mmm.... depends on who you fight, really. Beating higher ranks gives more points, and losing to lower ranks loses more.

Which means losing to anyone when you're high rank really sucks, but it's w/e.

I think you should just lose the amount you would've won.

The idea is that a higher ranked person will whup your butt more often, so it evens out.

Realistically, it'd be flawed no matter what.

Be happy you’re not a U rank, if you’re U or higher and you lose to a LR you’ll lose a 1000 points.

And thats why Rank is for Masochists....

LoL.... thats probably where Dark Souls got the idea for Dropping XP upon death.

It takes 10 matches to lose your mind playing low ranks whose rank doesn't accurately represent their skill, but only one match with a booster to realize it never mattered to begin with.

This post reminded me I just hit U-, which is not good lol

I don't think it's a big issue to lose that many points. When you're at a certain rank like A or higher, you shouldn't be losing many fights to begin with if you're that good, so I think it's fair you lose more points. Realistically, A and higher ranks shouldn't be losing at all, and I think the penalty should be greater if you lose to lower ranks in DOA6

The penalty shouldn’t be bigger, rank is already a huge grind in LR. It’s easy to talk when you’re a low rank yourself.

Excuse me? XD I'm low rank because I can't play online atm, if I could play trust me I would be able to grind but then again high rank doesn't necessarily equate actual skill. I still think if you lose to a lower rank, you should have more points deducted, but more or so since you should be fighting rank players at your rank or higher. When I'm at a high rank, I'm only playing people my rank

Yes, excuse you. You say that now but if you wait for like 10+ min to find someone of your own rank and he cancels you, you’ll talk differently. For 1 rank win you only get 75 RP. If you lose 1000 points and gain 75 for a win it takes more than 10 fights to get your points back. It can easily put you in a loop of not gaining any rank points and stay on a status quo

Here's what I find reeeaally silly. I lost to a higher rank, lost 250CP. Then I beat them, I only gained 85CP.

I wouldn't mind tbh, I can wait but hey in DOA6 that won't be an issue so eh xD and I suppose I can see your point, hopefully DOA6 fixes that but I'm fine with more points deducted against lower ranks. Plus if you play alot you can earn them back quick if you're good which I know you are
