FAF Ladder Rank

Postby Resin_Smoker » 11 Mar 2014, 07:54

Would it be possible to have a players rank display on the FAF lobby other then when a player is joining a match?

Maybe an ever present icon in the corner of the GUI would work.

Do you mean replacing Global with 1v1 in Aeolus? There was a mild suggestion for it, but it didnt go anywhere...

No sir, I'm referring to the score seen in the multiplayer lobby. Being able to see this score outside of it as a constant part of the FAF user interface.

Not sure to understand, what is that rank?

Rating is displayed in the player list.

What I'm referring to is the score / rank shown while waiting for a match to launch via Forged Alliance (FA). It's next a players name and is generally used as an indication of a players overall experience.

Having this shown in FAF's lobby GUI not just FA's would be very useful as would being able to see:
-The results of the last few matches.
-My win loss / ratio.
-Average ping to the FAF server. IMO this should be the ping that matters when selecting players for a match as this would give a common reference for comparison vice a ping based off a host 1/2 the world away. This ends up being the single most contested issue when joining a match because there is no common reference other than host. Taking the host out of the equation at least lets folks know how their ISP matches up to some common point of reference and thus is much more useful.

Granted I know there is a tab on FAF that shows some stats but from what I've seen its very limited, clumsy, and not always accurate; due to the delay between when a player exits a match and when the match ends.

As I've said, it's already displayed in the nick list.
