There is no practical way to check the leaderboards of episodes. Judging by the replies I suppose people like to do that. The only question here is why would the post even be a thing if CI3U is not even public yet.
I originally made the 5U one because there was no way to track other people’s attempts in game, unlike the Anniversary mission. OWL made the 4U one to follow suit, even though I made mine when it first arrived on Live.
Maybe because the episodes in CIU are still experimental feature? After they get added for real there is nothing stopping IA from adding official leadearboard just like anniversary mission (or CI1U if we follow the naming scheme)
+1 for that. PlasmaX put it nicely into words why.
I guess, that can be excused. But creating a new topic for every episode ain’t exactly a best solution.
And where exactly did I say that? Or where did you conclude it from?
Share and compare as you please, but organize it better. Do we need a topic for every mission? This topic is just like PlasmaX said - for attention and to have a popular topic.
CI5U came out, and removed. Now CI4U too, and will be removed soon. This will probably the same when CI3U or even CI2U come out too.
Just stop, at least not this moment, since I haven’t seen the Beta test of it yet.
Overall, why we even need this topic while the Leaderboard topic like this and be lived in only few weeks?
(If iA removed it away then no one will post in that topic more.)
Example: Since CI5U got removed, I am sure no one will post more in the Unofficial CI5U Leaderboard topic, at least until iA wants to put it in the game again, but mostly no, because it’s highly possible that it’s going to be a paid-feature.
No, I prefer topics which is more useful then.
Also the CIU Forum is always alive, even with nothing new in a day.
So for me, I would love to see some inactive useful posts rather than just creating some unnecessary one to keep it active.
May I ask, which topics do you believe are useful?
True. Every day, I see at least one notification (excluding notifications). The forums are still living 'till the end!
Well, some ‘‘unnecessary topics’’ such as (and especially) Post your Quest Rank! helped keeping me active. Try counting how many times I posted in Plasma’s topic.
Nobody’s forced to post in new topics, everybody chooses to post or not in a specific new topic, for their own reasons (which we all have to respect). And I choose to post in a new topic of my choice because I have something I’d like to say about it. For my own reasons.
First - make it a wiki. Or have someone active in charge of editing the main topic. Then make a “hide details” section for every episode. When somebody wants to share their score they need to post a screenshot with it and then add the score to the main post or wait for the owner to add it.
CI5U highscores
389.653.456 - recruit name
328.372.421 - recruitv2
CI4U highscores
389.653.456 - recruit name
328.372.421 - recruitv2
CI3U highscores
389.653.456 - recruit name
328.372.421 - recruitv2
That way you can have a pseudo real leaderboard and compare every score instantly without browsing the screenshots. You can also add anniversary mission or whatever special mission comes in the future (at least until it gets official leaderboard)
Yeah, even the OP was honest and chose the topic anwser.
Also, I just noticed how the word “Leaderboards” is actually spelled in the title. If it wasn’t for Firefox’s “hover-over-to-reveal-URL” feature, I… still would have noticed that, except later.
