Re: WAR COLLEGE Sgt_MaxPower General
He will need approx 9000 victories without a loss for the WCR.
If you dont get it before 1000 games, forget it.
Alot of my defeats came from just joining a game only to load into a map that just ended with a defeat because people jumped either out of the full server or to the winning side leaving a slot open to shaft me.
Worst still... you get called out of the game by the spouse, mommy or girlfriend (Or boy friend for the girl gamers) and the server assigns you a "LOSS" because you abandoned the game. I left the game about 800 times according to my stats for any number of reasons in real life and wonder if they were not assigned LOSSES, would I have gotten the WCR by now?
I've learned to monitor game servers and join AFTER all players show 0 scores indicating a new game.
The WCR has been discussed before and will continue to be discussed as long very few people are able to get it. The 3-1 ratio is not a proper reflection of Command ability or even any kind of skill on YOUR part. You need your team to win and it really does not matter does it??
What a waste.
As mentioned earlier in this thread the WCR does a great deal of damage to fellow players as "stat whores" jump to the winning side or intentionally stack teams to get this award. The thing that kills me laughing is how ridiculously STUPID the 3-1 requirement is and NOT reliant on something like a less than 5% teamkill, number of victories as a commander etc.
Final word: The WCR should be edited to reflect a very close partnership with the Expert Command Badge. Perhaps 25,000 Global command hours with a 1.0 or better victory added with a really heavy "Good Conduct Ribbion" type IAR limits.
What happens 6 months from now when 80% of the players are Officer Rank and can grab the Command anytime they want to? What about the poor John Public Nooblet who just made Private First Class and wants to command?? It will be a year before he gets any real time in as a commander and is reliant on the teammates for the WCR.
I highly doubt the game will be around much longer than a year or two. The WCR needs to be adjusted or it will go down in gaming history as the most useless award.
