December 2017 Arms Race Release – General Feedback

Take all of this with a healthy dose of “Not written in stone” and understand that we have no timeline for it yet.

Top 10 will show the players at the top, and will no longer allow them to hide their score. If you are at the top, you are a target and it helps other players recognize possible cheaters or identify super strategies. If you spot someone getting triple what anyone else is doing and we verify they are not cheating, then they must be doing something very different.

We will make sure you can only see your corp/alliance/contacts (although contacts must be mutual contacts) exact score and ranking. If we have a public ranking, then we will allow you to opt out, however I’m inclined to have no public ranking other than the top 10.

In actuality, the Leaderboard is only a small part of what we want to add and to me it’s kind of the least interesting part. I would like to add some sort of daily average or completion rate. For example, the challenge is to kill pirates so it will say “On average people have killed 20 pirates” or “15% of players who started this challenge have completed it”.

Once we’ve started down that path, I would like to see other stuff like “The most used ship for this site is…” or something that shows some information, but doesn’t give away the exact fit. These are just a few ideas for things that I would like to see, because I’m interested to know what others are doing. It can also be used as a learning tool for new players who are unsure of what to do.

Interesting. Yes, the Yoiul Accelerator was extremely rare, but you came pretty close to the exact drop chance. Other stuff was pretty close to the right general ranges.

Not event related. We have most everything requested from Art up to Capsuleer Day. I’ll see what we want to request for the summer months. Swimsuit SKINs?
