Point claim timer.

Lower it back to 10. 30 is way too long.

30 mins?Or 30 secs until you claim it?

/claim goes for 30 seconds,

the point still goes for 10 minutes.

Personally, I agree. 30 seconds is too long for a claim to be happening. 10 seconds is too short. 15-20 seconds would be alright, but that's just me.

Whouaou 30 secs.15 secs are great.

20 is OK too, but 30 isn't bad either. IMO both are better than 10.

Simply because what Ari wrote in the announcement, 10 is just short enough to pin down others while someone runs up and claims.

We're going to leave it like this for a little while and see. From the points I've watched it's a drastic improvement.

Saw a point yesterday that the 30 second timer fucked over MagC because they had just killed all the rebelz there and were claiming when: "Rebelz have successfully claimed mat a drop off!"

Maybe if the point would not end when somebody is claiming it?
Also.... Did the newbie spawn move to? Cause it looks like everyone is going to be able to respawn, rush back to B pickup and kill the claimer before he gets it. Havent seen the point IG yet so I can be wrong.

The new timer encourages people to actually secure the area before claiming instead of rushing in like a pinoy or rebelZZZZ scrub!!

so its a good thing

Exactly.

not if you fight with faction that spawns next to the point. It ruins all the fun. Make it 15-20 and it should be OKAY.

Darnell_Denroy · Post by **Darnell_Denroy** » February 4th, 2010, 7:42 pm

30 seconds is awesome, now you actually have to work to claim it, not just run in, desync a car and wait 10 seconds. 30 seconds makes it fair

yakuza has like 500 people on for points, it really shouldn't be an issue for you guys to secure a tiny area

Yaks will always get the graveyard. They spawn right there haha.

we had 4 people fighting with 4 bikers near dillimore, we easily cleared them out but mag c came over and started shooting at us while bikers got the claim, then mag c got killed while bikers cleared out survivors. Chris bell kept dying from friendly fire while he was chicken running away from me. The thing is, if bikers will get the claim first they will keep coming back untill we'll claim. If claimer gets shot at he isn't really going to stay at one position, he'll flee just to survive. They can keep coming back. It's not the numbers issue, 3 of us were able to kill around 8 mag c on the point (they werent even moving while shooting) but they still won because they kept coming back and we didn't really had chance to claim. They won while our LT was claiming, 3 seconds left and claim would be ours but no, Mag c have succesfully claimed the point. 30 is way too long.
Yakuza will have graveyard, bikers will have dillimore and other families will have the points around unless there's no activity from them.

sounds like a good balance instead of yakuza dominating every point because they have infinite resources and 20 players with 700 ping

20 players with 700 ping, lol. Infinte resources? We actually buy that/mat run it so what's the unfair thing here? it's now about who claims first and who has the most people. If it will be a fight 10 vs 10 who claims first wins the point. Did you ever fought in a point battle anyway? you should find something else to do than just trying to be smart on forum.

BigAssGoat · Post by **BigAssGoat** » February 5th, 2010, 4:36 am

I think thats a hyperbole vikki. Nobody in yakuza has 700 ping, not even 400. It will be so easy to get points by yourself... just claim and then leave and you have 30 seconds to rush the claimer and spas him or ram him with a car off the I(I havent seen the points so I dont really know if you can ram claimer with a car or not, but if it's possible, I think ill definitely do it)

If the timer is going to be 30 seconds, then points should not get claimed while someone is attempting to claim it back.

Vikki never has any valuable input so I don't see why anyone would bother even paying him any mind aside from telling him to eat a barrel of dicks. Which he should.
