parse for ps4 users !

[XiXiQ]

they are technically there to be seen by anyone

by anyone with a PC. The information is impossible for any console user to see. You can run no real-time software to parse it, and you cannot access the log files beyond the few hundred lines it shows in history. (if someone knows a way to access this, I'd be interested to know how they do it)

I have nothing against parsers, I use a console so I'd like to see one included. I have no doubt a bunch of PC users I wouldn't know from a bar of soap have seen my numbers many times (and I don't care), yet I am clueless and will remain so until they add this functionality for PS4. If assauging the fears (be they realistic or not) of users who would prefer this didn't happen will get me this functionality and keep them happy, that's fine with me.

Doesn't have to be the log files, the consoles have the battle chat box do they not? As long as you can scroll through that battle report its essentially the same thing as a parser or looking at log files, only far too much of a hassle and to go through in any meaningful way at the time the data is relevant.

If all i saw was:

<insert name here> used Bootshine 400 damage
<insert name here> used Bootshine 400 damage
<insert name here> used Bootshine 400 damage

What difference does it make that i can see your average damage at a glance on my parser? I could clearly see you are under performing via sight and having the battle log open, it's just having a parser is far more convenient to what is already there.
