Hi guys, those of you, who played TFC might know the map "avanti". Back then, it was by far my most favourite, however Valve did not officially publish a TF2 version of this map. Now, since I found a fan-made version of the map, I was wondering, whether SpA would include this map into their servers, so that one could buy it with his SpA-points? I'd really appreciate that, the map really is awesome. Here's the description and the download: http://www.fpsbanana.com/maps/52688 Greetings, Sawyer |

I suppose we will have another testing round sometime soon to see if we are going to include some more maps into the spapoints menu. |

I don't really know.. I guess there were some 24/7 Avanti servers, but I can't really remember if it was that popular.Reminds me of cs_italy gibb: Yeah, Flagrun was awesome, too. It was quite well-structured and the way the map worked was kind of innovative. That's what bothering me most about TF2. I mean, don't get me wrong, the game's great. If it wasn't, I wouldn't play that much, but most TF2 maps simply consist of Defending/Capturing control points. Flagrun had a totally new aspect, Avanti combines both Intel and Control Points. That's why also think, it should be available on the SpA servers. It's different

Still in b1?  Cmon I played that map 6 months before... Anyways, I dont think the gameplay works too play. Its a TFC map after all and 1:1 copies of tfc maps just dont work for TF2. 2fort fails warpath fails and now avanti fails as well. (Yes I know, well is a tfc map too, but since it wasnt only converted from ctf to cp but _also_ has made significant design changes its a good map  )The map isnt even beautiful. It looks like a CS 1.6 map. I wouldnt play it regularly. |

Wait. 2fort doesn't fail because it's a TFC map, but simply because people rather stay in their base and make it an impregnable fortress (haha, 2fort - fortress, what a pun Cmon I played that map 6 months before... Anyways, I dont think the gameplay works too play. Its a TFC map after all and 1:1 copies of tfc maps just dont work for TF2. 2fort fails warpath fails and now avanti fails as well.

Go on a server with any CTF map running: At least half of the team will have garrisoned inside their base (mostly as engis or snipers). Thus, if only 3 or 4 people in a team of 12 players try to get into the enemy base, grab the intel and get it to their base, it's not suprising that they fail, since these 3 or 4 people can't really cope with about 6 or 7 defenders + sentries.You will see this problem on Turbine, on 2fort, CTF Well and on any random CTF map. |

I'll use SaintK's enigmatic line: This map doesn't meet the SpA quality standards. ;-) Really, there are so many better looking maps with good gameplay... |

I admit, the textures look a bit dull, but really: The gameplay definitely makes up for this. |
