The in-game profile, the archetype list, a bar redesign

The profile card you see in the game now shows on your dossier too; there's a new page describing every archetype; and a small redesign of the top and bottom bars.

The in-game profile, now on your dossier

The avatar, the frame, the title under your name, three badges and three stat counters - everything you picked on the profile screen in the game itself now shows on your dossier as well, in a panel of its own below your name.

The Profile section of a dossier: the framed in-game avatar, title and badges on the left, the MMR and K/D boxes beside them, and three stat counters below, each carrying its own rank

There's nothing else to set up - the card is already showing for everyone who has one. And the stats people picked for their profiles are already behind dozens more leaderboards.

Customising the "headline" stats on your dossier

The stat picker open on a dossier's Bounty box, listing the ranked stats the box can be switched to - kills, deaths, assists, team-mates slain, teams wiped, bounty, banished and the token extracts

The dossier header has always been MMR and K/D. Now that the profile card sits there too, some stats can overlap: if you want to show K/D on your in-game profile, it would duplicate a little with the K/D box baked into the dossier on the tracker. So those two boxes can be customised now - put the stats you most want to show off in them.

We also put a chart of the chosen stat's changes into the background. You can't really tell much from it, but it looks nice.

A description of every archetype there is

Every tracked player is given one of 80 archetypes, and the whole list can now be seen on the Playstyles page. That link is always in your archetype card on your dossier, so you definitely won't lose it.

There are plenty of archetypes, but even so, the statistics we have make it hard to pin your style down for certain. So keep in mind that this is more of a fun feature.

A redesign of the navigation bars

The bottom navigation bar on a phone: Roster, Pulse, Watchlist, Party Finder and Your dossier, with Your dossier lit

The top navigation bar has been reworked a bit: some icons added, buttons moved around, and in general, well, we gave it a bit of attention. And on mobile there is now a bar along the bottom, which should make getting around the site easier still.

Everything else

  • The History tab on a dossier now matches your plan: 30 days free, 3 months on Contractor, and all the history there is on Banisher and up. Your own dossier stays unlimited on any plan. The charts were already trimmed, and the history was a bit out of step with the general logic.
  • Playing Quick Play now counts toward the "Updated" field on a profile. Previously, stat updates from that mode had no effect on a profile's last-updated time.
  • And a great many other odds and ends.

Thanks, everyone, for the support! 🙂
