Overall chat ranks

[reero]

I think it would be cool to add a chat rank for your overall rank. Overall ranks are interesting and can act as a motivator for some of us to play classes that aren't their main. Thoughts?

[Syro]

I've always liked this idea. I would love to see it added.

valve add this and give me one

[HOI]

yes pls

Specifically in chat instead of the S or D used to show a player's main main it could show O for players whos highest rank is their overall one so that u know whats up. This change would probably not require anything other than the chat prefix shown to be modified but might encourage players to be more mindful of other classes so that we can maybe avoid so many maps being designed for demo and 100% wallpogo for soldier or designed for soldier and all triple pre magic for demo.

Since the overall rank would only be smaller than your best class rank in fairly unusual cases it should probably take precedence over a class rank if your overall and class rank are the same, but i'm not so sure about this. Maybe it could be a niche user option?

Overall rank is only higher if you have similar demo/soldier rank, that's what it would mean

That’s a bit optimistic don’t you think

This would have very little of at all any influence on map creation

10 hrs - Spectator™
50 hrs - Watcher™
100 hrs - Viewer™
200 hrs - Observer™
300 hrs - Onlooker™

500 hrs - Bystander™
600 hrs - Witness™

Lmao 1000h top rank thats a baby task. How about 1 rank every 1000 hours, that sounds better.

You should also get bonus point for sending cool !cp, thats the true spec skill
