Scanning through these threads, it seems that people are not understanding a wishlist It doesn't mean, "I love the game but scrap it and build this version"... Anyway, here is a small list I complied with a few additions that I think would improve the game quality and hopefully get a few more people on the MNC ship. My MNC Wishlist - Update (Not DLC) Better Host Migration - Occasionally when the host migrates, players are not able to keep the juice they had at the time, custom classes get pushed back to defaults, turrets lose upgraded status, etc. These issues should (hopefully) be fixed first and foremost. Server improvement and host migration improvement alone would make this game one of the better Xbox games available. Xbox Parties - I know I hate comparing it to Call of Duty; however, that game has a very nice party based game selection screen. After getting in to a game lobby, players should not have to back out and invite to get back in to their party. Adding a player to your already existing party also forces everybody to back out. Server Lag - With all of the bots running around, I know that the servers may experience some lag; however, two things need to be looked at a little closer with the next update. First, maybe review the code for the server selection at the beginning. It seems that the game will pick a very poor host occasionally and the game lags very bad (stuck in the spawn, cant choose a class or run). Secondly, the game needs code to test current lag for the players and migrate the host if the lag is above a certain threshold. Too often, when a bad host is selected, you are stuck in the spawn and there is no timeout or migration unless the host himself leaves. Everybody is forced to back out, which is a huge problem because the party support is very poor in the game. Big Wish (Server Support) - Here is a far fetched wish, but this is a wishlist right? Any time someone rolls around with a good team, the other team will constantly back out. The host (more often than not) continues to migrate to the opposing team causing host migration every 5 minutes of game play. It would be great to have some code that could test maybe time spent in the lobby also before giving host to a player. More Bacon!!! - I know bacon is a rare drop and all, but I mean - hook us up a little more often! I mean, who doesn't want more bacon. One drop every two games would be a better fit My DLC Wishlist TDM Game Type - I know I've been reading posts that say, "More game types = less players to anyone game type, so it's tough" and I respect that point; however, it would be nice to see a 8v8 TDM game type. Without the bots, without the turrets. That would cut down on lag substantially and the existing maps should fit in well to a 8v8 TDM style of play. CTF game type would not work with the current set up (IMO)... maps are too large, player support wouldn't be there anyway More Maps - Yeah yeah, I sound like a broken record player I know... A few more maps would be a nice addition. LazerRazer Arena is one of the best maps (IMO), more maps with integrated walls, multiple layers (top, bottom), hidden turret areas as such would be a great addition (and a very welcomed addition) to the game. XBL Season/Playoff - Season mode, playoff mode, etc - we need a couple more maps for those. Also something needs changed up to make it more interesting... maybe the infinite game mode needs to ease into the heavy bots later so that you get a little time to build up your defense. A 30 round game is over in 15 minutes, and it's the exact same thing over and over again - way too repetitive to play more than a few times. That's all for now, I think the requests are not unreasonable and would make the game much more playable for a longer period of time. LazerRazer is a great map (small, compact, multiple layers, tunnels) etc, so I would love to see a few more maps integrating all of that. I think you guys have a great game here, and I really can't wait for the DLC to come out (if you guys plan on releasing some ) Best of luck to the company and the future games your team develop!
Does anyone else want to see more xbla achievements? I was on a team who got a 10 game winning streak and I thought that warranted some GPs....
my my wihs thats on the top of the list is a ladder. we get a ladder on this game and its on. it will greatly increase the popularity in this game to i would think.
