Sure, you're right but the major case people don't play longrange anymore is round times set hilariously long combined with lack of knowledge of the map and open area behaviour. Time goes on and you can hardly meet someone who knows things, who raised and learnt the game on those maps when level was so much higher than nowadays. Problem lays in psyche of people, they join open area map, get killed pretty fast, that happens few rounds, the guy gets bored and leaves the server after 30 min. Doesn't surprise me to be honest. Main problem is Hospital and acog4x raised community, people who have never learnt how to control M16 and M249 recoil, people who are amazed that you shoot in one point when you have 100% health and cem. Pity that you can't do much about it Bart

I'm for minimizing round times to the logical maximum. On pub or matches, doesn't matter. As for me on publics, I prefer to play assault, it's easier to score heavy imho, faster rounds, more action, more movement, more kills, more fun. As for competitive gameplay, I've played 'a few' matches... In this game nothing works better than good organized rush, in cqb or open area, it just doesn't matter. Of course you know that very well , but I mean long rounds have no sense at all. 95% of maps in aao are one sided, so it comes down to good rush, 0 or 1. I've always laught even at good teams trying to play slow eg. at JTRC Farm Raid and got picked one by one 6 rounds in a row not trying to change anything. It's a state of mind...

@Farer
In some point of view you're undoubtedly right but AAO is just an FPS game, similar to cod or cs but slower and it is what I like in it. If you want the real tactical game, try arma. Conversation is about round times, believe me, lower round times won't change the game, it won't become less tactical as you said, it'll just be faster.   

hey farer
I have the same problem with pb kick, BUT

you have enough time to set the map and the time until you get kicked.
don't change my server text again.

Ok I got it !
