Dumb quick thought on choosing what Arena to enter....
« on: January 05, 2007, 09:17:24 PM »
what if yuo choose an arena, and before entering it tells you "xx% of your squad is in LWXXX" or "xx# of your squad is in LWXXX"


basic being, it tells you if you are joining an arena where most of the squad is not in? a simple math thing,,,,, % of squad online, or % of squad members in where.


say X=4 squad members online, all 4 are in LWOrange.

you go to join LWBlue, and it says "100% or 4 members of your squad are in LWOrange"

a quick help tip for members meeting up.


just a thought

If things must stay like they are ( Squad arena tag ) then i think the idea would be nice.

i actually didn't know about the .sr command until later this evening, so that is a good point....

but being a 4 year vet and re-joining the game, not knowing about that command, it may be helpful for my suggestion with others.

If you didnt know the .sr, then you maybe do not know the rest of the new dot commands either:


.f gameID - gives you online status/location of the "offender"
.p gameID - sends a private page to the player (tagged with arena location)

nifty, now to remember them :rofl

though I can see the .p being abused... nothing more fun than ".p Skyrock I OWN YOU" while he is in a dogfight or in the DA (if it pops up a windown that is) :rofl

How is that any different than the old {type name in radio channel} for private messages?

 Yes; I was unaware of new dot commands as well. :o
