in the noncompetitive players leaving soon after being put into a team. Even some skilled players might leave, since being forced into a team with unskilled players would make them want to leave the team. Any skilled player who might want to leave would be pushed to leave even more.
3. WarZ players are nothing like an NFL player roster. New players join and leave constantly, and how would these players be sorted? They couldn't be put into already made teams, because they would be undrafted and would leave and join randomly, leaving that team at a disadvantage to other teams. They couldn't be put into their own teams because they would be far worse than the other teams. The number of players in those teams couldn't be increased, because when the players in them got better, they would have a large advantage over other teams.
4. You overestimate "all WarZ players." It's true that many players are capable of clutching a 1v4, many players know how to combo, but not all. There certainly are bad players, and it's unrealistic and unobservant to say that all WarZ players are decent or capable of clutching. The number of players who could clutch a 1v4 would be even further decreased, since the worse players would be pitted against the best players, who would usually be the last to die. It's true that 1v4s would be less common, but they would be vastly more unfair.
5. This doesn't fit very well with WarZ's style and history. This would be a huge change to the working of the game, and there is no set precedent to this. WarZ is about community (although it's not a very good one), and forcing interaction is a surefire way to ruin the community even more.

This thread also leaves a few of questions unanswered.

• How often would a draft be held? It has to be periodically, so new players have a chance at getting into teams.
• What would be done to prevent players from mass voting on alt accounts?
• Would there be a way for players to play with friends rather than forced teammates?

 

Me like

 

the idea is great and all with good intent but theres some issues

the staff barely enforce cheaters or any rule breakers for that matter. besides this, there are cases where unnecessary enforcement of rules that dont exist occur as well. how would u expect this sort of staff team to enforce a network of fixed teams with both bad and good players in it? what's stopping people from just leaving and joining back with their friends or other people who theve decided to team with?

 

As the teaming system proved, this would never work.

People would just not team with their actual teammates or simply ally with other teams/players.

 

I wonder how i came into play for this

 

Thanks,
And way too confusing to understand for me.

 

I have no team so yes
