Considering how elo rating systems work (assumes a player’s mean value over time), 10 RWZs before displaying a value seems reasonable. Within the first few games a player’s rating is likely to increase or decline significantly and, as such, showing the earlier ratings is rather pointless.

Yeah, that seems to be an issue in my mind as well. What reward is there for you to stay when your real queue pops?

Ranked Warzones fail. You can’t even get ratings until you play at least 10 RWZ games. You can’t even see other player’s ratings or stats either. With dying populations, it’s going to be even harder to get 8 people together. I’ve tried it on the test server, and it’s not that great.

Gary, good stuff man. Need to update the b-roll one of these days to actually reflect the features you’re talking about. Just have your boys on the PTS get some fraps action going.

Thats not how it works.
For Ranked WZ : spots will be reserved in a Ranked Warzone match for players who are queued, but currently in a normal Warzone. So when match is done you will be able to join the Ranked one. Thats how i read it.
