Guild Wars 2

Pro Dev team gods, will there be any personal post season stat summaries, or is it something you can whip up?

I’m talking individual classes played, wins/losses based on class, total matches played, total matches played in each tier, average to advance a tier, season deaths, season kills, average averages, etc etc etc. Pretty much a pro season breakdown of how godly we were as individuals.

Pips won and pips lost might be fun.

I’m sure others have even more interesting things we’d like to see.

Number of times flamed for playing warrior?

There’s no such thing.

That stuff might be available via the API.

Edit: It’s not. Sad day ;(

I’d love to see this too. Unfortunately, the stats would be dismal. I’m not expecting anything like this, though I hope that anet is keeping internal records AND READING THEM.

API shows only the last 10 matches, sadly.
I also would like to know the statics over the entire season.

They do have longer records buried in deeper code though.

Yeah, if they’re smart they’d partition their database such that only the latest 10 records (per player) are in the “hot” partition, and the rest are in the historic ones.

The problem is, if they did this, that means it’s not really viable for an API to grab this data, as querying across partitions usually takes a significant amount of time.

For instance, you can only have one index on a partitioned database. Which is bound to increase search time significantly over large data sets when you’re searching for more than just 1 variable. And player name probably doesn’t make sense being the index here.

Then again, they’re a game company. So whether my knowledge of relational databases actually means anything to them, remains to be seen.

:P

I would like to see statistics for the season, I would find it very interesting. The most important stat for me would be the percentage of people that reached each league. I really tried- and am still trying- to grind out the leagues this season and would love to see if I am in the top 5% for example.
