Things that need/ought to be changed on the server

[Dr Sadako]

Good point, Killhouse might need to go as well?

Thoughts?

The good things about them are that you will level quickly. Could be good if we bring in lots of new players.

Kill house works really well 1v1 or 2v2. so I would leave it on the server, but remove it from the day to day rotation.

I haven't been removing any maps, just editing the mapcycle

We need more than 16 slots on the server. Some of the maps are quite big and holds easily 10-15 players per team. I was on a server yesterday with 40 players and it didn't seem that crowded actually.

We've already discussed this in Section Admin forum. It was felt that, as with CS, too many players spoils our playing style.

how do people feel about enabling the killcam? It basically lets you see how you died so can be a useful learning tool for newcomers to the game.

I bow to your infinite experience and say - give it a try.

At present we have 3 minute rounds which can force you to be a bit rushed in your approach. I think we should increase it to 4 minute rounds to allow the option of a slower more planned approach to the bombsite.

Thoughts?

... and defusing is too fast.

I'll set defuse to 10 seconds then - it is currently set to 5

password changed as per OBs request. it is now set to test4dmw. Remember to update any desktop shortcuts you made. I have (hopefully) updated all entries in various threads to overwrite the old password with the new one.

It'll be easier once we announce it to bravo/Charlie as we can put a password thread in the bravo Section and then copy the contents to the password page once we go to Alpha section

Regarding the defuse time. I thought it felt ok with 5 seconds when I tried it with Arm and BB. It felt like you are quite exposed during this time. I think the defuse time is similar in CSS.
 I had a read on a CoD4 forum and as I understand it the plant/defuse time changes depending on the game type.
However, I think that we get a feel for it when we play the game enough.

4 or 5 minutes would be better in my eyes as well.

I agree, there is not a lot of time to build an attack with the 3 min games. Lets try 4 and see how that feels.
