Office/Dust2 suggestion.

Can we make it to where dead cannot talk and only admins can if they are dead. It is very annoying when you are walking around trying to listen and the dead are in your ear. It will also prevent ghosting.

 

AGREE

 

3rd that

 

You guys should allow free spec when dead it's more fun for the dead to watch both teams and easier to help detect if someone is cheating with more players being able to watch them.

 

Yeah but if you had an admin in there they could keep it in order. It just sucks having to wait a few seconds after you die for it to set you to spec your team and you always wanna see how much health your enemy had left. Understandable why you did it but it's more fun with it off imo.

 

Hey GunYa, props for using the forums to convey this. I play in the server...a lot. Dead stats, imo, are needed when force view is on. Tonight was a high par night for the server, with a lot of new to the the server players doing well... makes for some hostility. Hope to see you around more.

 

I was thinking it would be fun to have some other classic maps in the server. Maybe like nuke and italy at first and see if the server traffic picks up or everyone likes it then add from there on.

 

Woddy, Gotcha: can we have a clarification on what ghosting is? I thought it was pretty much universally understood that ghosting is when a dead player observes the actions or situations of live players, and then reports it to everyone on the server. Obviously, dead people are not supposed to give out intel that can affect game play. I know of at least one person who is under the impression that reporting on live players of your own team is not considered ghosting. Seems clear to me it is. Just because the intel doesn't help your own team, doesn't mean it can't hurt them, thus helping the other team. What say you guys as it pertains to VG servers?

 

With the CS reg/pub server being played by a lot of people lately, maybe it is time to remove all talk, to keep it more competitive. I realize it's good for catching racist comments by seeing them, but I think it would enhance game play.

Also, what about adding some maps, did you do that yet, or still thinking about it. Such as Italy

 

What about Italy, or Compound? Two fun maps.

 

Italy is okay, Compound is very underplayed.

For actual competitive maps if you want to keep it in a competitive scene, I suggest Train, Inferno, Havana.

 

I agree with Woody that it would probably do more harm than help to disable in game chat. Still though, I wish people would quit commenting on where players are or what they're doing just because they have died, are getting bored, and want to hasten the round to finish. For those who have little patience, there is gun game. All action, all the time.

 

Those that continuously call out when dead and ruin the game for others could possibly be muted if that is the case. I'm sure Woody has it set as a rule, if so please get a demo and submit it to our report center.

 

While we are talking about Pub, is it possible that we can make it to where admins can spectate both teams?

 

You should be able to in spectate lol, but if you're playing on a team I don't think that's possible to do just for admins.

 

Totally agree with Toad. Sometimes older players respect that and are silent but rare...
