Binge and Grab
not hiding or heaven forbid dropping the flag off the side of the building.
Haters gunna hate. :>
That tactic actually hurts more then it helps most of the time. Drop flag of side the second the other one returns. No 5 second cap for you :< -
12 years agoLevel 10Keep in mind that most players who are relatively new or even medium skills players do not make all the jumps that some of you guys do. They still take the arrow to the garage, land on truck, maybe scope out things while they grab a breath, and then go back to base. Or they go the doom route. A low time would eventually discourage newer players and the population of the server would fall off.

Level 8that is a very good point for 90% of the time when non pros are playing.

I am the nice one.Level 10The hot potato timer only starts when both flags are taken. Non pro superman players are usually not hiders or keep away tacticians, so the 2 min has no bearing. It's a style of play that people adjust to.
Frankly this poll is unnecessary. I only set it to 2 minutes for a change of pace. We can set it back and forth and try different things. We don't need a resounding poll of permanence to determine the final hot potitty time.
I had already put it back to three minutes before this thread started, but because it wasn't written to the config file, it reverted back. I'll check with the powers that be, learn how to do it properly and the problem will be solved. And then, when I'm on, we'll set it to 5 second hot potitty.
I feel the need! The need for speed! -
12 years agoLevel 10i got no problem with letting them grab a breath, but 4 mins enough to grab a beer, your crotch and a slice of pizza !
-
12 years agoLevel 10I never meant for the outcome of the poll to be a permanent answer. Just thought it might be nice to get some feed back/input from the players.
-
12 years agoAdminI think the poll served a good purpose in finding what the players opinions were. As requested the map cycle file has been updated to use 3 mins. If you guys want 4, as the poll suggests, let me know.

Level 7two min hot poratos was such an advantage to the experienced "self proclaimed" pro's that it drove off new players. No wonder they were for it. The server is already showing more life after the change to 3 min.
-
12 years agoLevel 8Honestly with such a big map and so many places, you really do not want anything more then 3 min. Makes for a very slow game.
Oh and lol to whoever changed the cap limit to 21!
We hit 20 the other day and right as we capped I left my pc, got a drink, came upstairs to my pc only to see we lost 21 - 20!
OMFG!
