Can someone with the game whose played MP please comment on the following:

:: Is there an ingame scoreboard (like FC1) and if so what info does it show (kill/death/ping, etc?)
:: Please expand on WHAT needs to be done with the server browser to improve it.
:: Can you set a ping limit when hosting a game?
:: What admins options are available in game? (ie: kick/ban/force team switch/change map, etc)
:: How does the vote system work in FC2 MP? Can you raise a new vote if a vote is already in motion? (its what dickheads use to do to stop them getting kicked off public servers whilst they tk'd - constantly raised votes)

By strafing i meant sprinting side to side , atm you can't do that ( don't know if it's actually a issue , cos in cod4 its pretty much the same. Also after playing a bit I already got kinda used to server browser. Not that bad after all, bigger problem is lack of the server atm.

Now answering T-bag's questions :

- You have the scoreboard, there you can see your XP, Kills, executions ( for example how many diamonds you have captured) , but the problem is you can't see your ping ! only place where you can see it , is server list before you have entered the game

- Well, It is console browser atm, you can't see all servers at the same time, you can see them only by mode.. But, its not vital, ingame ping is more important. Also getting kicked after every round of RANKED match is annoying, luckily you can play unranked... Ranked system is annoying in more ways, for example you can't join game in progress, ( you can do it in unranked )

- No idea, i havent tried to host,

- You can vote for New captain in UPrising, SKip map, kick, ban, change map.. You can do it through menus, so not necessary to know console comands. No idea if you can start vote while another one is still active

-----------------------------------

New wishes from pusher :

Where is config file? ATM you can't bind your keys, so if you play on numpad, you cant bind buttons....

From me :

Spectator camera is static atm.. so you cant follow the game, for example clan match or record a video...

--------------------------------------

Yea and most important, more i play , more i actually like it... we really need to get something like FC1 Community server, for old clan players to chill together

P.S good topic started --> wishes for update, http://forums.ubi.com/eve/forums/a/tpc/ ... 2821060796 , guy has pretty much the same issues in mind

be able to change teams during a map when they are off balance. Don't think that is possible as it is now :cry:

Auto balance would be better, because if you make it optional people will always leave the smaller team for the bigger :x

Plus show reasons for kicks from servers
mixu

There is autobalance, at least there is a filter for it.. but yea you can't change team by your own, eee , clan games?

Hmm sometimes when i am trying to join server It kinda freeze on loading screen, only loading, and nothing happen...

BTW you also can't ALT TAB whicn is gay

Do you guys know, what is the deal with UBI official servers? In far cry 1 we still have like 20 of them... They are really needed as atm there are only 30% of servers dedicated...

You can 'force launch' in the server options - so you dont have to wait for everyone to ready up.

The 'kick everyone from the server at the end of the map' issue appears to be a design flaw in ranked servers.


Edit: Thanks Mixu for the info in your last post :)
