Now that BTB in Infinite is 12v12, up from 8v8, the kills needed to win should reflect that. I think the winning score should be increased to 125 or 150. Keeping it at 100 with the higher volume of matches makes the games go by more quickly. Too quickly, imo.
Just a little suggestion.
4v4 50
8v8 100
12v12 100?? Should be 150 or at least 125.

Exactly! Even 8v8 BTB heavies had 150 in 3 and Reach.
Yeah they end way to quickly.
With the increased amount of players and frequent drop of power weapons, the 12v12 matches fly by pretty quickly, especially on the smaller maps like Highpower. Increasing the number of players also lets players interact with the power vehicles more often because matches are prolonged. I think increasing the winning score gradually, and seeing how that affects the game would be the best decision.
For example, starting off with 125 v 125, then 140 v 140, and so on.
4v4 40
8v8 80
120v12 120
Did you see what I did there
I do. BTB became a horribly one sided massacre….
I do think BTB slayer should last a little longer but I don’t think they should jump straight to 150. 120 seems about right for now, then see how the average game times are comparing.
Without looking at my past games I’d say that 4v4 slayer and BTB slayer aren’t that different in length currently. On the other hand BTB CTF often goes until time runs out making all other BTB matches seem short in comparison.
A strange case of too much coffee…
I have been playing BTB lately, quite enjoying actually. I noticed everybody that’s commented hasn’t mentioned how long the games are taking in BTB slayer… surely time and map sizes need to be factors too.
Absolutely. BTB slayer just doesn’t seem as consistently fast paced as the arena maps because you definitely spend more time walking/running/driving to your next engagement.
I guess I naturally expect BTB games of all varieties to take a little longer and that’s good in my opinion but how far do you want to push that. Getting stuck in a one sided match is much worse the longer it goes on.
They’re usually are timed rather well for 100 frags for my BTB as long as one team isn’t getting absolutely massacred by the other team. Long enough to satisfy me at least.
I think 10 to 15 minutes is just right for Slayer the longer BTB games are suited for objective as they have more variables and I believe more interesting.
Me too my last two BTB slayer games was a one sided fest that lasted 9min55secs and a3 point match that lasted 11mins33seconds.
Slayer definitely needs to be shorter and faster.
Let’s stick to this years threads
