It always interesting how the ranks of players are, with or against one plays. Why not show important stats like current rank, peak rank and HS% generally regardless which game mode it is?

websites like Tracker.gg have this data available as they haven't undergone data wipes in the past.

we've done this a few times as we've changed providers in order to seek the best host and data structure, this sadly required us to eventually to wipe our database and start from 0, meaning that we only had the data from the episode we started on.

Ok, that's an explanation I understand. So it was just bad luck, that you had to wipe your data in the past. However, given the fact that you hopefully run on a stable system now, what holds you back from collecting data and start running the statistics from now on? Like the law of large numbers your calculation would be erratic at the beginning but smoothing out with time passing and data flowing into the system.

wait, i should re-read the message tbh

uncut agate
#

No my mistake, I've made two suggestions. I mostly refer to the other one

#

However, same is valid for this as well

#

the headshot percentage we do show in every gamemode if i remember correctly.

however, the data again is limited, specifically to the last 5 matches.
i'm not 100% sure what the reason was, i can ask if really interested, but that's the way it currently is.

If you start collecting all rank data accordingly to riots terms (as tracker.gg does it as well, just for a longer time), in the future you will have accurate data from let say Episode 7 onwards

oh yeah 100%, we are collecting data atm, just only from players that are using Blitz though, as we're not allowed to collect data from users that did not explicitly approve us collecting their data ingame. (aka the non Blitz users)

i just asked regarding why we only show the last 5 games of a person when presenting their data ingame, and it couldn't be answered as it was designed by someone who left the company

#

if there is data you wanna see, you can always just suggest it and we can discuss and review it internally, things that weren't possible back then can always be possible in the future

I get it. Blitz is on a bumpy road. See, I'm involved in some enterprise software development projects - on the UX/UI side - and I see this kind of problems all the time. Bad management decisions, against any advise and so on. However, I dont get tired to at least try to improve things around me ๐Ÿ˜‰

#

Btw, tracker.gg has it's own problems as well. Like with user rights management for example. Or server reliability - there are a lot of server errors, where the API doesn't respond properly, obviously losing connection etc. an hour later it works but it is annoying as well.

#

they might have the same issue we have, where it fails to get the data because we can somehow only see 9 players in a match whilst in reality its 10

#

rare thing, but it happens.

#

however

#

we have proven quite often that their data is sometimes fake

uncut agate
#

its not so rare at tracker

icy bough
#

i've seen in the past where they gave incorrect numbers and data, we just weren't sure why cuz yk, we're not tracker, but their data was inaccurate, or simply fake (maybe someone elses data idk)

uncut agate
#

maybe interpolation at some point?

#

But most of the time I could prove in my matches, that the calculation were correct

#

I even counted my shots one time

#

But tracker.gg doesnt manage to show me my profile without publishing it for all using the page. Thats why I dont want to use it anymore

#

That's why I try to give you guys some advise to enrich your platform with missing features from tracker ๐Ÿ˜‰

#

you can private it from what i remember

uncut agate
#

nope, I had a dispute with them as well

damn

uncut agate
#

Make private means, you cant see it at all

#

It's either public or not available

icy bough
#

oh wtf

#

that's really dumb lol

uncut agate
#

Yes, absolutely

#

blitz does a good job regarding this issue

icy bough
#

alteast something we're doing good lol

#

o well, anyways!

if there are any other suggestions, simply throw them in a new message and i'll forward + process them.

uncut agate
#

Nah, come on, you know there is much more ๐Ÿ™‚ - however, there is always room to improve
