Originally posted by adjacentengels View PostWould that be able to differentiate between a mobile user and an emulator? That seems to be the main issue.
But yeah, the improved gameplay will result in better gear and quicker levelling, splitting the boards will only be for bragging/comparison - but you'll also have a much wider range of devices when it comes to mobiles/tablets so performance would also vary. Summing it all up, doesn't seem to be worth the effort to even investigate...
(Sorry for going slightly off topic from the original)

Originally posted by adjacentengels View PostWorse than that ... if you have access to PC you can use the improved game play to gain higher trials for better gear and higher CL, then switch to play on mobile with a beefed up hero compared to mobile-only players to get a top spot. That's why if you play PC at all you would need to be limited to PC leaderboard. This is all assuming that leaderboards get split, which I don't think they will.

Seems unnecessary to me.

Ah, gotcha - although I personally see no issue with having the same character on the separate boards at different Trial level.
Played on Android, got to Trial 100; switched to PC got to Trial 105
- char on both boards, Android = 100, PC = 105
- the Android position will stay as is until a higher Trial is done on Android...
The one thing the code cannot differentiate is when the Android/iOS version is played on PC via emulators - so the difficulty will still apply (I recall this was mentioned previously as well - people have asked for separate boards before the event)

Originally posted by adjacentengels View PostIf they were able to implement something then I would think if you ever play your event hero on a PC then you get positioned on the PC leaderboard. So even if you go back and forth between PC and mobile you would be flagged for the PC leaderboard.
Guess that is up for debate.

This is not necessarily "impossible" - software are usually compiled differently for different platform/operating system (cross-compiling, we use CMake at my work, same source code, compiled with different compilers), therefore a flag could be added to message to the server to provide platform information. We only need this information when the Trial's data is sent, to put the data in the appropriate group - all other messages can be left as is.
