New border change suggestion #1


PoofessorP - 2021-02-04 02:40:14 UTC

(I just wanna preface this by saying I like the new change, just some things I think personally are gameplay affecting)
The new change is: "All UHC game modes meetup: the border now shrinks based on the number of players still in game." And also that skybasing is much more enforced.

Suggestion #1: Chat tells you something like, "A player has died! The border will now shrink smaller." As a warning, because every time I kill someone or just when I'm spectating games the border always shrinks a whole bunch while you'd be looting a persons body (for gear, healing etc) so it can be pretty hard to benefit off of kills or I just watch players die to suffocation due to be caught in the border

I do not plan to add a 3rd message when someone dies. You already get two messages when someone dies: one is the vanilla death message, and the other one is the "X has been eliminated!". Just assume that when you get that message, the border will shrink, it's not hard.

That's fair if you don't want a cluttered chat, but instantly dismissing it with that statement is extremely unfair to players that are new to the server, if somebody plays their first game, are proud of a kill they got and instantly die right afterwards due to the border shrinking extremely fast and the lack of knowledge, I don't imagine that player wanting to play another game. Plus you are the one that told me let everyone discuss their opinion regardless what you think of a change :P I'm also considering other options, like making the border so you can move freely around in it and you don't just get stuck in it, or a warning sign that displays above your hot bar. Or of course just not adding it all if people don't like it. Also now that I think about it, "It's not hard." Can actually apply to Veterans and not just new players, because some of us have played for years and are so used to the vanilla same border every game border. So it's not that simply put :p
