Why is there a different stat for every server individually, why not combine them together. More people would play on multiple servers if you ask me. Instead of one rank on office and another on dust.

Do none of the 38 people who viewed this have an answer ?

well i don't really see the point in your ranking on dust2 to carry onto office or vice versa. if i only play office, i wouldn't want to be stealing spots in top10 on dust ^^

Your not stealing points you have 1 top10 list on all servers combined, it would maybe bring more players from server to server. You only get points from people you kill or hosties or rounds won. Just a thought.

that's not what i meant. my interpretation from your post is that the stats for dust2 and office would be counted for each player as one...am i right or wrong?

From what i understand you want to take the score from all 4 servers and average them together to make 1 cumulative community rank... correct???

Yes if you had 1 rank combined rather than 1 rank for office and 1 rank for dust then some players might be more willing to play on both servers more often, thus fuller servers.

I don't think that this idea would work too well. The main problem is that scoring is equal (hs tally the same amount of points on all server, and so on) but objectives have different points (hostages and bomb plants). Not to mention that it would be far too easy to go into DM and just farm points. =P

DM should be different, thats completely a different type of game and format even though same guns. That has to be separate, but the others together would work it works for other server groups.

tbh i've never played on a server that has conjoined stats with another....i don't like the fact that i never play dust2, and most dust2 players don't ever play office, but we would be ranked together

I play on all servers but the ones that have it combined have more players are more popular, think outside the box get more new players to join the nu community. Last month on the NU office server it had 5139 different players out of all those players 75% of them didn't spend more than 1 hour in it, 42% of the 5139 players left before 5 minutes of play and never came back. 2161 players left and will most likely not return. Now im not saying that this will be the one thing that makes them stay but its a start and the servers have many other issues that make people leave after 5 minutes NU needs to grow in popularity and attract new players to the community.

i don't see how connecting stats between servers would help get more people to play. i'm not trying to shoot your idea down, i just don't want those shitty d2 players taking my rank on office :P

Im not saying its the only thing its not I thought I just said that in my previous post but heres an example you need help filling up the D2 server I don't play it on a regular basis I play Office. However if they were combined I would play both, just like I did on the EGO servers I played office, dust, dust2, and the rotation. No its not the only thing there are alot of other things that need to be done to attract new people not give them a reason to leave Im not saying stats give them a reason to leave or stay its all the other reasons I have that Ive brought to one of the owners. I was just wondering why they were not combined in the first part like I said I would be more apt to play multiple servers like Ive done in the past. Thats all.

I think a rotation server would bring more ppl in. Office is an overplayed map just like dust2. so maybe adding a rotation of solid maps would bring more ppl in. Combining the stats would make the servers more competitive however office players would have an advante over ranking since office is an easier map.
