POLL system?

[NLsRene]

 

what is up with the poll?? on the picture it looks okay, but if u aim to the right with free aim it blocks ur aim..?? how can i remove this. otherwise first 30 seconds aren't playable at all.

À simple solution would be to make the poll last a bit less long to limit the inconvenience.

da_Essentials.ini

; PollDuration
;
;  Duration of the polls in seconds.

PollDuration=60.0

Not possible since player ids are replaced with latest avaiable numbers.

tbh any good developer would say 'anything is possible'

lets see what happens when i say "ill donate $1000 to make the poll system go away after I have voted"

to be fair, in n00bstories back then i believe or jelly dunno exactly. when a vote was made, it would just give the message after trying to revote "you already voted for yes/no, and aren't able to vote again". that actually worked. now it gives a huge square which is in the way and u can vote 50 times either yes or no rather than just 1 time. 

they should really ask the old developers from those servers how they did it, simply because it WORKED. who cares about seeiing the votes anyways? and with 50 people where 70 % needs to vote to make it count, this whole system doesn't make sense. yesterday with 50 people there were maybe 10 people who voted. it does not work like that. 

 

also since yesterday, some admins/mods are abusing the system. Field without ob/agt came up with time and after 5 min there was this poll pop-up about ENDING the game immidiatly, soon after even a POLL pop-up about not beiing able to repair buildings. it was a freaking timed map!!!! 

 

i really want some Higher ups to look into this, its abusive and far from enjoyable.

PS: forced polls HAVE TO BE REMOVED. 

 

look all i am trying to say is, Rencorner is somehow now based around the POLL. well remove the vote system. if i play renegade i want to play normal maps (the most), but since there are newer maps too, i don't mind playing them either. but let me play it, just add a maybe 2 hour time on maps like under and field. because those maps just could take 15 hours if needed. all those other maps are playable with marathon like futures. 

 

if 10 people out of 50 vote, it just tells you, people mostly don't care about that map at that moment. which is most of the time the case. 

 

WHY does it need to have a vote. especially the forced votings. if you want me to leave the server, keep on doing that. 

[Goztow]

We finally have a vote system that works and you people are raging because it shows a window for 30 seconds? I do not get it. 

Sure enough it may need some fine tuning as to which votes can be triggered when. People should not be able to start a vote to end the game 5 mins in.

On what screen resolution do you guys play? Maybe the window is different on different resolutions?

look the 30 second thing now, is okay to me. i don't care already said i don't care about it. i can go take a pee in that time and come back and its gone. BUT now they are also forcing votes and stuff? thats abusive man, i play on resolution of 2560 - 1440.

 

i don't need to see that stuff in any server (forcing votes)  ESPECIALLY NOT when there is a TIMER on that map. PLAY THE MAP, or leave . thats the other way to look at it.

I agree with NLs on city flying I was in a APC rushing the PP and disarming mines at the door when that forced vote popped up and couldn’t do anything for like 30 seconds or a min…. And it just totally ruined the rush and plans… I don’t like the forced vote at all where it stops the gameplay… 

this shit needs removed or give forced votes to higher up such as full mods 

[Goztow]

I wasn't aware that the forced vote was activated.

I was surprised at the poll window. I like it and never had a complaint.

But, I dont use V to aim. Might try it though since I dont have a deadeye accuracy like some hardcore gamers (headshot guy). Dude can snipe.

Forced polls can be initialised by moderators and since on that City_Flying after hour of nothing just camp game GDI players wanted no repair on buildings so I started it and it passed. Game is paused during voting so nothing was lost. Just again Uks/NLs clan have issues with it.
