When a game ends, rank points are awarded to all players using the following rules:
- The leaderboard is ordered by stars, then by ships, then by carriers, then by defeated date (undefeated ordered above defeated).
rank points awarded = (number of players / 2)- zero based leaderboard position- For first place its
rank points awarded = number of players - AFK players are not awarded positive rank points, they will receieve negative rank points (at least -1).
- Players who have filled AFK slots are awarded x1.5 rank points rounded up (at least 0).
So for example, in a 4 player game:
- 1st place receives 4 rank points.
- 2nd place receives 1 rank points.
- 3rd place receives 0 rank points.
- 4th receives -1 rank points.
Additionally:
- 1st place receives a galactic credit.
- Players who are undefeated and active (not AFK) receive +1 to their completed statistic on their profile.
- Players cannot have less than 0 rank points in their profiles.
- Rank points are not awarded in New Player Games.
- Rank points are not awarded unless the game has completed 3 galactic cycles.
When a player achieves a certain number of rank points, they are awarded with a new rank insignia, this is displayed on the player's profile in game, on the leaderboard and in the player's achievments page. The rank levels are listed below.
