Option to disable equipment change cooldown in pro battles


 Share

Recommended Posts

We need this. When im playing parkour, i change equipment and friend asks me to take dictator and hammer, i have to re-join. When we realise dictator isnt fitting, i gotta rejoin again. This is not only for parkour (But should be set as default on parkour mode and time should be infinite in parkour mode. No i dont mean 999 time but INFINITE! No clock needed for parkour.)

Lets say you play in a battle. You accidentally take the wrong equipment but you already got some kills. What happens? Yea. You become mult and give enemy free kills because you got mammoth+isida combo. What you gotta do to be able to play? Yea. You must loose score or get killed a lot of times and have a chance to be banned for "Intentional enemy feeding" or multing, or watever you wanna call this.

As far as i think, OPTIONS should be implemented because they dont remove anything from game and gives more freedom to players.

Maybe they should just disable it in parkour battles...

I don't actually think having it as an option for pro battles is needed. The time limit is fine as it is and prevents people wasting more time on choosing equipment than using it. 

Also, having every parameter of a battle customisable isn't really a good idea.

The idea is too specific imo. A Pro Battle is practically like a "build your own battle." Heck, why not allow players to choose where the Flags and Supplies drop? :lol:

The cool down is there to prevent people from choosing turrets/hulls/modules which counter their opponents' equipment.

Flags and supplies would need to change map file. The flag and drops are like props. They are placed by a human and if they get changed, it may fill up your memory quite fast (As far as i think, some maps are in your cache folder) because each time you move the flag to different place, you might need to download that map in your cache and it takes space. But if it doesnt download new map each time, then you will see outdated cache error.

Cooldown is meant to prevent it, yes. But that is pro battle where battle creator chooses how he wants to play.

You're right, but as Phenom said, pro battles aren't a build your own battle setting.

I agree that parkour shouldn't​ have cooldown times, but I don't think that adding a level of customisation to every aspect of a battle is a good idea.

So here is a new option I came up with to help battle customization in PRO battles better.

An option to alter the cool down time of equipment change. Right now, equipment coordinator time is design for MM. PRO battles should be able to alter the ridiculously long equipment change time. 

Hope you guys agree with this idea, i would like to have this for parkour especially ?

Another day wasted on an idea. Tomorrow!

There's a fairly effective way of searching for ideas, either via topic titles or tags, which is available to everyone. It's useful to check if your idea has been posted already, especially if it's something as straightforward as disabling change cooldown in PRO battles.

Here's a tip - If you come up with an idea and you think it's actually a good one, there is a huge chance that the idea has been suggested by somebody else before.

There should be an equipment cooldown but I think because of the recent update it did get increased to 9 minutes that's for real too much at pro battles and it should be 9 minutes only for MM and at pro battles to stay 2 to 5 minutes only tho I still think 7 or 8 was OK for MM
