Petition to make Brooms invisible in flying
- Declined
- Thread starter Lizzie
- Start date
I believe that the reason that this has not been added is because it makes the game feel less multiplayer when you can't see where people are. I think it has been suggested before that people are invisible for the first 10 seconds or so, which is when they are in the way the most, but I don't think people will become completely invisible for the whole thing.
I agree! Also to add on as to why brooms should be invisible, here's a reason as to why them being visible is frustrating:
-Makes it difficult for games that have 4+ players
-Makes it difficult for newer flyers to improve (they're not familiar with the courses so they might get disoriented when they crash)
-Causes lag
-Prolongs games
-Frustrates players
It should definitely be optional though. I know servers like the Hive have some options for their mini games where you can make players transparent (Death Run) and I think that should suffice. As someone who plays flying a lot, it can be really annoying tailing someone the whole game and not being able to pass them bc they obstructed your view and you crashed. Also ik it's annoying to crash as a newer player bc four people tried to go through a hoop at the same time. Flying is a very competitive game, and this can offset players completely. Stuff like this is frustrating, and might just put people off the game completely. If that happens, then less people will be playing flying, then no one's having any fun.
Anyways, sorry for the ramble. I agree with your idea Lizzie

A transparent option for it would be great, but to keep it with the same feel that flying has, which I love I think maybe having people in an invisible mode for the first 5 to 10 seconds of the game would be the best as an obstruction in vision is most present through the first few hoops and then it tends not to be an issue anymore and will keep the multiplayer feel to it.
