Pantheon = Quiters = No Exp = No Rank

By OrleanKnight on May 13, 2009 11:25:43 PM from Demigod Forums Demigod Forums

   Alright, I've been playing Pantheon all day long, and I don't have a rank. I have 7 Victories, straight in a row, but nothing to show for it. This is because I've noticed that Rank is determined by Experience Points, not Win/Loss ration. The major flaw in the system is that when you battle AIs, you don't get Experience Points. So I've been playing against players all day, but when they start losing, they leave - and I get stuck with an AI who doesn't give me Exp. It's really becoming very agrivating, because I would like to be on the latter with a rank.

Rank only updates once a day (at midnight) and you do indeed get experience for AI, unless something was changed since last pantheon.

But you are corect, it is a flawed system. Players give far more ELO weighting than bots. You could play 50 games against AI and still be be out ranked by someone who played 15 against humans, especially if they were higher ranked players.

Yes AIs give expeience.  Stats are updated every 24 hours.  Be patient and check tomorrow, or in 15minutes when it is 12pm EST.

I'm not arguing with your point since I don't know how EXP works but if all 7 games were today, panth. page only updated at midnight EST.  SO you wont see those stats till tomorrow.

 

edit: wow 3 post in the time it took me to log in and reply.

Pantheon does not always record properly. It's missed out on over half my wins -- worse, it gave some of them to me as losses!

Funny, the one match where someone stays in. I kill um, I get experience, and it INSTANTLY updates rankings after the game is done.

Yes it really counts some wins as looses. 1 match i had 2 days before patchday was, i won a 3on3 by crushing their Citadel and a spalshscreen with "Defeated" came up... that really sucks. But cannot say what about now, after the patch.

 

Hope my english isn't too bad
