Macaronii Posted August 29, 2013 Posted August 29, 2013 We will be trialing it this weekend. There will be 30 minute time limits, and everything else will be the same It will be changed Friday at midnight/Sunday morning at 12. It will be changed back on sunday night/ monday morning at 12 also.Thought and opinions?
StJohn Gumby Posted August 29, 2013 Posted August 29, 2013 I like it Will be interesting to see if others do, and how they adapt to 30min AOW from Marathon. Obviously, standing around waiting for credits isn't really an option in AOW so some dedicated Marathon players may not like the more intense style of AOW. Three Cheers Gumby 1
Joetorp Posted August 29, 2013 Posted August 29, 2013 Good idea! I will probably get in a few games. This Labor Day weekend in the US, 3 day holiday. You might want to extend it. Joe 2
Feda Posted August 29, 2013 Posted August 29, 2013 Can't wait for this, so happy it finally happens. 2
vlatkozelka Posted August 29, 2013 Posted August 29, 2013 my opinion: i know alot of people hate >1 hour games , but 30 minutes is too short server will become about pointwhoring, wait for first harvy load->buy tank->shoot whatever u see , then the team with most score wins......boring and nukes will be better for the opposite (points for disarming) this is no clanwar server , u like time , go play CW. we wanna have fun 1
D4rX Posted August 29, 2013 Posted August 29, 2013 What's the reason btw? Ingame activity has been great during weekends, why change what people like? Doesn't make any sense. 4

And how exactly public games mean marathon and CW mean aow? Do I need to remind you there were AOW public servers? Thanks for your opinion though. If you want more time, then how much would you like?
vlatkozelka Posted August 29, 2013 Posted August 29, 2013 "we" lol don't talk in the name of others. some dedicated Marathon players may not like the more intense style of AOW. Three Cheers Gumby the text in red is the "we" feda, i wasnt tryin to talk in then name of others , but im sure other people like marathon and why did i say aow=CW , it's because 30 minutes will mean too serious gameplay just like CW .
ehh Posted August 29, 2013 Posted August 29, 2013 people will just buy tanks and whore you say? thats what happens anyway, ask darkz perhaps bump up the time to 45/60 as a compromise to the mara noobs <3 2

I'm also sure other ppl like AOW. in what way aow is serious and marathon not lol, doesn't make sense. Yes, do 45 or 60 mins, that should make you happy.
dronez4 Posted August 29, 2013 Posted August 29, 2013 I dont mind aslong as its a trial, A permenant Would have to be discussed, I Like the fact Applez is trying this out, Lets see how it goes for the first weekend.
Dentes Posted August 29, 2013 Posted August 29, 2013 server will become about pointwhoring, wait for first harvy load->buy tank->shoot whatever u see , then the team with most score wins......boring this is happening on the server sometimes you just join the game and you see ppl with 20k of score just from pointwhoring and they keep doing that for hours I still remember one game like a month ago it was field and it was runing for 3 hours and the scores were insane just pointwhoring. imo aow can prevent that and force to work as a team to achive the game goals. 1
ehh Posted August 29, 2013 Posted August 29, 2013 games will go the same way anyway, just shorter! considering theres no time limit servers left, this should be a good thing. 1
nraacedill Posted August 29, 2013 Posted August 29, 2013 Im gonna have to agree with rzr on this one. 45 minutes. 1
StJohn Gumby Posted August 29, 2013 Posted August 29, 2013 my opinion: server will become about pointwhoring, wait for first harvy load->buy tank->shoot whatever u see I guarantee if you just wait for the first harvy drop, 1. You'll never get it unless you go out and defend it. 2. The other team will !donate to get an APC, rape your base and you'll never get a tank. I'm excited about trying 30min AOW here, it will promote teamwork over pointwhoring for sure and Renegade is 100% better with teamwork. Let's start with 30 mins and see how it goes. Can always increase the time limit later. Gumby 2
f1r3st0rm Posted August 29, 2013 Posted August 29, 2013 great idea, bringing back nostalgia of regular servers 45min is enough imo
Volcom Posted August 29, 2013 Posted August 29, 2013 I think 30 minutes is plenty and I think that is the best time to trial. We can change things after the initial trial 2
Sean Posted August 29, 2013 Posted August 29, 2013 If this happens you'll see a lot more of me, especially on the weekends. I'm a big fan of AOW. Thank you so much for even considering this idea! I'm completely behind this. 1
Macaronii Posted August 30, 2013 Author Posted August 30, 2013 For this weekend it will be 30 minutes. If you feel that you need more time then please post your opinion and suggestion on what it should be!
bad2gurlz Posted August 30, 2013 Posted August 30, 2013 30 mins would be ok, it's good to try some change in a while.
StJohn Gumby Posted August 31, 2013 Posted August 31, 2013 Had a couple of good games this morning with iTaLy, trist and Protos Siege tho' suggested a few will need to get used to the time limit Lovin' the 30min AOW again. Gumby
