Additions to be considered

Sun Jan 16, 2005 5:27 pm

Good afternoon all,
There's been a few things that have gone off and on in the history of the server, and that are now currently disabled, and I understand why they are disabled now, for the most part, but I'd like to have some serious consideration placed in seeing if we can bring some of them back. Alright, here's what I'm thinking about;
1) Soldiers being allowed to disguise themselves as enemies (yes, I know, it could be a problem Tk-wise, but we can find some way of bringing it back without much worrying about TK, it's one of the biggest incentives for being a soldier!)
2) Property Damage stats for each round... don't know quite why this one was disabled.
3) Stat sheets for each player... I understand why this may have been disabled in the server so that spamming stops, and I realize I can look up my stats for each round, but I want to be able to look at my overall stats like I used to here on the web site, that was good, I know a lot of other players would enjoy this too.

That should be all for now... I really would like to see some of these brought back... your thoughts?

As much as I liked the stats, people would be so worried about their stats that they wouldn't be taking risks in the game that make it more action packed and fun. People camped and sniped more just to have a good kill ratio. If stats do come back, couldn't the !stats command just be disabled to prevent spamming?

That's what I'm saying... so that you wouldn't really be able to show it off in the game, actually I personally like it in the game, but I realize there's way too many ppl who would spam and play completely differently with it up.

I agree. I'm sure the spamming could be disabled but the gameplay is what counts.

Well some ppl begin to worry too much about their Kill Ratio and try to start killing only and stray from real combat so they don't die :ar15:

...The Sad Truth...Wish People Wouldnt Do That...But There Will Always Be People Like That...It Would Be Cool If M-A-A Could Set Something Up Where Only Level 1's And Up Got There Stats Recorded :)

Yeah that would be awesome.

btw Lunatic, why did you capitalize every word? haha :D

Yeah I was thinking that... there just arn't enough advantages for the lvl 1s, that'd be nice of everyone lvl 1 and up got their own sheet on the site, and hell, it would be nice to even be able to look at it while playing, but that might be only for level 1s or level 2s and up too, and we'd have to be super stubborn about ppl spamming with it.
Also, what do you guys think about the soldier disguising feature (most ppl hate it) and the property damage...
also this is my 100th post! haha :D

Wow you never seem to get tired of these questions do you. Do I have to go find all the other threads where the same questions were asked (there are lots).

I think the answer's no already :)

LOL Parrot.

I like the spy feature. It makes you stay aware of your teamates. Also the property damage was pretty fun but then you had axis players race to the war room at the start of the match to go blow everything up.

Yeah I'm a pest arn't I? :P I think for some of these we can have changes made though, I honestly don't see why the stats are put up on the site for at least lvl 1s and up, even if not on the game.. and the property damage thing I havn't figured out yet... the disguising thing of course is controversial and would be an easy no, but I'm sure there's some way to have it and do without problems.
