Don't show dead's teamchat to still living in Realistic Survival
« on: November 05, 2006, 11:21:32 am »
In survival mode there is a thing called spying and it's forbidden in all clanwars and all R/S servers except for Leo's (which is pretty gay(not meaning the server but the fact that it's allowed)). Spying.
This is when you tell your teammates where the enemy is when you are dead, so they can easily foresee there movement and have a big tactical advantage knowing the opponents step. But it ruins all tactism, like rushing the enemy front from behind, thats why it's pretty lame.
I really want Michal to make Teamchat of dead people invisible for still playing ppl in 1.3.2 (only when survival mode active). this would prevent lots of noobish conversations about spying in pubs ("SPYER NOOB KICK!!11!1" "i dont care mother****a!!") and reduce /kick and /ban work for admin. overall it would improve R/S servers alot.
so pleeeaaaase michal, pimp my ride!
oops
so pleeeaaaase michal, implement this with 1.3.2

Couldn't this be added into the dedicated server? I think thats where it would be used. Pm enesce about it, or wait for him to read this.

it's maybe not realistic that you can tell your teammates where the enemy is when you've died, but otherwise it's like walkie-talkie. the only thing MM could fix there is to add an walkie-talkie when you're using teamchat. the thing that you can tell your teammates where the enemys position is (when you're dead) is just Soldat-style :P

Ehh... If you disabled team chat, I could still tell where the enemy is using normal chat, only the dude thats hiding will know I said it.

And dont disable regular chat either. I like starting conversations when I am dead. I'd be dissapointed to have that taken away from me.

Maybe make it so when you are dead and you talk people on your team that are alive cant hear you, but allow teamchat still but have the alive members not talk.

Im so much for this!

I've been thinking why this was not implemented already, but then was hesitating to suggest, because im 100% sure this has been suggested before.

E: Ahh. Mr Domino posted the link... :P

I'm fairly certain this would be implemented server-side.  If it was added, it should of course be an option, not something that is always the case.

Well, IMO the easiest way is to make that dead people can not talk, only in team chat, client-side. And that people can't see texts by dead people, in case there would be hack which would workaround the first thing.

Spying is like spawnkilling, barretarding, M79 whoring, camping...and capping in r/s ctf. ITS PART OF THE GAME....If you take away team chat for dead people, what will stop them from using Ventrillo or Teamspeak or Xfire to warn their team? THINK ABOUT IT

You can already do this with Soldat Server scripting...

bmekim made a script to do this ---> http://enesce.com/forum/index.php/topic,151.0.html

Um. Why not make it so there's no popup text at all? You know, only in the console. They can't see that.

no it's not, it's like rejoining in R/S in older version, simply totally forbidden, it's not lame or anything, it's FORBIDDEN
