stat tracking, statistics and more!

[Pixelwarrior 6]

I think i heard somewhere that the new dayzsa will have stat tracking system and stuff on a forum for each dayz account made.

but i think dayzsa could do better and do something like battlefield3, you have a interface in the game with all you're stats and so on.

DayZ hasn't become popular by copying other games.

Hello there

Also, I think leaderboards/stats (as we know them) almost "force" a playstyle on folk. Personally, I'd prefer not to have any in the traditional sense.

However Rocket and his goblins may come up with a new slant on it, if indeed it's on his todo list.

they don't have to copy it to the "T" but something along those lines would be good.

a interface in the game to check stats and other things.

I tend to agree with Orlok in that having stats tends to make people "grind" to show off their stats to friends. If it's not done carefully it could encourage certain playstyles which would be a bad thing IMO.

I don´t believe that stats would do anything good for the game. If it´s going to be diffrent from a fps game you should make other goals then make people count how many kills they have.

Maybe some surviving stat of somekind, time survived would be a thought

The less stats the better when it comes to combat.

If there are going to be stats it should be survival stats. To encourage players to stay alive and put more value into a characters existence. Characters are too disposable as they are now.
