Recently, a change was made to the vote parties on infection that rewards armour and weapons instead of levels. After unscramble the word was nerfed and now this, it is too tedious to grind for prestiges and not worth it in general as the first two prestiges are practically useless. This was probably done because people afked to get the rewards but this affects all other players too. Bring back old vote party rewards (1-5 levels of xp). No one complained about the rewards. Bring this back but add an afk timer.
oh, alright... Yeah support, this really sucks. (I can't actually rate it i dont have enough messages)
No support. Going afk all day should not be the way you level up. Vote parties have never been apart of infection before and everyone was fine with that. You should level up by getting kills and being the last one alive, not just logging in and never actually playing. You log in and play for an hour and gain 4-5 levels then find out that there was a vote rty 30 seconds before you logged on and a bunch of people get 5 levels for their "strategy" of being AFK all day. Vote parties are just for people too lazy to play the game the way it was meant to be played.
Well Crew (and the team) just implemented this, so I doubt they'll revert it unless people really strongly protest against it. I'll just add my voice here that nerfing VPs is not the best idea. UlTiMaTeLy this boils down on who you want to satisfy. Do you want the new players to join Infection and simply get owned by campers on their first game, and leave? Or would you like to cater to the old players and let them get their prestiges back easier (to kill the aforementioned campers, thereby progressing the game faster)? --- I'll leave you with this. Think about poor Alex who joined the game 5 minutes ago. Do you think Alex is going to stay in the server long without the free kills, or free vote party levels? Would Alex like to be killed by campers every game if he's a zombie?
