Thread: Global highscores

  1. #1

    Default Global highscores

    I noticed that in Thomas's latest blog post, he mentioned working on global highscores. Does anyone know what this is likely to look like? I would love to see e.g. my scores vs my Steam friends' scores in the normal roguelike mode

    Well to start with there are a number of people who know how to inflate the score, ie what gives more points.
    And just regular games (aka gate closer finishes) will most likely get shoveled far down in such a list.

    Wizard and lvl 50 is a good start if you want a high number, character lvls and spells affect score.
    Ultra gives more than regular finish and probably also side quests.

    Edit: a high score list that we could sort/filtered on race/class would be slightly better, maybe win type and number of turns also.

    Not if they are really fast.

    Overall top scores on server used to be speedrunners and archmages. I think speedrunners were more popular.
    So far rolled 15 casters with RoDS and shamelessly killed them within 200 turns. For eternium glory!
    (after 15 I stopped counting...)

    I'm not that interested in the scores themselves. But I'd like to see if e.g. a friend had a level 40 wizard that was killed by their own magic missile, that sort of thing.

    I was looking at the old Hall of Fame website but got an error when trying to pull the records. Did we lose that?

    It's on our roadmap but we won't have that for version 1. But we already have taken it into account technically. So yes, there will be extensive filtering, sorting and also reporting on various aspects down the road.

    That sounds promising, thanks for the update
