omega79 Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 there will be no custom maps untill gold release they told us ... so there might be 1 more map but i guess not maps and i agree ... map voting needs to be modified ... so that if you played one map you can not vote this map to be the next map ... or better, you can not vote the map for the next 2 votes ... and maybe make it that a vote only counts if at least 35% voted for a certain map Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sebqt Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 Should be just a rotation Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
omega79 Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 I think map voting is okay and pretty normal these days ... just need defined rules ... but disable the vote should be a serverside option (if it is not already) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iran Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 The map voting system is fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R315r4z0r Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 It should give a pick of 2 or 3 maps at random that people can vote. And never the one you just played on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoundShades Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 I always thought voting should be more complex yet wholesome. I wouldn't advocate the extra work if not it worth it. It should allow voting of all maps, including the last one played but only re-votable once, and then it is not votable again for 2 more maps. Or, make it require a 2/3rd vote to replay the last played map and 1/2 vote to replay the one before that, that way if less than half vote even if it was most voted or if people didn't vote at all, it won't choose it. Something needs to be done in my opinion, to make it somehow, where the last 3 maps played can't be so easily replayed. Still possible, just not so easy, like a weighted vote or removing them from vote for 3 rotations. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R315r4z0r Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 I had another suggestion once regarding voting. -A map needs to have at least 3 votes for it to be considered. If all maps only have 2 votes, the next map would be selected randomly or by rotation. -Maps that were recently played would be given negative votes by default. So the map that was just played would start with -2 votes. The last map would start with -1 votes and everything else would start with 0 votes. That way, 5 people would need to vote for the map they just played just for it to be considered... and that's not even taking the other votes into consideration.

Xpert Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 The map voting shit is retarded. I'm sick of people voting for Walls_Flying every time. I want to be able to have the option server side to disable it and just use a rotation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoundShades Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 Server owners can't set it by default or force-select next map? I thought I seen it happen before via someone on IRC? Anyway, I like Razor's suggestion about recent maps getting negative votes, although I would say -4 for last map and -2 for one before that. It really should be an overwhelming majority to get it done. I however don't see the problem with good maps being chosen. Did anyone have a problem with 1-2 years straight of 2fort? I played 2fort and dustbowl for the better part of a year without complaint, I even played it on vanilla xbox teamfort2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xpert Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 Server owners can't set it by default or force-select next map? I thought I seen it happen before via someone on IRC? In beta 1, the command FORCEEND worked. I tried it in beta 2 and it doesn't work. For me at least. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
omega79 Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 I still think that 3 votes should only be enough if it represents at least 35% of the server ... if no map got at least 35%, the server cycle to the next map in rotation. if 2 maps got the same % on the vote, and are over 35%, it will decide random for 1 of the 2. and, ofcourse, the recently finished map can not be voted for an other 2 votes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sick of people voting for Walls_Flying every time. I want to be able to have the option server side to disable it and just use a rotation.Seriously. Just let the server owners have the option so they can do whatever they want with it. Would help people sort which server they want to be a part of.

SFJake Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 Would help people sort which server they want to be a part of. The one thats alive? I still have to deal with NoAmmo being popular when its a marathon with no crates. When do players -actually- choose here? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terekhov Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 I played on TheMatrixRen yesterday because it's 1) AOW and 2) Has a 40-mine limit (someone's thinking), and quite enjoyed myself (it was also ~36 players the whole time). Generally there's 3 full servers going at a time during prime hours, and that's just in beta right now, while a large number of players are not playing and waiting for all the fixes before they try again.

SFJake Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 Your prime hours. I get to play mostly in 7 hours from this post. Check it out then. I generally have only 1 potential server, 2 is being very lucky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terekhov Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 It's not 'my' or 'your' prime hours; by prime hours I mean when most of the RenX population is on (which I assume would be US-East and EU timezones) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
