Last week, I made a new public mod which allowed players to spectate the game when they got eliminated, booted or surrendered. This was already revolutionary, since the mod would play spy cards for 'dead' players which was thought to be impossible.

Now I've taken it a step further...
If you were included in the game at any point before the game started, you'll spectate the entire game! To be able to spectate a game, you'll have to either be invited, declined the game or be removed by the host for that specific game.

Now anyone can spectate a game they want! Have a custom tournament? Add and remove all players that are out of the tournament to allow them to spectate the next games! Make players jealous because they were excluded from your game due to being to slow to join your game!

Btw, the name of this mod was The Dead Watches, it is now Spectator Mode

Yay!!! \●/

Nice!

That is really a great improvement for WZ

Noice!

Wow! Could this be provided for Clan League? Perhaps to late to be implemented this close to season kickoff...

In the past weeks the Clan League Panel has pruned down the list of nominations to templates that are possible for the CLOT to work with. That excludes templates with member-only perks like Commanders, Bomb Cards and Mods.

This was the statement of the Clan League Panel on mods :(

Also also, Spectator Mod should not be used for any formal competitive match because of its potential for cheating.

the mod would play spy cards for 'dead' players which was thought to be impossible.

Doesn't this mean that eliminated players have intel (spy card revelations) that the still playing players don't have? And could pass that onto the still playing players? Or someone joins the game with an alt but then declines, but plays with a main, then get intel from the alt?

yes, so with this mod gentleman rules apply, cause otherwise it just becomes a no fog game for everyone

Do gentlemen rules really apply to WZ games? lol

Seems like it'd just end up in arguments like "there's no way you could have won other than knowing where I was by cheating".

correct, but that argument already exists in every FFA, even in those without private chat enabled, so people need to stop complaining about it and just play 1v1 and team games only if they dont like other people "cheating"

I just provide the possibilities, the players should be responsible to use it all accordingly indeed. If they don't, then blocklist them so you don't play against them anymore
