Spectating

I would like to point out Global Agenda and Stargate Resistance are 2 very different games. GA is an mmorpgtps which allows you to group with 4 others for mission with specific way to get to point A to B.

While SGR is a typical online shooter and so there is no real comparison.

Thank you for your reply, and you answers, thats all I wanted

2) I am an ordinary Player, I think you misread my Post? I hinted that You weren't an ordinary Player, are you not a QA Tester or something?

4) Not everyone thinks like that Aaron, and people don't tend to know these forums exist until visiting the website etc for help and support ... even then they have an email address etc, (lets leave it at this, as it isn't relevant to the topic).

3) That Scenario could happen, if you want me to prove it I could happily do a test scenario with you

Player A is on the same team as Player B, and Player A just commits suicide to spectate Player B, giving him much longer to spectate etc ...

What advantage do I gain by not allowing Players to spectate me? Could you be a bit more specific? Thank you

I tested it in game to make sure my scenario could work and it does have the potential to be subject to abuse ...

Look if you can't do it to a person on another team then I am ok with it. You can only do it for so long before Idle kick comes.

i spectate mate if i think they are exploiting or useing some form of advange like HAX MATE..

i will record them and sent to devs if i believe something werid has happened
and i will not just do it onces i will spec over a period of time..
and yes i do some of it with a diffenet name..

to remove spec mode u will incourage cheaters as how can we get are footage

i mite have to spec u

so whats next ?????

You can do it to a Player on the same team, so it is open to abuse and to avoid Idle Kick, just respawn every so often and suicide ....

I sincerely hope the Devs fix this so that it avoids abuse and that they give Players the option to whether they want to allow players to spectate them.

Otherwise Player A can simply go on tormenting Player B and ruining there fun.

This is an interesting point, and I had not considered this Nova .... so I thank you for the constructive input.

Feel free to spectate me, so long as you don't abuse it (give away my position etc) I have nothing to hide, and I am not trying to be unfriendly or annoying by starting this topic, I just feel we should all have the right to choose, whether to allow people to spectate.

If the Devs did make an option to stop people spectating, another way to catch cheaters would be to go as an Ashrak and cloak near them and watch them that way? Would that work Nova?

oh no thats a NO NO

if your in spec you spec thats it..
u aint ingame so no interfearing or doing stuff like that

removed the txt field if in spec is one way to stop that..
i one i would support as i have 1 player here thats does that
he will stay in spec and just try to troll me and be rude and crude
but screen shots have sorted that 1 out ..now he just uses diffenet words..lol

but yeah i get u on that 1

and ive done the whole ashrak thing and theres some good snipers out there
and if there are in ts thats cool cos they know what your doing but if they aint in ts by the time i have a nice spot... boomhead shot.. so its quite hard..

but what i will say if a dev is on
they can spec in gobal mode and
you can then be left to kill mainly the one u think is haxin so then they will use it if that makes sence and they wont know big brother is watchin

i agree removing the txt field will limit potential abuse, but we would have to remove team speak also, as there is still potential for abuse there ... another option would maybe be just to reduce spectating down to a few seconds entirely, then you automatically respawn?

This would solve the trollin abuse you have Nova?

However like you say Nova spectating is a great way to uncover cheaters and I never even considered that, so many thanks for pointing it out

Ben can you stop complaining and just play the game like the rest of us.

Oh yeah ben out of curiosity why do you have your account on invisible mode?

Just because you can't answer my issues raised doesn't mean I am complaining. Nova answered with constructive input, so can you

Please close the thread, Devs are aware of issues relating to spectating

What issues? Maybe we should do a poll and ask people.
Well because we know they really work /sarcasm

Ok why would you remove text fields in the game and what does teamspeak got to do with SGR.

/derp.

Have fun playing by yourself

Funny didn't I see you cry on Leonops and rage quit because you can't take anyone saying anything more then hi to you?

I found 2 pictures which sum up this thread.

This picture sums up the start of the thread.


This pictures sums up the end of the thread:

You can answer most of these problems with two words:

"Nobody cares."


This has been proven over and over on other topics.

Dam it, I wish I was on the forms yesterday, than as soon as I saw the thread I could be like "oh god, hear we go again".

well thats why I summed it up for people with the post with the 2 pictures .

Ultimately folks it comes down to 1 thing.

PLAY.

There are lots of challenges with every game and noting the issues(For correction if a issue exist) versus Complaining(user is not happy with his/her game play experience) will change your prospective of the play experience.

Playing the game is how you evolve as a player. If you keep running back to the sniper .. cough...Seros...cough... and get sniped.. the game play experience tells you to find him a different path or work with a team to overcome him. I.E. user will evolve with tactics and teamwork.

Play the game. Enjoy it.. As we have seen the Dev team is listening and making the game better with every patch. Are there issues.. darn skippy but can you do anything about them right now. NOPE. So play enjoy evolve as a gamer of SGR.

Have fun.. and evolve your skills.
