Marathon Server Changes

[GoTWhisKeY]

I doubt I can make the meeting because I'll be visiting family, but I'll make an attempt.

 

I like the game as pure as possible, but here's some that stick out for me:

 

- Bring back the regular skinned maps

- No shotguns on engies

- Don't make special rules for certain maps (no SBH on Sand?)

- I heard you can buy the tech repair gun, even without a bar.  Get rid of that

- I'd prefer to see the !tank option go away but maybe it's a public server fan favourite.  Might as well have the Obelisk still shoot when the power goes out.  

- I'd vote to have BunkersTS in the rotation, and why not throw Glacier_Flying in there every 20 maps or so?  seriously

- I would say 'add a 30 minute time limit to every map' but I know that just doesn't work on public servers anymore unfortunately.  That's what funwars are for

I won't be able to make it since I don't have TS but please consider these:

 

[Maps]

»Remove C&C_Field_RxD.mix _{(PT is glitched anyways)}

»Remove C&C_Under.mix

»Remove C&C_Canyon_RxD.mix _{(Railroad and PTs are bugged too)}

»Add C&C_BunkersTS.mix

»Add C&C_Oasis_Flying.mix with no fake crates

 

[server]

»Poll system must change make it to 1/4 instead 1/3

»Reduce mine limit count to 40 in those maps who have 50 _{(50 is ridiculously high: means you can have 7 mines per door)}

»Add a 01:00:00 hr timer automatically after 3 hours of map _{(Limits all maps to 4 hours)}

»Remove timer from C&C_Sand.mix

»Pedestal on

 

[infantry]

»No shotguns for Engineers and Hotwires/Technicians

»Remove the '#rank' tag _{(It's visual spam having the nick & the MVP* msg & personal tag msg AND the rank)}

»Lower veteran HP

»Infantry should be able to pick up their own backpacks after dying

 

[Vehicles]

»Tank shells for only Light Tanks & Medium Tanks

»!tank should cost 2500, 5000 when no PP _{(or I agree with the highest vet only-buyer too)}

 

[Rules]

»No going AFK with Artilleries or MLRS camping tunnel _{(IMO only 10 mins should be allowed of tunnel camping on Field and Under)}

»No invisi-hugging _{(for real)}

»No glitching c4 of any kind _{(Invisible timers or mines, hidden in the walls or MCTs)}

 

[sounds]

»Add the Can't Touch This sound _{(lol, I will love you forever)}

[pyr0man1c]

In 3 and half hours? Here's a list of the things mentioned in this thread:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1jNdxZldLFawQcDiF62LuKw2rFoqB3bXV5Lk_ENtHcIU/edit?usp=sharing

I think I may have missed out about 3 suggestions.
If anyone wants to be able to edit/touch this up, send me a message.

[Whitedragon]

Shotgun Wars: all weapons (even vehicles') are replaced by shotguns.

[shaitan]

Get your asses to the meeting(you too Volcom, was your idea).

[Manuel857]

Apologizes for not contributing for the most part of the meeting as I was having company at the same time.

 

Thanks pyr0 for the pm.

[Whitedragon]

Here are the agreed upon changes from the meeting:

 

• Modify the rotation (have 2 rush maps per base defense map or so)

• Show temprank where rank is currently displayed under a player’s name

• Remove the “killed their own tank” message

• Add the butterfingers and thief crate

• Update TS so people automatically join the channel that corresponds to their ingame team

• Add BunkersTS and Walls to the rotation

• Reduce time looking at the scoreboard if possible

• Remove powerdown after one of the base defenses dies

 

These have already been implemented:

 

• Turn pedestal beacon victories on

• 20% of games will now be 30 minute AOW

• Removed vehicle shells

• Increased the vehicle limit to 30

• SBHs can't pick up pimp weapons

• Techs/Hotwires drop shotguns instead of remotes

• Engineers drop weak repair guns instead of shotguns

• Backpacks remain for 10 seconds (down from 20)
• Delay between uses of !tank increased to 1 minute (up from 20 seconds)

[ehh]

thank god i can still have engi shotguns and buy any weapon

[Goztow]

I'm very happy about these changes. Evaluation will show if we made the right choices but I'm quite convinced it'll be interesting changes.

[pyr0man1c]

Thanks Whitedragon!

PS: Thanks for remembering those two things that I'd missed

[Feda]

Bunkers added, much love <3

[Mikey]

Can't say I agree with all of them but hope the new changes make a good difference.

 

Cheers WD

[pyr0man1c]

[pyr0man1c]

You don't receive a refund for !bounty if the player whose head has a bounty quits, can we change this?

[Goztow]

I think you just uncovered a conspiracy, time to put on the tin foil hats 

[masscarriers]

about an hour ago (EST):

13:54 <RCAOW>Loading level C&C_Uphill_RxD.mix
13:54 <RCAOW>Level loaded OK
13:54 <RCAOW>Host: [DA] Running in All Out War Mode.
13:54 <RCAOW>[GAMEMODE] All Out War
13:54 <RCAOW>Host: [DA] Teams have been remixed.

Yup it happens, though not very often.

The server knows what mode it is running and Renames it depending what game mode is playing. Same servers.
