Adding low tickets warning (siren) to 100, 200, 300 ... tickets

I believe it's important that the team gets more notifications about the way its tickets are going down. So I propose we add a sound warning like the siren (it could be something else) each time the tickets reach those numbers : 100, 200, 300, 400, 500, 600, and 700.

This way, the players will evaluate more easily the way their tickets are going down, and will be able to make better decisions depending on the situation at the right moment.

I dont really think we need a siren (or another notification) every 100 tickets, but a siren BEFORE 10 tickets would be very useful, maybe at 100 tickets so the team can actually try to save some tickets.

No need for this. People should keep track of tickets themselfs.

Honestly, if this was added, I would never play Project Reality again.

Maybe when 50 tickets are left. Increase give up time.

You can press caps lock and see the tickets you know?


And some maps start with 700 tickets. Why would I want a air raid telling me that we have 500 tickets left?

Yes you would.

+1. Rounds can be pretty long and people loose the focus, a warning when falling below 100 tickets might works as wake-up signal. And the 10 tickets siren is pretty pointless since most rounds are over when one side has only 10 tickets left anyway.

Every 100 tickets seems excessive. But putting it at 50 or 100 instead of 10 might be a good idea, since the warning at 10 tickets is rather meaningless indeed. Unless the game is an extremely close call.

I admit having a warning each 100 tickets is a bit excessive and might become irritating.

Moving the existing warning from 10 to 50 or 100 sounds fine to me.

We should just change the warning signal from that siren to something else. Maybe a little warning on your HUD or a quieter less annoying sound. That way it wont be a big deal. :)

Admins get a 'low ticket' warning when a team falls under a pre determined value.

Admins can then choose to spur on their team?

A lot of things WERE in PR for sometime and were scrapped. Out with the old, and in with the new lol :) No, I personally think the current system is fine. Anyone who is truly immersed into PR knows to hit caps lock often to check ticket count in a close battle.

I think 50 is a good number for a siren.

I honestly think that tickets should not be visible to anyone along with no siren.
People would take more care with their movement, and their assets, and just maybe.... the game would play alittle better in my opinion. :D

If it was at every 100 tickets then no.

But I would play it every other month. :P

I like 50 tickets. People have time to realise they shouldn't give up and do silly assaults which may allow them a last fighting chance to win.
