    That's such a nice way of saying that v8 release will take a bit longer XD.

    So. out of all of the coding in v8 will it have a spectator mode? It's been planned by MAIET since day one, like snipers but no one ever got it to work.
    Shouldnt this be relatively easy just by re purposing the /hide command GMs already use in combination of the VIP sort of code to join/watch full rooms.

    It will not have spectator mode.
    Although it may sound like a nice feature, it can also be abused in multiple ways. For example telling locations, HP/AP, etc.
    It's a terrible thing, I think, in life to wait until you're ready.
    I have this feeling now that actually no one is ever ready to do anything.
    There is almost no such thing as ready. There is only now.
    And you may as well do it now. Generally speaking, now is as good a time as any.

    We usually don't disclosure such information.
    Regardless, it's not likely that we'll push an update again until v8.

    That's because it is a nice feature, and fights get spectated more than you think. Specifically in 1v1s when people have to rejoin every round. If everyone already does it, theres no actual chance of it being abused any more than already possible, that's just a poor argument for declining it.

    In Gladiator there isnt any need to tell people where they are hiding because there is no hiding, everyone is out in the open on the same playing field. It may not be as common in gunning to 1v1 with an audience but its still a thing too. Spectator mode would be like duel mode already is, except no one would be joining into the fight. Do you see people abusing the duel mode spectator, or TDM spectator for joining a round? Rarely, if ever.
