DTV more time before new round starts

Sometimes, I'm playing DTV. Then I decide to change characters. By the time I reconnect, the round's already started and I have to wait for the round to end before I can help. Please extend the time it takes for a new round to start to about 20 or 30 seconds, so players can make appropriate changes to their characters before the round starts. I know there's the time you get before the rapists spawn but that only amounts to 10 seconds or so :x

Yes, this would also help the defenders by having time to plan their defense.

Maybe some day they'll call us heroes.

DTV and planning  :lol:
Current time is 20 seconds, take away 2 or 3 seconds that you spend in "stuck" part of the spawn. It would be nice to extend it to 30, definetly would add some edge to possible plans and char-changes.

He's not the hero DTV deserves but he's the one they need.

Perhaps we could have a brief period before the enemy spawn timer starts (say 1 - 3 minutes) where we can deploy things like siege shields, spikes, and possibly ladders, as well as for everyone to plan out things (excluding that one douchebag that charges regardless of the enemy) and get into positions.

siege shields etc would only lead to more exploiting of the map by getting on houses you normally wouldnt get up on etc

what bugs me is when a new round begins and i decide to change my gear i only have a few seconds to do so, if i take too long i get kicked
quite often happened that i changed my whole gear, weapons and full armour and then i got kicked cause it took too long
if that "kick timer" could be extended by a few seconds as well that would be great
For all the non-believers, look no further than this thread for proof that while strat battles are won/lost in NA3/EU3, strat wars are won and lost on the forums.

But exploiting the map is the only way to win! Also anyone else noticing an increasing amount of swingthroughs with the bots

I mean come on People who play DTV arent the melee heroes you need, most of them if not all are archers.

play a run on EU
archers are but a support class

melee people win the rounds 99% of the time
