What stats would you like to see being tracked

    there's third party ones, but they can only track stats that are already tracked in the game for achievements

    They would have had to add this back when the game first came out. Due to the various UEA's with the consoles they can't go back in and add such data trackers for display, or like they said above those stats would have had to already be part of the Achievements or Trophy pages.

    This is part of the reason they don't roll out stat pages more often and more in depth, those UEA's prevent it. Even changing any achievement is a long and involved nightmare through the consoles.

    I see what your saying but this would just start as soon as implemented

    woulda been neat to have a bunch of stats. the cod: world at war forums let you link your account and you could view every statistic imaginable, even on consoles and that was 2 generations ago in 2008.

    Imagine if you could view the profile of an OP and see who their top performing killers are or what survivor perks they use the most, that would make for a real interesting change here lmao

    I don't think the end user agreements have anything to do with why the devs don't release summary charts more often. I think it's just a matter of they don't feel the need to spend time doing it more than one every few months.

    I always thought the data collection parts of it that are either always defaulted to off or reset to off on our consoles prevent them from displaying much of what they internally collect, outside of the game itself from the initial porting. But I am very far from being an expert.

    Also it might be embarrassing to show console numbers for Nurse & Trickster etc. pick rates and kills and the like. Hard to be proud of no one playing Hag in three years for instance.

    I vaguely remember one of the devs talking briefly in a dev chat years ago that one of the reasons they didn’t implement a historical stat screen was because, since it wasn’t in the game initially, they felt players would be confused if the data was on shown from date X forward and not from when they actually started playing. Personally I never really understood why that would be much of an issue (which is why it stuck out in my head), they could just say on the screen the data is from some specific start date and that clears it up, but who knows? 🤷‍♂️
