Variable Victory Notifications

posted on March 28th, 2012, 5:43 am

IMHO: The "You are Victorious" notification that 'you've won' is kinda boring.

Suggestion (minor): Spruce up the victory notification. Give each faction their own text/color/animation - for Feds, give it (perhaps) the LCARs font to say "Victory". For Klingons, give it in Klingon.

The sudden, entire-map-visible change I've never liked. I'd suggest to not do that... leave map visibility as is at the end of the game.


(just some super minor thoughts)

Hey uncle Yandon,

I consider the victory notification so unimportant that after years of playing the mod I still don't remember what it says in the first place. Why bother diversifying something so insignificant?

And as of all, 97% of all online games terminate with a "gg" before the victory is even complete.

By the way, are we seeing you on teamspeak anytime soon? I allways love watching new recordings. Maybe even fight this time, get a little ventilated youself?

variable victory text: fine by me.

the visibility thing: why change it? i currently think it's useful, as when you're defeated in a 1v1 you can see what the enemy had, like where they had expanded and how many yards they had. that way you can see more info on how you were beaten. a bit like watching your death in fps games.

I also like the end game visibility.  I don't like the fps death camera rotation to be done in FLOPS.
