Saris December 3, 2006 Share Saris Member December 3, 2006 Hey guys, since DWP came out, we raised the hold time to 10 secs. But now, since that's gone, 10 seconds hold time is WAY WAAAAYYY too much. I didn't know if this was a decision to keep it that long, or if it has just been ignored until now, that's why I created a poll. I personally think 3 seconds is a good time. It's good to have such a short time, so that fast-buyers-fast-rushers can grab P90s and the not and charge spawns to catch people off guard. Anyway, just thought I'd bring this up.

Demoner December 3, 2006 Share Demoner Member December 3, 2006 I agree the time right now is too long. I say 6 seconds though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sgt. Slaughterâ„¢-TopBrass December 4, 2006 Share Sgt. Slaughterâ„¢-TopBrass Member December 4, 2006 I'm thinking more along the lines of 7.5 secs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meherdmann December 4, 2006 Share meherdmann Member December 4, 2006 I think 6-8 sec would also be good. 3 sec is too short when you buy weapon-armor-nade-flash manually, for example Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kruten December 4, 2006 Share Kruten Member December 4, 2006 3 or 4. CS seconds are already a bit longer than they are in real time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ice_Berge_00 December 4, 2006 Share Ice_Berge_00 GC Alumni December 4, 2006 Actually you're slightly incorrect Saris. Freezetime always was 10 seconds. Awhile back I restored a setting that shortened it up overnight but had a mistake in that. This had the affect of always making it short. That was fixed around the time DWP came out. It had nothing to do with DWP though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mookie December 4, 2006 Share mookie GC Alumni December 4, 2006 Actually the freezetime was long before it was short. It's there so the offense can figure out what they're doing, not so everyone has time to buy a gun. Also, it's nice everytime someone says "lame buy time" right before they leave, because at that moment you realize you're also glad that they left.

It had nothing to do with DWP though. Yeah, I remember it was longer before. I wasn't sure if it was 10 seconds, though, cause I couldn't help but notice being bought up and ready to go with 6-5 seconds left on hold time. That's why I made the poll just in case - It's mostly me noticing it, I think. b-4-3 b-6-2 sometimes b-6-6 and b-6-4 ....3 seconds of buying for me. Anyway, by the looks of it, a medium of 6 looks good. This is all of course, a request because now I know why it's so high. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demoner December 5, 2006 Share Demoner Member December 5, 2006 Another request would be to remove the long warm up rounds or have it so there are more warm up rounds just shorter times so there isn't all the tking going on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tried this on Recrud and it wasn't running all the way through the script I wrote. May try to rework it again sometime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warpig December 7, 2006 Share Warpig Member December 7, 2006 Mo is slow and needs 20 seconds to realize you cant buy the AWP so he has to choose another gun. I liked it when you could stab each other in the spawn during the "freeze time" ah the good ole days...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ice_Berge_00 December 8, 2006 Share Ice_Berge_00 GC Alumni December 8, 2006 The reason for the long warmup time was so some with slower loading computers or connections could still get in (like me). Otherwise many people always end up missing the pistol round and it can often be a lot of fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otherwise many people always end up missing the pistol round and it can often be a lot of fun. thats why i said there should just be more warm up rounds and just a shorter time limit for each round so it would equal to the same amount of time in the end and stop the tking Edited December 8, 2006 by Demoner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saris December 8, 2006 Author Share Saris Member December 8, 2006 Yes, the warm-up time is fine. (Though I'm usually first to load. /brag Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mookie December 8, 2006 Share mookie GC Alumni December 8, 2006 Even though DWP is off, it still takes longer to do buying. Rebuy is broken whether DWP is on or off, so those of us that don't have/use buy scripts are generally buying weapon, sidearm, armor, defuser, and throwables all separately.

Fatty December 9, 2006 Share Fatty GC Founder December 9, 2006 I think it's been said. Freezetime is to encourage strats. Warmup timer is so Fatty can play the pistol round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
