Why didn't AGS just let the leaderboard end and put it on pause for a few days? Extending the leaderboard after people have been grinding for months is TOTAL BULLSH!T 🤬

LOL you think a huge portion of us play because of some unknown at the top of an imaginary board?

I’m saying top 10 players on every leaderboard combined makes up 50% of the average concurrent player base on my server, which currently averages around 300 players. I’m not saying that people who aren’t on the boards would quit because of the people who are. That wouldn’t make any sense. I’m saying that the people who aren’t on the boards make up the minority of the average activity on the server.

Someone can tell us about Why leaderboard is so important? Only the minor p2w no life hard core players are doing it who has BIS gears…

Exactly, i legitimately cant fathom how anyone gets so bent out of shape over some silly pixels on a screen. There is no way they can navigate real life if this is a crisis for them.

Such a bad take. Ultimately weā€˜re all taking time to write things up here on the forums for a game, which means a majority of us are very invested into that game and it means something. Trying to downplay other peopleā€˜s reactions by saying ā€œitā€˜s just a gameā€ just because you yourself donā€˜t care too much shows a major lack of empathy for the ones that obviously do.

If somebody is into cars and they just had an accident, are you gonna say ā€œitā€˜s just a carā€? Or if somebodyā€˜s dog dies, are you gonna say ā€œitā€˜s just a dogā€? You wouldnā€˜t, so stop projecting your own lack of passion onto others.

You have very skewed priorities. Since when does a pets death or a risk of serious bodily harm even come close to some silly video game? I like games, but i also recognize that it is just a GAME. Some of you think it really affects your life. You need some perspective. Nothing that happens in this game is a big deal or anything to stress over. Maybe when you get some real life experience you and others will realize that. Maybe not.

Agree 100%… worst AGS in the gaming development… how can the delay and delay the end of leadboard its and event with a timer they are not even good to respect the dates… best option was and is to stop the leadboard counting… but im sure they are lazy fck to do something extra on them knowledge

I was 51 on the leaderboards Wednesday night. 5 away from 50. It just didn’t look like i was gong to get inside the top 50 for OPR. So i stopped because the patch was the next day. Then it didn’t come out. If i would have kept the same pace i would have entered the top 50 EASILY. People below me kept on grinding and made it. It sucks, but it’s not the end of the world. Stop treating the game like it’s a job.

Soo… you post on this thread judging people on how they spend their free time. For a total of 9 times up to this point. And 500+ posts in total.

Look man, I think you might have a fair bit of issues to deal with yourself. Maybe just leave these guys alone? :smile:

Hard Blow. Gonna think about that when I’m partying with my Friends, have Dinner with my Girlfriend or spend some of my hard earned money from my well-paid Job on Amazon.com.

I think you need some perspective as you don’t seem to be able to grasp the concept that somebody can have a great life and still enjoy Video Games. And yes, some of us are more dedicated to the game than others, some of us spend more time in the game than others and some of us have been sacrificing other things to be able to push the leaderboards. And it’s just not okay to disrespect their time investment by pushing them back over and over.

In all honesty, It literally doesn’t matter what your opinion on the matter is if you’re not part of that group. It’s objectively not okay and I think everybody should be able to see why from the perspective of people that are affected by this.

No, he’s posting saying getting enraged because something happens you don’t like in something as inconsequential as a video game is ridiculous.

How you spend your time is up to you, but if you get enraged because of a video game then yes, your priorities are very skewed.

If I’m taking days off to engage in X, and X doesn’t happen, then i’m probably gonna be frustrated. Whether that X is some sports event, a video game release, a vacation or whatever. Ya, there’s more important stuff than just recreational joy, no one is debating that. But if you apply that logic to video games, you have to apply it to ALL recreational activities the same - they’re not really important in the long run, right? So, from now on you’re no longer allowed to complain about flight cancellations, delays, friends canceling plans last minute, refs making bad calls on your favorite sports events, etc. Sounds good?

Cause if you can’t guarantee that, you should probably emphasize with these folks at least a tiny little bit.

I just think they found some player abuse and they don’t want it to be known until I have fixed it and identified the players who took advantage of it, if so they should be permanently banned. There is no other option, in fact, I am a little surprised by the insistence of some so that this system returns so urgently.

Yea, I figure at this point he’s either a troll that knows exactly what he’s doing or that friend in the group.

I had a college acquaintance that followed us around like a puppy. Was part of ROTC and apparently had a real hard a** father. Every time we had a traditionally nerdy activity he A) would make absolutely sure to show up, participate, and have a great time B) comment how stupid the activity was / a waste of time / we needed to get a life.

All these comments about ā€œjust pixelsā€ and ā€œyou just don’t know what life isā€ sounds exactly like that toxic behavior / toxic masculinity.

Totally. I play with my boyfriend after working all day with people, lol

Maybe you are in a populated server, but in mine the top 10 in the leaderboard are the people who keep the server alive. So yes, if the top 10 in PVP leaves, OPR is dead, because there is not enough people to get it started. If OPR dies, I have no reason to play, so I’m leaving as well

I’m pretty sure I had a worst life than you. I’m still invested in this game. It’s my money and my time, not yours, so go do your bussiness and stop bothering. If you don’t care, why the heck are you here?

Just how many players REALLY care about the Leaderboards? Aren’t there far important things?

Nobody wanted leader-boards, and nobody asked for leader-boards and nobody cared about leader-boards. According to the NW forums.

Until they got leader-boards.

Now everybody wants leader-boards and everybody cares about leader-boards. According to the NW forums.

AGS is damned if they do and damned if they dont with this crowd.
