Thought about progression talk and what is annoying me most in GW2 pvp?

Its not balance, engine errors (ok culling maybe…oO^^) or that there isnt anything to go for… For me its mostly about scores/stats and the competition, that goes with it in pvp (and even pve)…

In WvW I am MISSING:
- better squad / commander ui …(but got discussed to death…^^)

- some sort of battle report system after a fight & match…
Kinda like Eve or strategy games do it.
Even part of a zerg you still like to see how you and others contributed…and those 3 (buggy) medals dont do it for me pvp-wise.
Was the enemy zerg doing heavy on crit and that got your zerg “steam-rolled” or did they compensated the dps via heals etc.?
How much supplies was used during fighting, blueprints deployed/finished, siege destroyed?
Adding some info WONT reduce GW2 to some sort of Excel battle, because your skill with keys & mouse actually DOES REALLY matter (unlike in Eve).

In Tpvp I am MISSING:
- more scores & stats after a match…
Its switches to fast into the next map. Some sort of log maybe for the matches done?

- stats and scores…
To really compare myself with other pvpers. Its not about win/loss or some “average score” only, but HOW I won/lost “exactly”, like doing more crits, dps, heals etc. And even helps to look for team/guild members If ur searching someone who is an expert at like healing.

…and to customize my map rotation/modes/times/… ( like every 0815-ego-shooter…)

Do I need some progression (aka leveling) system?
NO, BUT SCORES/STATS
To better my playstyle is MY pvp Progression…
…and “showing it off” by my teams / guilds / personal scores & stats & ladder-rank.
(Thus leveling/progression isnt needed, but ok aslong its not hindering me.)

Guess, also RTS, OlSchoolStrategists like to have more info/numbers on how things went in a fight / battle / match.
Knowing your rank 2 and won against rank 10 is sweet to know, but not whats really about for most pvpers
(esüecially longterm…and even in soccer, basketball and else its not ONLY about win:loss ratio, but they like to get “nerdy with numbers”,too^^ ).
