I haven't been paying attention since 2.9 launched, but what's the state of LQ and tanking after the 2.9 update?
Were rewards in LQ (if it even exists now) cut down as Pix announced before the update? Does tanking even hav a point now?

LQ still exists will full rewards as non-LQ. Tanking seems less now and I have seen the squads that usually drop out fight for the first time.

I was wondering the same thing. I've also seen a lot less leavers lately

I think between this forum putting a moratorium of sorts on tanking and the news of upcoming changes to LQ, that they've gone further underground with their efforts as well as lost some members to actualy playing the game as it was meant to be played.
Also, the new points system is really slinging people around the league tiers atm as well, so there's also adjustment from that too to consider.

There's probably less members here than one multi chapter clan of collective gold farmers. Some Chinese and Vietnamese clans run close to 30 chapters. |

I meant why we're not reading more about tanking currently, not that this forum's moratorium of sorts is truly affecting vast swathes of gameplay. (Obligatory, not that there's anything wrong with this forum CYA statement  ) |

I think the -22 points for bottom place for the losers team has had an effect. I didn't realize it had been brought in for this reason and I think it's working. As it takes much longer to climb and much quicker to drop I think its become and effective disincentive. I really like the new points system as it means I'm not yo-yo ing up and down as much. To be fair I seem to be doing a lot of winning at the moment, and winning gold with it, probably at least 50+ yesterday day and 23 in the first 5 games today (this is over an above the daily tasks) so it all feels really good to me.

Well I have to say I am an exception to other experiences expressed here. I find that there are a lot more faders now during the times I play. Not unusual to find a fader in 90% of matches in one or both teams. The occasional tanker is still present but certainly more faders which gives the same result in the end (without LQ penalty).

Totally agree. The -22 reward is a tasty loot that has brought a tide of players moving like a headless chicken and shooting everywhere... (without aiming, I mean). |
