New "awaiting players"/Games lounge.

Post by BlindRacoon »

This has happened to me several times now.

I have joined up for a game, with say 1-2 players. i come back on 1 hour later to see the game is full up and already started. This would nto normanly be bad but i see there is someone with Bad ratings all saying "Deadbeat". He did deadbeat that game and i wish i didn't join it.

So what i propose is there shoud be an option, when a game is created, to add a games lounge. This lounge is just a chat with the map where players have to vote when they log in, these choices are:-

A) Leave Game, eg due to a bad player etc,
B) Start Game.

The game will start either, after 12 hours of in game lounge (maybe a different time?) Or until all the players have chosen "Start Game".

If any of the players choose "leave game" the game will go back out to the "Join Game" section.

I feel this could help espcially if stats for players are introduced becuase it could result in the deadbeats etc being more singled out and making RT actually start because if a player doesnt click "start Game" the others can leave knowing he wont play, therefore not taking up there RT spot.

I dont like it. If you dont like the players put them on your ignore list and never play with them again

Thats true, but then i still have one more ruined game, it could also stop RT being ruined alot less (until the speed gaes are introduced) and in team games leave some time for forward planning
