What will the tank ammo be ?......Nerf Balls and fairies!

Oh no no no. The goal is to make tanks and other armor unstoppable to little infantrymen. So tank ammo stays powerful!

I'm not calling you out or disagreeing, it's just kind of pointless to make "gut feeling" arguments about the length of a round when there's easily available data we can reference.

About your rotation Lyra:
Verdun ends within bearable time because there is bleed.
Minsk has the following odds: a very strong possibility of total obliteration, or a mild possibility of an average armor round. Not good enough.
Shuhia 16 is actually very interesting and fun. I like it.

It's not an awful rotation, and certainly an improvement on the previous one, but it's not something I'd expect from you, and it's certainly not something I'm excited to play.

Re: Why isnt it infantry only night?

Would it be to complicated to switch rotation on, for example, 2 days of something like what is it at the moment, and 2 days of more infantry style maps ? Is it that hard or complicated to switch the rotation more often ?

If the rotation switched every 2 days most of us wouldn't even get the chance to sample it before it had been switched again - I think a week duration should be just fine (especially since 2-3 days are already replaced with themed nights).

yeah every 2 days may be short a little... but weekly would already be better for all of us I think.

Re: Why isnt it infantry only night?

Lol, fine. I stand corrected. And Lyra's pic is epic win. Suez 32 is possibly the worst map EVER. Ok maybe not but I absolutely hate it.

There is no easily available data to reference. Logs don't indicate map, amount of players, or balance.

However you have the data I gave you in the CaA forum a ways back. I see the game timer almost every day and the perception some of you guys have on maps is a bit off. On average assuming the server is relatively full and the balance was pretty good.

Camp G - ~23-26 minutes(no bleed + spam gameplay = longest)
Shingle - ~20-24 minutes (bleed doesn't come into play too often)
Cerbere, Suez, Minsk - ~18-22 minutes (no bleed - rare that Minsk is even enough to last that long though)
Belgrade, Tunis, Berlin - ~17-21 minutes (lower than the above maps due to bleed on the first two and armor chewing up players on Berlin)
Verdun, Sidi, Shuhia - ~14-18 minutes (bleed effect + 200 tickets = shortest maps)

Margin of error of course but that is about the best I can do in regards to averages.
