When is it time to vote a new map ?

Post by popnstyle » Tue Jul 31, 2007 11:40 am

Ok say there is about 12 people on a map, atleast 4 of them lost weapons to do map buggyness, 3 or 4 not able to spawn because of map buggyness and only a couple people able to play, and its just wave 14. Is this then the time to vote a new map ? I say it is, but there were other saying no. By the end of that map there was only 2 people that didnt get a bug. One of wich was a level 30 or so that was bitching the whole time not to vote.

Let 'em bitch. Simply put, majority rules. If it's that buggy, enough people will probably vote to move out of the map. Tell people who bitch to STFU and not vote - it's just as much their right to abstain from voting as it is everyones to/not vote. If they continue bitching in the next map, don't toss them any powerups - and I can assure you that you probably won't be the only one!
I will consistently sacrifice political correctness for an attempt at humor. If ya can't deal, then ya need ta stop being ign'ant.

Time to vote new map

Post by border_2 » Tue Jul 31, 2007 2:00 pm

When u cant see weapons or even use a weapon its time to map vote.Its not worth 1000 points if it takes 1 hour 30 min then the only person not bugged kills until he or she is last then she dies and you got nothing out of it except a headache.That happened to us today people thought that 1 person could when the game 4 us using a medic b shotgun,what were they thinking?The server had problems most of the day today and i could never get enough votes to change maps.Dont worry about those 1000 points we dont win very many bugged maps anyway so just vote in the future.

Yep because of a few selfish noobs many played without a gun for most of game.We did get 5 votes but they voted different maps so it didnt help.Yes there were a few that insisted we dont vote even after i said the server might crash if we keep playing it.Like Sirbeast said remember these few selfish noobs pop i know i will.Then when im last alive and there mouth is wattering over those 1000 points ill die thats payback baby!Also the one non noob that was only 1 with weapon hid the last 5 waves she should have went out there like she was lvl 226 not like she was lcl 30.

Only good times to vote

a) End of game
b) If we lose
c) If a monster is stuck in a glitch and no one can access it since there isn't an admin on.

And your able to predict when the map is going to crash, and ensure that it wont crash after the map vote?

Option d

No i cant predict when it will happen i just think that voting out of a map thats getting worse by the wave is safer than playing it bugged and risking a crash like we got.

ummm..every map i have played for like months now gets "worse" as the waves proceed. and when more than 2 foreign (european/russian/italian/etc) players are on, it is horrendously bad. if this was the case, then every map should be voted off before wave 18. but in every case we always play it through. only time maps gets voted to another is when a monster is impossibly stuck or some other major issue where no fighting is possible o,,o

those who want to vote because they are dead or not able to handle not being super duper killers in face of the slowness and lag are just pathetic. i think its sometimes challenging to try and hit monsters who are like ninjas teleporting every second a few meters in some direction where its unexpected and a bit scary-thrilling to be hit by enemy fire and have no idea where its coming from ^,,^

i am not saying i like the choppiness and annoying gameplay..but i have gotten used to it here after the half year or so playing here
