Nitpicking Regarding Review "Stars"

SystemSystem Member, NoReporting Posts: 178,019 Arc User
I noticed on reviews of my mission (and others) that the stars (out of five) aren't actually averages. My mission has two ratings: a 5 and a 4. That's an average of 4.5. But in the available missions list it has a rating of 2 stars.

I've seen missions with 3 stars that should be 4 etc. Anyone else notice this? It is a bit misleading to those who will only choose to play high rated missions.

    There's a bug with the ratings right now. Rather than dividing by the number of reviews, it is dividing by 5.

    So if you have a mission with a 5 star and a 4 star review, it'll show as a 1.8 star average, due to (4+5)/5 = 1.8. It should, of course show as a 4.5 average, due to (4+5)/2 = 4.5.

    Ah, that explains it.
