Multiplayer # of players searching display
Posts: 168
I really dont get removing the ability to see how many people are searching. Its a waste of time for me if just 2 or 3 people are searching for a 4 v 4 game. At least if I could see that I would do something else instead of waiting for eternity for a game.
I think its better if you brought back the display of rank and number of players searching for a game.

removing ranks and number of players searching. If you intended to prevent people from dropping they still do because guess what .... the number of stars on their faceplates still give an idea of their rank. So if they see a number of 1 stars on their team and 5 stars on the other they drop as before.

Im fine with not knowing the level (eventhough it´s silly since you count the stars) as we know that Level =/= Skill.
PD: just experience

They've been dibbling with the intel bulletins and adding in Case Blue etc.
I think somebody miscoded somewhere

I'm conflicted on whether removing the number of players searching was a good idea or not. On one hand it gave people who didn't understand the metric the impression that the population was exceedingly low. On the other hand it is nice to know how many people are actively searching for a game. I think if they make the metric easier for the simpler among us to understand it should be displayed.

I suppose we could try to remove faceplates on the loading screen as well, a lot of people were dropping simply on seeing higher ranks.

Instead of showing a number which confuses people who don't understand the system, perhaps we could use a low/medium/high value for players searching. Would that be a better alternative?

i dont wanna sound like an idiot, but whats the point of faceplates or ranks if noone can see it?

Why not just display ladder rank?
If people drop from seeing a rank that doesn't even relate to skill, I would think dropping would become a bigger problem if you actually showed their "skill".

I know 3 of my close friends stopped playing simply because of seeing a drastically higher rank than them when starting. Bridger was one of them. Its needless frustration and I am glad its out.
