i think once a player scores it should come up with a small menu saying

Show Replay?

Y or N

and you have to press y or n to decide.

just a button that you can hit during a replay to say, "GET THE FUCK ON WITH IT!"

so say if everyone left/right clicks during the replay, then it cancels.

Definately the way to go about it. Probably a 50% majority vote would suffice, though I suppose I should leave this decision up to DavidM.

SUGGESTION!

Well, more of a......i dunno what the word is

but can we make sprint charge up a bit slower? The AMOUNT of it is ok at the moment, but it needs to charge up slower so it can be done less often

please do it!!!!!!!! it doesn't affect you so you don't know, but it has to be done

even the people in AUS who love sprint agreed that it shold charge up slower

how about 3 options for replay


1. scorer decides if everyone sees it or scoring team majority vote(good for matches)
2. random replays (40% chance or less it shows the replay) (pubs)
3. no replay (just because its good to be able to leave fluff out if you want to practice or somthing)

you could always make more reply options?

could you add an arrow that works like the small ball map thing inbetween the scores at the top, but one that is along the sides of the screen when the ball os out of your fov? so nothing different when playing but when you do something and loose track of the ball it would be nice for some green arrow to appear around the screen pointing the ball is "this direction off your fov", then the arrow could go once you turn around and see it.

ugh just thought that the middle radar does that, sort of with the yellow dot around the edge, but its a bit small when 5 of you have boosted each other after a scramble for a falling ball, and some dont use the middle radar :e

From the beta(s) it looks that so far 1.9 is coming along nicely.

If replays are configurable (as it seems they will be) then I don't see the need to vote or whatever to see it. However, the slow motion replay is the only one that is really needed.

I would prefer it if the replay cam was on a fixed point - I would rather use the mouse manually to view the replay then have it follow a camera on a track or whatever. The first beta seemed to have this where the replay camera just pivoted in a fixed place. I prefer this as I can choose which angle I watch from (and it can sometimes be useful not to watch the ball - I might want to look at how I did further downfield, or to see if any teammates were boosting back to defend). I've never liked the spectator cams as they didn't let me view anything other than the ball and for this reason I always deselect them so I could manually watch whatever part of the action I choose.

So I would prefer a fixed replay cam (not on tracks) that we control (zoom in and out as now and tilt and pivot as we choose with our mice). Maybe have it that the normal replay mode is the default and players can right-click to view manually?

Also, I don't agree with lowering the self-volley power. I know it is to deter self wallpass whores, but I don't feel this is being abused and feel it only servers to limit variety in how attackers can play. And it ruins a 2v2 match, where self-wallpasses are commonplace and legitimate.

Why have we got our player height in 1.9 on the left of the screen? I'd much rather other players heights were displayed on the middle radar to determine whether an enemy is jumping behind me etc. (is this planned?).

Also please make the shortname addition to the F1 scoreboard optional. Shortname is only really useful in-game, and I see no reason why I'd want it on my F1 screen as well.

The deflections are more balanced now - a big improvement on 1.8.

One last thing, I'm glad to see Old Smallcube is back. But is it back to stay?
