Bedrock Give leaderboards a purpose

[fionnjackp14]

Alright so please book hate on this statement right here, but aren't leaderboards a little bit... pointless? I mean it's a huge flex on your friend and the community... but I mean... is there any point? It's kinda like the whole level system itself. I mean if you are like charxzz and are top of a lb then sure it's pretty good, but nobody really cares if you are 48th on lucky islands duels leaderboard.... I say, add some stuff that come with being on a leaderboard so ppl notice you in lobbies even if you're no high or on a big one. My ideas include; 50-40 on lb "whatever game" top player 39-25 "whatever game" legend 24-11 "whatever game" absolute try hard and finally 10-2 "whatever game" God. Actually finally this time; The top "whatever game" er. Please no hate, happy new year and have a good evening or day

I also propose adding some other exclusive cosmetics ( I thought of this as soon as i clicked post xd)

@Pro Winnaar why do you disagree?

Not everything has to have a particular purpose. Not to mention that if players who are #50 or higher in any leaderboard get rewards for it, what's the point of actually actively competing when so many different people have a 'special' title that it becomes a common sight.

I have suggested before to give players who are in the top ~3 a special prefix, but I believe that should really be it. Again, not everything needs to have a particular purpose. Leaderboards are generally there to just show off.

Pro Winnaar why do you disagree?

You can't force people to respond and explain their opinion. A disagree reaction should say enough, they disagree, for some particular reason. Some people don't feel the need to respond, as it takes time and it isn't a priority. You should probably refrain from constantly tagging people asking them to explain themselves in your suggestion threads.

Hmm or maybe new prefix, for example
You are top 25
You get a new prefix ( lb 25 )
And ....
Idk idk

I was also thinking of a prefix, maybe just a "Leaderboard" prefix since adding a prefix for each number would be a bit much.

Ye tbh I wasn't really thinking over the prefix bit so I would split up 50-25 being leaderboard and 24-1 being top leaderboard maybe. Like this I you agree and put the angry face if you disagree

Yeah I think this is the most ideal way to go about the prefixes

For me personally it would be a dream to get onto at least #50 on a leaderboard. It would be kind of disappointing to finally make it onto a leaderboard only to not get a prefix while other people higher up on that same leaderboard do receive one; so I agree that there should be a “Leaderboard” prefix and an additional prefix for the top section of the leaderboard

I can imagine leaderboard players being biased towards the idea of getting onto a leaderboard being easy, which is fair enough considering their perspective, but I don’t think it’s simply that easy…

Also, those who do get the prefix aren’t all guaranteed to use it at the same time; some players might prefer a more personalized prefix (i.e. from a bundle), or switch between various prefixes over time; it depends on the person I guess

Getting on some leaderboards is extremely difficult. For instance, for Eggwars squads you need to get around 8000 wins to get on. Additionally, your perspective of it being common to be on a leader board is extremely flawed. I don’t think the average player has thousands of wins in a single game and grinds every day. The leaderboards require a lot of effort to get on especially the more popular ones like Eggwars or Skywars.
I also disagree with the fact that you believe adding a leaderboard prefix will make it less competitive. Many people grind games to get on leaderboards to increase their status. A new, exclusive prefix may prompt a huge number of players to grind. This would increase cubecraft’s active community because these players would come back in order to achieve their goals. This will actually make the leaderboard more competitive because it adds an incentive. This incentive being a leaderboard prefix requires constant upkeep which makes the current leaderboard players want to grind in order to maintain it while newer players grind to get the prefix.
I suggest giving leaderboard players placed 50-25 the prefix “(whatever game) Leaderboard.” Players 25-4 should be “Top (whatever game) player.” Finally I believe the top 3 should have “lb (whatever game) 1st, 2nd or 3rd.”
If they are on multiple leaderboards they should get Leaderboards+.

I agree with this.

I'm 2nd on Solo SkyWars on Java but we don't get rewarded. I only think you should give this to Top 20 or something. If you're 186th for example no one would care anyways. With a prefix it should say which place you are, not top 10-20 or like that, that'd be ugly. Saying the place you are on the leaderboard looks better. Also cool cosmetics would be good too. Playing this game for years. If you go pass people on the leaderboard it's the only award. It should be also Java, not only on Bedrock.

I never said I didn’t want there to be a prefix in general, I just think for #50 onwards is a bit unnecessary. It’s not just one game this is about, it can be any game or mode’s leaderboard, hence to me it feels like players would find it way more common than if only top 10 or top 5 onwards would have a prefix - and an additional cosmetic or two.

Also, how would it work for their spots? If they lose they spot, do they lose their cosmetic? What if #29 is outplayed by #30, do they lose their #29 prefix? Between these further down the ladder places there usually is less competition (them being closer together in wins) than around the top 10. I just think that if they were given cosmetics, it should be kept special by only giving them to the top 10 or top 5 leaderboard players.

I agree with this and was wanting to make a thread about this myself.

I was thinking of players in top 50 get a number corresponding to their rank shown above their heads. Just like players when people see the tags. And as well as that the players get special bundles given to them while they are on LB however as soon as they loose the LB they lose these benefits

I agree with the suggestion of tags only going up for the top 50. I also like the idea you brought up of giving higher players cosmetics other than a prefix.

Also, how would it work for their spots? If they lose they spot, do they lose their cosmetic? What if #29 is outplayed by #30, do they lose their #29 prefix? Between these further down the ladder places there usually is less competition (them being closer together in wins) than around the top 10. I just think that if they were given cosmetics, it should be kept special by only giving them to the top 10 or top 5 leaderboard players.

I don’t really think the prefix should show the position for this reason except for the top 3. I suggested earlier players ranked 50-25 are given the prefix “(whatever game) leaderboard.” Players 25-4 should be given “Top (whatever game) player.” Finally, only the top 3 I believe should be numbered. If u fall out of these groups, you should be down graded. For example if you were 2nd but fell to 10th, you would be downgraded from 2nd ->3rd->Top (whatever game) player. If u fall off the leaderboards, you would lose the prefix. This avoids the problem of having people who grind new games for one day, get on leaderboards, and then fall off the next day.

I agree or it could be better than to congratulate the 50 in lb give them a small gift. Although I had in mind that restarted the lb for the new players, maybe everyone disagrees but it would be better

Ye I was kind of thinking maybe a monthly leaderboard alongside the endless one would be GREAT. Especially as someone like @ignsinf being top of the ffa lb for ages, to get some variety would be nice
