The Dead Lobby
Summary (a quick, 2-3 sentence summary):The Dead Lobby would be a place where dead players can re-spawn if they don't want to spectate. This lobby can be small or big but the point is that you can re-spawn as what ever you want and fight between each other till the round ends.
Benefits (How this will benefit the server and game as a whole):I believe that adding this lobby will entertain dead players that don't like spectating and reduce the amount of people that lave the game.
Details (Description of how you think this would work, the benefits, etc):The lobby might be located near the admins or somewhere completely different that wont disturb actual players. In this place you can re-spawn as many times as you want and basically just slaughter each other till the round ends. Some admins also get bored just waiting for a fight or have time to spare so they can quickly clean up this are to prevent any lag or just make an arena style area that isn't to big.
Implementation (Optional, if you have an idea how to implement it):

This would result in a massive number of attack logs that would clog up the logs and would clog up admin screens.

Re: The Deaad Lobby
Cool suggestion, but it would take a lot of work, you can use the thunderdome to ease the pain, but its still a slight pain in the ass to code it, +1 but i don't think they will do it, as the dev team is fairly...exhausted to say the least

As if Xenos don't already have enough problems with players refusing to play them and brain dead larva.
You're death gameplay is joining as a Xeno. We don't need this, not to mention the amount of log clutter slc mentioned.

Re: The Deaad Lobby
Yeah, as much as i want this it would make sifting through attack logs an even bigger pain in the ass for staff and being dead isn't all bad actually, you get to watch robust people being robust without being robusted yourself!
Sorry but it's a -1.

Re: The Deaad Lobby
This was denied before and I made a suggestion exactly for this. Lock it up Snype.
You will never be as bad as the baldie who picked up a tactical shotgun while a hunter was pouncing on top of a CMO for 4 seconds, with his only response being to pace around before being decap'd by said hunter. You are not Brett Kimple, and you never will be. You are not the reason why I regular MP.

Not sure I have anything new to add here. If you're bored after you died just load up a different game or server until the round ends.

Alteration: Perhaps instead of a slaughterfest, a chill place like a bar or something two to three bartenders, dialysis machines right outside to take care of drunkenness. The respawn could be if people just die of alcohol poisoning.

Re: The Dead Lobby
As much as we'd all like a little something to pass the time when we are dead, I can't help but imagine this being easily abused to the point that xenos will need more buffs in order to survive.
Normally when you die, you have the choice to join the xenos (if there are any) or simply to observe the round and recollect on your failures. You don't wanna xeno, too bad, it's that or sit out the round.
This might be nice and all when there are no more larva to play as, but even then, no doubt it would be abused by players who display dreadful bias against the xenos (either out of over-competitiveness or not liking the idea of not getting to shoot things), which would hurt xeno populations more than they already do.

Sometimes, bravery comes from the most unlikely sources.

Re: The Dead Lobby
Don't really think we need this, it would just hinder mods and admins having to watch over both areas and clogging up logs.

Re: The Dead Lobby
This would only encourage some players to die to join the dead lobby, along with other issues already stated. Denied.
