autosplit kills game

Most times, after autosplit players leave game. Nubs, and pros, all hate when they forced by some stupid algorithm. If pros whant to play alone, they go to pro- room, or call split vote.

It just happend, before autosplit there was about 20+ people wanted to play in teams. Then autosplit. And now only few people playing teams, and few playing with chickens

Geez what are you talking brroleg! Player numbers decreased because of time of the day and weekend is over soon. Great job, now it's all shitgames 24/7 again.

I think that less harsh method which discourages people to play super big games would prevent super massive games, and people would call !split more often.

I suggested in some previous topics reasonable unit limit which would mean acceptable performance at any teams size, which would stay same no matter how many people play that way in big team battle you couldnt spam 1000 fleas and kill game for everyone.

Lets say 2000 units(eco structures excluded) on all map 1000 units each team. That would mean if you play 10x10 you can have only 100 units which can attack, people would notice that and maybe would decide play smaller games just because they could control bigger armies. Nice bar above would show how much units you have and also you would see how many you can build just like metal bar or something.

Also maybe laoding screen which explains !split in some nice way would work too.

I agree that split is irritating. I would just lower player limits. As I am sure people will agree though, very few people like 10v10.

[pikts]wolas Please don't drag that one up again...

Because they prefer 10v10 over 1v1 or not playing at all and the QM menu has a bad reputation or is too confusing for them, wolas.

Player limit breaks quickmatching, it would need major redesign/rewrite of quickmatch system.

Limit would also prevent skill separation.

Now all players are clumped together and when enough are present it splits them by elo.

Nah brroleg, that would mean when games reach 15v15 all the nabs would press no to split xD

Huh? What?

I think people always need a little guidance.
Just like a car parking lot needs lines painted on the pavement because simply hoping people will park reasonable does not work.

There are many examples of this in the real world, in fact zK has some too:

If players did not fill the map with map marker spam there would be no need to implent a clear-map-drawing-button. http://zero-k.info/Forum/Thread/5120
If players shared resources by their own will there would be no need to implent communism eco.
