Custom server postfixes, more clarity.

[Grobut]

Right now when you click on a "Custom" server in the server browser you basically don't know what to expect of that server in terms of gameplay, and to some degree this cannot be helped, but, it could atleast be telling us what it is a variation of.

What if instead of having just "Custom" written as the game-mode, we had "Custom-Realism", "Custom-Action" and "Custom-Classic" written there instead to show us what mode the server is a variation of?


We currently have three quite differen't game-modes, and some people prefer only one of two of them, or they might like them all but for different reasons and for when they are in different moods, so when you se a "Custom" server, and what you really want to play right now is Action, or Classic, do you join it? Or do you join the server next to it that is clearly marked "Action" or "Classic"?

You probably go with the one that is clearly labeled most of the time, because you know what to expect of that, and you know it's what you're in the mood for.

But if the Custom server was marked "Custom-Action", and you're in the mood for Action, then you'd probably be far more likely to give it a try..

Saying what it is a variation of and also listing the changed settings would be ideal imo.

It would be much better to know what mode those custom servers are based off of.

Right now seeing custom means absolutely nothing. Either leave it as Action, Realism, or Classic or do as Grobut said above.

I joined a very odd custom server today.

Had the damage system of Action, the movement speed and weapon handling of Realism, and the Compass from Classic. I was quite confused for a good five minutes on that one.
