But it does give a rough indication. For example, I've never seen someone with 10M SP be better than someone with 40M SP.

It should be off your win loss ratios the only stat that actually matters who cares about kdr, wp, sp, as long as you secure the win, one day cpp might actually make that the objective of the game how cool would that be |

It shouldn't. You know There's lots of people who leave losing battles. That would not work. Also, not everyone always wins.
Actuall skill points are the most effective source to use to distinguish players.

I joined the 50MILL+ Club a few days ago.
I got killed by a Frontline that was a recruit as stated by his rank.
The shame is eternal...

I have like 85 M and I am pretty bad most of the time.
Acquisition is terrible, matchmaking is terrible, your game is still riddled with bugs, you should feel bad.

That's because win loss doesn't have much meaning currently and there's no penalty for leaving the match like a leaving stat that could effect what kinda games you can get into or the leaver just has to take a loss.
As for sp they can give you a greater advantage but there are some mercs who no mater how much sp they have acquired still are bad at the game or just make terrible choices on how to spend them.
The most effective way to actually distinguish players I think would be lifetime wp but I'm just making a suggestion here since I do agree that the current matchmaking system is pretty bad but it's better than nothing . |

SP, that thing that accumulates passively should be used to rank peoples skill? WP/death would be a far better way to determine any players general usefulness to their team.

I think it should be KDR. I don't care how many SP you have. If you put me down, you're better than me and vice versa. W/L is nice, but it's too easy to pad by leaving fights, or only playing with squads. Sure you can KDR pad by sniping, but the better the players chances are they'll be able to counter snipers better. Similarly, can be made by just being a logi. At it's heart Dust is a shooter, so the most accurate way to determine skill is how well you shoot.

I'm sorry but... GET GOOD. I don't know how you can have LOTS of sp and not be good. The first ripe you should master in dust is slayer because it's what most of the game is about. If you can't survive, I'm sorry.

The tier should be based on what suit you are willing to use. If a person is using a basic suit then fine. If they're truly good then let their skill show. In order to facilitate this there should be match slots. Maybe two slots that you select a fit for. You will then queue for your highest tier fitting and can only use those fittings for that match. Vehicles could then be counted as a fitting slot and you spawn in the vehicle. You've just solved another problem of scrubs double dipping and jumping out of vehicles with AV.
Right now the protostomping so called good players are moving to MD, REs, PLCs and grenade spam in commando suits to hide their lack of skill. I'm seeing nothing but heavy suits and/or spaming explosive AOE weapons and kepeing distance. No fun game anymore now that noobs can stack and pack on the objective like the vets.

NO! That is not the answer. It goes beyond that and this simplistic mentality is killing the game. It becomes boring and predictable.

Not much in this game is more fun than downing a prototype suit user in pubs with standard / militia gear and then terminating their clone. So much money down the drain. 
Sure I don't do it much but it'd suck to never be able to do it at all because of Scotty. |
