    Guys, it's pretty clear that Rovio can record weapon damage and stuff. So, do YOU think we should have titles (like master sniper for n sniper cannon kills, or team wiper for n number of aces) that can be seen on our main profile? Do you think this will look good, or for whatever reason, do you disagree?

    Suggestions welcome...

    Maybe at higher infamy, say the top 500 people, There are a few titles but it goes to only one person. Like the person with the most sniper killes might be @Joeyaa or @TheAntiSnipe or the person with the most duct tape heals might be @Sewah. You could make one for every item and maybe for perks. That doesn't even start to tak into account the normal achievements. Maybe when you get an achievement it is displayed on your profile as a badge. Thinking to the other game I play, Clash Royale, When you unlock an achievement you can see that there are slightly different looking icons for each level of achievement. If you could display these on a profile page that would be awesome!

    I think having the option for a high member in a guild to give members titles would be better. Or they could have special names for commonly used loadouts such as cannon + flare gun. These titles could explain to your team/the enemy team what each player is like before the match starts.

    Actually, that's not a bad idea per se, but it is a double edged sword as well. Also involves a lot of code, imo. Also, how about we have titles for PLAYERS, and BADGES for weapons, like, the name of one's sniper cannon changes from "new" to "Bhurt's own" (copying a game called tf2). But that means the weapon in question should also be visible in terms of stays to other players.

    Oh, you flatter me. I may be called a master sniper but I'm only in the 1200s. The title existed before the update. Also, I named myself that because I was a pure sniper for my first 1.5k matches and I know ALL the nuances of that cannon. Changing it to TheAntiBlast soon, with position Master Blaster. How does that sound?

    I reckon unlocking titles for some of the heroic achievements, like the 3 kills with one torpedo unlocks the title "The Destroyer!" Or something.

    I also think that Captain points should start contributing to something, as currently they are kinda pointless.

    I'm not Zeus, but I think this would result in lots of (mentally challenged) people who enter the battle with common items just to earn a certain title/achievement.

    Well, then, let's make it so that the achievements can only be earned with skill. Example: Ace might give your ship a trail or something, and will be acquirable by killing five enemies in a 500+ infamy match, or as such. The objective is to make the game more colorful.

    Hell yeah. We need this, devs. If not in the next update(i know it wont be that fast lol) but soon. Trails, light decals that don't change the color of the ship, but improve on the looks, skins... Let's all have a colorful, vibrant bay

    The problem is, that would take much more data than it already does.

    It shouldn't be a lot. It only takes 277 mb for me and I have two other games one of which takes 3gb and other 1.2gb space.

    Lol dude. Guys, please give ideas and keep this thread alive. Devs need to read this, they most probably did read it as well. Let's see what @Zeus and @Miika and the others have to say.

    It won't. Same as the fact that the game maintains ship data, it will be added as well. So it's the same as if your phone is told 'a' is 'apple', it will save the other four letters.
