ET Server Suggestion Suggestion for FA admins regarding server informations at main chat.

[AcKeNaR]

Hi!

 

I've recently started to play at Recruiting and NOQ1 servers and i would like to share my thoughts abot something, maybe the FS crew could make a little debate and decide about it.

 

I know there are many players, each one with their own playing style, and else. I am sure many players dont even look at the main chat, and they'll even disable it. Hehe

In my case, i also enjoy participating on the conversations, jokes, comments, etc... And i like to be informed about my teammates requests for ammo, medic, covering fire, etc...

 

Why i am talking about all these things? Calm, here i go...

 

 

During a map's gameplay, I've found the server information messages on main chat a bit spammy and annoying, because i have the impression that they are repeated too much.

Sometimes the main chat becomes a messy pile of colors and sounds, and the server info messages just contribute on that mess.

 

I supose the frequency these messages appear would be more comfortable for the players if it is set a bit longer, if you know what i mean. Make them not appearing so many times in a single map. I supose it doesnt depend on the map, but in the time the server is running, i dont know. This is just a thought i wanted to share with you all.

 

And this is why i post this topic. Maybe anyone else has my same thoughts, or opposite.

What do you guys think about this?

Workaround:

cg_teamChatHeight 8 (8 is default, lines displayed in chat)

cg_teamChatTime 8000 (ms, 8s default, time before messages  start fading)

 

I mostly use console to talk with people, and a very useful thing is con_autoclear 0 which lets you start typing in console, close it in case you spot an enemy, then reopen console and continue typing. ( with con_autoclear 1 text you typed before closing would just disappear)

Never had an issue with banners being displayed to often. Vsays sure, but it's easy to distinct them from normal chatter.

YES!  Ah I forgot you could set this! <3

Thanks for the info.

 

I'd rather dont modify the team chat duration and else. That's one of the main points for this topic.

Unless i could modify the server messages fading time or so, instead of the team and main chat ones, i wouldn't touch anything.

 

The con_autoclear option is interesting.

 

Thanks for the advices, guys!

they shouldnt spam if it happens again take screenshots in console /autoscreenshot then you can report it on forum
if there's a admin present in the server ask the admin we have the ability to mute vsays from people that spam them

He had banners in mind.

Visit nq1 and look for messages ----------> we are recruiting, English in main chat etc.
