v17 Feedback Thread Options

[Sando]

Hey guys,

Thanks for another LAN. We all really enjoyed ourselves, and we hope you did too.

We appreciate your feedback on how we can improve, so we ask for a brief summary on your thoughts on how we can achieve a better LAN.

We will be conducting an online survey in the coming weeks, and this will also have the door prize attached to it, but in the mean time, let your thoughts flow.

Thanks, and see you on October 9-10!

I have to say I really enjoyed the lan this time round

The hourly fun comps are great

I do have two suggestions however

First

The Respawn Notifier is a great idea, but perhaps what players also need is a similar system to advertise that they are running a particular game server. I read in this thread that that gamers had to walk around to see what other people were playing.

For example, if I were to run an Unreal Tournament server, but don't want to sit in the lobby waiting for someone to join, it would be good to be notified that people want to join it, but until I get a notification I can go about other things.

On the flip side, people register their interest in particular games and are notified that a server is running so they can join.

Does this make sense? Would you find this useful? A sort of game lobby/notifier so people know what's being played (besides CS).

I believe the current method is to announce over DC and hope it is noticed between the constant stream of nonsense and policy speeches by "Julia Gillard (PM)".

Second

My friend insisted we join in a CS team this lan. Our first match was against Sublime, and of course we got thoroughly beaten. I swear they had synchronised flashbangs. Anyway...

I second the idea of an "amateur" CS competition but with the following suggestions:

• No prize - competitive teams won't bother joining unless they really like fighting amateurs for no prize money.
• It is not organised by admins, but by the people who are interested in said amateur competition.

My $0.02 + GST.

Looking forward to the next lan.
