Volcom Posted September 5, 2015 Share Posted September 5, 2015 Hey Everyone, We have had a lot of topics brought up about changes people would like to see. We have decided to hold a public meeting on: Saturday, September 12 at 5:00 pm. For this topic I just want you guys to post what you would like to see change. I don't want you to post why. That can be your homework . Mark down some notes for the meeting with points on why you think the change should be made. This allows for us to talk in real time to decide whether or not it is something that is feasible. Also if someone has already made your suggestion please don't feel you need to repeat it. If they posted something similar, quote their original post and note how your idea differs. I will be running the meeting as the moderator. I don't want it to be a shouting match or anything like that. All are invited to attend, but please post your ideas for changes and if you have no ideas but want to attend please post here and say the latter. TLDR: Post the things you want to change. Do not post why you think they should change. Save that for the meeting. If you don't want any changes and are attending please post saying so. Hope this will help out. Also wanted to make you guys aware it is something we are working on. We didn't just read your posts and dismiss them. Thanks guys! -Rob 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goztow Posted September 5, 2015 Share Posted September 5, 2015 Making a resumee. This is not in a particular order, all are important to me. * rotation: instead of having more or less one base defense map, one rush map; change to 2 or 3 rush maps, one base defense map, as rush maps are over much faster. Even if this means that there will be rush maps that are more than once in the rotation * Remove under_rxd out of the rotation, or remove under: 1 time under is more than enough * !disablesounds should disable all added sounds, including the "headshot", "double kill", "triple kill", mods joining,!mad sounds (especially those). If you want, you can add a !disableallsounds if you want players to have a choice * the server should remember that I did !disablesounds even fater I left. If this isn't possible, then hard code it for me and iamwiener . * the #rank that's shown as a tag should be the monthly rank and not the all time rank, so players actually have a chance to go for top 20 * it would be nice to be able to identify the more important chat messages (mostly limited to the player's chat messages, player kills (not vehicle kills) and radio commands). Maybe you could change "new" chat message's color (vehicle kills, promotions, double kill, ...) into light grey so the more important messages stand out more? * reduce health and shield of units bought through !weapons and !tank command by 25 % * auto disable base defenses after 75 mins (time can be debated) of playing. An auto poll at 70 mins of playing asks players to vote if they do NOT want the power to base defenses to go down. It stays marathon, just without the defenses after a while * add a game mode in the rotation: classic AOW. This game mode could appear every xx maps and have: - have a 30 or 40 min time limit - no commands to buy weapons or tanks (using the command would give a "sorry, this command is not available on this map in this game mode") - no shotgun as secundary weapon - no shells - only standard crates - no weapon drops or a "light version" of weapon drops (to be determined) I think veterancy and donating could stay in classic mode, as well as starting credits. I would remove it all but to be fair, I think a lot of players would not like this. I wouldn't like to scare players away due to this game mode. Map suggestions: * Meadow: one of very few base defense fanmaps actually done right. More info here, but I cannot find the .mix :( http://www.renegadeforums.com/index.php?t=msg&th=13800&prevloaded=1&&start=0 * BunkersTS: a classic ACK fanmap * Night0x: I find it quite balanced. Its not too big, inf and tanks and flying and looks good Would it be technically possible to lower the amount of time one has to look on the end screen? What timezone is your 5 PM? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
n00b31 Posted September 5, 2015 Share Posted September 5, 2015 Remove unlimited ammo and add a !cammo command to call ammo. Price: 1000-2000 Credits. The price for !weapon and !tank should be higher. YKZ 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StJohn Gumby Posted September 5, 2015 Share Posted September 5, 2015 This topic will just be a split between those that want the current Marathon server with all the mods, sounds, skins, veteran system, !buy system etc,in the style of the old St0rm, and those that want 30min AOW without any (or many) mods in the style of TK2. As I'm firmly in the latter camp with Gozy (and as it will never happen like this anyway). 30min time limit !minelimit 30 !vlimit 12 no annoying sounds no advantage skins allowed (clearscope, spongebob C4, etc) ped on Gumby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pyr0man1c Posted September 5, 2015 Share Posted September 5, 2015 So that's 10pm UK time. Who's in charge with compiling a list of all of these changes? It'd need to be partitioned into almost-disjoint sets for a smooth transition between topics. We should also have a scribe for the meeting who would know what to write down during the discussions. Any volunteers for these roles? I'll attend if I'm free, but I'll submit ideas here once everyone else has. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikey Posted September 5, 2015 Share Posted September 5, 2015 (edited) Add the !bounty command (I know it was being worked on, but haven't heard anything for a while so just a reminder if anyone had forgotten) Allow !disablesounds to also mute the !mad sounds too. Remove Mesa/Sand - Also under rxd but keep original under. Everything else is pretty much fine as it is, If I think of anything else I can suggest ill post it here.

Feda Posted September 5, 2015 Share Posted September 5, 2015 Guess you know that my first suggestion is to add BunkersTS and then to hug all those who already mentioned this map. After this, I kinda agree with the 25% less hp or armor of command-bought vehs, but don't make them too weak either. Remove either under or under_rxd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remove proxy, rave/pic, and volt guns from the !buy list 4. Remove !sreps from Chem warriors and acolyte (if there is one in a crate) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mdogg1108 Posted September 5, 2015 Share Posted September 5, 2015 Remove Sand permanently, complete waste of fucking time that kills your player count. Remove pimp weapons. Let SBHs pick up guns and remotes. Put a time limit on Under and field, they take way too long, even if it's just a 2-3hour limit. REMOVE BUYING GUNS AND VEHICLES COMPLETEY RUINS THE GAME I'll try to add more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shaitan Posted September 5, 2015 Share Posted September 5, 2015 Start inviting ingame players to this too, can someone make a brenbot announcement for this topic and the TS meeting? Add in an easy to jot down adf.ly link(minus the spam/$ links, you can disable those)like I've been doing lately to these topics. Without that set of input we'll get nowhere.

dubstar Posted September 5, 2015 Share Posted September 5, 2015 add shotgun to !drop list (except for shotgunner lol) allow GDI to buy laser chain gun and Nod to buy strong rocket launcher !disablesounds does not block !mad sounds from playing. please fix this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ehh Posted September 5, 2015 Share Posted September 5, 2015 k serious time - remove engi shotguns - remove the option to buy any weapon (if anything you can do !weapon every 5 minutes which gives you a random weapon, atomix style) - i dont like the !tank command either, if anything i wont mind the atomix way again, the highest vet rank can do it every 5 minutes to get a random tank. - suddendeath is silly if ur a mara server imo - do we even have tomb 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crushu06 Posted September 5, 2015 Share Posted September 5, 2015 Allow tunnel beacons on field Give snipers a purpose and promotes teamwork. Miss the days of like 6 beacons going off in tunnels and then 15 hotwires in the ref trying to save it. Pretty epic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
warlord83 Posted September 5, 2015 Share Posted September 5, 2015 Crap I can't make it at that time. But I agree with removing death crate and unlimited inf ammo. Sorry couldn't quote stupid cell phone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
