How about we punish people who admit to not putting their best effort into winning in ranked matches? If you want to play casually, go play Quick Play. If you can't play with decent people in Quick Play and still want to play casually, then, well, too bad. Ranked matches in any game should be reserved for people whose driving desire is to win, not to have fun fucking around.

Has there ever been a stranger, more incomprehensible game than Cricket? Except maybe Whackbat?

Your version of football is as alien to us in the UK as cricket is to you guys I guess? We grow up with it, while we have to actually be taught what the hell is going on in "American Football", and then only if we're interested. That said, the various rules for when two sides draw or win based on rain calling off play blows my mind to this day.

Nah, even as a German (the real football) and the US football are easily understood. But Cricket.. I honestly can't even grasp. I watched a few hours of it and never even understood how a win was allotted, it seemed random and not based on what I saw the previous 2 hours... and that's really strange.

Does the series simulate driver strops? Or warn you that your place is under threat by inferior drivers (who are bringing sponsorship money with them)

Cant say i regularly watch F1 any longer. Doesnt hold a candle to the older racing days. (Note. Could be rose tinted glasses though, im sure there used to be more racing and overtaking...)

whereas at least in large scale BF type games, you can have a few jokers goofing off without ruining the server.

The issue was compounded in Season 2 because of the whole 'three times as many points gone in a loss than than gained in a win' issue many folks were having. IDK if they ever fixed that.

That and the toxicity in even low-rank competitive was growing insane. I mean people screaming

Dirt Rally is an arcade game. It's as plain as I can put it. Sure you can fiddle around a lot and the graphics are nice, but the actual cars behave nothing like the real thing, there are so many "invisible" assists, that you BTW can't turn off, in the game that it doesn't even deserve the simulator moniker.

It would be nice if they allowed back-fills for comp games, just make it so the back-fill couldn't lose SR; maybe make it a user option.

I can't deal with racing on a closed track, doing laps and laps. I find it very boring. I like more open road racing from point to point at locations. I hope this one has more of that.

From what I hear they've dumbed down the physics from Dirt Rally and content is lacking, which is a shame.

Not sure where the content is lacking

Here's a quote from the eurogamer review:

but, Wales aside, none of them stir the soul quite like Dirt Rally's Finland, Greece or Monaco. The absence of iconic stages such as Sweet Lamb, the Col de Turini - and, for that matter, Pike's Peak - really hurts Dirt 4. No amount of randomly generated content can offer an effective replacement for such legends.

Funny you quote that since that's the review I read, and the exact quote I was thinking of

It helps the ultimate, but not the McCree buff I was hoping to see. Compared to the other offensive heroes he's the least mobile, has the least survivability, and requires the most amount of mechanical skill. IMO they should increase the stun duration, or do something with his roll to give him more mobility or survivability.
