12 years agoLevel 10As you know...for a long time the time limit was 6 minutes. This has been reduced to two. Just wondering how you all feel about it.
-
12 years agoLevel 10I say 3 or 4 =)

12 years agoLevel 10I didn't like it at 2 minutes at first but I kind of like it now. Games feel like they go a lot faster and the team that is winning can't just hide the flag and drag the match on until they win.

12 years agoLevel 10It's tough, as different games demand a different time, which is of course impossible! I chuckled that 6 minutes wasn't given as an option in the poll, but having given 2 mins a chance I do agree that shorter than 6 mins would work, as low as 2 mins does take something away from the game though - it was designed as a huge map with a few hidey holes on purpose of course.

Level 10I have been enjoying the 2 minute potato lately, but I think it can be more a function of how many players are on each team.
When the server is full or nearly so, the short potato time keeps the game moving fast. (sometimes too fast perhaps)
And when teams are say 4vs4 or fewer, there is less boring standoff time.
Unfortunately, when teams are mid-sized, two minutes often isn't quite enough time to track down the flag.
My vote:
2 - 7 players in server = 2 minutes
8 - 13 = 3 minutes
14+ = 2 minutes -
12 years agoLevel 10That would be nice but I don't think it's possible
-
12 years agoLevel 10I've seen stuff similar to that done on some other servers. The timelimit/caplimit would change based on the number of players. I think they did it through b3, but i'm not sure.

12 years agoSat Dec 24 2011, 02:03AMLevel 8i agree with risk too, and i also can't imagine b3 would have trouble with doing that. i'm pretty sure i could make a plugin to do that if one doesn't exist.
(i do like the short time on what would otherwise be boring "no real action" matches.)

12 years agoLevel 103 minutes.
enough for one side to get a safe place for it and for the other team to track it and get it back.
2 mins too short for newbies, bad jumpers and BanMe's.
4-5 minutes could be much too long if people start playing 'doorgames' - hiding behind doom or anywhere.
