cS_assault

[Renton’s Big Bro]

I grew up playing assault because mainly it was one of 4 maps available when cs first started. I love the map, played assault24/7 servers for months. Learned to play on the map. However it has developed an AMAZING quality. One might even call it magic. As soon as it hits the server, Boom, dissappearing act! The server empties faster than a raided charlotte club. Now while I love assault, it’s safe to say that it’s damaging to the server and it’s popularity everytime it gets voted into play. And while everyone can say, well the players voted for it. A lot of people vote for it, myself included becuase I know it can be a very fun map with an 8 v 8 or even a few less. The thing is, 2v2 it’s a sucky sucky sucky map. Not sure if I have enough sucky’s in there. So I suggest taking it out of rotation, or at least have a vote about it being in rotation.

 

The upside to keeping it in, It’s sure to keep bracket away from the server for at least 15 minutes out of everyday.

Moar like 20. But he gets 20 minute bans any time I play anyways.

I agree. Cs_assault is fun but not if we play it all the time…

Assault only sucks when all the people who are experienced go on the T team because they know they’ll rack up points. Assaults a map to be played for fun and not for point whoring. It might be interesting if the balancer could be used to actually swap the entire teams around just for Assault as well as the best players (if necessary) each round. It’d stop every decent player piling on one team.

One of the changes I did to the team balancer was to increase the number of players swapped as it corresponds to the amount of players on the server. Moving 1 person with 24 people on doesn’t do any good.

Hmm, will have to see how that works, I can see switching the best players from one team with the worst of the other going very wrong. As often its simply 2 or 3 people who over power any one team anyway.

 

Does the balancer take into account CT vs T team wins?

i love assult being a CT that is. in agree its the most fun when you got people that play as a team in teh 8v8 range… but even flying solo very fun map for ct’s as long as you push and dont camp… i have 3 strats i run playing solo and have the best time sinnking behind and rolling half the team…. but thats just me. ct’s must push or it is a ghay!!! map.

 

just rember alsways bet T all… and dont worry about your rank. and you’ll have a blast on that map

Yup. I love cs_assault, its fun as hell and in general I try to choose the team that has the harder time on a map because its more challenging and fun.

i usually hit autoassign, and figure i’ll end up as ct, but the few times i’m t it’s a nice bonus for hitting aa, but i have fun on it, but sometimes the ts can be *edited*s, just a little

Assault is one of the classic maps that actually survived the Source transition. I can’t say the same for militia, though I do have a great custom militia the server should probably put on. Anyway, I vote for assault if the best maps such as inferno and d2 aren’t on the same vote menu, and I have fun regardless of which team I’m on because when Cliffe redid the map he had the genius to add a fourth point of entry into the warehouse.
