I hate the voting system
 
Don't get me wrong the voting system is a great but people will just play around with it or not use at all .I would know because i play a lot of SOF2 and that had a great mp and a voting system but what usually on a server that has the voting system on is:

No one votes off team killers and when they try not enough people vote to kick him
When to guys are having an arguement on a game they will try vote each other off but again no enough people vote and they continue argueing
People always try and vote of campers when camping is part of the game
There is always a couple of people who are not satisfied with playing on a map so they vote to change the map which is fine unless they keep calling votes every 5mins to change the map and when they finally get their map some other idiot starts voting for a differment map


So basically the voting system is going to ruin mp

11-10-2002 06:09 AM

the system is only as good as the people using it. i wish they would just put a god damn time limit on votes like in tribes, 30 seconds or something.

DeadBolt 11-10-2002 06:09 AM

Uh
 
There is a timelimit. I think it is around 30 seconds or so too...

11-10-2002 06:13 AM

shows how long it's been since i ever saw anyone try to vote oOo:

stupid EA stealing my ideas before i come up with them...

DeadBolt 11-10-2002 06:17 AM

Umm are you talking about SH or about old MoH:AA??

11-10-2002 06:20 AM

mohaa. all i've heard was grenade launchers and mg-42s, nothing about changing the voting system except being able to access it from esc. i just figured they left it the same.

DeadBolt 11-10-2002 06:23 AM

Ohhh no its much diff. You select from a list what you want to call a vote about, then say its map, you just select the map, kick player select the player etc... Then the other clients vote yes w/ F1 and no w/ F2. Its a really cool concept, but people are already abusing it. I was ina server earlier, and these guys on each team were at scores of -50. People were trying to kick them but it never passed cuz most the people dont pay attention. Then they try to kick the people who tried it on them. Then they just call votes every minute for the fun of it.. Kinda Dumb

11-10-2002 06:30 AM

let me guess the votes also appear in the chat window along with the join/leave messages along with the death messages along with the chat messages?

DeadBolt 11-10-2002 06:37 AM

yea not only that. but for ex. it says DeadBolt called a vote in the mid left screen, and bottom left there is like 2 big lines of text saying.

Vote for Kick Client "Sgt JoeShmoe" F1 to vote Yes F2 to vote no
Yes: 23% No: 39% Undecided: 38%

To not see it you must be either in a battle with someone, or your just lost in space.

11-10-2002 06:41 AM

they might as well just add voicecoms in, with all that in the chat window nobody will be chatting!

[DDT]ServerAdmin 11-11-2002 11:29 AM

yeah it would be nice with some limit on the voting, like only the maps and kicks, not the servers settings on speed, healthrate and so on.

Bazooka_Joe 11-11-2002 11:35 AM

Isn't voting only limited to 3 votes per player?

PS: I LOVE the new voting system. It's so much damn easier than typing in all of the messages.

11-11-2002 11:47 AM

It's so fucking simpl e and people still find ways to fuck it up!
I saw two people typing "F1" into the chat mad:

I hate the cynical voting system, its like that b*stard team-kill idea in RTCW when you kill by accident and they automatically stab [F1] as fast as their boney fingers can, despite your appology!

"All f*cking voters should f*cking die" as `animal muther` from Full Metal Jacket would surely say :P

sgtSlaughter 11-11-2002 01:34 PM

i was on a server last night there was only like 8 ppl in the game and this guy want ed to vote out some no name solder wahter they called that faild then they started on me that also failed cos i had to leave any how mad: mad: mad: mad: mad:

it's being over abused, so what if some noob has -50 is he not entited to enjoy his game. mad: mad: mad: mad: mad:

there is a lot of guys with no name maby they noobs so why do ppl want to kick em just cos they crap so what mad: mad: mad:

Mr_nStuff 11-11-2002 02:52 PM

irrelevant... Our server will have voting disabled. I personally don't like the fact that morons can flood my server and turn on realism if they want.. Voting will be disabled.

I remember that.. And your absolutely correct.. But let it be known that I was one of the few that only hit F1 on the true TK'ers. Or the morons that should never of tossed a grenade where I was standing.

DeadBolt 11-11-2002 03:59 PM

Hey

Because it sucks for the people who are playing a team-match game and want to get some competeition going, but cant do anything cuz this Lam-0 is bringing the score down significantly. If you wanna sit around and throw nades at yourself do it in an empty server...MoRoNs

sgtSlaughter 11-11-2002 08:40 PM

u were noob once too how would u like to b kicked just cos ur a noob

ninty 11-11-2002 08:44 PM

I love the new voting system as well. I've used it a few times to switch over to realism and the vote has passed a few times.

There was one guy however who kept calling a vote for FF and nobody wanted it. I told him to shut up cause he just wanted to TK everyone. I don't think there was a limit on because he called it quite a few times. But I think the positives outweigh the negatives.

Also a lot easier to kick players. If there is a TKer and no admn just vote to kick and get everyone to vote yes and hes gone. Haven't had to use it for that but I think it should work fine unless your on a TKing server. oOo:

Vote;

It's your duty.



Oh and uh, on the voting issue; I like it, some people say 'too many votes are called' but does it really matter? Just don't vote. It's not like anything that's not important passes anyway.

And I hate admins who turn off voting; if people want realism on or off why not let them change it. The server is for the people. Isn't it?

Quasi-evil 11-12-2002 01:02 PM

I like the voting, I would like to see Admin that don't want voting just turn it off while they are on. When they plan to leave for the night turn it back on. If for no other reason then be able to turn ff off or kick somone that is TK-ing. At time sit would be nice to change to a different map I guess. 1 thing I would like to see is once something is voted on in that round that it could not be brought back up again till the next round.

As for all the voting your seeing on the servers I think its just people testing out the voting system. I know I did when I first got in there. It was like verything else I wanted to see what the new stuff did. Don't think it would be as big of a deal after people are more use to the game.
