Okay, here goes...

 

 

For all listed users today (minus the ones without updates, and plus the ones which were dropped form the list but had updates), R² for linear correlation between

 

 

• rating and experience: 0.34
• rating and K/D: 0.21
• rating and crystal/experience: 0.21
• rating and supplies/hour: < 0.05
• rating and crystal/supply: < 0.05

 

 

This is noisy. However, I see a straight line through all the low ranks (about 3000 x rank number). What if we look at everyone below the Gizmo rank?

 

 

• rating and experience: 0.95 (! It's your rank. If you want to know your rating, and you're not at the top of the ranks, basically look at the average for your rank. It will be within a few percent from that. We would need to see hundreds more ratings to have a chance of seeing past this.)
• rating and K/D: 0.21
• rating and crystal/experience: 0.45 (but keep in mind that this ratio goes up linearly with rank)
• rating and supplies/hour: < 0.05
• rating and crystal/supply: 0.18

 

 

This rating is rather uninteresting for those who look forward to unlocking equipment at a future rank. We can go away until we're big enough to have a rank party. Even M3 users must follow the leader on ranks for a while. Enough about us peasants; what if we look at everyone at Gizmo or a Legend rank?

 

 

• rating and experience: <0.01 (and it shouldn't matter at this level anyway)
• rating and K/D: 0.15
• rating and crystal/experience: 0.67
• rating and supplies/hour: < 0.01
• rating and crystal/supply: 0.13

 

 

This is correlation, not causation. However, it means that if you're a Gizmo with a high K/D, catch a lot of golds, win a lot of matches, and do this without absolutely spamming the drug keys, then you're probably a great Tanki player according to this rating. That's hard to argue in general. There are possibly specific edge cases (Isida, pure-play gold hunters, playing with regular teammates with Skype), but it seems that those who consistently win Gizmos/Legends-only battles have the highest ratings. That sounds great.

 

 

Like your work..!

 

I guess most readers here won't know what R² is - had to check myself, since my high school days ended a long time ago.

 

So to understand what factors determine one's rating, you assume rating to be a function of for instance K/D (or Cry/EP, etc.) and then try a linear approximation of this function..? R² close to 1 means the approximation is good (e.g. according to your stats, for low ranks the rating is almost linearly increasing with EP, R² = 0.95), close to 0 it means the correlation is poor..

I smell formula update. This K/D ratio is just bollocks.

And the bollocks just got a load more.

Just another failed update imo.

 

 

 

Or maybe ^ this guy just gets destroyed more than Kasim because he hasn't learned to turn his turret yet. As a result, he gets more rating points for being more noobish!

This includes some hardcore buyers, heavy supply users and people with tons of experience (>19 million..!). Could be interesting for your stats, @Sergeant808..

I have observed one thing.

Now Crystals earned through Gold Boxes and Mission rewards don't influence the Rating.

Before recent rating system Crystals and Exp earned through Premium acc were not added in rating but now being added, so now players with Premium account will get better rating..

Easy for buyers.. :)

[rocketmonkey2015 61]

It is true that Tanki doesn't count every crystal earned on an account.

For example, on my alt account @halbarandthepaladin I have more than 80k crystals (from contests, I have never bought anything in Tanki), but in my profile it says that I have earned only 33k :( .

[AbsoluteZero 3,729]

It is true that Tanki doesn't count every crystal earned on an account.

Below is a graph of a player here showing the daily +/- values of the crys/ep ratio.

eg, on the 18th the daily crys/ep ratio was 17.6 higher than the overall crys/ep ratio figure

 

 

the first spike is for a 40k rank up and the other is for a super-mission.

 

These gave significant boosts to their overall rating.

If these are no longer going to be counted then the top players will start showing signs of decline, probably playing less and less to minimise the blow of a constantly decreasing rating. Of course it will take many months for anyone to see any real significant changes.

 

It will be a good thing if only battle funds are only counted from now on, ie, no gold boxes, missions, legend rankups or friend related, (invited users), boosts.

 

Maybe someone here, a helper or a dev can confirm these?

[The_Pakistani 16,768]

premium reward boosts R IMO

Okay! Fine.. The best players deserve to get better ratings :)

I'm not going to ponder over this R..

If crystals earned through Premium count as part of the crystals earned in total, that's a real pity. Even in case of buying top equipment, players still have to be able to play well with it to obtain an good rating. Crystals bonuses through Premium on the other hand are just a free boost to the Cry/EP ratio and hence the rating of players spending money.

 

It would have been nice if only the crystals earned in battle counted, i.e. neither crystals earned through Premium nor through rank ups or missions. In that case, the Cry/EP ratio and resulting rating would be a good measure for the efficiency / success of a player. The way it seems to be now, it's a huge advantage for players investing real money. Only a matter of time for players who are not buyers to go down in the ratings..

Yes, profiles are lame now. Top 500 will be full of buyers for sure.

Don't know you've observed one more thing or not

Which is less battle funds since yesterday's server restart..

[a7x_Pedro48 13,999]

Maybe they reduced the amount of crystals for killing a Legend.

 

Also, Twins are self destructing a lot now. So it makes less funds.

 

I will check tonight. I have not played yet today.

Don't really follow your reasoning why somebody with a good rating would play less to preserve it, if crystals from missions or rank ups are not counted anymore. This change affects everybody in the game, meaning that everybody's Cry/EP ratio and hence rating coefficient will drop (this could already be seen looking at stats of players in the opening post throughout the last week), so the relative position in the ranking for a player will remain similar.

 

On the other hand, a big game changer is if bonus crystals from Premium accounts are counted. Given players with similar abilities, somebody without Premium will never be able to touch a Premium player when it comes to Cry/EP ratio..

[AbsoluteZero 3,729]

well you know I never used the word preserve so... but we'll see eh won't we?

 

With regard to premium, I'm all for fairness but I don't see anyone making a case for those lesser ranks who are penalised simply because of their level.  Speaking of which, I wonder why you haven't included the rank of each player on page one. It's impossible for someone at rank level 10 to be in the top part of the list so why not reflect that too. It won't take that much glory from you and rank level is obviously part of the calculation. Also, the lesser ranks' battefunds are already handicapped compared to that of the higher ranks as they grow a lot slower making it difficult to achieve a decent cry/ep ratio without help. Maybe that should be fixed too while we're at it.

[Lightning78 285]

You said "[..] top players [..] probably playing less and less to minimise the blow of a constantly decreasing rating [..]" - preserve is pretty synonymous to that. I notice you haven't addressed the argument I made - not surprised..

For each player experience points are shown, rank level is included through that. Obviously rank/EP plays a big role for the lower ranks (as shown by Sergeant808 in a nice post.) and it's impossible to have a top rating according to the new formula as a low rank..

Sounds like you still haven't realised this topic is not about bragging with high ratings or denigrating players who don't have a great rating.. 

[AbsoluteZero 3,729]

No, it's not. You know full well that for some players to stay on top longer, all they have to do is play less. If they want to preserve it, they'd not play at all and I didn't suggest that. Got it?

Play for missions only and play with much higher rankers and be on the winning team and try to get crystal earning missions.

 

It's killing my D/L but I get rewarded so much I've been able to afford Northerner twice now a third time sort of. (I can get it during the sales coming up)

 

My crystal ratio, as CooperO told me is 1.096 when it should be below 1.00 at my ranks.

 

I have a full guide in the amateur writer's section, but being a Legend I doubt you'll need such advice since you probably know everything that's in my guide already to making crystals as a free player.

[AbsoluteZero 3,729]

This is indeed the thing to do since Hazel made the changes giving less emphasis to k/d. Good advice to low/mid rankers.
