Hacking

[Hikowa]

yeah i figured the Little timer would show up in everyone hud right under the map or right above ur fps stats. And the alarm thing. Who wants to do an alarm every single time somethin is hacked and what if more than 1 thing is hacked at a time. And it would show up in everyone hud on the soi just not the squad.
i dont see y the devs could not put this in

Yeah, and /alarm isn't exactly user friendly

You gotta press the x each time, not press esc (this is a problem for those of us who like to turn their sensitivity way up for that UT-like sensitivity, but it makes navigating menus near impossible). You can only go by minutes and hours, and you gotta re-open the window to check time. plus if you didn't disable the warnings, they pop up at the most inopportune times.

Ah...I didn't even know about this feature...thanks...I will use it.

The only downside or area that isn't covered is that when you come into a base that is already hacked you don't know when it was started...so alarm won't do you any good then

Lets just put a ball above every base and when the clock gets down to ten seconds everyone starts counting down together. At the end of the ten seconds the ball drops and we all scream happy new year and kiss our spouses.

Then why not just make it so it automatically does it to make it easier for everyone?

Becouse everyone is too lazy to do it them selves. I can set a 15 minute timer 5 seconds.

But owuldn't it be nice if it just happened automatically? Woudl it really imbalanced the game that much?

Is it that hard to tap "Q" and move your mouse around for 30 secs!

when you're in the middle of trying to secure a base or take a tower or defend an AMS or destory a tank or anything of the sort, YES!

Plus the Alarm cant be very accurate for a few reasons.

1. Not many people stare at the map 24/7 some of us like 2 actually play
2. it takes a certian amount of time to set the timer so its not very accurate.
3. Its not very hard to set it up so a fukin timer jumps in the corner of ur screen.
4. The devs really cant be that lazy i mean it shouldnt be that hard 2 do so.

Ya but somethign so simple would take this dev team months to do.

[Hikowa]
