        I think there was an option somewhere to remain hidden to other platforms...

            I dont understand the reasoning behind being competitive and yet hiding your name. Seems weird to me.

                Steam account hidden from public is what I thought it was. I'm not sure if most these people realise their not visible in game.

                  Hello,

                  'hidden' profiles are players who chose to disable cross-platform visibility.

                    If they hide their profile or not is their decision. BUT why they are then displayed in the highscores? Sorry guys, but that is nonsense. Anyone who hide their display or disable cross-platform visibility have no right to be in any highscore on another platform.

                    It is not only annoying but also strange to play versus "hidden" players, I mean those players could also be bots or something like that... We just dont know.

                    My suggestion: No cross-plattform visibility means no entry in any highscores other than the own platform.

                      Another perspective

                      'Hidden' doesn't bother me on the high score tables.

                      Consistently numbered 'HiddenX01550001', 'HiddenX01550002', etc might be nicer, in case there's a specific player who turns out to be your high score table nemesis.

                        I hate to break it to you guys, but I am Hidden. I created about 50 accounts all with the same name, just to bother you. Mwah-ha-ha-ha!

                          There are no bots on the leaderboards, and we wanted to give a 'real' standing to everyone so you don't get fooled into thinking you are first for example, when maybe there are like 10 before you.

                            That is not a bad idea actually, but wouldn't it seem like a bug to some players? It could seem very srcipt-ey maybe

                              As long as your going to give them the ability to be "? Hidden" by not displaying their unique player profile why not just give them the ability to create a new player profile?
