Default Re: High scores table or hall of fame

You are right, Baron. But I still want to see SCORES HISTORY.

You said that comparing scores is meaningless. That's right. But saving scores history is still good feature for SE4?
(NOT COMPARING, JUST ONLY HISTORY)

Yes, the reason is obvious. Even if you ignore the fact that that game can be easily modified, or setup a special scoreboard for every major mod, the conditions of game play are so wildly variable that comparing scores is meaningless. A game with 'Only colonize your own atmosphere' and 'Only colonize your own planet type' enabled is completely different than a game with all planets available. A game with stellar manipulations techs disabled is completely different than a game that allows them. There's no end to the possible variations. So, there's no reason for MM to try to build a "Hall of Fame" or other score tracking into the game. That only works for video games or other very narrow systems.
