Weapon respawn time for TDM 2v2 ladder and competition play.

[k0jak]

I have set up a poll for the people who have tried the settings, I want to improve competitive play for nexuiz and finally build some activity (there are a lot of clans now asking about 2v2 TDM).

This poll is for changing the weapon respawn time of weapons from 15 to a new setting, i also want this change to change the ammo respawn time and armour shards + health packs, if people want that also, if just for weapons then please state that.

I don't believe unless some changes are introduced that this will happen, i do not want to change standard nexuiz with the settings i propose here.


Please leave what you vote for in your POST, this way i can see who is replying and i know the majority of people who have tested the settings, this way i won't get people who havent tried voting just because they can't be bothered to test a change or are oh so anti-change.

This is for competitive play only, NOT to change in nexuiz ffa, or public servers.

Options are:

25 seconds (weapons, armour shards, ammo + health packs)
25 seconds (weapons only)
27.5 seconds (weapons, armour shards, ammo + health packs)
27.5 seconds (weapons only)
No change.

where i have put (weapons, armour shards, ammo + health packs)

Before when testing with weapons set to 25, this also changed these to 25, i didn't notice any problems personally, but if you do and only want weapons changed then that is why the options are there.



I'lll start of, i have played many many games now i gave my reasons in my other thread post of why i like it, and so did many others so i won't re-type it all here again as long.

my vote goes for.

25 seconds (armour shards, ammo + health packs)

as this feels right to me and is a bit shorter then 27.5.

Voting will be open for 2 weeks from today.

Americans can find me on at #allstars.eu or pm me, if you wish for some games to try.

25 seconds (armour shards, ammo + health packs) , 15 is just too short.

27.5 seconds (weapons only)

Just to have it some random number and a bit harder to time. People who tried both also said that they didn't really feel a difference so that's good. So with this just one more reason added and that is 'harder item timing', which I believe is a good thing.

[morfar]

25 seconds (weapons only).

20 might be good also. Medium armor (25 points) and Large health (50 points), will spawn at that rate in 2.5.

25 seconds (weapons, armour shards, ammo + health packs)

For me reducing overall available health on the map as well makes just sense .

just so you know i totally agree with that statement.

Have I tried item spawns with 25/27.5? Cause I don't know if they were affected. So I can't really say anything about those yet. As far as I know at least.

I thought it was you who told me they got changed..it must of been morfar then, so yes when you played they were automatically changed to the time of the weapons. (in 2.5 there will be option to JUST change the weapons respawn time).

but when you played us you played with the items changed also.

Lool, didn't even notice. Then I suppose I'm fine with the items changing as well. ^_^
