Because a lower rank defeats you while they most likely wil not win so they get points say private vs sergeant or up, while when your a high rank and you win most of the time, and you defeat someone say private and your sergeant or higher, you only get the less amount of points because they lose most of the time so it was probably obvious you would defeat them.

PvP was designed to make sure you have fun and be challenged. if your bad 1v1, try 4v4 bigger the team,the more likely you'll have a life student or a really strong guy.

Yeah that's why as a private against a sergeant I lost 13 and as a corporal against a pvt I won 6. As a corperal against a private I loss 18 and as a pvt against a cpl I won 14. I'm am very confused about the point system at all it seems very broken.

I enjoy the challenge of fighting against other players but I fail to see any progression. I tried playing on one of my lower levels and have played 8 matches with 5 wins and 3 losses. My rank is private at 510 points. So with two wins over losses I am 10 points up. But I've lost at least 13 points when I lost and won as little as 6 so if I win 6 and lose 13 how do you progress?
