<div class="IPBDescription">... Honorable death</div>Ok so many people want the ability to vote surrender. I for one do not, at least not in that simple form. My reasons are simple I always play to win, and if the other team just quits it cheapens the victory.


My solution

team 1 votes surrender with >5/8(60%)... GAME DOES NOT END ... Now that surrender has been proposed team 2 can accept it or not. If 100% accept team 1 surrender then the game ends, if 50% accept surrender then 2.5 min timer is started but if no one accepts the surrender a 5 minute timer is placed on the game. (with the time varying inversely proportionally to the number of players who accepted).... When the timer runs out Team 2 still wins and team 1 still looses but team 1 receives "honorable death"

Rather then quitting when losing fight with honor and to the very end!

    If you don't let the losing team surrender, they'll either RR or leave the server instead.

    ^ this.

    surrender option is pointless since the game already allows you to do this. the only reason I could see this ever being applied is because of the retarded way auto-balance works where f4ing/quitting can actually prolong a game. yet why put a bandage when you can just fix auto-balance, it just becomes a great way to empty a server.
