Battlefield 4 Would you prefer the tower on Siege to stay up?

I propose a trial, before the 5v5 Domination that we do a trail and every so often it says come to
edge-gamers.com to voice your concerns about this new "No Levolution" Shanghai. We could then have a button to do a dropbox like commenting.

Maybe Remove Shanghai from the conquest rotation for this time period

We can do w/k/tb(for less than a day)
 
We did a Shanghai trail at 3am.

1500 tickets either team, the tower can go down. 1513 tickets and the tower went down. Up till 1600 tickets 3 pillars were up. A few hated it, some LOVED it. I think this was a interesting trail. This gives some information for the future, we need more discussions to fix any problems.

I think we should go with No Levelution, kicking and temp banning for it.

I do not think we should enforce this 24/7. Only allow admins to propose it an enforce it on a game-by-game basis. Binary came up with a great system IMO. If an admin wants to trial it, go for it keeping ticket balance in mind.
 
The dust sucks. I gotta tell ya, Binary and I did a test round last night. We told everyone to leave the tower up until tickets got to 1500. Everyone behaved, only one left and the round was very enjoyable and close in score.
 
Personally, I feel the game should play how it plays out. If the tower stays up; it's up. If it goes down' it's down.

Putting a ticket limit to changing how the round plays is not the best of ideas, i understand that it's an issue and can sometimes "ruin the round". BUT the levolution is there for a reason and whether it is triggered early or late, should not be controlled.

About the levolution? The game has been out for 3 years, everyone knows about the changing environments and how to activate them. Siege is just one of those maps where it will ALWAYS come down. Enforcing a rule to see the tower stay until a certain amount of tickets are left will surely see a hit in how fast we can fill the server.

We struggle enough as it is seeding our servers, so putting restrictions in place about how WE WANT the game to be played s surely going to effect our player count and regular players.
 
Not to mention the logical nightmare it will be for admins to have to hunt down each and every person that shoots at the tower before it is time for it to come down

Well said Beemer :)

We find it difficult enough hunting down names of those who violate our uncap rules :P
 
I found it quite easy during the test run and i even followed the guy around for about 30 tickets while he was taking down the tower. You can hear it and see what is taking it down most times.

By "What if they were wrong?", what if they wanted to make more of the map, and they didn't finish it.
 
There will be a Poll in place on Monday and you all can vote on it.

Thank you
 
I just played a game where i was totally get dominated by Lxix and wanted to take down the tower. But i used it to pull the gunner ship up while a tank could get b, then jumping down to b. While the C tower point was neutral.
 
I'm never able to snipe from the tower, but camping and setting claymores and shotgunning people coming up the elevators is fun. (I know, I'm THAT asshole.) Sometimes you get really good opportunities to C4 tanks and such. Parachuting from the tower itself will never get old.
It's also fun when you get in firefights on top. I don't really prefer it when it's collapsed because you can get shot from anywhere and never know where they were until you see the kill cam. But that's just me.
 
I just hope we get some of the public players voting on it, it we don't have some good regulars voting, then it wont really be the best. But, i can see what the community wants. Might have changed my mind a bit from a few days ago do to talking with some people.
