Equal numbers in open teams
Posted: Mon Dec 31, 2007 4:12 pm
I think it is just a matter of fairness and goodwill and teams can be even.
Yesterday it was such a day. 3 teams battle, nice balanced with a lot of fun kills and deaths.
But there are other days where you play 7 vs 15 and nobody wanna change or level it out. I don't talk about new pilots, i have seen such a balance many times and only pilots they play in a squad was present.
"Swallow it" or "Take it" is not the right answer when someone ask for balance in that situation. Experienced pilots should know better and lead with a good example.
Sometimes it looks like that fighting the own squad members in open teams is a problem. I think it is not and many members from my own squad (including my self) did learn the most when they was fighting in open teams against me. It can be fun and believe it you can do some of the best 1on1 in open teams.
I don't point at anyone, it is a generally issue that open teams going unequal. The cause can have many reasons but a pilot with goodwill can solve that easily. Just check ALT T at joining, press L to see what for guys playing and try to make it equal.
I made a valid point and be sure i have every backup to make such changes i mentioned. Specially for the "Way 1" i described.
The game itself has build in a function that should make teams equal and disable the launch for a team if the number for the highest team to the 2nd highest team reaches ~ 70% to 30%.
Unfortunately this doesn't work for some reason, but i guess Ketsujin would back it up if the launch changes and a function working in this way is in place. Maybe Ketsujin itself take a look into it and we are able to use that.
It is possible to force equal teams anyway including the right to do it, because it is in the interests of the game play.
If someone like it or not doesn't really matter. Everyone is able to create a private arena and play there 2 vs 20 without restrictions.
My talking is not out of anger or because it concerns myself in the game, it is a issue that concerns the game play and the fun in the game.
Everyone can imagine that providing or repairing such a feature is work and before someone waste his time and make it possible we should try to do it on our own. We are able to do it on our own and there is no restriction necessary if we all are aware about that and try.
If not, someone will spend his time and restrict the game further. Thats the hole point about.
PS:
The script to boot idle players is now a long time in place and should work for open teams too.
We discuss that internal and check the options we have to reduce the time until the boot is finally performed.
PSS:
I wish you all a Happy New Year and hope that in 2008 we don't have to restrict the game further. Most of us are adults and have a good sense about sportsmanships and fair play.
