Will you be able to set the time limit to zero in countdown? Yeah danzig was a Russian camping map, but i think on the new danzip map for heroes you can go across the bridges now, i may be wrong.

I like time limits for countdown -- they are essential. That said, I think servers should be able to specify or change how long the time for each stage is, but I think the count down timer is essential for the game type to work.

Otherwise, there will be nothing in the game to make sure that people on the attacking team actually ATTACK. Rather, you'll see players hang back and try to stay alive as long as possible, just as you do in Counterstrike, Search and Destroy in CoD and the objective mode back in MoH: Allied Assault. This is especially true on public servers where teamwork is not often not well organized.

I see your point, but i believe a time limit if fake and the battlefield series has it that there is no time limit and only reinforcement numbers as in reality and the game matches flow very well. I already had a big discussion about it earlier i just want the option to turn it off or on for the other two game types not countdown. Anyways i was just wondering if there was any info on this subject, not meaning to get into a big discussion.

Well if they made it so it could be turned off they'd have to change the name of the mode lol ... take away the countdown timer and you can't very well call it countdown, right?

Yes, the whole point of the countdown mode is to have small intervals of time. But i was talking about territory and firefight having no time limit.

I want a 24/7 Grain elevator server, with the Russian team having modded Russian Naval infantry uniforms.

The problem with using reinforcements is that you always find at the end of the round some noob is afk in spawn or camping in some remote corner and no one able to do anything about it

This is what i was thinking of. Maybe once your at 0% a time limit does start.
