Hi

So muliplayer is out of the question,but I had the idea a Global database of Onlink Stats/rankings accessible ingame and be able to be update through the client upon connecting to the server.

would be very interesting to keep track of all the hacks/systems destroyed,playtime/etcetera, by your alias and collected by the server and compiled unto a leader board online,thus replacing the fake ranking system you are engaged in with the AI and having a friendly global competition with fellow Onlink addicts.

just throwing that out there.

Then we get to the question of making sure all stats submitted are legit/valid...

One of the issues is that in the ARC storyline (which I do plan to keep), the head guy gets the axe.

...and the second guy too.

I can probably hobble something together barring those two exceptions. Thoughts?

Well, it doesn't necessarily have to replace the normal rank thing. After all one would want to see more information, right?

Although isn't it still currently a problem if the player is #1 before the guy gets killed?

Yeah, but it would be a little weird to have it say "top ranking agent killed" and have him not even show up in the top ten :p

Another thing I'd like to add, is even with the limited vanilla stats that the game does keep track of, is that you can't even see them in full until you get disavowed by uplink.

even changing that as a start would be a welcome addition by many I'm sure... or maybe I'm just being picky.

edit:lol speaking of dead agents..there's always a bunch of agents dead in my games... I always sell them out by doing the mole mission

I wonder what happens if you kill off all the agents before that mission shows up...
