Queen calls

Post by adamkad2 » 19 Feb 2017, 13:24

Summary (a quick, 2-3 sentence summary):When you start off as alien, and when queen cd runs out, all larvas and drones should get window "do you want to be queen" with yes, no and if nobody wants options

Benefits (How this will benefit the server and game as a whole):Tells every alien who wants to be queen, so theres less bullshitry in hivemind

Details (Description of how you think this would work, the benefits, etc): Give all starter aliens and all drones and larvas alive when queen cd runs out the aforementioned window. If there is a draw, make a window for aliens to vote on who should be the queen (although it would not have any impact on shitters deciding to rush it anyway). When everyone votes, the results pop up in bold in chat window

Implementation (Optional, if you have an idea how to implement it): Make it like those deadrole popups in some servers or something?

This place would be so much better if marines were replaced with cyborgs, atleast those would follow orders. assuming there was a rule forcing them to do so...

This isn't a bad suggestion. In my experience, though, sometimes larvae compete for the position early-game by spamming drone and so on.

Either way, the early bird gets the worm. This just makes it more streamlined. +1

-1, I'd rather not have a democratic election for the role or anything of the sort. Aliens literally fight for the queen's role in the lore and generally speaking I'd rather have a retarded hive do with a retarded queen and pay the consequences, than to have everyone go through a forced methodology just to do something so simple as to git gud.

PS: Literally though, if people gets pissed that the queen was poop and all, they force themselves to go queen in the later rounds and get to learn the role. Furthermore enhancing the number of players who can main queen. It's not a TOTALLY WRONG IDEA, but it's added code and out-of-game pop-ups and I'm not all that in for that.
CM was obviously inspired by Starcraft: Ghost opening. At least when marines takes too long to deploy.
