Map Vote

[Daft Loon]

With VIP added the 3 random option map vote is starting to get fairly limiting, skyball will make this more of a problem and if we ever get more King of the Hill maps the chance of even getting to vote for a map you want will be rather small. The simplest option I can see is to separate the vote between mode and map, which order to go for is a question though, both options would leave some cases with no second vote, Canyon Ambush = auto deathmatch, King of the hill = auto Labyrinth/Desert Scrap.

Speaking of which, where is VIP mode for Canyon Ambush?? The permanent spot solves the main problem of the map while still allowing the escort ships to fulfill the ambush part.

Holy Death Canyons, Batman, there is no Ambush VIP! How could I miss that?

It must happen.

On the map vote, agreed. Sometimes I want to play none of the modes presented. Maybe add a reshuffle option. Oh, and add a blind random mode for giggles.

[Daft Loon]

The occasional lobbies where all the pilots ready up during the map vote and through the 3s countdown are already rather amusing, on that basis blind random would be great fun.

Or you could just make text based vote on all maps like in CS:GO?



First mode vote and then map vote from all the maps. Ez.

i always thought it was dumb to only get 3 choices. should be at least 6 with ties going to aplhabetical order.

If the number of votes for each map/mode displayed in real time you could move your vote to whatever option you like that has the most current votes.

Ex:

Dunes - 5 votes

Fjords - 4 votes

Paritan - 2 votes

Duel - 1 vote

Hazard - your vote

You could change to a vote for Fjords and hope the other 3 minority voters also do so. Tie-breaking would be more rare unless the vote split evenly compared to blind voting where 3-3-3-2-2-1 or similar would be common vote totals.
