We need monthly banns for non speaking people, trolls and toxic people.

There is no tool to get rid of people which joining the game to destroy gamplay experience. We should have one.

There won't be any players left, the numbers are dwindling as it is 😂 server admins can ban people for however long, Devs can't really do anything about it

[junior maple]

Thats what im thinking too. But it could be so easy to force the lazy people which always try to malke others to do the job, to force them into a working Squad Leader more and more often. But in the end of the day we won´t change that now maybe in 1000 years.

I can see more severe punishments for trolls and toxic people but not nonspeeking people. Some people are shy or are in a discord chat while they play HLL and affects their ability to hear commands. At the end of the day this is a game and some people just want have fun and not take things so seriously. Like Malachiya said, if we start punishing people like that then no one will be playing this game.

Okay i got your points and i also want to have fun. As someone who is willed to "sacrifice" himself every second round as a SL to be fair to the community. Give and take. My unit consists of non-speaking and shy people, good prerequisites for a team game I would say. It makes me look forward to the next round. I can only watch it with fun (irony). The gameplay is still fun, though, so it's all good.

Yep your right I'm sorry. If your want to win a game in HLL all 50 players have to be communicating. If one guy playing rifleman would rather talk to his friends in Discord then that match is lost. That guy should be kicked from the game, banned from the server, and have a one month ban on his account.

[junior maple]

Okay, our opinions totally differ here. I think it's not about winning, it's about having fun together and in my opinion that comes when people talk together and play together. Winning is not the focus, it's the fun of having some great moments together. Banishing someone is so hard. A temporary break would be much more humane, it would give you time to think about whether you should give something back to the people who organize the game for you so that everyone can have fun. But nothing is perfect. Sorry but i couldn´t resist. I think we both have our points her. World keeps spinnig.

Like you said, there are more than one way to have fun. I don't agree that you should be punished because you want to have fun in HLL without communicating with your squad. I agree that people using vital roles like engineer and squad leader while not communicating can be problematic but if your ever in a squad like that just kick the person or leave and join a squad or create a new one and have fun the way you like it. Don't punish people just because heaven forbid they have a social life outside of this game or might be a little shy. That kind of gatekeeping puts a sour taste in my mouth and I beleive would hurt this community more than it would help it.

If you simply want to socialize you can always go outside
@north ruin I am not trying to be constructive

[north ruin]

thats as constructive as OP's title @ember path destructive?

[prisma sphinx]

I barely use my mic and I contribute just fine, Probably more then people using a mic. How about we ban people who make dumb suggestion posts?

[calm ferry]

Communication is an important(!) and essential(!) part of the game! And there are no “ifs and buts” here! Players who can't handle this, for whatever reason, should play some other game where you don't have to talk. it's that simple

[woven dawn]

I'm not saying communication is not very important, I'm just saying that banning someone from the game for a month just for a lack of communcating is way over the line. This game is not even a true milsim.

[ember path]

Communication is not required for the majority of roles in hell let loose

[prisma sphinx]

You don't HAVE to talk in this game either, there are tools built into the game for non-speaking players to still provide info to their team. These are tools added and created by the devs, So the devs themselves disagree with you. That's it, case closed. Nobody is going to ban people for not speaking in a game where it's not a requirement lmao.

However, Admins on their own private servers can set whatever rules they want, and on their private servers they can create a no mic = kick/ban policy if they desire. (Their servers will die fast)

[calm ferry]

don’t worry, the new “developers” are already working hard on what you’re talking about and will turn the game into a „run & shoot bf“. but at the moment everything is as I already said, and there is nothing to argue about
