New Leaderboard A/B Testing Disrupts Gameplay

[SenseiWarrior]

It seems like Roblox is testing out a new leaderboard design where it’s a modal instead of a UI element in the top right of the screen, and it’s disrupting gameplay in RIVALS.

In RIVALS, I make the leaderboard visible / invisible based on if you’re in a page, in gameplay, etc. However, these functions no longer just make the leaderboard visible / invisible in the corner of your screen anymore, it instead either shows / hides an intrusive popup modal in the center of your screen.

Expected behavior

The leaderboard should be toggled on/off in the corner of the screen

Hi, thanks for reporting this!

To check if this is intended, could you list what device and input (keyboard/touch/gamepad) you are using?

I can confirm this also happens for me in other games. I am on a computer with just a mouse and keyboard - no controllers or anything. Also, pressing Tab does nothing either.

What is the physical display size of the laptop/monitor?

Can I also just add, I really dislike this new leaderboard design. It’s not a great look and honestly just distracts from the main gameplay. Completely stopping all movement could cause extreme issues in games that are first person/shooters.

One of my testers submitted the image to me, he was on a Windows computer using keyboard & mouse

The screen size is 15.6” with a resolution of 1920x1080.

A fix has been rolled out and you should no longer see this Leaderboard on desktop. Please let me know if you’re still facing this issue, thanks!
