There wasn't a specific topic for arena yet, so i thought i'd make on since there are still issues. Dead Spectating - when you die you are able to spectate every player on the server (who is still alive ofcorse). This means if you are on blu and you die, you can spec people on the red team and tell your team where they are. Team Scramble - i don't think the teams scramble works on arena at the moment. It can go a whole map without changing teams which means if one team is better than the other, nothing happens about it. Thats all i have at the moment, hope they are not too hard to fix.
I've seen that on other servers and it never caused problems there. I'd say it a good thing, since you're not as bored if your team is searching for a campy c&d spy when you're dead.
yeah, but you always have the cap point. What if a few people are all firneds and play on the same team. If they use mumble/vent or whatever once one has died they can just tell their friends where (and what classes) the other team is. That paired with the fact that scramble is not working at the moment and it'd not a good combo
This topic can also be used for feedback on class limits. sly topic bump back to the purpose of the topic : Admin chat commands do not work eg. /vote "do you like votes" just comes up in chat as me saying it. //Edit : Class restrictions should be in the format of and state if you want the restricted or not, if yes, what to. eg. Scout : Yes, 2 Soldier : No Pyro : No Demoman : Yes, 4 Heavy : Yes, 0 Engineer: Yes, 1 Medic : No Sniper : Yes 2 Spy: No that is an example, and does not represent my views btw.
Use sm_vote for that, don't forget the double quotation marks for multi-word arguments. Code: sm_vote <question> <option1> <option2> <option3>
yeah i made that server in a rush, it needs tweaking.. still have a lot to do.. But its on the list. thats for sure, all other tc/staff can see it too. I think the classlimit is prio 1.. hlstats perhaps 2..
Scout - 2 Soldier - 2 Pyro - 1 Demoman - 2 Heavy - 1 Engi - Preferably banned Medic - 1 Sniper - 1 Spy - 2
I know how votes work but normally you get 2 chat commands !vote (players can see), and /vote (players can't see) at the moment, those chat commands do not work.
No way the class restrict needs to be this tight on the arena server. Banning a class is a whole should not be done either. All classes max 3. I don't go saying spies should be banned because they make me mad. If an engineer is camping, cap. If he built his stuff near the cap, let him cap or die trying to kill him. If you gave an engineer the chances to do that then you have lost the match.
just spoke to alex about that. and these are the class restrictions given by .|G:.Silence 0f K1LlinG : Scout : Soldier : Pyro : Demoman : Heavy : 0 Engineer: 0 Medic : 1 Sniper : 5 Spy:
These are all retarded restrictions, but that one is at a whole new level. 5 snippers but no heavies?
Well, these are just some ideas, but still, let's be honest, in how many arena maps Sniper is a good choise? 2? 3?
In the end it doesn't matter. If we can get enough feedback we can pull sensible restrictions from what people have suggested.
On nucleus they can take out half a team when they come out of spawn. You're not supposed to restrict the class you don't like or those you can't win against, only those who can completely mess up the game for both teams (snipers and spies on AM for example)
I think you have missunderstood me, I never said that I don't like Snipers/Spies/Engies/Heavies, but that some of them ruin the whole meaning of Arena (And the fun) when they're more than 1 - 2
Oh, so a team of 3 Heavies, 4 Medics and 2 Engies against a normal team doesn't ruin the fun? Also, stop countering everything I say, I can have and an opinion of my own.
