As per one of the earlier threads this week, the Counter-Strike server has been updated to have 2 minute rounds as a test. This was done because on servers with higher numbers, when people sit around camping in corners it makes the game extremely dumb for everyone else that is trying to play it properly. The faster round times seem to encourage more active gameplay, especially in dust - the terrorists are a lot less prone to camping their side of the map.

Please let us know if you think these changes are working out - personally I'm finding it a lot more fun and I now get extremely frustrated playing on other servers with a 5 minute round time.

2 minute rounds rock you. No dirty terrorists camping.

Kind of encourages them to get the bomb down before the 45 second mark, hahahahaha.

could ya change the rounds to 3 mins?? by the time the T's have beaten any resistance to get to the bomb sites we run outta time. Also the bomb timer needs to be taken into consideration.

I think its good having shorter rounds. but maybe crank it up to 2mins 30. so its not too short

The player number and round time is perfect.

Who ever thought of that must be a champion!

*smiles proudly*

It is still a *little* to easy to be vote kicked from the server though (As I was yesterday, because I was caining so hard newbs thought I had to be cheating).

I vote more DoD

I second your vote.

2 minutes is fine.
It only takes about 20 seconds for me to get to the bomb site and plant it.
If I don't do it in that first time bracket, I can't do it at all.
And with the 2 minutes, the other Ts actually back you up on your assault to the bomb site.

But they should do that anyway...

thank f*** for this!

awesome, my cunning plan is working

2 minutes rounds are perfect, no gay camping and always action. and if u die it is only a 60 second wait

Are there stats for the server???

it goes towards the wireplay stats....i think

trog: keep 2min round times, but set reduce the C4 timer to 35 seconds, as opposed to the default 45.

deeper, good thinking, 99

let me have my sig!!!!!!!!
if its smaller is it allowed???

Nice work..

But please include other 32 player maps other than dust.

eg Aztec, Cbble(?), Dust2 off the top of my head.

cbble only has 10 spawns on each team, so that wouldnt be smart :D

dust2 and aztec are the only other 32 player maps i know about, so yer...add them to the rotation

doesn't seige have 32 capability?
