About the QM role and decisions

[canaca]

I have faced a couple of situations where the QM was prioritizing and sending all the resources to one FOB and not sending anything to the rest because he and his friends thought that was the priority and therefore the map was lost. I would like to note that the role of a good QM is to manage and distribute resources evenly to any FOB or TH requesting them. To send all the resources to only one point, you don't need a QM. Do you agree?

Just ignore him and use weapon factory in other town instead. QM role is a made up thing.

Go place an order at the HQ wf, this guy cannot deny you from playing a game you purchased.

I get your point. When you are trying to play a serius game of Foxhole you need organisation. A bad QM can ruin an entire game. And no you cant simply go ahead and build stuff just becuase your angry at the QM. Yes you bought this game but this game is completely built on one thing COOPERATION. If the QM is not filling his shoes. Simply vote/place annother one. I get your frustration but going rough will not help you win the map.

Let the QM wait 7 min for your order, who cares it's not the end of the world. QM are so full of themselves.

7 Min can mean all the difference in holding a town or FOB.. The QMs are needed and the dev should make it a real position imo.

People like you are actually the reason most games are lost. People just don't listen each other and think they are the best themself and everyone should follow.

If it's a bad QM, tell the others and ask for a different one. But if you are going to troll the QM it's helping no one.

Exactly.. Dont be a tool because stuff takes time. You bought a cooperative military game.. What did you expect?

You guys do what you want, I'm not listening to some QM who thinks they're boss.

Nah, just use the building most convienient to you.
Ya notice that the devs took the time and effort to put locks on trucks, not facilities.
I suspect it wasn't an oversight.

Ayup.
Ya want tin-pot dictators calling the shots?
Try "Savage: Resurrection".
It is on Steam.
Game that died not once, but twice.

People who play "QM" act like they are gods, aggravating players who have just a little bit of self respect. I saw at least 5 different guys got shot simply because they were near the factory area. That's just ♥♥♥♥♥♥. They also roleplay too much.
All you need to do is keep those orders roll nonstop and organize things inside crates, that's all. Logi drivers who constantly deliver stuff to the front knows better than any QM what is needed there.

Honestly, all those QMs could use their organizational skills to lead people into battle, Frontline need a lot more organization than placing orders in queue.

Some QM do that, most that I have played with are just trying to keep up with the requests.
Though the few that are that way (despots) make an impression that far outweighs their numbers.

Vote kick the attackers, or at least get their handles recorded with a reprimand. Then report the incident to the Moderators.

As near as I can tell, leading people takes a different skill set than lining up crates.
Crates don't have minds of their own.

This game isn't a military simulation, there isn't hierarchy. You only will work for the QM if you want to. If you disagree you can just go lone wolf and make your own stuff or , ( what is better) work with a little squad.
You have to use communication as part of your strategy.Try to convince the others to follow your ideas. Hearts and minds. That's the key.
Even if you're the new Napoleon if you don't have followers all your military strategy will be useless.
Communication guys! Talk, discuss, think togheter... that's the way to maintain this game alive!

well most of the time i play as the QM, just to help the team. Or if they ask if some one want to do it, then i sacrifice myself to do the boring work, that no one wants to do. I mean, i will stand in the factory for 5-8 hours, while crafting weapons, mortars, support items and such. And tell the driver, where to deliver it, and report in chat if they lost the truck or delivered the supplies. Hell i even ask for status reports, on TH and FOB to know what they need, and predict what they will use. And ask some of the logistic players, to craft medical supplies shirts and such, if i cant do it myself. But yeah thats what i think, i love to play as QM. Its rare that i shoot some one in the factory area, but when i do its either because they steal Emats. Or try to troll/greif the QM, but i always ask them or warn them, before i will shoot and then i can trust them more or not.

So you engage in actions that the devs specifically banned cuz some people don't do what you want?

Ya don't like them talking back to you?
Tough.
Grow a skin.
Better yet, use the tools the Devs gave you to turn off their speech/text to you.
For most of us, people we can't hear aren't quite as annoying.


Ya don't like them taking stuff from a common use area?
Pity.
The Devs put locks on trucks, not boxes.
I suspect that was intentional.
Ya think they are taking stuff to grief?
Reprimand them to get a record started, and then report them to the Moderators.

Don't break the game rules just cuz people annoy you.
That makes you just another griefer, albeit one who provides a more elaborate excuse for bad sportsmanship.

I am noticing some disturbing comments, I want to clear something up.

the QM is just like any other player and he has to follow the rules of conduct. that means
1. he can not teamkill
2. he can not limit acces to production buildings or resource sites
3. he is not allowed to steal either.

and the same rules work the other way around.
YOU are not allowed to steal from the QM, his QM station, the logistics vehicles he is using, and teamkill him.

that means this:

is considered stealing from the QM station, wich is not a common use area for the record.
