Poll results : What if addonmakers used standardized values?

Here are the result of the latest poll, a total of 5914 votes were received, one of the slowest poll ever as Silent & Deadly described it.

The majority of visitors (70%) informed us that they think that addonmakers should use standardized armor and damage values in one way or another.

First ranked choice (32%) of the poll shows that almost a third of visitors still think it could and should be done now, while 21% think it’s actually too late to become a standard. 17% of visitors would like a total uniformisation of values, not only for armor and damage.

A total of 686 visitors (12%) did not understand the meaning of the question, which shows that there’s still a part of players that does not see the problem of mixing addons from different addonsmakers (in fact non standard values implicates that weak units in reality are sometimes more powerful in the game than supposed far stronger units, making the mission unplayable or totally unrealistic).

Only 5% of visitors think that the problem can be avoided by importing addons into mods, which will define and rework their values in order to match them with others units of the mod.

Finally 9% of visitors still prefer variety in gameplays, to not see all weapons handling rather similar for example, and 4% voted that it would never work as defining such values would be a nightmare.

In conclusion, we can see that more than 2/3 of the visitors wants to see standardized values for addons. Once again we can say it was a very instructive and interesting poll! You can discuss the results of this poll and make other conclusions in this thread!

The bar above the results with the little flags inside represent the percentage of votes cast from the different language sections.

The new subject is about our site, to know if you think that we should still cover Operation Flashpoint XBOX by posting news, articles about it or not.

Also, to finish on a quick side note, as we use an IP detection some people may not be able to cast a vote if someone used the same IP or proxy server’s IP before them.
