In Games like call of duty world at war or modern warfare or R6 vegas 2 its great to get ranks and unlock weapons.
So what do you think only insert ranks into the game?
Its just for the commander and other players and of course for the ambition


Example (!!!!1111oneone):

Marines:
<img src="http://www.army.mil/symbols/Images/NewRanks_01.jpg" border="0" class="linked-image" />
The marine has this ranks on his arm.
The command see which rank has which player, so he knows better which player has more experience and so he can give this player more difficult orders.

Aliens Rank:
Larva (100 prestige/honor points)
Drone (200 prestige/honor points)
Devourer (300 prestige/honor points and so on)
Guardian
Hydralisk
Overlord
Same here, other teammembers and players see the rank behind or under the name or just at the scoreboard.

How you get the ranks?
I don´t know maybe like

Kill a enemy: 1 prestige/honor points
Kill a enemy building: 2 prestige/honor points
Win a match: 20 prestige/honor points

    Never, too casual and gives birth to lol-stats-hunters and unlocking weapons wouldnt make sense.

    But since its going to be moddable some people will work on it and Ill do my best to avoid those servers/mods

    No, because time playing doesn't = how good someone is.

    If it is a serious (pro, pug, match, etc.) game the commander will already know his players and competency levels. A pub server environment is different but I think half the fun of pubbing is the process of getting to know the players. A scoreboard with K/D ratio is all it takes to see who the uber good (hacking) players are.

    I vote for no K/D display at all but that's probably for another thread.

    Although I don't want a rank system, I think it would be nice to have something that could track all of the kills, death, structures I've built, how much time I've have spent as each class, ect.

    Pretty much what battlefield 2 did (just without the rank, medals & weapon unlocks).

    Maybe, I haven't played TF2 in over 2 years.
