| Post subject: | Humble request for moar maps |
As discussed with bucky here my post humbly asking for a larger map choice. The current cycle and spapoints menu is starting to become stale. specially in the night rotation I understand the need to have a popular entry server that attracts random players but, Wouldn't it be an idea to make server 2 a server that has all official maps? Server 1 could then still attract the randoms and the regulars could play on map 2, amy, slayer, rei, johhny, me, etc etc. still need to fill up a server some nights and it would be fun to do it on a server with some choice. No need for complicated rules and shit just a different maps.txt for server 2. please thankyou Ow and I want to keep this discussion clean and clear: I don not want special things for the server: (like no crit, different respawn, no spread) So please post if you would like the official tf2 maps on server 2. |

The problem with custom maps is that they empty out the server. And my 'goal' is a filled server with more maps. We could go for a special saturdat/fryday night custom map evening: those are the most popular times so the servers will stay filled but for the normal evenings i think having all official maps in the rotation is a good place to start: we could see if the servers stays filled. Its like science: change one thing and compare otherwise you dont know what is working. |

A cycle with something along the lines of 2 normal maps, 1 (good) custom map should be doable. I know some public servers (Hampshire Heavies comes to mind) that handle it this way and they're practically always full when there's a normal map and at least 16 people carry over to the custom one. Another community called Band of Lovers do a custom map evening once a month, where they only play some chosen custom maps which the players can rate, and based on the rating they will put the most popular custom maps into their ragular mapcycle. They also usually have around 16 players minimum at any given time. Quote: Capture the Flag
I striked all the maps that I think 99,9% of all people won't enjoy * Double Cross * Sawmill * Turbine Standard Control Point * Badlands * Fastlane * Freight * Granary * Well * Yukon Attack/Defend * Dustbowl * Egypt * Gorge * Gravel Pit Territorial Control Payload * Badwater Basin * Gold Rush Payload Race * Pipeline King of the Hill * Harvest/Harvest Event * Nucleus * Sawmill * Viaduct  I'll try and do some research which custom maps I played and enjoyed in the past and post them here. |

Actually, while I think hydro is a shit map... this week I felt like playing it for nostalgia's sake o: And I think it works well for Hampshire heavies because the servers I played on had a mapvote, so if a custom map won then at least the majority wanted to play it.. |

2fort and well CTF are cool  Especially the Well one, perhaps the spawn location is the best but the rest of the map is awesome. |

I actually like steel, hoodoo and yes 2fort with the ctf plugin it is one big melee fest which is a good laugh and with the 20 odd maps in the official rotation. like i said only put it on server two: the tf2 regulars will keep it filled. Putting on a vote on which maps we want would defy the idea to have a full map cycle. |

Steel is popular for sure it gets bought all the time... But the idea is to make one of the servers run them all... even when only 80% loves m Since for the people who play it every night; the normal maps get boring. |
