Spectator mode on same IP

Post by BLiNNeMaNS »

Please leave out spectator mode on same IP (online)
It's the same reason as mediatracker cutfixes don't work:
As a lot of people got 2 pc's at home nowadays, spectator mode can kinda ruin the game.
(use the spectator mode on pc2 to see past corners/hidden people while using pc1 to control)

As bad as ghosting is, there is a much better alternative to simply blocking out same IP connections. That especially gets messy when two different people on the same IP are playing on the same server - locking out functionality because of that causes nothing but strife.

One good alternative to solving the issue of ghosting perhaps is putting a small delay on the spectator mode - through a replay system which I am assuming we are getting - of around 30 seconds or so could easily alleviate the issue of ghosting without locking out functionality to players in certain situations.
