Hello everyone.. Im not complaining its just the time on the MOUT McKenna server is 4 mins long a round someone said its to cut down on the camping, but if thats the case where do the campres go to play ;D i think camping is boring and not really for me so there for im SUGGESTING to up it to 6mins in that 2mins more, we can do loads more instead of the game being tied all the time....well not all the time but sometimes :tongue: Anyways just woundreing what people think on the 4mins being upped by 6mins. Thank you Lucas

I think Jeff(Peace) had it set like that just for some fun and when he does that he sets the ROE limit to 100. He just likes to change things up sometimes and not keep it at the same settings all the time. However, I must agree I prefer the 6 minutes more than anything. It's not my call, though.

It's supposed to be at 4 minutes, 100 ROE points, according to our latest reminders in the Server Admin area. If someone is setting it other than that, then they'd better have a good explanation for why they're violating the server admin policy. The main reason for only four minutes is that that is enough time for anyone to take all three objectives several times (in an ideal setting). Anything more than that only encourages people to hole up and waste other people's time. Yes, defense is important -- but both teams should not be defending at the same time. I've posted this before, but it's probably buried too deep to find now, so I'll say it again. At McKenna, when you're a couple of minutes into the round and your team has secured one objective, you can consider your team to be on defense (which doesn't preclude a strike at one of the other two objectives, but your main priority is protecting what you have, especially if there are only a couple of you left); however, when your team has secured two objectives, you're on assault, and you should act like it (by going after the third objective).

I actually like the 4 minute rounds, i can only play for a limited time and having so many rounds a lot more fun!

I like the 4 minute, Cause Like Peace said if you are far into a round with very few guys left and 1 obj safe you should be campin' it. So that 4 minutes cuts down on the campin' if its 1 on 1 which with 6 minutes if everyone dies bfore the 3 minute mark you gotta sit and wait forever.

She tells me that atleast twice a week :tongue: I am A hyper person I guess (Suprisingly I am pretty calm) But I am just not patient. I mean say I die about 60 seconds into the round. I have over 5 minutes of sitting time. Thats way ro much sitting time. I can eat and use the bathroom and still have time left when I get back. :wacko: So therefore I would prefur the time as is. :clap:

I think 4 minutes is a tiny bit quick, but also that the 10 minute rounds were too long. Personally I'd split the difference and go 5 minute rounds. That extra minute would make all the difference. Also, no care can be taken when attempting the last objective, time is always so short that it becomes a mad dash, no time to smoke one entrance and sneak in the other one for instance. Hence, last man standing on the team with 2 obj's would more often than not die! More fun when its like a chess game trying to outwit the opponent rather than beat him in a sprint.
Not that this ever affects me - all I do is use up opfors ammo so that my teammates get the kill (all heart eh!), that is - if I haven't already accidently wasted most of my team with dodgy grenades! :RIP: I'm ALWAYS dead within the first minute or so.

I like the 4 minute time. Creates a more intense game. Besides I'm usually saved by the bell.
Whatever it's at i will still have fun. But i like the pressure of 4 minutes makes me feel alive since I'm mostly dead if the game goes over 4. arrrrrrrr :bag:

Having said earlier 5 minutes, that just gives me more time for more roe's. Got shot while cooking last night (think it was Mountain in his church tower) and took out 3 or my team with it . So maybe if it could be reduced to about 20 seconds, my team should be safe - even I can't kill em in that time! I did leave quite quickly after though primarily through embarrassment :whistle: Graham
