can someone explain me the rules on turbine? So far I understood that only when you cap 5 intels the round will change and you need to win at least 2. Won’t it end up in one hour game?

No.
The timelimit is 30 minutes, like on any other 5cp map.
The command “tf_flags_per_round” determines the number of flag captures needed until a team scores a point. So if one team captures 5 flags, it gets one point. The round is restarted automatically after that.
The winlimit is 2. So if one team manages to score 2 points (by capturing 5 flags each time), it wins.
If the score (in points) is a draw after 30 minutes, the team that currently has captured more flags wins. If the number of captured flags is equal as well, you play an infinite golden cap round until one team captures 3 flags.

Turbine rules (it really does)

Turbine will be played with a 30 minute map timer in a round based format. The first team to reach 5 flag captures will win a round. Like Gravelpit, the first team to win 2 rounds will be the winner of the map. If after 30 minutes the teams have won an equal number of rounds, the team leading in captures is the winner. If captures are also equal, a new game with first to 3 captures should be played to decide the winner.

Hope that answers your question….ermmm no is the answer. Although I suppose the first to 3 ‘golden round’ could potentially go on FOR EVER!!!!!!

Edit: Damn you CanFo!!!!

In theory a golden cap round on a 5cp map could take forever as well if neither team captures the middle point :]
We will see if there will be many stalemates/golden cap rounds and adjust the rules according to the experiences. However, I think these rules will work pretty well.

I don’t get it :/ If you get multiple rounds to cap 5 flags (that’s what it says, right?) then why not just do 3 x 10 mins so everyone understands it? Confusing rulesets should be banned :D (fix gpit rules while we’re at it? :D)

Dont see why you didn’t just go with the 2×15 or 3×10 minute rounds myself. Then you can’t get an infinite match.

Glad to see it back, not so glad with playing a third different rule set… :/

bo3, cl 5, general timelimit 30 should be easier once things get going (no 3 screenshots required, no config edits, no round restarts). And hopefully less vulnerable to stalemates. It should play nearly the same as esl/esh rules.

Wireplay and ESL both allow draws. ETF2L does not (anymore).
So we needed to find a way to make the ruleset less vulnerable to stalemates (as Racio pointed out).

What’s wrong with draws anyway?

Also, Wireplay uses round win difference to determine bracket winners when 2 teams are equal on points. PLEASE DON’T COPY THAT <3

3×10 minutes leaves no room for draws.

We’ll need just as many screenies as we would with 3 rounds… unless the scoreboard shows round wins and not caps somehow???

Less vunerable to stalemates….granted.
