BF2S Forums Small Rankings Change

Shock paddle K/D ratio rankings?

Did anyoe else notice that the guy with the highest knife kdr (127) doesn't even have 100 global points?

How about Flag caps per match/round?

how about cartillery kills.......LOL

If one were to use sniper once, hit their first shot, and never use it again...they'd be at the top :V

No. I require that you use the sniper rifle for one hour before you can get included in the list. Same for the Knife KDR list (but with the knife) so that this kind of thing is avoided. I could have just as easily have done it with another stat like "sniper kills" or something.

I also noticed a mods/admins online. That is also a smart update. It's now easier to see is a Mod/admin is online, in the event they need to be PM'ed.

This is new, and also when browsing profiles, there is now a "Send PM" button in the side menu bar thing-a-ma-jig.

The ranking definitely needs minimum requirements.  Basic sniper badge or minimum kills with Sniper Rifles or minimum # shots taken with a Sniper Rifles.

If one hour with isn't sufficient, which would be? Number of shots seems like a good idea.

I would also like to see a ranking for only people with Sniper Rifles as there favorite weapon accuracy and kill death ratios.  You could do that with kits too, but you would get all the vehicle sluts at the top.

That's probably not possible since favorites are calculated on-the-fly when your stats page is loaded.

In other words, let the client side do more of the heavy lifting.

You're kidding right? You want me to transfer 1 million database records to your browser and then let Javascript have a go at doing ... anything! with that? Yeah. Sure.

chuy..... is it possible to extract "kills by arty", pro & con?

No! Arg. I get real tired of hearing this one. Arty kills are not tracked, and there is NO WAY to extract that number from the total.

How about Gold Stars per round? (with an arbitrary minimum number of rounds played)

Or, how about tracking the worst (or best) teamkill/kill ratios.

weight of ammo spent.
calc standard weight of a round/per type, times number fired.

Heh, how about a "most expended ammo" ranking.

whats statspadders? any1?

Looks like I'm a little late to the post.

Anything to do with commanding would be great. There's NO LOVE for commanders now days!

Rankings for either would be excellent ;D!

With the sniper rifles when you just starting you tend to sit and wait for people to come by not always trying to kill someone where as with the knife you generaly trying to kill someone when you have it out.

I would say a number of shots would be good(100 minimum), but I think that I would go for number of kills because it is easy to take shots at lite vehicals and helicopters and have a high accuracy and number of kills would show some proficency with the weapon.   I would say at least 25 kills, but maybe 50 or 100 would be better.  I am averaging 15.6 kills per hour and going up with the sniper rifles so it should be easy to get 25 kills in a couple of hours as long as you don't sit too far from the action.   

You get 30 rounds with the bolt action rifles and 60 with the semi-automaits.

I have 40 kills with the knife and only .5 hours with it.

Transfer a millions records?   Hmm, I didn't realize it would have to be that many...

Does it sound more feasbile to be able to store(server side) pre-gathered datasets based upon stat criteria from a personal leaderboard designer to run on a scheduled basis?  To store this efficiently would mean cutting down the data fields to just a list of PID's in a pre-sorted order.  The PID's might not even be used, but rather your internal record id number which could help shrink storage a bit.  Anyway, when the list is requested a query to the main database for the rest of the columns to display, a page at a time, would have to be dynamically requested.  The designer would have to certainly be limited to 1 or 2 special leaderboard rankings.  Yes, I know, we're potentially talking over 100 billion records in over 300,000 - 600,000 lists.  Crazy numbers I'm sure.


Ah well, I guess you have better things to do than discuss a hair-brain idea about stat personlization with me.  All the best to you, I'll go away now.

I think you should add a stat for the person who's had the biggest problem with their connection.  Just so I know its not only me getting dropped about every three minutes.  Then we could have an adjoining stat to show who's most annoyed by this "problem".
