I hope we can all agree that the pendulum, ultimately, needs to come to rest somewhere in the middle, for the sake of gameplay. When city defences were too weak, a defender could make up for it by hiding. When defences are too strong, the attacker has no way around it.
QuakeIV gives additional sound reasons for adopting the long-rage solution, at least on a test basis.
