This is great news Jack! Will these updated rating simply be tweaked versions of the current ones, or can we hopefully expect a wider overall split in numbers between the elite down to the list cloggers?
From my experimenting, I’ve found gun individuals stand out more during matches when I go and lower the middle tier players, and drastically lower the lesser lights. By default, no one really dominates - it just seems random who is “in the best”.
But once a wider gulf is made across team lists, we get much more realistic games where stars shine, and players stand out due to their known attributes (ie I have Franklin and a few other long kicks at 99, but to make them stand out, have had to lower everyone else’s).
This is incredibly time consuming, and would be much better for players if done at your end!
Fingers crossed there’s a much wider spread of numbers in this update!
@ptrg This is a really tricky one for us to balance. Everyone has their own version of what a correct rating is, and there are some areas that we have to meet in this department. We try our best to give each player a high rating with the skill best associated with them, but given it's almost impossible to keep track of what every player is good at, there will be some exceptions. Rather than looking at the overall numbers, we could probably look at how effective those ratings are, in terms of the higher numbers being worth more than the mid tier. I know we do have some kind of curve in the ratings being applied but maybe it needs to be altered a little bit more to create more separation between the mid and top level players. Thanks for the feedback, I'll pass this on to the dev team to see what they think.
@Dylan7 We aren't too far off with this. We are awaiting a few things for approval, but expect it to be available very soon.
