Control point timing

From TF2 Wiki

The following information on Control point timings is from research conducted by Warskull and originally posted on the Control Point podcast forums at deadworkers.com.

All times have an error of ±1s and are rounded to the nearest second. Note: This information is currently unverified.

Base capture times

The base capture times are the rates to capture each point depending on the amount of people (the multiplier) that are on the Control point.

Multiplier	Seconds	Rate
x1	1.00	100%
x2	.66	150%
x3	.52	192%
x4	.43	232%

Note: Capture times do not reduce any further with greater than 4 people on the point.

Decay rates

Decay is x1.5 (or 66%) of the base capture time. During overtime the Control point times decay at an expedited rate.

Example: If a Control point is captured for 30 seconds, it takes 45 seconds to decay to nothing.
