Just make it so 3/4 people have to press the button to call back the drop pod, send back the mine head, whatever. Just make it so the majority say yes before leaving. Nothing more annoying than missing out on so much loot and exploration because someone just wants to go.
External link →All the arguments on how we could overcomplicate this when the system works fine as it is. If you don't want the button pressed, there's voice, there's text chat. Why the heck would we want to re-code the game to fix a non-problem. What you would see with a "vote" system or "host only" system is missions that take 20 minutes stretching into forever killing your XP potential or just never ending. Yep, so occasionally someone pushes the button early. It's a coop game. People make mistakes. Redesigning a simple, straightforward game mechanic because you had a couple of experiences that you don't care for is silly. This extends to almost all games. Someone has a bad mission, closes out the game all huffy and pissed off and immediately goes to the forums saying how the game needs to be "fixed"
This. There’s no good, simple approach to having a votes with such a small max player count. Communicate with each other and be in the mindset that whoever pressed the button might have dinner getting cold or a house fire they need to take care of.
