Bahamut Posted December 5, 2008 Author Share Posted December 5, 2008 One of my main concerns about Zephyr's map is the side-by-side spawns. It is too easy to camp the spawns. Other than that, great map. I just need to see how it is with a full server, or at least more than 3v3. That was my concern when I first saw the map. Perhaps an opaque wall needs to be used between the two? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scufo Posted December 5, 2008 Share Posted December 5, 2008 I'm not sure if this was the intent or whatever, but the map's pretty wide open. As it stands, a good sniper can pretty much dominate, while pyros and heavies are mostly useless. Every game I've played it's been a contest of snipers, soldiers, and scouts, with the occasional spy thrown in to mix things up. Although given, the biggest games I've played there have been 3 vs 3's, so maybe things would liven up a bit with more people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WindStrike Posted December 6, 2008 Share Posted December 6, 2008 I just came up with an awesome idea. However, it involves friendly fire. A demoman fires sticky bombs onto a scout, and the scout runs into a group of enemies, and the mines are detonated. Better yet, blast a demoman over with more stickies or something. I dub the idea as a Scout Bomb. ... also, I intend to be on tomorrow (plus it's my birthday then). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sensai Posted December 6, 2008 Share Posted December 6, 2008 That'd be awesome, Wind Strike, if sticky bombs stuck on people. And happy birthday! I probably won't be on tomorrow, and if I am it won't be until late. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brushfire Posted December 7, 2008 Share Posted December 7, 2008 Happy Birthday Windstrike. Sadly due to my current bosses inability to be cool, I won't able to celebrate your big day by burning, mini-gunning, back-stabbing, or healing you in TF2. Unless there are folks on around 1700 here. Which usually there aren't. Anyway, best regards bro. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WindStrike Posted December 7, 2008 Share Posted December 7, 2008 Well thanks to all of ye who wished me happiness (which it has been so far). Anyhow, streetninja and I are duking it out.

Powerlord Posted December 7, 2008 Share Posted December 7, 2008 Since we don't see a lot of normal games on the server, I've changed the configuration to default Alltalk to on. Also, it doesn't take much to get people playing on normal evenings... I was actually on to teach two of my friends who just got the game (Kurtis and testdummy88) on Friday, and we eventually got up to 16 players. The problem with having a password locked game is that you limit your potential audience... we had all of 10 people at our highest county today. Granted, it does keep out any trouble makers and clans that team stack (BB was doing that Friday). Speaking of BB, I forgot to tell Dr. Tiddlywink why I did a Team Scramble on Granary during Friday... it was to separate the BBers. By that point, the teams they were on had dominated two maps in a row. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brushfire Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 I had a blast yesterday (but I think Atmuh did not like me censoring his Extended remix of "Never Had a Friend Like Me") and I hope to do it again today. Although it is Monday evening where most of our readers are at, I do hope there is a good turnout today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brushfire Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 What happened to your car? A windshield is something folks definitely need, especially with winter coming soon. Unless your an Aussie. Speaking of Aussies, deos anyone know what happened to Presh? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Powerlord Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 What happened to your car? A windshield is something folks definitely need, especially with winter coming soon. Unless your an Aussie. It developed a huge crack along the bottom of it. My insurance covers all but a $100 deductible. Speaking of Aussies, does anyone know what happened to Presh? That wanker went off to join another server. That reminds me, time to bug Bahamut to clean up the admins list and also remind him to remove people who haven't paid their reserve slot fees lately. As for me, my reserve slot is paid up for some time, considering that I've paid almost enough for 11 months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brushfire Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 Don't remove me!! I'm good for it!! It's just that Christmas is a huge drain on my bank account. Expect my tardy payment of $20 on the 15th-ish. Don't take away my joy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sensai Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 It IS Christmas. It just wouldn't be fitting to deny Brushfire his joy. And Presh hasn't been on for at least a month. I kinda miss that wanker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zephyr Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 I pay 2 months at a time, it works out quite nicely. Almost sad how little use I get out of it lately though... people need to play more! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
