Game Tab Menu and ESC Menu (Tweaks w/Pic's) (Dream!)

(spookify) #1

I honestly think this is my best and most useful post on the forums! With DB down I found some Screen shots and started tweaking!

Check it out! This is what I would love to see the game menu look like!!!

Notice how EPIC names look with COLOR!!!
In Game Stats! Yes Please!
Current Perk Load Out with Info! Ah Yes!
And Even room for another Square!!!

Next is the ESC Menu. This is very confusing an people are always asking “How do I go Spec?”. So the ESC menu looks really rough and should be combined with the Deploy menu!! Check it out:

Would love to see the detailed stats for the current map, including damage given, accuracy, number of headshots, and headshot accuracy.

Totally Agree! Damage Give especially would be huge for ranked games!!!

Nice thread.

would like to see other peoples ideas for stats display
I like
damage given/taken

headshots
individual weapon stats
time used/damage done

I think stats in game need to be talked about 2 different ways.

#1) In game like ET has and gives a small snap shot of the current players stats. This would be huge if specs had axcess to this also.

#2) Detailed end game stats like LOL has. Allows all players and specs to see very detailed stats of the maps or rounds or end of matchs or ranked play.

as i have no interest in competition, long term stats are useless to me
I do like the idea of per map or per session stats of the type I mentioned
You’ll notice I never mentioned kills or deaths, I played engi in W:ET dying is what engis did most, but we won the map, not the medics
idfc if specs have access to stats, but me personally, I see no need. Access to server recordings would be my next best want

I still like the idea of seeing an Echo style round heatmap in addition to stats during endgame.

I would like a match history where I can check past games. Even something that could mesh the past 10-50 of that map’s games’ heat maps into a single map. And not only where people died, but from where people were shot from. You can learn the most dominate positions on the map if from heat maps over the course of many matches.

The more stats, the better. For example, check my average accuracy on this map with this gun. Check my average accuracy over the last 10 times I played this map. Really give us a crazy amount of stats and ways to look at them.

These kinds of stats post game (I might also add that these poped up in the ingame browser that’s in the source engine), was always sufficient for me. Personally, if I start bothering about my accuracy, whatever/death ratio mid game it just takes my mind away from the game. Again, personally, just show me all of that stuff after the game is done and I’m happy.

Having said that, I rarely bothered looking at these things anyway.

Mustang and your comment would be amazing!! End game and history “detailed” stats is going to be a must!

However when I created this thread I was thinking in game TAB stats that can be placed in that menu. In sugguesting that we have gone onto end game detailed stats AS WELL AS spec or shoutcast axcess! :slight_smile:

Hope SD has a plan for all three of these areas! :smiley:

Name colouring - my eyes, they burrrrrrrrrrrrrn.

(ToonBE) #13

I agree… Name colouring is not necessary. It is however necessary to allow every character possible including all the different alt-codes. But no colors

(spookify) #14

What you talking about color looks amazing! :smiley:

What about the rest of it? Tab and ESC. I think both can use some work.

(Silvanoshi) #15

Yup, they both could certainly do with some work. You’ve got some good suggestions in there, although you may be trying to fit a lot of info into too small an area. Nonetheless, the situation will certainly improve with time. As you’ve seen over the last few updates, we’re iterating quite a bit upon the menu system at the moment.

Sure, but only if there is no functionality that requires you to type someone’s nickname. In Tribes hackers run around with nicknames that are really difficult to type so you can’t call a kickvote.

(Nail) #17

no cuneiform allowed

but I see how having stats available to specs/casters would be handy

(tokamak) #18

Or Evolve’s fast-forward repeating minimap replay at the end of each map.

(chippy) #19

Loved that!

(Mustang) #20

Not a fan of the implementation, but the idea is fine.
