[QUOTE=Atlascore;49457119]Holy fuck, just got back into playing the game regularly, got my competitive rank back and it placed me as GN.. I fell down all the way from MG! Then I lost one game and fell down another rank to SEM.. Did I really get that rusty? I only took a couple months long break. :cry:[/QUOTE] The ranks were recently adjusted by Valve and people were dropped lower down, if you were innactive and had to be ranked again then your rank will be even lower. By the way did Valve ever announce that they did this or did they just expect everyone to figure it out? There are a few people I know who stopped playing because they dropped 3 ranks.

I've gone from Supteme to LE back to Supreme It's been a roller coaster
Do you guys think I can do a warm-up/improve with Expert bots?
[QUOTE=Spectre1406;49458970]Do you guys think I can do a warm-up/improve with Expert bots?[/QUOTE] If you want to warm up with bots. I recomend Aim Botz or something similar. This is my go to map for warming up when using bots: [URL="https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=531063282"]https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=531063282[/URL]
[QUOTE=Spectre1406;49458970]Do you guys think I can do a warm-up/improve with Expert bots?[/QUOTE] I found this map very good, since the bots keep coming and you're really training your muscle memory this way.

My friend's cousin was Nova 3 before the update, and was saying shit like "I am finally getting good", now he is Silver 4 and is quitting the game. I am just happy I can have Global as a goal again.
I decided to play a MM match for the first time in 2 months to get my old LEM rank back, but instead I got this [img]http://i.imgur.com/5E8Zg20.jpg[/img] wtf volvo, thanks for dropping me 6 ranks down for no particular reason

[QUOTE=rider695;49459173][B]Enjoy the moral high-ground smurfing[/B], or realize you're mg1.[/QUOTE] Ranks are seriously fucked right now. I played another match after that one with the same team and we 0-16'd the other team. Their top fragger was GN3 and he had 25 kills lol

Also, you were inactive for 2 months, so a bit of rank dropping is expected, the shift just amplified that.

I am just happy I can have Global as a goal again.[/QUOTE] I'm unhappy for the same reason. I just wanted to play one game every 28 days and have a shiny globe.
I went on a spending spree - got a Stat-Trak version of every skin I enjoy (that's a reasonable price) for every weapon except knife. Goal complete (ish, still want to get a luxury knife eventually and maybe upgrade some of my Stat-Traks into better ones).
wow ok russians are definitely 'something' in this game. I pretend not to understand any word they say but in reality I get all of it and it hurts listening to the gibberish they say and how a guy uses knife only for three rounds straight and us losing the match.

So eagle is no longer a huge skill range, supreme is no longer filled of absolute fucking retards who clearly are not at that skill level and global is now the best of the best like it should be. MM rank means little, stop with the "I'm better than this so I deserve it" attitude, if you want the "old" rank back, go improve yourself so you fall inside the new skill group.

OMG Where's my deserved global fuck volvo I get hax now.
oh my god, I either have an absolute trash of a game and my team can't do anything, or we dominate and win easily.

I have absolutely no problem working my way up again, since it's pretty much "high morale smurfing" as stated by rider695. All I was stating is how screwed up valve's ranking systems currently are, since I was placed in a bracket much lower than my usual teammates of the same skills, and have also encountered enemies which obviously did not belong into their current skill bracket either. You don't have to be an ass about it.
To be honest, it came across as complaining about your rank because of the way you worded it.

Though then again they might always be a thing. It is pretty tiring to have people constantly go "OH FOR FUCKS SAKE WHY AM I X NOW I USED TO BE Y AND I STILL BELONG IN Y" so people become near automatically asses about rank discussion.

For some reason, people seem to get thrown off when you shoot from close to the doors as well
