Get ready to race to the end of the season with Competitive Drives this weekend.
Huh looks fun.
Gives people a reason to grind, but in an emotionally compelling way.
Or at least, in that direction.
It’s just cosmetic, and with enough Drives you can give your ugly namecard a make-up. You lose gain 10x as much as your won comp points, but only lose 5x as much when you lost, so you should have a net positive gain of drives. So generally not that tilting, I guess.
It’s free, but I can’t help but think when reading the title: With the condition of the game right now, players are not driven to victory; they are driven away.
I never played the new ranked system, is it around 15-20% gained per win or loss right?
So that’d mean at a 50/50 winrate you’d gain around 150-200 points per win and then you lose 75-100 per loss. So that averages out to around 75-100 points per game (slightly better actually since some of your losses will be when you’re on checkpoints and not count), so that’s around 22 games to get a gold gun? Did I do the math wrong because that seems too good to be true
uhhh yeah thats okay you can keep it
When a new Competitive Drives period begins, everyone’s Signature will be reset, and a new Signature reward will be available to earn during the following seasons.
Remember when we could earn competitive sprays and icons that is permanent? Pepperidge Farm remembers.
So the super casual cosmetic chasers are gonna b running it down mid in comp this weekend, thx for the warning
Ahh nothing like a game with just me my team and my Doom 1 trick… Annnnnnd he’s out of voice isn’t he? Sigh
It’s not a reward if you take it away.
Stop being lazy and just put in the extra effort every 6 months to make a new Signature.
PLEASE GIVE OUT PROPER GAMEPLAY REWARDS FOR CASUAL MODES!
Just bring back legacy cosmetic containing earnable lootboxes for leveling up our profile or the free track on the battle pass! With maybe a 1-25-50-100 coins per duplicate.
The complete lack of agency on what people can unlock is simply soul-crushing and makes grinding the game pointless
but that would mean playing the most toxic version of the game?
Cant bring lootboxes back because they are already illegal in some countries and in several its not just buying them but having them in the game in any form.
The temporary rewards don’t do much for me, but I’m all for climbing faster.

For the love of god man, stop spreading misinformation or get informed youself.
Even the strickest ones like Belgium’s legal document distinctly specify that only SELLING lootboxes for real money is gambling not the ones that can be obtained through regular gameplay mechanics.
IF randomized rewards would be illegal, every dungeon crawler, every looter shooter every mmorpg would be illegal.
Randomized rewards for time-investments ARE NOT ILLEGAL
zzzzz
Yet another reward for comp-only players, which isn’t even permanent. F2P games are such jokes.
Pushing competitive because they know it’s the best experience.
No. I am going to get ready to take a break to the end of the season.
Cool, so avoid the game this weekend. The fact you can lose progress in an already unbalanced game with horrible matchmaking, no thanks. Not worth the pitiful rewards
Yea 20-21% usually for a win and I think like 19% for a loss, unless modifiers like “expected”, “win streak”, etc. I’ve had +71% after bad decay getting back to rank.
wait i just realized, isn’t the optimal gold gun farming now to derank before drives so you can grind out the drives quickly?
