Rtd

[Soda]

I noticed the RTD time limit has been change to 20 seconds and I disagree. I think RTD should have been kept to 45 seconds because:

• It distinguished our servers from other servers
• 45 seconds to clear minecraft > 20 seconds to clear minecraft
• Not enough time to mass kill the entire team

People whining about people camping minecraft will be more of a fucking child if they don't have enough time to clear it out. What may have been intended to adress this problem only made it worse. If you get something good, you don't have time to use it at max efficiency, same thing with bad rolls. A better solution is to increase the chance of rolling something bad to a 60-70% chance and keep the time to 45, so if someone rolls something good, they can be proud of their luck and kills that round. Spawn camping with godmode wit h20 is crap, since most people roll in the tunnels and it takes 10 secs to get over to an empty enemy base.

BOTTOM LINE: Increase the chance of rolling something bad and keep the time to 45.

I have a better idea. Lets' remove RTD all together.

I've never like RTD, but Static wants it in there so I can respect that.

As for the limit change, from what I know, it was changed so that people have a fighting chance. Also I think he increase the bad chance not to long ago.

You don't need RTD to clear minecraft that is why there are 2 entrances go spy or heavy+medic to win and for camping bases its enough to just camp the second floor you don't need to camp the spawning area too

I like to use RTD in a pinch, I used to have it bound to a key, but I guess it got replaced by something.


RTD is a good thing to have in a non-standard map, it offers a way out of many flaws a map might have. Besides, there is a very large cool-down between RTD uses, so all y'all whiners can just sit in spawn for 20 seconds and deal.

How about this:  add a trigger with a 5 foot radius around both portals that do not allow buildings.  If one gets remoted into it, it blows up.  That way you can get in without being blocked by a dispenser.  Also add a trigger push so people cant stand in the way.  Also add HHH for 10-15 seconds on RTD and keep the limit at 20 because of the differing opinions.

Now that is a good idea for the portals, kinda should have been there in the first place.
