Is there a possibility to do that.
example Knjaz have 1000 wins and i have 50 wins in-game lobby.

Posted by: (USA)Bruce 21 Feb 2017, 7:35

If you watch Knjaz'es own streams, he'll have less then 5 or at tops 9 wins,
THE CURSE OF THE YOUTUBE STREAMER

As for real stats? As long as we dont emulate the online area like CNC online then no, at most we can use gentool for tracking but I doubt it'll work out...

It can be abused. And games become even lesser fun because everyone would want to tryhard for " muh stats bruh" .

I love stats tho. Stats are fun

While having stats have benefits, it causes some problems as well. But the benefits really don't worth it.

Like Mizo said, with stat system low tier players would get kicked out of games with high tier players every time, currently this is what happens in C&COnline in Kane's Wrath lobby. So unless you have a few friends that know u and are willing to play with u, it's unlikely you're gonna get a game. While this doesn't happen in SWR.NET-like servers like GenArena or Tunngle.

The Benefits however, one of em is that u can't change your name without resetting ur stats or creating a new account.

That's what i can think of stat system

Nothing is stopping you from keeping your own score though, if that's what you're into.

And to be frank this game is already filled to the brim with competitive minded people. Tournament titles would be a better way to encourage a healthier sense of competition, I remember folks got real salty about their scores on CnC online back in the day.

Will probably reduce activity for others, no one wants their loses seen. Or play players they know will loose to

Posted by: The_Hunter 22 Feb 2017, 20:30

It's not even possible to add a system like that within the game its self to begin with.

Posted by: {Lads}RikerZZZ 22 Feb 2017, 23:11

Would it be possible if swr.net was more of a C&C online clone rather than an open network lobby, or is that one of those sage things?

Bump this question because its worth asking.
Plus hearing Eva say "wellcom to generals online" is something I miss.

Exactly this ^. I really dont want stats system because most of people will start to abuse it to increase their win/lose stat and number of playing will greatly reduce. Even now is very hard for me to find a game. I have to wait when there will be 2-3 A.M. of my timezone to find at least few games to play and there is not really fun and productive in game terms to play when you are sleepy or rusty at that time but there is no choise for such players like me . So no stats people! Play for fun only

WC3 for example have PvPGN servers (non-official emulators) with their in-game GHost-bot programms which make a stats for ladder and DOTA games.

Posted by: The_Hunter 26 Feb 2017, 13:02

If SWR.net would work like C&C Online then it could work yes.

However i'm not so sure if they people whom have spend so much time on setting up C&C Online would simply share their source files to use on our own server.
They would much more likely prefer you'd use their service for the mod instead (which you can do already)

Posted by: XoGamer 26 Feb 2017, 18:49

Wait so are you saying we can already play ROTR on CNC Online?

...

I did not know this , although do people actually go on it or does everyone just use SWR.Net instead?

Posted by: {Lads}RikerZZZ 26 Feb 2017, 22:55

Most people use either private hamachi groups or the most popular one is SWR.net

Posted by: XAOC-RU- 28 Feb 2017, 11:35

Yes you can play there but this is pointless because all games in lobby will be ZH or other mods but not ROTR. We have very small community. IDK really who is really play ROTR online at least one day in a week. 15-20 people maybe. And they all spread in different timezones so chance to make a game is very low even on swr.net

Posted by: Zion 1 Mar 2017, 0:56

rotr is dead, i dont even see much people playing on weekends

Posted by: Maelstrom 1 Mar 2017, 0:57

Then what are you doing here ?

Posted by: Zion 1 Mar 2017, 3:44

im still around, one of the few active players in my timezone. not sure what u mean

unless ur trying to insult me with that, *slow clap*

Posted by: Maelstrom 1 Mar 2017, 9:55

My apologies if I sounded a bit aggressive.
Your sentence looked a tad insulting, that's why I reacted that way.

Posted by: BlastingBout 1 Mar 2017, 10:53

Stats would not be the best idea but ranks and ribbons are actually the reason why people keep playing games like COD or BF etc.
It's really rewarding, I even try to get all the singleplayer medals in Generals. I think it's a lot of fun

I'm from the Netherlands btw anyone in my timezone?

Posted by: {Lads}RikerZZZ 1 Mar 2017, 13:29

Most people are in your timezone mate

Posted by: XAOC-RU- 1 Mar 2017, 14:26

It calls achievement system and it really good idea especcially for singleplayer missons. For example if you will accomplish misson without any loses you will be awared by some medal. Or if you end misson using one hero e.t.c.
