Note:
Changes will not take effect if loading from the old save - Game restart will be needed.
Earlier game versions (1.0, 1.1 and 1.2) are not affecting the rating obtained on duel; only 1.3 game version is capable to generate rating.
The old scores from patch 1.2 are no longer relevant on patch 1.3 as the parameters on which the scores are calculated have been reconsidered and there are needed complete replays of campaigns for updated scores.
Ranking numbers are temporary excluded from the lobby player list and will be available later. For now, they can be accessed through the players profile.
