Lords of the West & Update 44725 Development Update

When will the devs fix team game elo? It is bugged from the release, but until now it didnt make it to the list of known bugs.

The TG rating is very much inflated. This means:

  1. TG Elo is pretty much correlated with the number of games you played and not really with your skill.
  2. As results team games are almost never balanced, so these games are pretty much one sided from the start.

Easiest fix for the issue is the slightly change the calculation of TG elo. Currently it compares your TG elo towards the maximum TG elo of a player of the enemy. I would suggest to change this to comparing your TG elo towards the average TG elo of the players of the enemy.

Only thing the devs really need to do is changing the maximum into an average. On paper this sounds really easy to do. Not sure if it the is also really easy for the devs as well.

Much more about this issue:

This thread also shows some other possible solutions, but they seem to be more advanced.

Can this issue be added to the list of know bugs?
