Official Feature Vote of 2007

[jitspoe]

is it that hard to check the player count bars at the bottom? i mean, i'm just saying ... that feature is already there in a slightly different form.

It is for those people who use cl_hudscale 1 at high resolutions so everything is microscopic.

[Spook]

I use cl_hudscale 1 while using 1680x1050 and it is still very easy to see.

[lekky]

wow spook, i understand your high fov now. At that resolution I have to use fov 140 to replicate what it looks like on my resolution at fov 112

[Spook]

Off topic but yeah, when i ran 1050x768 i used fov 130

[QueeNiE]

+1 for tie map generator.

^Everybody vote for it.  I know you want to.^

[webhead]

i would add a negative to this one. i think they're perfect as-is.

i dunno why, but now my game auto-records when i either (1) start a new game locally, or (2) join a server that's passworded. why is that? i have several auto-generated dm2 files building up in my demos folder.

[Apocalypse]

I knew that ingame mic was already there but I couldn't find it so I just stuck it in there also it would make it much easier if you (everyone) voted with as close to what it says in the current list so say I wanted to vote for having leaders, co-leaders, members, and in-training members I should put in this Have Leaders, Co-Leaders, members and in-training members in the GLS clan section or part of that so that I can just ctrl f and find it on the list and add it.
Thanks,
Apocalypse

is it that hard to check the player count bars at the bottom? i mean, i'm just saying ... that feature is already there in a slightly different form.

obviously it is if i had the thought to post it. problem? didn't know this was a thread about shutting out good ideas. if seen plenty of people complain about not being able to see this and that, not knowing they were the last ones alive, i just thought this could help out the matching scene some. it's really useful while playing warsow why wouldn't it be here?

[webhead]

obviously it is if i had the thought to post it. problem? didn't know this was a thread about shutting out good ideas.

easy, easy, no need to get so defensive. you put a thought out there, and so did i. i'm not "shutting out" any ideas, i'd have to be an admin/mod to do that.

so would you say that you might like to replace the existing bars with numbers? or at least have a momentary message pop up in the middle of the screen that says something like "You're the last person on your team!"? cuz i can see that being helpful, now that i revisit the idea.

+1 for a text alert like this in the middle of the screen.

[Apocalypse]

Yeah I always find it hard to look at it out of the corner of my eye while playing especially in the midst of a race to  their flag (when there flag has to be at there base to cap) when I'm rushing and watching for campers or in the middle of fighting someone( for lack of a better term). Add me to this also

how about an indicator to let you know when you are the last one of your team alive. something like 1v4, 1v3, 1v2, 1v1. kinda like warsow. maybe have this feature only for match servers? maybe have it popup in the middle of the screen or in a corner somewhere.

[jitspoe]

i dunno why, but now my game auto-records when i either (1) start a new game locally, or (2) join a server that's passworded. why is that? i have several auto-generated dm2 files building up in my demos folder.

The autorecord feature is set by default to automatically record when a password is set.  It's a server-side setting.

[webhead]

thanks, jits. (like my new avatar?)

[coLa]

so would you say that you might like to replace the existing bars with numbers? or at least have a momentary message pop up in the middle of the screen that says something like "You're the last person on your team!"? cuz i can see that being helpful, now that i revisit the idea.

im not asking for some obnoxious text to flash in the middle of your screen. i am saying something like 3v1, 2v1, 1v1(depending on the size of the match) to show up somewhere around the crosshair in some extremely visible color.

[KiLo]

So you mean something like what happens in Warsow?

[webhead]

... it's really useful while playing warsow ...

yes, that's the idea.

im not asking for some obnoxious text to flash in the middle of your screen. i am saying something like 3v1, 2v1, 1v1(depending on the size of the match) to show up somewhere around the crosshair in some extremely visible color.

like something that would always be visible, or that would just appear momentarily when the numbers change?

[KiLo]

Doh. Not paying attention.
