OK as the title says you are a player good enought to have 1700+ rating
that tells to the othere that you have some skill
but do they know what you are going through and what is the reason you ragequit _
here are some questions about the 1700+ rating

edit:soz i forgot to have the options (none of the above)and(i am fortunate to have a good connection)
soz abot that.

this poll is missing a lot of reasons and seems quite biased. I was expecting to see something better.

[FussyBadger]

I recommend streamlining the poll. Make it multiple choice and provide a variety of reasons that mirror what you've seen posted elsewhere.

Right now, this poll asks, "How do you feel about lag_"

[toPOULAKItsiou]

ye soz i was in hurry and forgot 2 options
i will improove it now

[toPOULAKItsiou]

done ty for the advice.
i hope it inprooved to the beter.

[toPOULAKItsiou]

also since i got to 1700 rating and have been there for 2 days those where the MAJOR problems
that imidietly gave me a negative expirience so i posted a poll 4 those problems.
there could be more reasons 4 sure i dont think i covered them all with this post but i think
i covered the important.cause if you cant join a server and if you play with 250 ping
you gona get a terible expirience.
so i thought i atleat needed to cover those reasons in the poll

try matchmaking, it puts you in lower ranked servers, lol

You need to invest money in something - if it's not the game itself, it's the hardware or the infrastructure.

If you're lagging that badly, you clearly have a bad connection. I could have a bad connection if I didn't care but I opted for improving my connection at a modest price increase.

I usually stay for games regardless of whats happening... the only time I leave is if I have had to use quick match to join a server and it becomes quickly evident the teams doesnt really know what to do in siege.  Before I quit I always try to help the team by explaining what we need to do but when people either just collect EU and don't help the team or don't listen a few times after telling them what we need to do to win I quit and join a new server just bc siege matches can take a long time.

A lot of the time whenever I am in a server like this I am attempting to join numerous people from my friends list when I die anyways until I get into a server.  This is probably more common.. I'll join a server just to play basically while I'm waiting to join off my BL.

Players in Hawken really need to learn how to do polls. They'll have about 2~3 answers that points to one thing that they really just want to complain about (but made a poll instead) and the other 20 options are nonsense, Also, being able to select "all of the above" and "none of the above" in the same poll..

Why rage-quit_ You lose xp that way. I also play in the 1700ish bracket, I do not seem to be having the same issues that you are though. Possibly selecting match making and/or your region would improve your playing experience.

to add to my vote. unless my mech stutters though the entire match i dont quit. i just take out my rkteer or brsr and hellfire the heck out of the enemy(team based modes only). seeing a salvo of hellfire coming your way is enough to make any player dodge for cover.

anyway my point is I DONT RAGEQIUT AND I HATE RAGEQUITERS. too bad they have ONE good reason to quit eitherway

LAG LAG LAG

ow well.... when the game is out of beta they will put up more servers

right_

I've had random disconnects but never lag which means it's not the servers responsible but the client (you). An internet connection is a two-way stream of data. If you can't provide data fast enough from your end, you are the bottleneck.

If demand requires, there will be more servers I'm sure.

I admittedly ragequit in siege mode. Not because of rage, but of XP.
A winning team gets around 4000-5000 XP for simply standing at the AA. In most cases it's hard to overtake the AA. The loosing team gets around 1000 XP in the same time. It's simply not efficient to be on the loosing team.

All true. Teamwork is encouraged and amply rewarded.

The 4-5k is also a culmination of the successful EU grabs + kills/assists since they are working as a team.

I'd say it's not necessarily fair to have such a huge divide further separated by forcing the losing team to retreat back to kill the battleship only to be rewarded with maybe 20-40 experience or so. Killing a battleship should reward the same amount or just slightly less than when killed with AA since it is still an accomplishment.

This is a rubbish poll made by an angry kid. Poorly written questions and even worse answer options.

Don't feed the Troll.

[Elquinox]

Hawken's simply a beautiful game, I just don't rage quit.

The only part that's rough is when advanced players new to Seige join a Seige game. Only 1 player can ruin a match with early launches, ect. May I advise a separate player rating for each match type or at least the complicated ones_

Lastly it's difficult learning/leveling a new mech from 0 as an advanced player.

Thankyou so much for a wonderful game!

I recall one ex where I can say, without doubt, anyone who spent time with her in bed would find a flaw in your equation.
