So there have been reports of people actually liking the idea of a Blind Colo. 

 

This will likely be fixed soon, but please give us your opinions on an idea of a Colo where you cannot see the rankings. It seems like many classes that were never able to win before, were able to win today.

This was fun, so +1 to blind colo

 

I know it's probably common sense that we should be able to see our own ranks, BUT... not being able to see your own rank kinda makes you try hard 100% of the time, and that's good!

 

When I'm #1-5 I usually go in a room and AFK to advance, but this makes it a lot more interesting I guess lol

Yeah would be better to see our own ranks, but not visible to others. And also the kills too. :p_idea:

In the 4th round, you'll lose so much points if you die after the last batch of monster is summoned. Squishy classes need to know their rankings so we can decide to get out of trouble or kill something. This blind colo is stupid IMO. Sorry.

I love this blind colo idea. Sure it was unintentional but it works! Most great ideas derive from accidents and this is definitely one of them!

 

Some thoughts/Ideas (up for debate)

- Let US SEE OUR OWN RANKS! At least for rounds 1-3(In these rounds, there's a ton of people, so even if you are rank 1-5 the other players still have a chance to kill other players rather than tunnel you!), leave it out of rounds 4 and 5 so that way it forces the players to keep fighting rather than getting 1-2 kills then hiding in a corner somewhere or kiting and turning the round into a game of chase the mouse.

 

- DO NOT SHOW RANKS TO OTHER PEOPLE. Doing this will only promote ganging and tunneling and I mean really, should it be fair when you get rank 1 then get ganged up on by 5-10 different people just because you're a high rank? Leave it out, it causes a more FFA friendlier environment(When I say this I mean, KILL ALL THE PLAYERS! :D)

 

- Obviously let us see our kill count. Not knowing if we expertly KSed somebody or messed up royally is kind of annoying.

 

- Add a Kill/Death count. You know like CoD lol.

 

On a side note. ADD BATTLEGROUNDS, In styles such as Capture the Flag, Team Death Match and Domination. (PLEASE!)

I'm pretty fine with not showing rankings but I'd like to see my own kills.

 

Actually, instead of ranking, you could show Mob kills along with Player kills

Put back kill count... but blind ranking is soo much fun! i vote to retain it :heh:

 

 

and this is somewhat an ANTI-Premade Feature (since they dont know their rank... they try KS their own Teamates coz they are not sure if they can advance themselves :heh: )

Just put back the kill counter for keeping track of kills. But we should not be able to see our own ranks or the ranks of others (including the list of names), so people don't hide like a coward to win.

Still mixed about it, but there needs to be some indication on whether or not you're in the green or red for the next round progression as long as it still advances you based on ranking.

I'm with Onihime on this one~

 

I like how rogues/sins can't hide throughout the 5th round and get one kill to get #1 anymore.

I'm an advocate for blind colo. I may go in recreationally more often if it's permanent.

The whole advantage of us not knowing our own ranks is so we are motivated to keep killing. Running/hiding should be rewarded with a kick out of colo.

That is because you're stupid. Sorry.

 

Its stupid to actually be forced to fight in an arena? Rather than sniping and running into the two rooms to hide/turtle?

Terrible, my rogue got eliminated in round 2 because I couldn't gauge how much the kills I got were worth, and so I couldn't know to start hitting monsters instead. Instead of encouraging smarter play it just dumbs things down to "attack everything you see", which I would think would be even worse for melee classes who have a hard time against ranged as it is, but now can't tell whether or not they should just farm monsters or if they can try to kill #1 and avoid elimination.

Until they realize that Sorcs got the highest chance to know if they last hit a dude or not and thus will result to another hiding and running......except that not a lot of people will chase after that Sorc coz they don't see his rank.

I believe so it gets more exciting, this forces the players contesting to the end to guarantee the result. The score should be show over time to track the results in the end. And the score for those who pass the second round should be a bit higher.
