Suggestions & Ideas / Re: Update Voting
« on: August 22, 2015, 05:23:53 pm »Making it so that you don't get double XP unless you vote wouldn't work either then?It's quite easy to get 1000 total level within about a week, it could still be abused. Rewards would give people more reason to abuse it.What we currently have (the feedback & suggestion sections) are more than enough regarding player influence on updates. Players already have plenty of influence on updates, as long as they are able to make points with reason. A vote on updates would bring cons with it as well, you could create a ton of accounts to make a certain update have priority. A lot of people wouldn't even vote (if the forums are used) and it would require development time if there's gonna be something in-client. The system would bring a ton of flaws with it, I would much rather keep the suggestion/feedback system we have now.Ok, what about making it so you have to have atleast X total level?
You already have a say in which direction emps goes, though ultimately it's Thomy's server and he makes all the final decisions.Maybe make it so you have to have atleast X amount of playing hours to vote?Wouldn't work, quite easy to leave like 10 clients running while waiting for that playtime.
Maybe give some rewards for voting?
Make the votes only be 'which update would you like first'?
Obviously no matter what you do people are going to abuse it. Finding a way for people not to do this would be hard, but I'm sure someone would come up with a good idea!
