It would be cool to have a proper rest-api.
Whether BHVR want all that data public is another question though, but as a fan, I'd be interested, even to just make dumb little queries...
Likee how many
traitorsdistortion users manage to escape on average... Or investigate why the hell Boil Over is so popular, when all it does is make the killer mark you for death...As a baseline, I think it would be nice to publicize all of the data that already is available as if everyone were to document all of their games, which wouldn't contain any identifying information of course. It's hard to think of a reason why BHVR wouldn't want all of this to be publicly known.
Of course, everything can have a ton more properties, the structure can be different, etc. etc. but something like this but much more sophisticated could make its way into our hands, allowing us to analyze the data for ourselves and draw a lot of points, while keeping it in the scope of the game. I don't really see a reason why BHVR would deny us information of a game that we can just report as a community. All an API would do is give us a more complete picture of everything.
