:idea: I also like the ability to kick playas idea. If not abused, it would be great. The ratio of players who do and do not want a player to be kicked wud have to be worked out tho. 8)

If implemented it WILL get abused. PPl will kick others for fun. There is no end to the problems this would cause. Elvis should not implement this feature.

Maxx, ppl dont kick others just for fun......maybe in "lala maxxy land" but not on planet earth....unless the are deeply dispised....ahem.......but then it should be made so u can only kick ppl if theyre lagging too much or if theyre in a game that accidentally was not lcoked (an organized strict game)...so there maxxx......welcome to the 21st century...u twit

I think something that kicks u when ur ping goes below xxx would be more effective and automatic. One feature i would'nt mind seeing is one where when somebody calls a hold, all tanks have 5 sec to move and then are frozen (or something like this, as i have seen many ppl move during a hold)

Well this is a feature that although I think would be great sometimes, it would ALSO be abused heavily. How many of you notice that after there's a hold, whatever the reason, the momentum just about always changes. Probably because during a hold, people have time to THINK strategy, and teamates have a chance to DISCUSS strategy. Holds are necessary when there's an lgm bug (something I haven't encountered much on this version) or if a player gets dropped, but they're not good for the pace of the game. So if this "pause" button type feature is put in, it would have to be HEAVILY regulated.

ok ok ok ....dont get your panties in a twist. :lol:

what is that suposed to mean?

I don't like any of the ideas except for the skin. One thing I was thinking about is a different color for neutral pillboxes. I have been in many pillwars where it would be really nice to know if your shooting an enemy pill or a neutral. There really is no way to tell if you've never played the map before and also if there is a cluster of pillboxes about. As far as kicking people and pausing the game, there are far too many children playing winbolo today. Children like to play games. Unfortunately children aren't as mature in general as some adults. These features would definately be abused.

Turn pill labels on. since neutral pills are a dull red and enemy pills are a bright red, you can tell by looking at the pill number on the screen and refer to the pill index on the right.

Maybe a different color for each player. But then who gets stuck with pink?

I don't like turning on pill labels or base labels because all those numbers take away from the game. and i dont have time to look up at the pill chart and on the screen to see what is what. by simply making a pill blue would be better

Skins will not help players differentiate between neutral and enemy pills as they are the same colour.
