Official/unofficial sigs support

[Apos]

Hi,

as we all know there will be ranked system in new RO. We still dont know what it will be: ranks, medals, ribbons, etc. But what could be good to find new customers and promote HoS are signatures.

Small images with your RO:HoS profile, wich include information about your statistics.

Here's an example of my friends sig from BC2



That kind of sig putted on forums profile looks cool and is free* advertise for game.

*) the problem is server. If TWI is not going to provide it, they can make it possible for community to create own sig/stats system.

Just my thoughts

[Fedorov]

there should be a way to do it with Steam

[Zetsumei]

as all that information is stored on the steam page of a user. It should be possible to subtract that information. Whether or not TWI themselves should indulge into this is another matter though, it would be cool but not important for me.

[Gaston!]

I hope RO:HOS doesn't become a stats stress game.

[Zetsumei]

I wouldn't mind if it would be, I would just isolate myself to a few nice servers. While the stat whores would keep the game and community alive for a long time.

Apos, can u plz tell me where your friend got that sig?

sure pal, check that web http://bfbc2.elxx.net/

but be aware of very long loading times or 404s. EAs auth servers are overloaded.

kick valve in the butt to create a decent API, it certainly would stress their servers less than the hacky wacky query systems there are currently. With such an API sigs and quite a lot more nice stuff would be possible :S

That would be cool, but it should have an RO twist to it. RO needs to remain a TEAM based game, not a game for stat whores.

A custom sig for RO, at least for me, should read "Victories" and "Defeats" rather than "Kills" and "Deaths". This would emphasize the team-based nature of winning and loosing in Red Orchestra. For an added personal statistic, you could add "Average Points per Hour Played" or something like that. This would be a gauge of how much you are contributing individually to the TEAM effort.

The whole 'dogtags' and 'kill / death ratio' thing on those BFBC2 custom sigs is a big turn-off for me, and is really telling about the nature of that game. It really solidifies me NOT wanting to buy it.

I totally agree with you! It is just an example. I already said in other topic that kill per death radio shouldnt be important in RO:HOS, but teamplayer points or as you said win to lose score.

[DirtyRat]

I'm glad I did a search first...I had the same thought tonight, I'd love an RO stat sig even if it just listed the number of times I'd died on duty
The custom BFBC2 sigs are very nice.

[Frostedfire]

I had a spare half hour so I slapped a couple mock-ups together









graphics and placement could have been better, but as I said I only had half an hour

I vote for :

PLAYER NAME

VICTORIES
DEFEATS
(KILLS ?)
TIME PLAYED
STATUS (Recruit/Veteran/Hero or w/e more will be)
LEADERBOARD

With a choice of different images to pick out.

[Brozex]

It would be cool to see most used weapons,tanks, and what weapon you use the best.
