1 dretch blocking = 5 aliens tied up

Dretch was standing in the corner where my crosshair points and was IDLE player.

He was blocking a way out for 2, then 3 dretches and one granger. Plus me (dretch).

Total of later 5-6 players tied up for around minute

I thought it was recording this, but turns out not really, so just made this screenshot post-factum, but you can try it yourself, 1 dretch in that spot really messes up game, if one of eggs is there

Next time put better screenshot. I mean from third person. As I told before, eggs have anti spawnblock protection so its weird that situation like this happened...

I don't want to be nasty.. but what is the funny point in someone blocking his team and then failing it ?

Nod : I think that this dretch was not on the egg, but on the corner shown by the mark on the middle of the screen.

Yeap as VAL said. I was on egg, and ~1 in front was the dretch. Blocking waay out of this micro tunel with egg, not the egg itself.

Maybe we should have an callvote to spec someone on a team.
Or maybe when Im saying "kick XYZ he is blocking spawn" 5 times Im not making shit up and it coulbe help to call a vote

(eventually someone did on the team )

It was sort of funny

Indeed. Or a vote that would forbid a player to spawn for 1 minute for example, and the reason of the vote spammed on his screen.
Example : If someone keeps building telenodes/eggs that are feeding the opposite team, his teammates might call such a vote, and he would have something like 'STOP BUILDING BAD PLACED/FEEDING TELENODES/EGGS' on his screen for 1 minute.

What do you think of this idea ? Of course, it's just a drafting

Or just better player vs player physical interactions.

RCZ has automatic idle player removal, currently set at 5 minutes. Players who fall foul of this end up spectating.

Unvanquished takes this further. You can call a vote to put a player on spectators. The player cannot join a team for the rest of the game.
