Shorten Round Time

**conductor** · 01-04-10, 12:33 PM

I think shortening the round to 2.30 will help a lot. It speeds things up so people don't have to wait as long if they rush and die first. But then it puts a little more importance onto the t's to get to sites to plant, but it still gives them over a minute to slow play if they chose. Just not 2 minutes anymore lol. Also it gives the opportunity for more rounds on top 5 and css reg since map rotation is based off of time. Vote yes.

I tend to agree, but I feel that there isn't a HUGE difference between 2:30 or 3 minutes. Even at 2:30, it gives teams plenty of time to slow play and work picks....but if you guys feel that those 30 seconds will provide a few more rounds, then I'm all for it.

IMO, it's not really gonna make a lick of a difference.. Now, an extreme server with like 60 seconds on the clock would be kind of exciting..

We should have one server with 45 second rounds...WEEE!

I vote no, round times are just fine.

Voted Yes.

I completely agree with conductor. Decreasing the time will fasten the pace of the game and make it less boring in the situations where T's use up almost the ENTIRE 3 minutes to camp their damn spawn. It still allows T's to slow play (not camp for 3 minutes) with a good minute & 1/2 and still be able to make it to a site and plant. I think this would be a good idea to test out. Just see how it plays out and if it makes any improvements/changes to the server and the playing style.

No harm in trying...?
