+1 for 30mn maps
That will give a revenge
+1 for Iron Gator twice TY
What do u think guyz and girlz about a warlord only Infantry sometimes??
Good job Shark, once more

Personally I would like to have the timer set to 45 minutes instead of 30. 30 minutes is not enough when the teams are balanced and there is no ticket bleed. We ended 2 matches with over 100 tickets to spare due to the timer running out. Both matches were just about to really pick up and an extra 15 minutes would have made a huge difference.

Edit: +1 for devil's perch

Hmm. We could probs try this on our infantry server if people wanted to, but I wouldn't make the regular SF server Warlord inf only. Mainly because it has become known as "the" SF server and personally I play SF just for the kits & vehicles. What I'd like to see on "the" server would be a weekend of Warlord / ghost town / (maybe iron gator) only and see how that would play out. They are the most popular SF maps and I have noticed that many people leave when we play the other, less popular maps.

Thank you for the feedback so far. I didn't manage to play tonight but I hope to be able to see how this new test profile plays out (2 rounds, 30 minutes), see if Imperial_Toaster's hunch is correct on most maps or not.

Keep the good times coming! Did anyone manage to play Devils Perch tonight??
Apparently not, you made it to Night Flight only (currently playing).

I am again joining as devils was. but there was no one left or only tobi and I think dominiko. I'm glad if we can play it properly. maybe on the weekend
thanks shark

What kind of revenge do you expect on maps like Ghost Town ... this setup actually kills the buzz as you end up playing two broken rounds and you never get to a clear victory (just win by tickets after the 30 minutes run out).

The setting will be changed back to how it was before: 1 round, 60 minutes match time. This is for the better. We have the popular maps in the rotation twice anyways, no need for a "revenge", broken round, which feels like a robbery (cops vs bandits) more than an actual proper match.

Changes / suggestions will be discussed in greater detail from now on, before turning them on.
Kind regards, Staff Officer S_h_a_r_k_93 

After playing Perch for a little bit yesterday, I actually thought it was not that bad. Personally I would like to keep it and instead remove Leviathan from the rotation, as I prefer Perch much more than Leviathan.

Thanks for your feedback @PlayerAlpha, but after such a long way to add these (night) maps, I don't think we are going to remove them. We reduced Leviathan to 32 size because it was too big, but let's hear what the others have to say about it. I haven't actually played Devils Perch yet! Good fights tonight though, 32/48 peak!
