Rank History.

I suggest that a "Rank History" page be added, so you can see how your rank has dropped or improved, so you can see (for example) that after you spent 400 million on defence, you jumped a few hundred, or after an attack you dropped 100 ranks. I think this will help, as instead of logging on to find you are now 20 ranks less than earlier in the day, you can see exactly how your rank has been dropping.

That would be really cool, if there was a place where you could see your rank for the past few days or a week. I know its unlikely, but a graph would be good as well, so you can visually see your highs and lows in the rankings.

What else, really, needs to be added to the game? There isn't much more that could be added imo. Soon, things like this will need to be added to improve the aesthetics of the game. This would be a great addition, however small, it would still be helpful to have.

Question: Is Wolf359 ruining the fun/intrigue of the idea?
Answer: Yes
It may not help the game, but it would be a nice bit of added info...
Whats the point of commander rating?
Why do we need our email address on our base page?
Why do we need to know how many mercinaries our officers hae in the commander/officer section?
its all added info, although now i do wonder about the email address one...
to access the account, you need an email adress... hmmm... so you should know it, to even be able to see it in base page...

You made my point for me - it is a nice to have. There are bigger things to be looked at/implemented before the nice to haves should be implemented - everyone keeps banging on about 'When will Chaos be released?' - sooner, if the nice to haves are put to one side.
What I was trying to point out in my previous post is that before you post you should ask yourself some basic questions......
1. Will my suggestion actually add anything to the game?
2. Does what i want already exist in a different way? (in the case of this suggestion - yes)
3. Are there more pressing suggestions being discussed/considered which will mean that my suggestion will be put on the back burner/ignored? (the idea with this one being that your suggestion will not be as well received if there are more pressing changes being discussed - better to wait a while to get a better reception).
I was not, as you put it, trying to take fun/intrigue out of the idea - I was speaking as a mod and a player who has seen many such suggestions posted in the last 11 months - and, from experience, suggestions such as this are shelved or dismissed because of bigger priorities.

WHY IS HE ALLWAYS RIGHT ? aaaarrrrrrrrhhhhhhhh
I would like to add one thing to your idea mack, what about a 'The best rank' button, it tell you what your best ever rank was, wouldnt be to hard, and could go under the stats on command centre,
Bad wolf waits for some ace comment from Wolf359, but the bad thing is bad wolf knows Wolf 359 is allways right,

Wouldn't even need to be a button - could just be there as a readable stat - shouldn't take much programming - you could also add a sort of average rank stat - maybe averaged over the last 50 or so days - but these are 'nice to haves'.
