I have over 2000 hours in this game and this season has been so bad. Using a ranking level just makes players feel worse when they don't have the time to grind. Now that the ranking is tied into commendations which is linked to non solo play, it's become such a drag. Plus, a lot of the time, even if you bust your -blam!- in a match, half of the time people don't even leave the commendations. Just a stupid idea to tie advancement to this.
