Squad icon for showdown deathmatch winner.

Lynx · 12-30-2012

Just got a new update. Title explains most of it.
Whoever wins showdown, their squad logo will be displayed and clickable on the map until a new winner.
Comments? I think this is good in enforcing squad importance in zone but showdown was more of a solo type of game and is now probobaly going to face more squad "teaming" in the arena. Good or bad? You decide.

i actually dont get why the squad logo? the squad has nothing to do with the showdown, it should rather be the players head&hat being displayed as that would make more sense imo

I understand exactly where you are coming from but since i've seen all the emphasis from staff members about squads playing a major role in zone it only figures. This it their first major step besides missions to give squads actual things to "do". This is, also, the first step in zone to spark rivalry between squads as they will compete to try to "own" (or whatever you want to call it) the showdown arena.

So that means squads need to play showdown

If a squad teamed up in showdown, it would be devastating.

its not like squad vs squad's, its player vs player's. it has nothing to do with squads, therefore the logo shouldnt be related to squads. like i said there should be the players head and hat displayed (maybe with a "link" to the players profile if you tap it) or like a personal emblem from the player

I personally don't like the teaming that is now taking place. Getting too many reports about Admira now.

Yeah I think the logo thing is enforcing teaming, and I've seen a lot of it recently
