Title: GE:S Stats
Post by: Matteobin on February 05, 2011, 08:11:02 pm

This game is very beatifull and well done, but I suggest you to let the players see their stats directly from the game. Is possible to make a section, like the achievements one, with these datas (http://www.ges-stats.com/hlstats.php?game=ges (http://www.ges-stats.com/hlstats.php?game=ges))?

The GE:S stats page ges-stats.com is run by WNx and not the GE:S developers. When you're in-game you can see your stats directly by typing "rank" into the chatbox or for more options type "hlx". Both those commands only work on the WNx servers (WNx Chicago and WNx UK).

Okey I got it, but why don't you make a space for this? It would be easier, wouldn't it?

Do you mean like in the GE:S menu where it says "Achievements", as in as part of the actual game?

Yes, precisely.

There has been some talk of people wanting a "Global" stats system that would be similar to the one WNx has in that it would keep track of everyone's skills. However, this would be difficult and some people don't like constantly having to worry about their performance since they feel that detracts from the fun. For now you'll just have to deal with typing it into the chat on the WNx servers or other servers that have their own stats system. In addition, it's incredibly unlikely for the GE:S team to implement a link to the WNx stats page since we're only two servers out of many and that would be putting a lot of trust in a group of people outside the dev team.

Thank you. Anyway a global stats system for this game wouldn't be a bad idea. Not like the CoD series (weapons, health and similar must be the same for all the players) but like the WNx servers stats, in my opinion, would be cute.

We have been planning a system for a long time, we just have the issue of KM having the time to code the entire system.  4.1 goals didn't allow for a massive system to be tossed in too.

We have grand plans with our system we will put in place. As always with this project it's just a matter of time and the patience required by you guys to do the waiting.  :P

WNx were able to put in place their system not because they are better than us, or more dedicated to the idea, but because at the time "Badplayer" had free time to use the hlxstats system to make a GE:S targetted spin-off site. Forever kudos on that, however ours will be integrated with an interface, and also we can put in place commands to track even more than currently and likely more accurate.

Hey, I didn't want to offend you. This game is gorgeous with or without a stats system. It was only an opinion.

Keep developing and good luck.
