Vote to Disable Rally Point Function

I’ve seen an uptick of people complaining about bad placements of rallypoints once again. I’d like to suggest a function that allows team members to vote to disable a certain rally point from the spawn map, complete with a reason as to why.

Reasons Why:

  • Trolling
  • Get stuck
  • Too exposed
  • etc.

When the vote starts it will remain on that rally point (with the reason displayed) unless it is destroyed or outvoted.

If the vote is successful, it will disable the team being able to spawn on it, and only allow the builder to spawn on it.
(So if the person is sniping for example, they can do their own thing, and it wont interfere with the rest of the team.)

Can this function be abused? Probably, but so can basically every other thing in this game.

It would at least provide an OPTION to the issue.

ADDITIONALLY, if a player’s rally point is voted out for trolling numerous times (even across multiple games) it automatically submits a report for review for possible punishment.

While I’m not saying that trolls aren’t an issue, this suggestion is focused on rally points specifically. Please try to stay on topic.

Just don’t spawn on it

I never had problem with troll, only with 1 or 2 in costum match but i played a ton of them.
If your game experience get ruined bc 1 in 100-1000 match you encounter a troll i invite to take some course of anger issue.

No. It is just better and simpler idea to kick out trolls. Somebody put barb wire that killed you on rallypoint? Kick him out. Done. Why I am not allowed to use cartain rally point that was baned because other people dont like it? Maybe I like it. Maybe I Am sniper too and want to sawn on roof? Do you see? Pointless and overthought.

Only becouse you dont care it doesnt mean that we dont need working kick out of mach system.
also who said I have anger issue? What made you think that? CAPITAL LETTERS XD? If you have problems with constantly judging people without foundation, I invite you to socialization courses xd

Bullshit idea. Nowadays people rarely build rally points, and someone wants to kick them from a game for building them.
If you are not happy —> dont spawn there.

The problem is that all the sefish players will kick all the useful people because they are the ones getting kills

Trolls who deliberately kill their teammates seeking to quit, instead of hitting the quit button.
But sadly, darkflow has been tolerant of these trolls who affect the gaming experience of others.

I didn’t suggest “kicking them from a game”.

I suggested giving the option to prevent team members from spawning on it.

Not just a matter of players, but AI squads as well that spawn on whatever rally point is closest to the objective, whether they have valid pathfinding or not!

Its a suggestion to help prevent issues with AI getting stuck especially.

OK, maybe I confused your words.

But still - in my entire game I saw only 1- 2 wrong placed rally points (one on the roof of Lehrter Bahnhof, second in the tower in Stalingrad), so I think it is needless.

Please dont be that guy and build your own Rally.

Actually, you gave me an idea.

From now on, everytime i realise im the only player building rally points,
Ill destroy my previous and build a new one in the most fuck’up place i can think of.

A rally for you to spwan you sniper so you can start shooting immediately.?

I hope You and the op play on the same team forever.

Actions that retaliated against are not recommended, and warriors need to resist their destiny :which to be new evil dragons in the end.

Vote to disable shooting function. It can get very annoying when enemies are constantly shooting.

I’ve seen my fair share of them, but I’m primarily making the suggestion as any time that I make suggestions regarding changes engineer structures, it gets brought up that “structures need to be easily removed by teammates because of trolls that lock in spawns with barbwire, sandbags, etc.”

THAT I’ve only seen a small handful of times myself, but its continuously used as a counterargument, so thought I’d propose an idea that could remedy the issue, no matter how significant or not that I personally think it is.

AI does NOT spawn on player’s rally period

YES they do. Frequently actually.

@Euthymia07 sorry to bother you, but I’m just checking my facts here, AI squads spawn on player rally points correct?

Agreed.

I get that sometimes rally points either are poorly placed or are being essentially harvested but then you just move on.

No need to add a function to the game that could be abused.
