Ok, you’ve all had plenty of time to play on the new map rotation. I want to see what you think. If you voted anything but “It is fun and good for server population” then please post why.
Also, here is the current map rotation:
dust2
contra @ 15 minutes with stats
piranesi
[sk3 or deagle5] @ 10 minutes no stats
inferno
season @ 15 minutes with stats
dust2
[italy, tides, nuke, aztec, lost temple, or train] @ 10 minutes with stats
cbble
mill
office
We still lose people on SK3 and deagle5. Maybe put in an advert that says that SK3/D5 don’t have stats tracking.
If we can get the word out that those fun maps can be played without penalty I think more will be willing to stay.
Also might want to add an advert that says sk3/d5 is ONLY 10 minutes!!!
I voted for fun, BUT I hate Train with a fiery passion and generally leave when it comes up…I also disagree with taking Office out of the rotation for the second time, especially when I have been on the server several times when Dust2 has cleared the server…
But that’s just me…
Maybe should just keep sk3, and deagle to a vote only option or something. It’s pretty annoying
when you lose people and some don’t come back for a while or at all that night. But otherwise, meh,
some maps people will like more than others.
But like Yahoo said, maybe bring back Office, it’s not a bad map at all..

Office is still in the rotation, just at the end and not the middle
i think we have a first here folks i do agree with yahoo about train being a horrible map and tbh it clears out 25% of the server or more when it comes on so maybe just take train out totally since i dont hear people complain about it not being played i HATE aztec but it is only for 10 minutes and it hasent been played for a while so i can suck that up but we will just have to see if that kills the server even tho its only 10 minutes
I’m going to leave this up for a few more days before I close it… but I think overall everyone likes the rotation and some people have gripes.
Yeah the server has had people constantly playing on it during normal hours, with the fixes like lowering the amount needed for an rtv, i think it’s perfectly fine.
This might just be me, but I actually don’t like office too much. Because office is a “rescue the hosties” map, there really is only one way to accomplish the objective, and it gets pretty boring round after round after round. T’s camp in the same spots, CTs rush the same places, rinse, repeat. Only rarely do we ever get the more intrepid players who Rush garage as T, or hell, try to ninja the hosties
out from the vile grasp of the
.
Dust2, at least, is unpredictable. The T’s can do any number of things, for instance, fake the a long A rush only to go B, etc… Office, on the other hand, is just rescue the hosties! Rush garage if you’re T and we can catch them by surprise! Again, this might just be me, but I don’t find it that appealing. Once hosties are being moved, a couple of t’s just go camp garage. Fun.
Office really shares the same problem with Italy, only the T’s don’t have as much of a camp advantage.
I’m not trying to beat on Hostage rescue maps, but its a fact that they usually just end up being team deathmatches, whether the CTs try to rescue the hosties or not.
I just wanna see some new maps.. I really dont care I just get sick of playing the same ones over and over again. I am dust 2 out.. I would rather see dust 1 or something like that.
i think mill should be in middle… d2 every 4-5 maps, i’m finding a new server, 10 map rotation is pretty *edited* small, can’t play it for long at all, it really bring down the length of time people stay in, I’m not going to wait 4 rotations to play nuke or something different from the norm… I’m going to jump on another server. U can make the argument it’s not 10 maps… but it is… cause u play 10 and it starts over with… MORE D2!!! OMG… d2 in mid to d1, throw some of the maps you hvae stacked up back into the rotation. I think some of the time limits are stupid, deagle sk3 should be the only ones. if you are having problems with people staying for a long time in the server… shorter time limits on all the maps – maybe it should be 15 min every map… or see earlier in my post.
are people really bashing hostie maps? why does it turn into dm? do i need to have another counter-terrorism seminar… looks like it…

lots of good ideas here
I say extend all the map times anyways. Playing a map for 15 minutes-20 minutes is extremely annoying to me. Go back to the old 20-25 min timelimits. Then for fun maps make then 10-15 min. I enjoy being able to actually build kills up on certain maps. I also think we should add maps like fire and strike back into the rotation now that we have a steady pop to keep the server up. Both are even maps and i guess to me…more fun than some of the others
here’s 10 cents, my 2 cents is free!!! lol

FOR GOD SAKE….give me some of that sweet Militia and Aztec…PLEASE!!!
QFE.
Especially Militia
I think we could lengthen aztec, mill, lost temple etc and add one more map to the general rotation.. I need some suggestions for the map though
Strike or Fire. Or maybe tuscan but it’s pretty similar to Mill. Also, there are a couple of Eco maps that are pretty cool. I’d have to go look for the files but they are usually very even maps that are DE
prodigy and strata are good but they do kill the server, but we’ll see whats on the next poll to add into the rotation
You can make that argument for chateau as well, but I have also seen chateau and prodigy fill the server at random times of the night…I would assume due to their old-school nostalgia effect…
