Can % win do more harm then good?
SO i'm still relatively new i'm mostly tier 2 to 4 and fixing to break into tier 5 ranks. This was a long process on a free account and now that i'm moving into the bigger boys i'm prob going to go Premium since it seems i'm into this game long term.
That being said, Some of my tanks have win rates as high as 51% others are as low as 29% ( I recently came off the learning curve to stop rushing out in my light tank and play a little smarter :P )
The issue that worries me is people can see my % win with some kind of 3rd party mod.
Now lets face it no body starts this game swinging a 80% win ratio.. just the opposite is true. So i'm doing better now and bringing my total Win % up now, but it takes time. The problem is since i started getting into tier 4 to tier 6 matches I catch a ton of Flak from people telling me "dear good were going to lose look at that XX% win ratio that player xxxxx has. Might as well just afk at base..."
While i would say the last 25 games i played i have come out with at least 1 **** (and as many as 4 or 5) in about 50% or more. I feel i'm doing much better, but it's hard to deal with the i guess Elitism? would be the world here? of these mid range players.
So I guess i wanted to ask does anyone else feel that the % win mod (or prem feature maybe?) can do more harm then good for new/low level players? Why would you care if a tier 3 tank player has a poor ratio he is most likely still learning the game right?
Also does this get any better at higher tiers or only worse?
Thanks for any comments!
