MatchBox360 appreciate the valued feedback from its members n as such would like your opinion on what you feel the bleed time should be set to for the Gears of War - Execution 4v4 :cool:
The outcome of this poll will determine what bleed time is to be used in the tournament. The rules currently state a bleed time of 10 seconds, but we aware that some ppl disagree with this n the rules will be updated based on the results of this poll if needs be.
Bleed time settings are generally personal preference as to what you are used to, but it does have a consequential effect on how you play the game, what tactics you employ n your choice of weapons you use...so please have your say!
Please select one of the options above n feel free to comment below with your reasoning behind your decision...the more constructive the better. :cool:
please note: any posts containing any flaming or disrespect towards other members will simply be removed

20 seconds does not make a corrupt game. 20 secs gives the advantage of allowing some time to get to the person to finish them off.

People say 15 would be good, but if you tap A on 20 seconds you can be up in 15 seconds whereas if you tap A on 10 then you can be up in 5 seconds which is just too short.
20 seconds is easily the best.

For everyones information n benefit, full tests have shown that there is a difference in recovery time between for ON/OFF host:
10 second bleed:
ON host: can recover in 8 seconds
OFF host: can recover in 5 seconds
Off host advantage = 3 seconds
20 second bleed:
ON host: can recover in 15 to 16 seconds
OFF host: cab recover in 9 to 10 seconds
Off host advantage = upto 7 seconds
@ bells - as stated in the first post in this thread, any offensive posts will be edited or removed following yesterdays arguments on this subject. By quoting then posting in reference it would provoke a similar reaction n therefore removed. Thanks for understanding :cool:

Because the difference from host and none host is much more significant on a 20 out.
You can run the length of all maps in 15 seconds as tested. Host wouldn't stand a chance and therefore the reason why this is Execution and not Warzone.

Well we tested and it takes 15 seconds to roadie run the length of the map.
Settings are there to be edited ie customisation, just look at H1, H2, GE, PD, PDZ, R6 and all the rest.
10 out is competitive, 20 out you may as well be playing Warzone.
How about that? Have an Execution league for gamers that want 10 out and a Warzone league for the gamers that want 20 out?
Makes sense.
Azure
18-01-2007, 01:37 PM
You tested it wrong then, I just got your brother to time it, 16 seconds to sniper with rolling start.
25 seconds for length of map going through snipes avoiding cars. Unless you want to imply your brother cannot count.
The fix to this is simple.
Home team picks 3 maps and their bleed time, away team picks 2 maps and their bleed time. Everyone is happy.
KONSPIRACY

Not that it has any baring whatsoever on this debate, but just to clear it up...I have just tested that run on gridlock n it does take approx 15 seconds from spawn to snipe as timed by Seiko (my chronographic watch). However, it it possible to do the length from pedestrian crossing to predestrian crossing in approx 15 seconds...n from spawn to crossing takes 7 seconds.

The whole point of execution is not so that you can revive yourself, it's so that the other team must execute you.
You say 20 second Bleed Time is just warzone however you couldn't be more wrong. On warzone you can kill downed enemies from anywhere.
Execution Bleed Time 20 seconds is easily the most team-based gametype in this game however from the looks of things a lot of you lack team experience on this game and are just thinking about being able to get yourself up in 10 seconds. It's a 4v4 Team tournament and I hope MB takes this into account because 10 second bleed time does not promote teamwork.

I just said the exact same thing to Kon.
A perfect game for me would be execution with NO ability to pick yourself up, your team should have to come and revive you - which is why MLG do 30 seconds as it is as close as can be to that. Being shot to bits and getting up at all is suspect, getting shot to bits and getting up after 4 seconds = lol.

No but when you want your clan to have the credibility it thinks it deserves when discussing gears of war it doesnt help when I am getting told that "testing shows it takes 15 seconds to run across the map" when BLATANTLY it doesn't, why even bother saying that when it is so obviously wrong it just damages your credibility on other opinions [such as bleed out time :P].

I'm sure that if you made it clear that although everything else is settled due to certain members of either the Staff or people wishing to sign up, the bleed time has been left to a vote following succesful entry of all participants.
The reason I say this as although this poll might seem a fair way it doesn't give the correct view of either participants or possible participants.
As anyone can vote therefore enabling a swing in the voting and giving a incorrect boost for possible results.

Corky mate i agree 10 seconds is the correct time in my eyes BUT you have to remember that with the 20 second rule you can be up in 10 seconds if you hammer the A button so that’s why I’ve voted for 20 seconds.
10 seconds you can be up within 4 seconds maybe 5, and what’s the point of downing your enemy if you cant run 50 yards before he gets up again to finish him? - Anyway this is my view not "the" view remember.

Dont forget three downs and you atomatically die, thats the point in it being 10 so if the sniper downs you he wont be able to run the whole map and finish you of. ;)

Spin i get were your coming from mate! Its just most of my games on GOW have been played with the 10sec bleed time so therefore i want to stick with it as i feel its the best bleed time! people who play with 20secs are going to stick with that....its all personnal opinions and whats best for the tournement aswell!! i just feel when you include a longer bleed time than 20secs its sort of going towards a warzone type game because you can reach that apponent in time to kill them after downing them without giving them time to get up!!
I've played all my games with mates and other people online for fun and i have to say the 10sec bleed time is much better to play with rather than the 20sec bleed time! you get more fun out of the 10sec bleed time and a better overall game i feel!!!

The idea is that your team protects you and retrives your sorry dead ass for revival "go play warzone" is not valid because you aint ever getting revived in warzone. Your teams job is to protect and recover downed players, downing other players is supposed to be a break in the enemies strategic line where you can push through and "power play" an area of a map, the concept is similar to halo 2.
If you can get up under your own strength after 4.5 seconds then your team do not have to think about you so much because you will either get up on your own feet or die straight away, it removes an additional level of strategic thinking, and when the skill cap in gears is so low the game needs everything it can to test a teams ability to strategise effectively - this sorts the men from the boys in what is a team based shooter. Truth be known I think it should be 30 seconds, perhaps I should campaign more for that as it suits how the game is supposed to run, I was only saying twenty seconds before as a compromise to what I actually like to play, so 30 seconds for me. People should have to be rescued, without being actually killed from across the map - warzone, without the cross map killing. MLG got it right, [as usual].
I understand that 10 seconds is a faster game and it is indeed good fun, I have spent the last 4 days playing nothing but ten seconds to better understand the dynamics of it. It equates to faster gameplay and more up close action and is great for casual play I understand its fun I really do, but really, Halo 2 without shields is a much faster game and can be fun too, but it does not mean it is a competitive setting by any means.
[Sighs.]
But whatever, I am all for pro-choice. I think teams should be able to pick their own bleed times with their own maps, so people will have to play on 10,20 and 30 second bleed times. Surely no one will argue whoever comes out on top of the pile from playing in such a manner surely deserves the crown? Also by doing this EVERYONE is happy and makes this whole dumb debate over with in a satisfactory manner that best compromises for all players.
But whatever, I am all for pro-choice.
Wow, straight from one contreversial topic to another :P

And only if you had promoted that from the begining of this mess dude. People listen to you funnily enough :p
:cool:
Just bare in mind that there are people here that play GoW a considerable lot than anyone else and 10 out is a competitive fast paced game, the difference with H2 no shields being it's one shot.
The fact also still remains is that MLG are doing an extreme league that consists of a 10 out. Thank's Sam.
When we stated Warzone = teh 20 out, we know you can be shot on the spot but you can still choose to either let them bleed out or go over and execute.
Same with Execution, the players have the choice to act, with a 10 out they have to think fast and play fast, where as if it were 20 out they got the time to think about it, revive a team mate, run over to pick up a weapon and THEN go over and kill the downed player.
That's what our arguement was but people can be ignorant and not understand if they haven't experienced every element of the game.
Anyway this should come to a close soon enough and petty difference's put aside.
This is a strong community and will continue to grow (eventually taking over the UK and then the world, muahahaha).

what i dont get is that if u get down is that u have a chance to get up if there is 10 sec but if u have 20 sec bleed out time you 1. wont have a chance to get back up unless healed
That is the entire point of the people who argue for 20 seconds mate.

The fact is People are split on this; everyone should try to understand that Matchbox wants this too be a fun and competitive event for everyone. Whatever Matchbox decides it will be purely based on what is best for everyone taken part in the event.
What Kon has suggested i think is the best idea I've heard to solve our debate and fairest way I believe.
Seeing as the vote is so close n is basically down to personal preference, we are considering updating the rules so that each team plays 2 games with their choice of maps n bleed time. As there are no distinguished rules for GoW n this is our first online competition, it would be a suitable compromise for all players involved. :cool:

I agree, it's obvious that the poll is extremely even and the winner would only win by a whisker, I just hope these are legit votes.

i didnt get what u said corkyuk anyway that would be a great idea just to do what kon said. but i am saying if it is 10 secs its more of a challenge and its good to test ur skills isnt it. isnt that how we get better?

Well if the teams preference happens to be 5 or 30 then so be it, I'd assume.

SailinKid mate what Kon has suggest is a way where both sides of the fence get what they want as best as can be done. I know you think your "right" but as it stands there is no right or wrong but instead a lot of gamers who are split on this game setting.
Can't we all just get along :) ;)

Where did you get that quote from Snake? Can't seem to find it...
EDIT: Ah i found it my bad, it was on page 1 and has already been answered by Cat herself "I didn't force your hand. I just asked if you had voted as you were considering to take part."
- Fair enough i'd say

Thats the problem people are posting there opinions and because everybody has there own opinion it starts an argument but i think KON's way will be the best way forward from this aslong as no0one choose's 5 or 30sec bleed time!lol!

Personally, I think 10 seconds is long enough.
If you cant reach your'e downed opponent by then, thats your problem.
10 seconds gives us all a fighting chance, and makes the matches more interesting, and besides im not really a fan of button bashing the A button for 20 seconds only to die anyway.
I suck at GOW online anyways, so I should be an easy kill for you all.

I feel 15 seconds would be ideal for the bleed out time but unfortunatley there is no such option so i have decided to choose 20 seconds mainly as this gives the downed enough time to revive themselves if across the map but would at the same time give the downer the chance to kill them if close to them. Finally i think this also means the longshot is still effective at medium ranges but not the ultimate wepon it usally is at long distance.

Setting the bleed out time to 20 seconds = 10 seconds "true" time.
Setting the bleed out time to 10 seconds = 5 seconds "true" time.

Setting the bleed out to 20 seconds for host = 16 seconds.
Setting the bleed out to 10 seconds for host = 8 seconds.
Bit more unfair for the host on 20 don't you think? Anyway, fair enough that you think it should be 20, but the longshot is still effective long distance if it's set to 20 seconds.

For everyones information n benefit, full tests have shown that there is a difference in recovery time between for ON/OFF host:
10 second bleed:
ON host: can recover in 8 seconds
OFF host: can recover in 5 seconds
Off host advantage = 3 seconds
20 second bleed:
ON host: can recover in 15 to 16 seconds
OFF host: cab recover in 9 to 10 seconds
Off host advantage = upto 7 seconds
I think the guy with host wont be complaining too much, it's good to see that host takes longer to get up as it evens up the game and doesn’t make host such a power.
