Give defenders some extra time if they manage a point reset.


I would say the following change to capture times would help defenders a lot:

Upon reset:

-60 seconds capture time.

Optional: consecutive reset(s) within the next minute (or two) :

-30 seconds

(To prevent recapture abuse and penalize losing the point again a bit, while still giving players some time to work from a momentary recapture)

Why? Because simply taking back the point often means nothing other than the player risking all to reset it getting shot, due to the ticker system hardly having been influenced by the time the attackers recapture it.

It also allows defenders to move on a bit sooner and allow them to try to control the zone, rather than just the point (which is something attackers need to do) as they are likely spread thinner than the attacker.
