PLEASE PUT A CAP ON CLASSES.

[Tommywx 1]

Hello, lotusclan.

 

I've recently been playing your TF2 Lotusclan Dustbowl French server,and I love it.

 

But there has been a growing problem recently -- Classes.

 

Occasionally, I'll join a game and be placed on a team, and 4 - 5 classes are snipers and spies. And I'm just like "Wtf is this shit?" Then after a few frustrating rounds I leave because our team is so bad. And it's not just snipers, When I get placed on blu sometimes there will be 3 - 4 engineers and it is a royal pisstake.

 

I strongly reccommend a Class cap,because when half your team are snipers, then your team isn't gonna do very good, and it's going to ruin the entire experience.

 

Anyway thanks for reading, i strongly hope you'll consider it.

It might be annoying to you when a team has 6 snipers and spies, but it's team fortress for a reason. Half the fun is convincing those people to switch. Servers like kill-streak.net have class caps on every class, and it's annoying because the persons taking up that slot might be the worse spies in the history of mannkind (not a typo) and the difference of winning the game might be you being that extra spy. Yes there might be 4 of you now but still. Most people will switch out of a support class if you start getting pounded. Now you can exploit it by once we joined a server and convinced everyone to go engi and build in intel. We ended up having a wall of dispensers and a wall of teles and than sentry guns everywhere. It was still amazingly fun even though we had 14 engis.

This is my view and in no way do I represent the clan's view

 

My response?

 

NEVAR! MUHAHAHA

 

Thank you, that's all.

But to add a serious response:

 

I believe we don't do caps because we want to keep the servers as vanilla as possible so they're picked up? Though I do understand your frustration with it. I've often been on the offensive with 4-5 engies. I understand 1 or 2 but still. Same on 2Fort when you see a shitload of snipers on your team and then complain they're getting spawncamped.

 

Some people don't get the idea behinf "Team" Fortress.

The answer is always the same. No!

Unics, I see you have been reading up on threads in Lotus from up to 4 years ago. That is some serious initiative. Can't wait to see you as a recruit. I feel you are going to fit in swimmingly!

I've only been here five months but still when I saw this my first thought was "Is it time to say no to another request for class caps already...it's only been a couple of months hasn't it?"

Thank you chez box

 

Luop, I understand your point completely, but it's no fun when you're team is getting slaughtered because 50 % are snipers.

 

This is a teamplaying game, 50% team play, and 50% having fun, right?

 

Well the 50% of the snipers are completely limiting the chances of having fun because the other team are soldier spamming and obliterating us.

 

Maybe not a cap on every class, but maybe a 3 sniper limit? I don't see as much spy spam, or scout spam for that matter.

Thanks, we appreciate you taking the time to come here and try and help us improve our servers.  Lotus doesn't like telling players how to enjoy TF2.  We encourage people to play how they want as long as it's sole purpose isn't to disrupt other players.  If we restricted letting people play what they want, then we are detracting from the experience designed by Valve.

 

Also, the quality of the player is much more important than the class they choose.

 

The answer will remain no for now.

 

Thanks again!
