Automatic connection diagnosis ratings, need your help

Hi guys,

 

So one of the features in the new version is it will automatically diagnose your connection from a ping point of view. We may do bandwidth later but right now everyone cares about ping. Anyway for each metric we have 5 categories. Can you help us choose the words for the category. The 5 categories are essentially:

  1. Amazing
  2. Good
  3. Ok
  4. Bad
  5. Terrible

But we could have synonyms if you liked e.g.:

  1. Beast Mode / Too legit to quit
  2. Solid / Naaaice
  3. Standard / Normal
  4. Bad / Lousy
  5. Lag central / oh dear

Look forward to your responses :)

Ok this is why I love feedback, crystal clear guys. I guess the humour of 90s game difficulty selection doesn't apply to routers :P

The first set looks great.

 

However, I would recommend two changes in the first set if you are looking to change.

 

1) Amazing ---> Exceptional

5) Terrible ---> Inferior

 

But whatever you use, we will follow!

i like none as they are just words, they would be more appropriate if a ping number is behind the word

like

 

Amazing (<50ms)

Good (<75ms)

Ok (<100ms)

Bad (<125ms)

Terrible (>125ms)

 

its the same reason for why people hate console ping indications like in CoD with its bars, they pretty much dont give you any valuable feedback at all

therefore i think its wrong to just give a word indication

Its too keep it simple, you still have a details button that just shows you the trace/ping values. 

then maybe let us choose our own boundaries for each word, i mean just reading "Amazing" could as well mean <100ms while my interpretation of that word would be <50ms
