vote kicking hackers/bots

(smartIsland) #1

Can anyone help identify why it is so difficult to kick hackers, xp bots programmed to stand in place and continuously jump and afk players? In wolf and quake wars I am pretty sure I remember hackers and annoying players and afks almost being instantly kicked. Everyone voted and it 90% of the time worked. In dirty bomb it fails about 99% of the time… Why

Your average consumer of F2P games is just simply too stupid to know how to vote. During my 400+ hours of DB I have seen a grand total of one votes that has actually passed.

Why can it not be like other SD games and let people on both teams vote and have a lower majority needed. Saw an 8v8 vote last night 6 voted to kick the bot, obv the bot autovoted no and someone else, prob the person running the bot voted no, so no kick. 6 vs 2 = no kick… I mean how realistic is it to expect every person on a team to have to vote against the one person to succeed

FIX THE VOTE KICK. IM SICK OF HACKERS NOT BEING ABLE TO BE KICKED. In a 7 v 6 match, a 6v1 vote kick failed on a hacker. Thats bullcrap.

Vote kicks rarely fail for me because I shove my mic down my throat and tell people to press F1 in game.

Can I ask what the criteria is for someone to be kicked? We had a guy micspamming - vote kick ensued yet still failed to kick as I don’t quite think everyone voted. I assume there needs to be a certain number of people voting for it to work?

The amount of people need is different depending on how many people there are. I don’t know the exact numbers, but the blue bar at the bottom needs to fill out.

EDIT: Also, you could have just muted the guy.

We did… he was a bit of a troll in-game though and someone put forth the vote kick. Cheers for the response though.
