wayfarer December 14, 2005 Share wayfarer Member December 14, 2005 Funny, after all this Italy bashing I just got off the server from a fantastic match on this map. T's were all over us up 4-0 some complaints were tossed around. Then we started winning. The game started to go back & forth during which there were several titanic clashes for control of apts. Turns out to be one of the best matches I've had in awhile. CT's won 9-7 Just goes to show you how strong teamwork can turn around almost any situation, no matter how onesided.

Clueless December 14, 2005 Share Clueless GC Alumni December 14, 2005 Italy is one of my favorites I enjoyed playing compound, it just got 1 sided and whining followed shortly after. I am not against bringing it back, we'll see what the other Lead Admins say. Port is very 1 sided, it's way too easy for the T's to take the boat, that map may be more even with scopes, because you can control it from a long range, and the sniping is pretty even, you can be sniped as easily as you can snipe someone else from just about anywhere. Dust is just too 1 sided, and as far as whooping people as T's because its fun? thats part of the problem, no one wants to play the hard side and get slaughtered, so it gets stacked on an already unlevel field, and everyone in the server just happened to "auto in" heh, i was born at night, but it wasnt last night. If more good players wanted the challenge, it could work, but in reality, it doesnt. I agree with Vovik, the customs are part of our gig, so we should keep them in, but we do have quite a collection now, so rotating the stock a bit to keep it fresh wouldnt be a bad thing. Good discussions, we have 5 rotations, im sure these ideas will work in there somewhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScubaDan December 14, 2005 Share ScubaDan Member December 14, 2005 If somebody wants to play Dust and there is an admin present, ask for it, you might get it. Then be prepared to play as T Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ice_Berge_00 December 14, 2005 Share Ice_Berge_00 GC Alumni December 14, 2005 I like the idea of mixing up the afternoon, evening and latenight rotations a little so that some maps aren't in all 3 (exa, someone mentioned take italy out of evening). Are there any other customs you guys would like to try? I'm working on the final version of my map so we'll have to see how it plays in an upcoming map night (no not this week's). Obviously not all the maps mentioned will be added, but I think we could get 3 or 4 out of the list so far that should be good for the server.

The CT's can enter through the hostage room and then have to try and escape with the hostages. Tends to have fairly good matches on it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we should trade aztec for another map, it is getting real old. italy i dont think is too 1 sided, it can be if the teams are stacked but that can be true with any map.

Demoner December 15, 2005 Share Demoner Member December 15, 2005 I think italy is overplayed and becomes old fast especially if the teams are stacked I think it just doesn't need to be in every part of the rotation throughout the day.

mookie December 15, 2005 Share mookie GC Alumni December 15, 2005 Part of why italy seems overplayed is probably just its position in the rotation. It'd be nice to see it get pushed back a bit and make something more interesting like piranesi the first map. That way when an admin sets up a custom it doesn't go right back to italy again after that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr.Cool December 15, 2005 Share Mr.Cool Member December 15, 2005 i dont play much on the weekdays, but wen i play on the weekends, i look forward to italy... im good at it =D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colonel Klink December 16, 2005 Share Colonel Klink Member December 16, 2005 My own opinion is that I'd love to see lots more maps added to the rotation, especially for this upcoming Christmas season. I'm not a big fan of dust, aztec or Italy but I don't mind playing maps I don't like if they don't pop up once every five maps. Just curious if and when a new map rotation would be implemented? Cheers, Klink Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr.Cool December 16, 2005 Share Mr.Cool Member December 16, 2005 we got any christmas maps in the server? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ice_Berge_00 December 16, 2005 Share Ice_Berge_00 GC Alumni December 16, 2005 not that I'm aware of Cool. As for the maps, I think we can make some changes soon. We won't be adding a lot of maps. We've played a LOT of custom's over the past months, are there any others that people really enjoyed or would like to go back to? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
