Rejected Mark Those Who have Tested as Innocent

So the tester on Nuclear gave me an idea.. For the maps that have T testers, make it to where whoever tests is automatically marked green on the scoreboard, and highlighted as an innocent, similar to how a Detective is always marked as such.

This would encourage more testing and make matches go a bit faster.

Like one in nuclear facility.

 

Imo this would put the traitors at a huge disadvantage. Paying attention and keeping track of who is/isn't proven is part of the fun. I think if any innocent could just test and automatically be marked as proven on the scoreboard this would take away a core element of the game. -1

 

Wouldn't this be extremely overpowered both for innos and Ts as it would make it so you don't even need to be near the tester since it would just mark it for you and give the Ts info on who is proven making it easier to know who to go after first. And it takes away any risk of being near the tester since you don't have to with this idea.

 

there needs to be more tests on maps with testers before this could be implemented, the problem simply is that different maps might act completely differently and cause issues with game balance, which already has enough issues atm.

 

This doesn't make sense to implement. Going to be a firm no from me.

This means that you could rush to the tester, test yourself, and suddenly you're innocent on the board. Even if no one was there to witness! Testing is already somewhat powerful, but it adds an interesting element to the game. Innos are forced to coordinate to successfully test, and a T could use it as a trap to kill people (bomb, etc.). Implementing a feature like this makes the appeal for a traitor even lower since players won't group up near testers.

Also - this adds an entirely new set of rule considerations. If someone were to get marked as innocent do they afford the same ruleset as a detective and can do no traitorous acts (aside from attacking someone)? Everyone knows for a fact they're innocent. It doesn't make sense. The current implementation works, let's leave it at that.

 

Only way I could agree with this if there was some easy way for traitors to mess with it, just so it's never a "100% proven" scenario

TTT is all about communication!

 

-1 for reasons mentioned above.

 

Nah, this would take 90% of the fun out of TTT. There is meant to be a level of skill had when playing the game, and this would make it way to easy for players. There would need to be unnecessary changes in the rules when we're all accustomed to the ones that already exist.

It's not worth it to me. -1

 

Although it would make life easier for innocents, the point of TTT is communicating, paying attention and applying discretion.

Honestly as much as - this is getting, I really wish this was atleast tested on maps like innomotel (and to be frank with little changed proven rules) where tester result can be manipulated with. I love the idea of 2 Traitors using tester together to be "proven" mechanic in innmotel but it really isnt worth going for since testing means 0. Also it would mean Ts have to do something instead of just using Deathstation in the T room and going for solopicks in random areas of map and then running back into T room.
Overall it would encourage people actually playing around testers even regulars who always refuse to test (which seems pretty funny since im pretty sure some of the downvoters are some of the people who always refuse to test but then argue TTT is about communicating and teamplay). Likewise it encourages innocents actually playing together, half of the regulars are just running around the map alone hoping to catch a T shooting another loner with no care for teamplay to begin with.

We already have this mechanic halfly in atomic and it hasnt been a problem.

Or you can just buy detective, be innocent on the board, have choice of armor/health station, possible safe rooms, DNA scanner or radar.
I really do not understand this argument, assuming this goes live on modded like half of the server usually has donator rank and can buy det cheaply every single round no matter what to begin with.

I do assume this has like 0.01% chance of going through especially since testers can be broken preround so 1/2 time there even is no chance to even play around tester mechanic, but I think it would had been a neat idea to atleast try out on certain maps like innomotel(not all of em).

 

Like the others mentioned, this goes against the very concept of TTT. Not going to happen, in afraid.

Thanks for suggesting.
