Warzone players desperate for MW3 Ranked as ‘sweats’ ruin casual games
ActivisionWarzone players are desperate for ranked to be added to Modern Warfare 3 as they’re worried players could desert the battle royale over the number of “sweats” ruining games.
Over the last few years, Warzone has faced the same issue as many other battle royales in finding the right balance between casual, fun gameplay and catering to those higher-skilled players who want to dominate everything no matter how they do it.
Many players who can only play for an hour or so at a time have, ultimately, walked away from Warzone because they’ve felt at a disadvantage. That is where a ranked system has helped separate things, allowing those more hardcore players to face off against similarly-minded foes.
Ranked has, however, always taken a bit of time to add with each new Warzone cycle, and that creates headaches as well – so much so that some players are threatening to walk away if things don’t change soon.
Warzone players want Ranked added to battle royale now
That’s right, a number of Warzone players are frustrated with the wait for ranked to be added in Modern Warfare 3 so that can go back to casual lobbies that are completely overrun by ‘sweaty’ players.
“At this point, I just straight up don’t have fun anymore. I know every time I load into a game I’m gonna get annihilated. I keep playing in the hopes that something will change, but it’s been months now and nothing has changed,” said one annoyed player. “If they don’t make whatever changes the need to make to keep the sweats in lobbies with each other and give the rest of us a chance, I feel like there’s a lot of average players like me who are just gonna stop playing for good.”
Others echoed that sentiment too. “Every single lobby for me is solely inhabited by TTV sweats, the quality of player is so much higher than I can remember it being previously,” added one.
“Ranked will take out the sweatiest of players most of the time so it should ease off,” said another. “You have a high KD so you’re in sweat lobbies. I’m in the same boat. Just wait til ranked where we can do the same thing except for points,” commented another.
Others argued that the game has barely changed in a few years, so it’s not hard for players to have honed their skills rather than just being straight-up ‘sweats’.
Ranked play launches on January 17, but it will take time for the points to be distributed and for everyone to fall into their right level. So, while it is coming soon, there may still be an annoying wait for things to settle down.
