I noticed that we don’t have this native option, correct?
Therefore, how can I show players from a specific country, and/or global, in the ranking, without filtering countries? Mybe using Tiers? IDK

There is no way to get country. But there is one method I know however, it’s quite expensive. Here are the steps

Service that we need: Leaderboard, Cloud Code, Cloud Save

  • In client side, when player sign in for first time, prompt Select your country
  • In client side, save player country info to Cloud Save
  • Make Cloud Code with parameter LeaderboardID
  • In Cloud Code, write code to get all user of LeaderboardID, the return user will have PlayerID. Check their API Doc
  • In Cloud Code, create class PlayerData to hold data PlayerID and Country
  • In Cloud Code, create array to hold PlayerData
  • In Cloud Code, foreach PlayerIDs to get Country variable from Cloud Save, if you found it, then create new PlayerData and assignee PlayerID and Country then push to array we created.
  • In Cloud Code, serialize the array of PlayerData to JSON then return it
  • In client side, make a C# class that contain prop PlayerID and Country
  • In client side, try call the cloud code method with param LeaderboardID that we created where it will return JSON, then deserialize by JsonConvert.DeserializeObject
  • Foreach the return value and filter which country that you want
  • Finish

To improve performance, need to cache after we get the leaderboard value, so it will blazing fast.
