Title: Spectator Mode
Post by: showman13 on February 07, 2014, 11:39:48 PM
I think it would be interesting if people can view matches. Instead of battling, users can click on the room and have the option of viewing the battle. It would also greatly help new users to see the game and to get feedback from experienced users.

Been suggested a ton of times, even as far back as BOTS!!. Its either not possible or it would simply be too hard to make and/or not worth the time. It would be a really great feature though, as long as the room master can enable/disable spectators (so he/she can have some privacy).

Would kinda me like League of Legends (LoL). But would be way to hard to implement and not that useful. Therefore i would have to say -1.

Yes, this has been suggested several times now.  :P

In the old bc I think I actually suggested it myself. It seems dumb for the average player, but for video content it would open up a world of creative possibilities.  Too bad it won't ever be done :3

Er scratch what I said before (if anyone saw it).

-1. Would be evasive of peoples privacy unless there would be some way to make it so no one can spectate.

For PvP just suicide, for Sector, just suicide (however it inc mob hp), or watch a video of them. As for BvB you could do both, however you inc the hp of your teams base, and can only view the team your on. However there is a "incomplete" (or so called) observer mode, in BvB back from bots!! Dunno what Kenny could do, but there could be a 3rd team, meant for observers, in which case you start out dead, and can observe all the players. However you could end up being a snitch and relay the info the a team. There are some games, that save a recording (up to x games) for each fight that happens, (ex: GA2) that you can view in a list.  ::)

yeah, everyone already knows that

obviously those options are there but isn't it pretty clear that the OP is looking for a better way? You know.. like.. a spectator mode?

Why is everyone always saying "privacy privacy" you can disable the words.
we had a spectator mode suggestion against hackers, Selene or Allie (as I remember) said it would be inappropriate considering it will take his privacy.
THE MAN WONT TALK TO HIMSELF IN HIS OWN ROOM AND ESPECIALLY WON'T CHAT TO HIMSELF!
so yeah, even though he won't we could disable the words.


+1 to the suggestion and we could make a "limit" of spectators..

Staff will probably use this to spy. It just seems like if this was implemented, it would be more work than the benefit it gives. Literally there is a suicide button...and I don't think anyone cares about their rank.
I don't get your point..
