SkyFix 5 Posted March 7, 2020 (edited) So I am currantly stuck between Silver and Gold, an idea came to mind where if we had another threat level, this would make it easier to have a precise threat for some players Let me introduce: Master/Pink threat This would be a new threat above gold and will be needing double the experience then what it takes to get gold.

NotZombieBiscuit 3146 Posted March 9, 2020 A new threat level/colour does not do anything. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BIank 109 Posted March 10, 2020 They will eventually be reworking matchmaking and removing threat levels. I imagine it will be some sort of SBMM implementation. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That could be a solution too. But adding an additional threat will make players come back as they 'redid' the levels, new players will try to get it and play even more.

LilyRain 669 Posted March 10, 2020 We'll further lose 10% of the current Silver-population due to increased toxicity towards them #SilverIsTheNewBronze -------------------------------------------- But I'll have you know.. if such a new threat exists.. it should be limited to LTL-Enforcers as they are the ones with true-skill in this game. Don't you dare ever again give fancy badges to newb pmg-criminulz. PMG-noobs shouldn't be allowed to up-threat #LTLMasterRace Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Your actual skill rating is your hidden ELO/MMR, adding another threat level does not actually effect the underyling threat level system. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
iDontThinkSo 26 Posted March 10, 2020 Ahem .... why PINK ? xD Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rat1oNRUs 70 Posted March 10, 2020 what about a rank system like rocket league? it maybe better for matchmaking no? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Zilsux Posted March 10, 2020 Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum. Pink is NOT a recognizable qualification metal. But no, I do not believe this is a good idea, after all, Ranks are being worked on to eventually be eliminated. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Xivkyn 3 Posted March 10, 2020 I like the foundation of the threat system. At a glance I can tell whether I should let him get his hands on the briefcase or not lol Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SkyFix 5 Posted March 25, 2020 Many is asking Why Pink!? And some say platinum is better, differing Platinum and Silver is hard, having it be pink will make it easy to see what threat Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Little Orbit I believe has the intention to add colour blind mode for APB once the engine upgrade is live. Platinum could be used as a light blue.

Fortune Runner 796 Posted May 20, 2020 A new threat level would not benefit but would spread the population out instead. It would actually be a major negative. I would rather wait for when it is time to do actual reworking on threat and matchmaking since the engine upgrade is needed to fix many other problems like phasing.
