I’m personally the type of person who likes to compete, not only against my enemies, but along side my friends as well. This competitiveness of my’n is what makes me a pvp’er and i believe any true pvp’er would share this same view as me.
In Spvp however (or any pvp game for that matter), the only real way to compete with friends is to be able to view the end match results; and quite frankly GW2 Scoreboard does a very bad job of this imo.
Have you ever felt like you’ve accomplished so much in a tpvp match, but had nothing to show for because the scoreboard isn’t even worth SS’ing (screen shot). It would be nice if the scoreboard showed a little more then what it shows, but more importantly if it showed it differently. I understand you can view your kills, decaps, caps, rez, etc… all at the bottom, but you cannot compare it with other fellow teammates, and no one can really see your top achievements.
A little idea i had to help the spvp community out is to remake the scoreboard, make it more “fun,” enjoyable to view, and worth taking screen shots of so that you can gloat to your friends, or even use the screen shots to “apply” to a guild you’re interested in.
The new Scoreboard should be able to show:
- Kills
- Deaths
- Caps
- Decaps
- Defends (successful defending of a point)
- Revives
- A small Trophy icon beside the players name for the Top Awards they achieved in that match (every top award should have its own icon, but if you hover mouse over the icon it should tell you specifically what that award was for)
- And obviously points gained.
By clicking the top category, it should also organize the players from highest to lowest according to that category, Example: if i were to click “Kills” it would organize the Scoreboard to display the players with the top kills on top and lowest at the bottom.
Some scoreboards i’ve seen even go so far as to showing you the ping of other players so that you know exactly who to blame for your failures.
I really do hope this catches the eyes of some devs or even the GW2 community, i have for a long time now been a pvp only gamer, so scoreboards mean everything to me. I’d like to know what you guys think/ how you feel about this. All ideas are welcomed so don’t forget to leave a comment on your opinion and thanks for the read.
-Edited to add Revives on the list and fixed some spelling errors for you grammer kitten’s (english isn’t my first language and i know its still not perfect, but cut me some slack).
