SpectatorPlease give me your thoughts on the current mapcycle and how you think it is working. I see the server full all the time but have heard a number of recurring complaints over the past few weeks.
Speak your mind because everything is on the table, except SK3’s removal. <_>

Spectatorit feels like i’ve only played dust2,contra,mill,inferno and strike…i dunno, maybe i just really miss nuke for some reason, it was always a good relaxing map (even if it was *edited*ty for ts).
population seems to be high most times so it must be pretty good, so i don’t have any suggested changes

SpectatorI like the current rotation but yeah I haven’t played nuke yet… and I am a wcu server junkie so i dunno what’s up with that

SpectatorMy only complaint is prodigy… It is essentially suicidal to play as a terrorist…
that is unless there isn’t an awper on the ct side… I humbly request its removal…

I MUST HUMBLY AND LOUDLY DISAGREE@!
I enjoy it even on T although I don’t normally do very well on T.. I think it’s only 10 minutes anyway? .. if not prolly should be lowered to 10 but please don’t take it off

SpectatorTrue, map rotation is winrar right nao. Prodigy is FUN on both sides…nuke is NOT in the rotation, no wonder you gais haven’t played it…

SpectatorThe current rotation is in the sticky.

SpectatorJust curious why Train is still 15 min and I would humbly ask for Italy to be gone..such a bad map
February 4, 2009 at 7:22 pm #70240Pinkmonkey#18
SpectatorYes, italy SUCKS!!
February 4, 2009 at 10:05 pm #70262AngelEllaine
SpectatorItaly isn’t that bad as some of the others I can name. But then again some people may like
train or italy. And no, Italy does not suck >.>

Spectatori like the map rotation, however, i do have to agree with #5 on the prodigy thing. That’s the only map i don’t like. if you wish not to remove it, i can deal with 10 mins of prodigy. as for italy, it is such a great map. idk why so many ppl don’t like it. A lot of ppl say it’s t-sided, however, i enjoy it as a t or a ct.
February 5, 2009 at 11:32 am #70301enough
Spectatori think prodigy should stay 10 minutes of it is fine. i agree on italy, again 10 minutes wouldnt be that bad though.
how about more sk3?? ha j/k id love it, but i think some would be mad
February 5, 2009 at 3:15 pm #70320YahooEarth
SpectatorWould it be possible to change the start point of the rotation like once a week, because I(and others) often get on to play at the same time every few days, and we end up playing the same maps, not that I am truely complaining here since it happens to be my favorite maps on the rotation, but still…just a thought…

Spectatorfrom what i can tell, prodigy empties the server every time. whether or not some individuals like it or not is irrelevant. the fact of the matter is this: when prodigy comes on, more often then not, we lose alot of people.
other then that, i like it. i miss nuke, but what are ya gonna do.

the only time ive seen it empty a server was at 2 am…. and I play a lot as u all know
February 6, 2009 at 5:13 pm #70379Ex
Spectatorthere needs to be a breakup between the cpl maps and strata and the other customs its like you play the normal maps and then you have like 6 or 7 customs in a row and that hurts the server
February 9, 2009 at 10:55 am #70554Renton’s Big Bro
Spectatoryeah i’m gonna agree with ex on that one. And it seems to be strata everytime. I don’t know whether it’s by that point I need a break or what, but I always leave at strata, and see lots of others do the same. I could do without fire, it’s very dark and is hard for me being colorblind. I demand it be taken off or I’ll report the server and college to the AAPD. But other than that, I think it’s fairly good, I can prob play for an hour or two at a go. Not as good as the old rotation, but you’ll have that with the new custom maps. And keep prodigy, it’s a great old map and the vents are so much fun. Flash down the vent, jump down, start spraying into a mass of T’s rushing long hall, soooooo much fun.
February 9, 2009 at 3:14 pm #70577MasterP
SpectatorI can’t create a fresh rotation with new and exciting maps if all anyone wants to only play are the old maps.
February 9, 2009 at 3:33 pm #70580AngelEllaine
SpectatorYou could have two servers then *ahem nothing new here*.
One will be strictly classical rotations, like d2, office, etc etc.
The second will contain the weird cal-maps, custom maps, and etc.
Having one gigantic rotation is just going to frustrate a lot of people
who just want per say want a few specific maps instead they have to
ride out the whole gajillion map cycle.
February 9, 2009 at 4:25 pm #70584Renton’s Big Bro
Spectatorone of the main draws of this server, is and always has been the classic maps in the rotation. The rotation has always been mainly a combo of classic maps. That’s why I started playing here and continue to, I know it will always have some good fair maps and some good competition. So why would you change it to something “new and fresh”?

February 9, 2009 at 4:47 pm #70597Liam
SpectatorRenton, the public voted the map rotation in. Again, see my other thread about you being here and not being here and whatnot. When things are up for public vote again on the rotation, then feel free to offer your input. As it is, the rotation works, people like it, and so it will stay.
Believe it or not, we do monitor what maps fill the server and cause it to pop and which don’t. kthxbai.
February 9, 2009 at 5:44 pm #70601Renton’s Big Bro
Spectatori agree and i love the votes, what i’m saying and everyone that’s played here awhile will agree, the draw to this server is the core set of standard maps… we even tried another server with just customs and it lasted like 2 weeks. Until brian came along and threw some things in there we no custom maps.
And why can’t i put my input in on the thread titled, current map rotation, public discussion. I think that’s actually where my input would belong on the matter? If not let me know and i’ll post in the right thread.
February 9, 2009 at 9:19 pm #70618enough
Spectatorpersonally, i like more maps…. i get tired of playing the same thing over and over. plus a lot of custom maps are better than the classic maps, especially in balance.
add more! haha
February 10, 2009 at 11:15 am #70669BallzinurJawz
SpectatorYo MasterP…is there any way to maybe update the map rotation more often??? Like maybe switch up maps such as fire, prodigy, and strata with other custom maps, say every couple of weeks or something?
I’m not sure if that is practical or not, but it would stop the complaining on maps that are generally not liked if everyone knew that the maps would be switched up soon enough.
February 14, 2009 at 12:23 am #70911AngelEllaine
SpectatorThe thing is, you can’t make everyone happy, but you can hope that you can keep them from whining/crying/complaining about things everyday. The people here on the forums only represent a small portion of the regulars on the server; although we can wish our opinions just mattered more than those unspoken >.> Getting them (the unrepresented half) to participate is hard too, some don’t bother registering, others just bleeeeeeh….
We can post on what we think I guess, but it’s not really fair to just be constantly demanding every thing/rule/map to be changed so often on the whim of a few even if we’re admins or not. If anything, everyone had their chance to speak on the rotation, so just deal with it for now unless it’s going to end the existence of the server as we know it.
February 14, 2009 at 2:50 am #70926Lemm
Spectatoryeah i officially withdraw my vote for prodigy.. i wish we could play it like every now and then but i don’t think it really needs to be in the rotation right now
it would be great if we could copy the rotation and put prodigy in like every other rotation just putting the same maps in and then include prodigy every other time but I don’t think i really helps.. I don’t think it really hurts a lot either since its only like 10 minutes but it’s annoyingly ct sided if you can’t get the t’s to rush with you.. just like de_dust
