A nice concept to imitate qs would be -when a game is host on ep- to have an option to hide player name and civ in the room (also player rank cause you can guess who is who) and in the game browser but i don't know if it's possible to implement.
This is an interesting idea.
Unfortunately I don't think it's possible. You could maybe anonymize a user, but doing so would likely require anonymizing them for the duration of the game, making the resulting rank calculation and ladder results also anonymized (i.e., broken). Futher, Microsoft/ESO probably wouldn't like it.
You could anonymize users client-side, but someone could just log into non-EP to see the listed game, or capture their network traffic (or build/use a tool that does so) to see the real user.
ah yea, everyone can check ip... what a bad conception.
I guess its also not possible to do like for ep game : show infos about game host on discord but this time for qs game : indicate if a player is waiting on qs ? @musketeer925
Hmm, we might be able to capture events when someone enters quicksearch queue on EP and send it to our server. We could probably also capture how long it takes people to get games in quicksearch and report e.g., "in the last hour quicksearch took 10 minutes to match players".
We could report with that a rough idea of rank but randomized a bit
Good ideas?
Fun fact; we already show QS rooms on both the API & discord bot, they just appear as regular rooms pretty much. It would be nice to make them more distinct and only show rank as you say.
