Abandoned vehicle, explode time
Is it possible to change it?
I would like to see jeeps becoming available more quickly, so squads are able to move to their objective faster and commanders have better control over the battle.

Not that I have found. If you want the jeeps available back at their spawn point, drive them into a lake or blow 'em up.
Peace through fear... since 1947!

Re: Abandoned vehicle, explode time
Players need to learn to take more value in the vehicles. They shouldn't be abandoning them. Damage / time should be longer for vehicles. Just because vehicles aren't the best for actually attacking does not mean they are less valuable.
Just because players ditch them doesn't mean we should make them blow up faster. On the contrary, players should learn to better utilize vehicles.

Jeeps are used to get a squad quickly from base to base. I don't see another use. Originally Posted by asch

Mind I'm only talking about jeeps.

Re: Abandoned vehicle, explode time
Think of it this way... there are only a limited number of jeeps for a reason. If we wanted to provide quick access / transportation around the map, we could just place 20 jeeps. The limited use of vehicles means that a player needs to take care of the vehicle.
I understand what you're getting at with trying to make jeeps destruct faster. I think we're just striving after two different play styles on the server in that respect.

Phew, I haven't been noticed! Originally Posted by asch
