We need map voting!
« on: July 01, 2011, 06:36:03 PM »
If a map is up that nobody likes such as the current one I'd like to have the option to vote for a new one.

I can see where that would go.  Mass base taking squads all panic vote to get the easiest to conquer map up.

Nope, I don't think we NEED map voting.  I think you'd like map voting :)

Players already have a vote... kinda. See any side getting closer to reset than the other? Well, hop over and help them! :)

I recall a number of years ago when my (then) squaddie, NB (NoBaddy) spent about 6 months, part time on his part, designing, creating and de-bugging Trinity.

Belial, since you're obviously disenchanted with some of the maps we have in the current rotation, perhaps you'd be willing to give it a go.

Not a bad wish IMO.  The peoples voice should be heard...
If the map sucks azz, then it should be looked into.

hey!! you feeling ok? it's not like you to be so pessimistic.

 you know as well as i do, that base taking squads would never do such a thing. they are good they can take any base on any map. why would they need to vote in an "easy" map?  :noid

My intention was to have a way of circumventing maps people don't prefer...say when the war is won people get a choice of all available maps to choose as the next one.

If that didn't come out clear it was the booz...

When a new map is getting ready to pop give the people a multiple choice box...

There are a few maps maps I thoroughly dislike and I know I'm not the only one. Yet I do not want to see such an option at all. I do not want to see maps skipped just because they appeal "only" to 40% of the population. HTC might lose more than it will gain from such a vote.
And rotation is big enough to endure every map every once in a while, and since the new 20% rule it's also quick enough. It's not that we have one map up for a whole month anymore.

nobody

Where exactly did you come up with this result? You don't like it, some vocal people don't like it, but those who are fine are quiet about it so you assume "nobody" likes the map?  You "vote" for a changed map and those who like it are left out of a map they like?  There is a rotation for a reason.

If you can get enough people together to "vote" away a map, you can get them together and change the map.

like it was explained in another thread.  it could be very easy for two countries to vote to change when the 3rd is about to win the war.  or perhaps late at night when there's not that many players maps could change every 20 minutes.

Hell if I was to see some b29's hitting the strats then I would call for a map change right away :devil.
