Title: Kicked while having 5x multiplier
Post by: mulas on May 02, 2011, 12:57:53 am
Ok, late last night in Siege NA server, I had 5x multiplier for a longest time ever, 2 maps continuously, I was top of the chart. Then all the sudden I got KICKED!!! Then I remembered a peasant was looking at me funny. God damn, I was so mad, I wanted to strangle that bitch so bad.  :mad: It was the first time it happened to me. Remove this new feature please.

Mind you, it was early in the morning, there were only around 20-35 people playing, and I was always top of the chart. I'm the reason we were winning.

If you don't want to get kicked, press the damn key. The warning message is there for a reason.

IS IT HELLA FUCKING NOTICEABLE ? or is it one of those little bitch messages in the bottom corner?

I didn't see any message, is it in the chat text box? Because I don't pay attention to that most of the time.

5 red lines pops up where the omnitext box is telling you to press M.

Can we extend the timer? 10 seconds is too short. If you need to alt-tab to level up or buy some gear you're fucked if someone reports you immediately. Why not 30?

My personal favorite is the guy you are fighting presses it quick and you don't notice because you are in the middle of fighting him and others.  Insta-win tactic.  great way to remove top players from the fight and you get an extra multiplier if you succeed.  Why isn't everyone doing it?... oh wait, they are.

Don't think you play siege very often, I've stopped playing there completely myself due to the insane lag I get on top of people pulling this on me.

When I'm in the middle of archering the absolute LAST thing I'm looking at is the peasant to my left looking at me funny.  The second last thing I'm looking at is the goddamn chat box where the warning appears.  Tankmen and Kesh are correct - it's a little bitch message that I at least cannot see in the middle of battle.  Is it a personal failing?  Maybe, but I've been trolled with it twice now when I was clearly in combat both times so I am completely against this system.

Half my clan at one time or another has ahd this crap pulled on them on siege.  I got it from Druzhina_Segd as I opened one of the back doors to allow my teammates to shoot out and then clsoed it again, he actually spammed me with it ten times through the door and got me the tenth time when i was fighting him and a couple others as the door broke down.  So yes it is done and very very often abused, especially by trolls and people looking for increased multipliers already on x1 so have nothing to lose.  Very easy to miss even when I do pay attention to chat, because well it is a combat not a chat game and sometimes you are too busy to read whats going on in chat.

Meh using the Report Leecher thing is stupid.

Since.... it will bug the website. And it wont update your xp for a long long time.

Ran around with x6 for great amount of time. Had 500K xp diffrence from Game status to Website status. Once i rejoined a game, i got a rollback.. and basicly lost all the XP i had accumulated, helping the communtiy to get rid of leechers  :lol:

You're not given any of the xp from a x6-10 or higher as far as I know.

Some rounds i had x1 after we lost. Xp wasnt updating then also.

It seems it completely freezes the website status down. No XP or Gold flow. If you have used the Report Leecher command at any time in the game.

A limitation on this is being planned and/or implemented, hopefully in the next patch.

Well then that would be another bug with it.

Make it soon!  :D :D :D :D :D

There will never be an eta for patches, you should all know this by now.

Depends on how many things they want in the next patch, perhaps some more work on DTV and some new items like the yumi bow.

Also, if you mute the voice text with Q M V, you cannot see when someone reports you.

So you have to deal with people spamming all the time, or risk being accused of being a leecher and not seeing it, or just spam M constantly.

Is that what that shit is?  I had to turn off voice chat commands, it was obvious those sound files were going to be spammed nonstop all day long in the servers.  Drove me nuts.  But maybe that's why I never see this leecher stuff.

Well now that we know you turn off chat commands, we will introduce you to this little gem  :P

I'm admin on the servers I play on, so I guess we'll see if that gives me immunity to this "feature" as well :)

It has a poor implementation because if someone is going to bot, they're going to make their bot hit M also so why not just give the players that are being abused in fights with it the benefit of the doubt and make it keyboard input stops the timer.

Also, it logs who reported and who was reported to the db so gl abusing it hardcore and getting away with it. Also x2, if you get kicked, there is a chance that it eats ALL your gold. That's a pretty hilarious bug/feature.

Can I just delete the sound files? It won't get rid of the chat spam but at least I won't have to hear the stupid voices all round. THis kicking think must be on the seige server because I haven't seen or heard anything about it on the battle servers.

One of the biggest troll/griefer features ever (nobody thought it through before release?!?);
the timer is entirely too short.

If this was to be a real feature at all, it should be 1, 2, or 10 minutes, not 10 seconds,
and the accusation message should be flashing up every couple seconds till the timer runs out (also have timer on screen perhaps).

just so you know - if you get reported, answer in time, the one reporting you gets a minus multiplicator. It can go down to 0x. I'll add that he will get kicked when doing a wrong report with 0x.

Also, spamming the m key is obviously getting reported, good luck with your db ban.

change the leecher vote thing

reason: ppl rage leech kick u when in fight and u dont see they reported you.

sug 1: make the time longer (so u have time to notice it)
sug 2: make it show up as kick polls do, and make 1 and 2 so it goes away (most ppl have reflex to press 1 or 2 when a poll starts)

why are people getting + multiplier for using this? Remove that, and let it be used as intended. Not a farming tool.

This. And maybe make the message more noticable/repeat more often (midscreen possible)? I was kicked two times already in midfight. And because i was concentrating on the fight instead of the messages i got kicked. I simply didnt see them.

same thing happened to me last night, probably because i had top score, but same thing.  when i'm in a battle, the last thing i'm reading is the chat in the lower left corner.  all i'm focusing on is my next victim's melon :wink:

fortunately the guy who started the accusation got kicked later for TKing (surprise).

Just make it so that 2 or 3 people are required to do this to kick someone.

THis kick feature is not a good one.  It is more harmful than helpful.  If I have to go pee, or buy equipment, I can be kicked.  Not cool.

If someone is afk for 2 or 3 rounds, sure go kick them.  But if they wont respond for 30 seconds or so...give them a break! 

Someone leaching for a couple rounds is harmless compared to kicking an active player with a multiplier because they didn't see a message, or had to step away for a min.
