What counts as a victory or a loss?

Post by fishmonkey »

I played my two first games of Ark Nova on BGA yesterday, one against a random opponent and one against a friend. I won both. However, my profile says that although I have played two games, I only have one victory (whereas I won both games) and that, of all things, I have a 75% win rate (which is impossible with only two games played mathematically)! Does a game played against a friend only count as a half-victory for the purposes of win rate, and not at all for the victory counter? Both games were played in the casual play mode, not the Arena mode.

I can't figure out how to paste a screenshot here but this is what it says:

2 games - 1 victory - 75% win rate

I don't have an answer but I can tell that this statistic might be broken.

Look at my stats for Earth

I'm not 100 sure I understand the statistics either. However, I do know that the reason your game against your friend doesn't count is that you played it in friendly mode.

Semester like youve played 5 games of ark if you click in game history, maybe solo or something?

Also 3/4p games give you higher WR than 100%
