@iphophet It is not theory. It is fact. If you saw my thread, you will see that at 45 land spy with almost no allies can rank higher than a hlbc hitter with 2 trillion in allies and higher hit count just because spy actions are higher. Look at my thread. All the numbers are there.
Can you get a link to the thread? I'd like to look at it. I own several accounts and test kaw junk all the time. Of all my accounts my biggest is ranked lowest overall. By far largest BFA but barely any wins and almost no spy actions. So in that case, it make sense. But on the same hand, I test with a hitter account and a spy account; hitter had around 50% more wins than the spy; the spy about 50% more spy action than the hitter; the hitter is ranked more than 1500 spots higher on overall lb and it's BFA at testing was a 0/0/0/0 ally. In this case it doesn't really add up. About all test I've run come out this way, yes spy actions count towards overall lb but not as much as attacks. Like I said, I've just been going in circles, because results don't add up to what is "common knowledge" to the kawmunnity of how overall is calculated.
This is stupid, your just complaining because you're a noob and have no battles yourself, 99% of support for this is all noobs!
Ultimate Killer, are you telling me that all 100,000 of your wins come from "real" brawls? Is it worth showing off how many times you've hit an osf or hit a repeat button? no. I'm pretty sure it doesn't represent skill in any possible way, which leaderboards should reflect. BTW, it's "arrow IN the knee". IN. not "arrow to the knee". Play the game maybe and you would know.
Haha I'm so sick of that arrow in the knee joke. There are always going to be people who want to keep there Spies in the dark but actions have to be separated.
Support There should be two prestigious leader boards, the current one minus top ally value ( which is pointless), And most definitely an assassin version that shows most assassinations, steals and spy wins. Who doesn't want the notoriety? Of being known as the best marauding warrior or the coldest killer. The dev's could also add a few percentage bonuses to the top slots say like the top 20 of each section. I do think this would add another way for dev's to get a new revenue and to shake up the kaw world again... Which it's seriously in need of. Well done philosopher good thread. SIN
In all honesty I don't see a problem with people knowing who are the best at what they do... Look at how many real lb take downs have happened in the last six months... Do you think the same will happen to the best spy lb? Well potentially yes and is that a bad thing? Hell no! I think it would be awesome to see those and to give those the accolade they deserve on both fields...and if it's the mixed build farmers cacking themselves I wouldn't worry to much, the EB all stars will most likely be beating you on hits steals assassinations and spies, so why not open up a new can of worms for these guys? SIN As the oldest farmer here I'd say stop bricking it and go for the kills go for the notoriety!
I'm just here to add that I'd like to see a 'rivals' tab, similar to the one in GaW, but lifetime instead of weekly for all LBs- not just battles/steals(if a spy action LB is to be created). I think it could make things interesting if those who want to fight for a LB ranking know exactly who their competition is, instead of spamming the repeat button and hoping to jump a few spots. I do think that the 'overall' LB should incorporate actions, both spy and battle( since it IS overall). Just change the wording if so many are upset about it. I won't jump on board and yell 'SUPPORT!' with everyone else, but I feel that some changes are needed and this is as good a starting point as any.
Where you at devs. Some explanations or even just some acknowledgment of this would be awesome and show you care what your paying players think.
