Deathrun; Map Time Request

[nonary]

I feel as though the map times in the Deathrun servers are far too long; an hour per map. Would it be alright to request that it was brought down to 45 minutes or even 30 so that more maps can be played and have a lesser chance of killing the server outright when a large majority dislikes said map?
I feel like an hour is too long for deathrun maps and soem maps really wear out their appeal quickly that way.

I think 10 rounds is the problem, I'd lower it to 5 or 7.

[nonary]

I wasn't aware it went by rounds. In that case, the problem is some of the maps like pirate adventure where rounds take abhorently long and the system not accounting for 8+ minute maps.

[Faux]

Yeah, that's true.

Yeah, I agree with the rounds thing. Deathrun Retroserver maps run a total of 10 rounds, which I think is very tirering in the long run. This becomes an issue on very lengthy maps like Steamworks, Baby Pirate Adventure, and Meme Factory (which is by far the longest map ever). I think rounds should be reduced to a comfortable range of about 6-to-7 rounds as to not drag out the maps, especially if stallers and exploiters are concerned.

[Vox]

I agree around 6 or 7 rounds is enough.

[Respolo Forces]

5 or 6 rounds sounds good to me. Anything lower than the current to be honest.

Setup from my DR.

mp_bonusroundtime "15"
mp_timelimit "30"
mp_maxrounds "0"
mp_winlimit "0"

People from mine don't usually have a issue with these

[KingGodzilla]

oh transit i didnt expect you to be here lol, anyways good idea

[Lead]

I kinda like the 10 rounds, but add a "rate this map" feature in-game and remove the maps that are hated.

[Transit Of Venus]

I don’t use the max rounds since people just slay there selfs and that is one waisted

Good Idea PINGAS, Rate this map feature should be added and maps with the lowest should get removed. (Obivusly Stop Removing Maps at some point or else we will end up with no maps to play on)

I remember Intox Gaming servers had that feature implemented to filter out maps that are not well-recieved. I think this is a good idea too.

I got the idea from Lazyneer's zombie server, which had a similar system in place. I would remove all maps that had a rating less than like 2 out of 5 every two to three months and replace some of them with new maps.
I would also recommend removing the W01 Deathrun server since I rarely see anyone on there when I am online
