In-game window for reclaim of all players

Postby --- » 05 Apr 2014, 19:27

Would it be possible to add a little window where u can see the reclaim for all players when watching a replay? It would be ideal if u could make the window appear/dissappear when watching replays as observer (like you can with every other window on the screen, e.g. the mini-map). That way you could see all reclaim numbers without having to switch through the perspective of each player. Maybe casters would enjoy this feature as well.

If you click in a replay on a player you can see his reclaim which is very useful to see for example on seton who got more middle mass etc. or you want to see all at once this would be to much. And i think not useful. It is enough to compare with clicking through since reclaim does not change so much at once it grows slowly.

I think what would be nice for casts would be when you are in observe all mode to display the whole reclaim of both teams. So you just have 2 rows you can directly compare both teams or in case of 1vs1 both players.

I can't really find what you described. Anway, I disagree and think it would be very useful for two reasons:

1. You see all reclaim numbers at once and dont waste time waiting for the reclaiming number for each player showing up (I experince a tiny lag when switching between players). With 8 players on e.g. Seton's Clutch that takes a while (and when u arrive at player 8, player 1 may already have way more reclaimed than before).
2. When watching a caster's replay who may has a look at the reclaim amount of only 2 of 8 players you also would see all the other players eventhough the caster doesnt explicitly look at them. This information in the current situation gets lost/is not shown.

All of this presupposes that the all-player-reclaim-window can be turned on/off in-game when being observer (probably would be too much information if you couldn't turn off all game - it probably would block too much of the view).
