Why do they reset the clan counter so often, how many points you earn. Why do they reset to zero so often?

Why do they reset the clan counter so often, how many points you earn. Why do they reset to zero so often? Honestly haven't paid attention to how often it resets. I think it's weekly from what I've heard, though. I think they wanted a more true representation of which clans are the most active, and having a short reset does that. It also used to be a running total of the most recent 7 days(or whatever the window was). They said that put too much of a burden on the server, so they decided to update it once a week. |

Yeah. The old method of a 10 day running total for activity cups made it impossible for both players and clan leaders to know how they were really doing. Cups dropping off your scores on day 11 caused large fluctuations in Clan rankings.
Some people may prefer the old method, but the new way actually makes everything easier to track.

...not that clan rating actually mean something other than time spent in-game.

Yeah, when "damage" equals "activity points" we all get what that means. It's just another way of saying: "Hey fella, could your bring your upgraded HELLALOT DPS gun to somewhere where's no shields around? And bots are fat, like Leo\Natasha\Vityaz\Boa fat. And there are more than 3 bots per player. Yeah, Gold must be just right!" |

I can't really think of a great way to track clan rankings to be completely honest. As long as every other ranking is based on damage, none of it will be accurate. |

Wow, you are doing something wrong with your weapons, being in Gold with 5-7. And about the damage - I think (but who gives a flying fuck about that in Pix, honestly) that it would be nice to _reward_with_silver_ only normal HP damage, but to take into account Ancile+Shield+HP when you calculate ranking. That would show who is doing their job and who is slacking. And, say, stop taking into account Ancile after second regeneration =) To stop damage cheats. |

I use alternate hangar choices often which has kept me in Gold. An old (emphasis on old, like ancient) buddy of mine named Russel got me on this theory of playing the game more for fun. So I messed around with a Spiral Patton, Punisher Rog, Spydra, Gekko Patton. All bots that were fun at times but didn't necessarily lead to many wins. That Russel guy is a good guy.. |

Always wondered about Punisher Rog - is it good? And yeah, I guess ancient people tend to give strange advice now and then - most probably due to Alzheimer =) I am sure @heavypanda won't approve running around with lvl6-7 weaponry. (Maybe that's why I am using 6-7 hangar right now, just to bugger him a little bit )) |

We have a saying here in the US called "You do you". Do you have a similar expression? I am reminded of a favorite quote of mine about ships passing in the night: "Hail and farewell, fellow traveler For the great dark is too deep and the distance is too vast... We will never meet, you and i, Therefore I pause, and raise a glass to you." Point being, you will never run into my gear, both due to great server and skill disparity! |
