Voting time peoples!

[KiLo]

From Knack:

DP is not a Jump Mod - go play Jump Quake ( or whatever it's called)

I thoguht it was just called Quake 2 Jump Mod.


For pubs I think that around 30 seconds is good becuase then you dont have to wait forever to respawn.
But for matches I totally agree that is should be 60 seconds.

I totaly agree knack, about low elim time being good, but only a very small selection of maps are actualy any good in low elim time, and of those few, barley any are commonly played or on servers' map rotations.

I think if I had to pick one elim time for all maps, it would be between 15 and 20, mabey 25 (but I doubt it).

Also, I don't want people to vote for 60 second elim time !!! I hate that, and I know lots of other people who do to. But we haven't had a jump server in a long time since Alonjar's closed, and jump maps are very rare on other servers, so do a jump server apocolypse !!!

15-25 seconds IS low elim time, so you're kind of contradicting yourself with that post.

I think more maps need jails to keep the easily eliminated entertained for a minute.

Soldier as Knack said (it was Knack write not knoc I always getem mixed up oh well) digital paint is not a jump mod I am not against jumps I like to play em everynow and then. I personally think 30 seconds but hey there is no point in having a server up if no one wants to ever go to it trust me it aint fun playing with just bots.

60 sec elim with good multi-path maps (no airtime or excrement like that) with no guntemp.

[loial21]

There should be a voting tool for time elim.

[soldier]

Joe, you have a point, but I still don't totaly agree with that, because 60 is sooooo boring, even if there is a jail.
Jitspoe, in my opinion, 15-25 is not low, its is medium low, low is like 5-10.
Finaly, loial21, a voting tool for elim time would make a server unconstant as far as elim time, which is bad, as I'm sure almost all of us will agree.

[KnacK]

having a player be able to select when he respawns once the elim time is up might make a lot of people happy - especially people that hate spawn campers.

[soldier]

Lol, ya but you can't have people spawning at random times, or it would suckit's spelt KnacK , but it was a good idea, might be good if it was optional to the admin though.

[Apocalypse]

Umm it already is soldier its called op passes. LOL

[nightryder]

the only problem with this is that on maps where the spawns are close to the flag, people will just wait for some one to come grab the flag and then spawn and kill the person grabbing.

 the opposite of killing spawns...

[Zorchenhimer]

it's spelt KnacK

HAHAHA!!

On topic:

having a player be able to select when he responds once the elim time is up might make a lot of people happy - especially people that hate spawn campers.

That would be a neat idea. I like it.

[soldier]

Funny Zorchenhimer, really funny.... -_-

Second Apoc, I meant that if people could vote for elim time like KnacK said, it would have to be controlable by the administrator.

Also, I have a good idea, the administrator should be able to set a pole-like option in their server, where people can vote for the elim time, maps and map rotations, possibly expert mode, though mabey not, and other game related things. The admin could then review the reuslts and make decision based on them if they wanted. Basicaly it would be to get the opinions of the people in the server, but wouldn't affect the game at all, unless the admin made changes.
