Thats what i was thinking of, or maybe. In every server from 3:00 min to 1:30 sec people vote for raffle or majority rules and then after 1:30 whatever system won gets chosen and the maps are shown.

I don't think people want longer lobby times.

Remove it.

Although I am no longer active on the servers, I'm still apart of the community so hear me out. The Raffle voting system has pros and cons.

Pros
Under-played maps get played.
People who cannot afford Donator still get a say in what map is played, more so then before.
The Variation in maps makes for more interesting gameplay, under-played maps have so much potential.

Cons
People go out of there way to cause grief. E.g. Vote for a map and leave, increasing the chance of the "said" map being played, disrupting clan battles, ect.
Sometimes maps with such low chances win the raffle, making up to 50% of the game leave. This results in short, un-eventful games.

I stand for removing the raffle voting. Having free choice in what maps are played is something I think the community would like back. One of my old posts claimed that this will pass, and people will get over it, but honestly, not many people are happy with it, even months later.

REMOVE THE VOTING SYSTEM - REGULAR VOTING +1

Aren't the lobbies already 3 min long?

Aren't the lobbies already 3 min long?

I believe that the lobby time is currently 2 minutes.

I believe that the lobby time is currently 2 minutes.

Well whenever i join a server it sometimes says 2:40 sec remaining so i thought 3 min

Wow this thread blew up! Thank you everyone for your feedback and please continue to talk about it. It's really giving us a lot of ideas how we can approach this issue. We may post a new post with some "options" to see what would be better.

If the thread has more votes to get rid if this "raffle voting," will it be reverted back to the old system? Or will a new adjusted system be released instead?

 

[ChadTheDJ]

Well, we want to maybe give some scenarios first on how we can approach this. Still reading the comments still as I am behind like 15 pages. Lot's of great ideas really came out of it for both with and without raffle voting.

Donors make up the minority of the community, donations are donations not, I payed now I get all that I want.
Conclusion: Harris|DareDevilMan1's point is invalid

I don't really understand...
donations are donations not?
And did you even read my post before quoting it?
I just said that they put perks in donations so more people donate. If you think that you "payed and you get what you want", you're pretty wrong..

I think if a map is not chosen its because players doesnt really like that underplayed map and you dont have to force it to be played.

You really should remove the underplayed maps and add new ones to the server as trial. I think is the only good option.

And please stop talking about the underplayed maps like a problem. You should think as a PLAYER and players dont really cares about if a map is underplayed or not. All of this stuff that you consider a "problem" should be solved without affecting the ingame experience of players in a bad way.

have a nice day <3
