I was just wondering whether the devs are planning on implementing a hiscores system? Even if they are rejecting the idea of having a page dedicated to users levels it would be nice to be able to have a score card or something similar available to place in signatures. I love being able to race up the leaderboards in games to try and become #1 - brings that extra competition into the game!

 

I'm not sure if this has already been suggested so I'm sorry if it's just a repeat.

It's been suggested quite allot. I think Zorg is working on it.. although we haven't had any feedback recently about it. :/

Shouldn't be that difficult, just add an extra player save into a SQL database and then show the results on a webpage! Hopefully they do add it though

I don't think it's a priority at the moment since they have other things to do before adding in a hiscores. I'm sure that they'll do it soon though so we'll just have to wait.

NO HIGH SCORE.

I'm not sure if it doesn't have much prio. If it doesn't, and they DO want to add it - it should have a decently high priority. The entertainment and gameplay value will go up in general. Simply, there will a core group of players that will play the game pureply focussed around gaining ranks in a 'high-score' system. It'll have a big impact on the game. Only for the better - if you don't care about ranks, you don't have to care, if you do, then there is one. Perfect, right?

 

EDIT: 

 

Also; please call it a 'ranking-system' - I know it's the same. But high-score makes me think of pacman.

It is definitely something we plan to do, but can't give you a time estimate at the moment. Both Zorg and I have a lot of work to do before we get around to ranking tables, but we'll make it awesome when we do get to it

Well, from what I've read on the forums, a hiscores system isn't something that they're prioritizing right now. Currently it's guild system, auction house (assuming they do implement an AH,) WASD, and camera angle. WASD and the camera angle especially because they're trying to get Eldevin on Steam. 

I avoid calling it a "ranking" system because I personally don't like the word.
