Re: Improved server info menu
How exactly would you be able to determine how much time is left in the match??
I dont see any way to implement this.

There's a clock in the game, on the upper right corner of the screen.llPANCHOll wrote:How exactly would you be able to determine how much time is left in the match??
It's set to 4 hours, I think, and very useful for calculating vehicle respawn times and JDAM countdowns.
A function to display the tickets for both teams would be a nice feature on te server selection screen.
Although I suppose when you join you could just tell your team how many tickets the enemy has...
Hmm, too Vanilla-ish.

Re: Improved server info menu
Think the standart timer for one round is 4hours. You can see remaining of it with "tab" or "enter" menu. Just next to the Ticket count and above the flag capture meter.

Re: Improved server info menu
The game works on tickets, and without showing tickets remaining, it would be difficult to estimate the amount of time left in any game, I suppose you could show how much time has elapsed to get an idea how far into the match it is, but determining how much time is left is impossible to determine.Sidewinder Zulu wrote:There's a clock in the game, on the upper right corner of the screen.

When is the last time you saw a match end because the timer had reached "0"??
And the devs removed the abillity to see how many tickets the enemy has for good reason.. Gameplay..
Gametracker show the amount of deaths each player has racked up, this is often a good way to estimate if the game has just started or is coming to an end.

For example :
UK Warfare Kashan desert 54/64 Time = 3:45 <- the game began 15mins ago..
So if i want to fly a jet, I can see that there is 2 mins left for them to spawn, and the chance of me getting one is small.

Re: Improved server info menu
I would like to know who's playing on the sever selected without having to click on the server details tab.
