Men of War: Developers update 09

[Instinct]

Hello everyone! Today we will tell you about the players’ statistics and scores in the new online multiplayer.

For the case you can't remember anymore, we will remind you on a few things:
Currently we are testing our statistics system which will reflect the player’s activity and success in multiplayer games. The statistics system consists of 2 parts – player stats and global stats. Both types of stats will be accessible from the game directly.


Player stats
This info will be connected to your gamer profile at GameSpy and all info about player will be gathered there. This information will be open for anyone, so you will be able to look at other players stats at the main lobby or in game session to make yourself a first impression about the playing style and skills of others.

For now we are gathering those types of statistics:

• Rank – the more games played the higher it will be[/*:167cb]
• Score – the main numeric value that measures player skill[/*:167cb]
• Disconnects – the amount of games, which were not finished; reason does not matter[/*:167cb]
• Stats for each game type[/*:167cb]
  a. Amount of games played
  b. Amount of wins
  c. Win ratio
  d. Score in this game type
• Stats for each side of conflict in game[/*:167cb]
  a. Amount of games played
  b. Amount of wins
  c. Win ratio

Global stats
Global stats have several different and independent top-10 lists. For instance, gamers with highest score in different categories. Therefore we made a top-10 list for each game mode, absolute list for all game modes and special list for modded games( all match results from modded games will be shown there)

Score
Score is calculated by a modified ELO system that is used in chess tournaments, and other games. The main point of this system is – if you want to quickly raise your score, you need to defeat opponents with higher or equal score, while defeating low score opponents will give the winner almost nothing. The outcome from team battles is calculated from average team score and score of separate players.

Those players, who want to train without any influence to their score, we added a special mode called unranked matches. You just need to mark the game as not ranked while creating a host.





So enjoy another bunch of screenshots!

Reminds me of C&C: Generals ZH. Man i hate that game.......

Ahh, very nice! Its better that Relic's rank system for CoH. Will there be a Player leaderboard of some kind? And if there is, would the Leading player at the end of each month get a award of somekind? :P And also, something I hate in CoH, will cheating like "drophacking" be "blocked" :brickwall: from MP? Really hope it is....
Anyway, lovely screens there. In the fourth screen, is that a Jagdtiger or a German Captured KV-2 Tank? Really looks similar... Anyway great Devupdate as always! Keep it up!

The top 10-lists. We made no clear thoughts about "awards", yet.

What you mean with "drophacking"? It will be shown how often a player disconnected to a running game, the host can kick him if his stats don't look good.
It's a Jagdtiger.

Looks very good. Was the original game released before it was ready as there is japanese weapons and sounds for dogs and cows?
I simply adore the ranking system. Reminds me of Wolfenstein though its matches won not kills. Will there be a screen displaying number of units won and lost? Keep up the great work!! how many people are working on this?

Theres no need of this, cause its a foolish nonsense thing. Awards what for plz?

[Jozor]

Seeing about this new system, what about mods? Will it be permently off for them? or will they possibly be able to have there own ranking systems ?

What you mean with "drophacking"?

He means a hack that allows you to disconnect other players from the games, so that they get a discornected loss and you get you. I've had it done to me more than enough times to be annoyed at it .

People I know it's hot, but please read:

and special list for modded games( all match results from modded games will be shown there)
