[Infection] Poll/Suggestion

With the recent updates to the infection gamemode the most noticeable change made are the zombie skins for those who are infected. But there's a huge problem with these skins; no player nametags.

Before this update I, nor anyone else in the community had issues with 3rd party client users coming in and ruining the game for everyone in ridiculous ways, and get away with it. Because there are no nametags associated to the dead players the new meta seems to be using combat hacks to bring players down to low hp and let someone else finish them off as to not be caught by the in chat message "Oh noes! Player1 was devoured by Player2. Watch out!"

This makes it an absolute pain to record anyone cheating now, and pretty much impossible in a few scenarios such as a client user toggling Speed mine to hit you through walls and ceilings of structures (I know I am not the only person to have been killed this way).

Example video:


So I offer three suggestions for you to poll on that could help fix/decide on this issue.

1. Go back to no skins for the infected.

Pros:

• Players can see everyone's skins and names
• We already know how to play the game of trust/betrayal with OP zombies
• Easy to record evidence against those that can't follow simple rules

Cons:

• Lose the nice skins for infected players
• Infected players lose the advantage of stealth (no nametag)
• Cyp and Tanner's time put in to adding this goes to waste

​

2. Add nametags to skinned, infected players.

Pros:

• Infection keeps its nice skins to identify who is dead/alive
• Players can see everyone's nametags
• Easy to record evidence against those that can't follow simple rules

Cons:

• Zombies again lose the advantage of stealth (no nametag)

​

3. Leave it how it is (as stands)

Pros:

• Zombies keep their nice skins and advantage of stealth (no nametag)

Cons:

• Players continue to deal with the struggle of recoding players who are cheating

No support. if zombies gets nametags then everyone will quit mineverse..

My friend's uncle had his own infection server, zombies had no nametags but then he added it so zombies got nametags and then everyone quit..

 

Support for number two.

 

Support for number 2. So many hackers and no one can report them due to not having a gamer tag.

Support, also, there's a glitch where some zombies have human skins and some humans have zombie skins. This can confuse the players.

Support for suggestion 2!

 

Support for 1 and/or 2.

 

I supported for suggestion 2

 

Support for #2

 

A great idea just popped in my mind.. When either a human or zombie. You have 2 different like classes for each. (make em up) You can slowly upgrade those classes and become better!

Such as for humans, Defensive or attack.
