Game Time Duration?


Rapture

Recommended Posts

As always, please dont see this as complaining or expectancy. I am fairly new and just like to give my outside ideas in case something just happens to hit a designer just right at the moment, or maybe even gives them an idea for something else.....

 

I see some numbers that continue to go up during game play but I dont fully understand them. Is there a way to know how long a game has been going?

 

Also, when I first launch the game and you see the list of servers you can join in the player vs player area (Cant remember the correct terminology), it would be nice if we could see something that tells us how long the current game had been going there. If I see a game has been going for an hour and it is a map that tends to have shorter games, I could hang out and wait for an opening to get in if it is full. If it is a map that tends to have long games and it just started, I could leave, go do something else and come back and try in an hour. 

If possible, what would really help is if the server list would give a count of how many buildings have been destroyed on each side.  It wouldnt even have to say for what side.  0-3 would mean that one side has no buildings destroyed and the other has 3 buildings destroyed. Then we would know the game is closer to getting over and we could keep an eye on the player count to open a place for us to join.

Currently I see a server is 64 players and is full. I have no idea how long it has been going on. It could have just started and could be 30 minutes to 3 hours or more before a spot opens for me to join. A little more info would help those who cant get to the game until it is already filled.

If you miss it ingame, the timer is at the bottom center. The number next to the cup/trophy is points, one underneath is players.

Hopefully we can add more information to the server browser and the launcher, it would be useful to have that information available to players.

It should be trivial to add to the server list if it's needed, since game time is already tracked.
