Start Countdown

from AshesoftheSingularity Forums

Hi.

This is an issues I have with multiplayer.

After a Ranked game is loaded, it still takes my card about 3-7 Seconds to render the map.

That can be a problem in Multiplayer, as this time is sometimes crucial to captureing 2 terretories.

A simple countdown of 5 or 10 seconds before the game starts would fix this, and it also gives the player the time to mentally prepare.

It would be nice, if you could do something about this, cause you are simply at a serious disadvantage, if you fail to capture a terretory.

Agree.

Game should start, map load, get the Thumbs Up from both players's computers - meaning all is loaded and good to go - then initiate countdown of 5 to 10 seconds.

Please also account for the zoom to the Nexus at the beginning if this is going to be done. Game should only starts when you can actually control / select units.

The 10 sec Start Cool-down is a good idea.
