Report the Final Thresholds When Posting ANB Results

[Tin Man]

Let me start by saying it is great that Liana-Daniela (QA Specialist) posts the Top 100 for each class for each A New Beginning event. I just have a simple request to add a few small pieces of information to the information provided when the results are posted.

Please consider adding the results for the various thresholds to the posting. So, for Bronze, add the information for #1000 so that players can see how far away they were from the mark. I am not asking to post all of the Top 1000 results. Continue with the Top 100 but add a few lines like #1000, #500 and #250. Doing this would require adding only three more lines to your table with data that already had to be verified anyways. Silver would only show only #500 and Gold would only show #250.

Right now? When you do not qualify for any medals you are left with no idea whatsoever how far away you were from the lowest medal. You do have a point of reference for Bronze because, when you are below 1000, you can see the information for #1000 on the leader boards. However, during Silver and Gold you can only see #100 and above once you cross over the #1000 threshold.

This does not seem like too much to ask and might add some encouragement to players that have just missed qualifying for a medal.

Plese consider this slight upgrade.

I like the Idea as this is a step in right direction, but I also think it is still not enough.
Much more could and should be done.

Considering the fact, that LB's and Trial pushing are the only competitive, " online" experience that keep people playing and paying (more or less) longer then simply rush through story mode and forget about it.
And in any competitive game and sport having the ability to see, analyse rankings, compare, see hall of fame, go though some historical data is a must and is half of the experience.
Since very beginning I was sort of amazed how airily devs were about this.
In game only LB with very limited views - top 100 or couple people above and below you. Your class ladder or Main LB accessible in completely different places of the game interface.
On top of that, screenshots of the excel tables posted on the forums for events ....

Looks like this part of the game is legacy stuff from the early stages of game development that has been abandoned a "little".
Don't even tell me this is not in a form of any sort of relational database and stuff are read from some text files on the server and then handled by game client

Even if that's what it is this should not be a massive task/cost to get it changed, hire a SQL guy (contractor if not perma) make him a good coffee and let him work.
You can leave it as it is in game, just make it available on the web as addition with ability to scroll through the whole LB, see other classes LBs and some historic tabs for past events. Job done - happy player base.
Adding other stuff there optional some would like to see more about other players like stats sheets etc, some does not like it as want to keep some level of privacy/secrecy about their builds, I have no opinion on that - matter for discussion.

What you think ?

I like the hall of fame thing. There could be a stone in the city and when you click you see the name of all the anb and seasons top 10. Wouldn’t it be cool?
