Hi Guys,

I really love this game and I played it a lot in the last days.
But I think there are some things missing at the moment, that would improve the game a lot!


1. - The Setup -
If I start the game the first hard step to handle is the setup.
People argue a lot. I think it would be much better, if everyone
can decide to setup or to abstain. Then everyone who has choosen to setup should setup the game and press start. If the majority has pressed start the game should start with options so that most people are satisfied.

The Catch and Run Funmap has also a nice solution where the game settings are made up by voting.


2. - the specific options -
When the game has started, I can not
look up what the game settings are made of.
If I cant follow the host setup, then its very likly
that I dont know how many docs could possibly be in the game or so.
It would be nice if one could see that, since the host will have
an advantage in the game otherwise.


3. - avoid short game -
At the moment 14 Player play the game. If you are one of the first who dies the game is shitty.

So why dont we play like this: We have 28 Player joining the game, then there are two games simultaneous of 14 player each. If in both games more than 10 people have died, we could start a thrid game and so on..?

Something like this is also realized in the "Catch and Run" Funmap, where the game just restarts automaticly. That one would be also nice.
I am not sure how many player can join a custommap max., but i guess its below 28 ^^



Best regards! Dox

3. Is basically impossible.

2. The game's roles list is shown in help.

1. Voting... For all those mafia settings? This will go VERY, VERY WRONG.

Other idea:
All stats info and roles given are all inside "help" tab.
Why not create other tabs like "scores" and "roles given" ?

So to restart the game after end is also impossible?

1-Have a separate tab for GAME Info
There you can see the setup choosen at begining (godfather inmune on/off, survior vests etc)

2-Who setup the game
The game asks to each player if he wants to setup game, and choose random between those who want to play. That will avoid noobs guessing and failed matchs.

3-Rewards by points

Unlock new chars (not only two ... ) by earning points, making custom skins or using other skins from the game. Why not a marine, doc, marauder etc ? That will get the game more in the space ambient as the background buildings.

1. Already in the game. Not sure what you mean by that.

2. If they want to host the game they can create it and open to public

3. 3-4 new skins were added all the way up to 1000 points.
