Set ranks for certain levels of skill - not based on percentage

Overall skill = kill to death ratio + win/loss ratio (higher numbers is better. for instance 2 means twice as many kills as deaths)

an average overall skill then would be 2 - meaning the same number of deaths and kills. As well as the same number of wins and losses.

Ranks would be determined as overall skill

Fleet Admiral - Overall skill > 6
Admiral - Overall skill >5.5
Vice Admiral - Overall skill >5
Rear Admiral (UH) - Overall skill > 4.5
Rear Admiral (LH) - Overall skill >4
Captain - Overall skill >3
Commander - Overall skill >2.5
Lieutenant Commander - Overall skill >2
Lieutenant - Overall skill >1.5
Lieutenant JG - Overall skill >1
Ensign - Overall skill <1

and I would keep the enlisted ranks the same.

Facts about this ranking system
-------------------------------
Anybody could be a Fleet Admiral
Playing more wont necessarilly bring your rank up
If you stopped playing for a while, your rank wouldnt go down
Since stats start at enlisted ranks, newcomers wouldnt have great overall skill
Your rank would go up for killing and winning rounds
A problem however that just came to my mind, if this were the ranking system, people could play with ensigns and get thier overall rank up. To eliminate this I say, only have the ranked room in the rank specific rooms (captains only, ensigns only, etc.)

So thats my IDEA, i dont know if it would work, but it seems good to me.

this is actually a well tohught out ideal i agree with you but also i still think the battle feild 2 modern combat ranking sysytem is good and the poeple thast said that the rank^s would just sit there getting free kills w/e let them rank^ but you can tell if they do i mean if you have the requirments and the skill anyone could be a 5 star on that game

I'll take any one of you guys' ideas, anything is better than what they have now. Everyone tells me not to worry about rank but it matters a lot to me. Without a ranking system games get boring and pointless. I need to have something to shoot for. But with the way it is now.......

thats the dumbest **** ever. you should be judged on what you do, scoring the most kills in a round, coming back and winning when its 1 vs 4, capturing control points, survival streaks, headshots etc.


so if your the last guy left, and 5 opponents are left and u win, u should get points, **** like that. But it doesnt matter, the ranking s ystem in this game rewards nothing and its absolute ********.

the ranking system is rubbish, like the game

Wouldn't your plan make the rank system just like Socom 2's? Socom 2's ranking system was as bad as Socom 3's because of all the rank-up.

Socom 2's ranking system is fine. PPL could rank up easy because of how easy it was to make accounts (no verification required). There would be a lot less R^ in S3 because of account verification. Not saying it wouldn't happen, just not nearly as often, so it wouldn't totally hose everyone elses rank.

No matter what you try to do, a ranking system will always have flaws. People who don't want to work hard for their rank will always find a way to get it easily. Trying to fix something that can't be fixed is just stupid. What can be done is to come up with a more efficient ranking system than the current one. Sure, it won't get rid of the rank-ups, but at least it will work better than the current one. Your rank would go up if you won, killed, and completed objectives. Your rank would go down when you lost or died. That isn't a proposal of my ranking system, for I do not have one, but this is what we, as players, expect from a ranking system, something that credits the good players and discredits the bad.
