Definately would like to see this added.  It helps people see howe the teams stack up to discourage there from being a "pro" team and a "noob" team.

I´d not be really happy to see this ... it´d be like in Worldshift. When your opponent see that u are a high ranked Player they just quit, because they don´t want to lose.

It´d be better when the game puts connecting players in the right team to keep good balancing and don´t show the ranks of other players in the lobby.

I don't like it either. Public games tend to attract alot of idiots. We'll get leavers at the first sight of with higher or lower points then them. Note: All players with a higher scores are nerds without RL and all players with lower scores are nubz which need l2p.

Also it adds the possibilty of "Score"-Flames like the arsenal/arena-flames in WoW. Imo, public games shouldn't bother about scores. They should be played just for fun.

I'd like to see this added. Would certainly be easier to balance teams. Also, I like to see if there's a reasonable chance to win at the start of the match, rather than going in with a stacked team on one side and brand new players on the other.

Also, any auto-match system needs to be pretty good. CoD4 seems to think balancing consists of sticking the five-topped ranked players on one team, and the six lower ranked players on the other.

You def can not have auto matching!!!  Will the server know who your m8's are?  I don't think so.  We need to see everyones records at all times.  That way the host can kick noobs from the game.

If you have a team of experienced players against less experienced players the game isn't much fun. If you know the rating you can switch members to make a more balanced team. Otherwise people will leave anyway or start complaining during the game about team member X who sucks just like the other team member Y etc,,, Now you know what to expect

I would prefer they quit before the game than at first blood.  The flip side right now is a 3 v 3 where you'll have 5 people screaming at you to toggle ready when your team has a combined 5 games played and the other team are all veterans.  I'm checking your stats anyway, it just has to be in windowed mode through the Pantheon website.  Remove a step.   

I will eat my hat if you don't see basic w/l/dc stats for every player in a game lobby at release, whatever we say on this thread.
