Sorting Battles by Ranks and Time


Recommended Posts

I would love to see implemented a way for us to be able to sort battles by minimum/maximum ranks, duration of the battle, time left to end, score, etc., instead of just by the name of the map like it is now. There are maps in which  I don't have any interest in playing, or maps with far above ranks then me and this would save a lot of time we sometimes spend looking for the right battle.

I agree - I've wanted a feature like this for a while, in the battle list and in the friends list.

 

In the friends list, I often find myself clicking on a battle link, only to find that there's no room, or some other factor that keeps me from joining. It would be nice to see that information up front.

While it would be nice to be able to sort battles any way we wanted, I suspect that the effort that would have to go into the programming would far outweigh the (rather marginal) benefits.

Since this new "Unified Battle List" thing has rolled out, it's becoming more and more difficult to search for fun battles at your rank. I suggest an additional filter be introduced, possibly near the current Battle Filters(?) where you can sort the battles from highest/lowest rank playable. This way, we can look for battles at our rank, or lower. It's extremely annoying when most battles seem to be much higher ranked. Basically, this would just save a lot of time and make filtering through the battle list more convenient.

Under review

Completed

 

A filter that shows only battles of a rank limit you want, or simply only shows battles up to your rank would be nice.

So if this is already possible pls let me know.

 

Right now when I go to battle list, I can modify the Battle Selection by game TYPE, ctf, dm t dm and cp.

 

I would like an additional filter placed in. So that I can select the highest rank available. 

 

So I can select a game where the highest rank is x. 

 

I have a lower account. And half the battles are way out of my league at that level. I'm constantly outgunned. So if I could edit the battle list so that it only showed a couple above my rank and below would be easier.

It will be confusing for many, and it will reduce the chances of the rank brackets being reduced. With rank filter you can find battles where you are the top rank, while many others will continue to enter battles where they are the lowest ranks. The best solution is to reduce the rank bracket so everyone will benefit from it to a certain point, and since the bracket is shorter, the battle list will be shorter and you can still pick battles where you are the top rank, and easier.

this should be declined. the whole purpose of the unified battle list  was to prevent people from creating more battles, if you create filters for another seperate category people would be able to create empty battles more easily and abuse the missions system.

say i'm a big noob who cannot finish first/capture a flag, i simply create a battle with the battle button with me at the top of the bracket so i can bully everyone who joins and get easy flags/kills out of them.

Sorry, I don't understand what your comment has to do with the proposed idea. Also, I'd disagree with your point of the Unified Battle List being "mainly to prevent people from creating more battles." This filter will only order the Battle List from lowest-highest maximum rank playable (or vice versa).

i think it was me who misunderstood you. i thought the filters you're proposing would work like the battle mode ones we currently have whereby we can create a battle of a specific mode with the battle button if a battle of that mode doesn't exist or are all already full. if what you're proposing won't make it easier for people to only join battles where they're the highest rank then i have nothing against this idea

Basically my Idea is that there is a bar just like the one used when you create battles down there next to the game mode filter. That way, you can find a battle to play with your low ranked friends, instead of clicking on each one and checking the rank bracket.

This would be great, to add in bottom of battle list screen (near buttons to choose DM/TDM/CTF/CP), like settings. I am trying to find a  battle where is my rank highest, but i always end up joining a battle where Generallisimo is highest, and Lieutenant Colonel (+/- 1 rank) is lowest.
