First of all I want to mention that I love this game and I don't want to hate on this game, I simply want to give my constructive criticism because I think that this game has some minor problems when we are talking about the ranked system. I really like that this game even has a ranked mode but I think they should change the system a little bit.
The problem is that the ranked system rewards you for camping because you get RP for simply surviving for example. I mean I get that the developers also want to reward players with a “tactical“ approach and it should not be all about kills … but it is kind of silly that you get a positive score in the gold tier by simply getting to the top 6 without any kills.
Another problem is that once you get your 5 kills, or 2 kills and 3 assissts or whatever, you no longer have a reason to engage in a gunfight if it is not necessary because all you need to do is camp and get a better place so you get more RP because you wont get any for making more kills. I often found myself camping with my team mates because we already had our kills and it just wasn't worth the risk to die as place 7 when we could still camp out to the top 6.
My point is camping is boring and I don't think you should reward it. If you make it to the top 6 without any kills that is not really an achievement in my opinion and it should not give you any RP. Maybe only give points to those who get to the Top 5 or Top 3? Because if you want to get there camping wont be enough most of the time.
Also I think that you should get RP for every kill. If you make 20 kills in one round, why shouldn't you be rewarded with more RP? Am I the only one who thinks this way? I like to play aggressive and have fun but this game clearly doesn't want me to do that.
