In Discussion Team Switchers

Um, you only win if your original team hits 16 players and the original 4 of the team win. Plus, why would people give up? And what does exploiting mean?

 

This entire thread is obviously Cupi just trying to get more "posts" his other account was banned for spam and mingey content..

 

This would be obviously NOT true if you have known better.

I clearly saw there was a ticket for something else, I think it was something like security reasons. I can't remember exactly as the email had been deleted after I saw it. If you are trying to make people against me, go all for it! Keep in mind that this is a lie. Plus Admins/Mods don't ban people for bad ideas, and if that happened, I'd get forum banned (duhh). Also, I'd be warned for post boosting.

Oh, and I can't believe that @leo_thya believes what you said @Jaxxy

 

There are different definitions of post boosting. For one, there is post-boosting according to the Mineplex rules. According to this post-boosting rule, you are not able to be punished for it. Post-boosting could also mean literally, "trying to boost one's post count", which you basically said yourself, openly, on your own wall. So don't think I believe him just because he said it, I have my own reasons and things I've observed myself.

Anyways, this is off-topic.

 

The map is like a small arena, and yes, I will add kits, but you can give kit ideas for this

I think @Jaxxy might be actually trying to Slander me, or trying to turn people against me.

 

Nope, just pointing out the obvious, you make pointless forum threads, even stating on your profile that you are 1/18 away from your goal of beating the amount of posts you had on your previous account.

Heyo!

I gave my opinion on the previous thread I believe addressing this idea, but I'll restate. This may get repetitive and boring, not including how people could indirectly team. Also, what would be the point when you're trying to die to get onto the winning team almost? Sorry, this is a -1 from me because I don't think it would be a good active game to play.

 

THREAD NOTICE

I don't really have an opinion on this, but from what I am seeing, this thread is clearly gearing off topic. Let's remember that this is 'New Game Discussion'. This means you should be discussing the idea at hand, not each other, their profiles, etc. This thread is going to become a flame war soon if you guys don't sort this out privately and appropriately. I'll be reviewing this thread to hopefully see an improvement in the context of some of the replies on this thread. I'd rather not have to lock this, so this notice is here to allow you guys to actively and constructively contribute to the thread.

 

Im confused because wdym players sacrificing themselves to team? Is it giving up on your team, you've gotta at least try. Also, how do you make this different from Micro Battles?

 

I actually like the concept of this game and think it would be great fun! However this lacks quite a lot of detail and the answer to a lot of questions so perhaps if more details could be provided such as:

Are there any kits? If so what kits?
How long does the game last?
Ideas for any achievements?

I think this would really help people to get a better understanding of the game but I think something like this may be better suited perhaps as a Nano game instead of the minigame in Quick! where you have zombies chasing you and think that this would definitely be a better alternative to that game mode. Also as stated above there would probably need to be some time limit on the game or rounds as people could easily just keep this game going for a while and going back and forth which could perhaps make games a little irritating for the players.

 

1. I did add 1 kit (Will add more kits though you can suggest some).

2. The max time is 5 minutes. The game lasts till one team has 16 players. And the original 4 of that team actually win. If 5 minutes have passed but no winner, the team with the most players win instead!

3. I don't have any achievement ideas yet, but you can suggest some!

 

This sounds like a really neat idea for a game, although I think it'd work better as a Nano game rather than its own game mode. If this was made into a Nano game then kits wouldn't necessarily be required which could help keep this simpler. Although, as a few people have mentioned there's some issues with the winning system and the potential trolls that would throw the game. I've thought of a few fixes, but also found downsides to them as well.

At first I thought that instead of everyone on the winning team getting the win, only the players that started on that team would get the win and the others would be counted as a loss. Except that in this case players wouldn't be motivated to help the team that they got moved to, and would most likely let their original team kill them so they can get changed back.
However, if a sweep happened (such as red coming in and taking out all of yellow) then there's no way for the original yellow team to win since all their players have been moved to another team. So with no way to win they'd most likely throw the game, or just quit and find a new lobby.

So with that thought in mind all players on the winning team should get a win so that there's motivation to help another team win when the person gets killed and moved to another side. Although players would just throw the game when they see a team winning which is the original problem.
A separate stat could be added though. So players originally on the team would get a "win" and anyone moved to that team could get an "assisted win" (an assisted win would also get fewer rewards than a full win, but more rewards than a loss) but maybe that's complicating things too much.

I like the concept of the game, but it seems to me that there's no best way to approach this and it just comes down to an honor system. A system that requires players to be fair and fight for the team they're on even if they don't get any win stats, which unfortunately isn't likely to happen in my opinion.

 

Updates: Turned the 4 teams of 4, to 2 teams of 8 (I hope this reduces sacrificing). Also, I added "assisted wins" as suggested by @GuitarHero_King!
