How long should a round of PR last?

**Charity Case** · 05-21-2009, 11:09 PM

Question's pretty self explanatory. I know some people may have complicated answers, so I apologize for the rather simplistic voting options.

This is something I've been wondering about for a while.

2 hours would be perfect. From experience, after 2 hours, attention span drops dramatically (this goes for meetings, conference calls and many other things).

As long as it takes to win.

Hour +30 is about right, unless it is Bi Ming in which case it should last 10 minutes.

Depending on the map, 60-90 minutes. Occasional 2 hour matches are fine, but usually after the 2 hour mark it doesn't matter how good the game is going, it's time to end...

After an hour and a half, it gets a bit exhausting.

I can hang in there for 2 hours. After three hours I'll fall asleep.

With you on that.

If I get around to it, I'll take the timestamps off the server's BR files and average them. It'll be interesting to know how long the average game takes on TG.

I feel like it can be different for each map. Kashan / Qwai for example I don't mind going 2 hours but smaller maps like Bi Ming and things like Ejod / 7 Gates which tend to get in standoff mode I would like to end within an hour.

Definitely discount the hours when the server is not full because holy **** some times it takes forever... Kashan 32 with 20 people [kill me already]!

I haven't been able to play PR for quite awhile mainly due to lack of time, but I think 60 minutes to 90 minutes is a good ballpark figure. Maps definitely get stale after 90 minutes, especially if one side is getting it's ass handed to them or if it's just a giant stalemate over one or two flags.

1:30. This is usually what a round between two average teams lasts, but really it is dependant on what type of map. Like EJOD for example, that can last for half an hour.
