Bahamut Posted September 30, 2008 Author Posted September 30, 2008 So, what do people think - should I remove Hydro from the rotation? Or better, yet, how should the rotation be changed? As a reminder, it currently is: pl_badwater cp_dustbowl cp_granary tc_hydro cp_badlands ctf_2fort cp_gravelpit pl_goldrush cp_steel pl_badwater cp_well cp_dustbowl pl_cave_b6 tc_hydro pl_dustbowl_b4 ctf_turbine
EdgeCrusher Posted September 30, 2008 Posted September 30, 2008 I'd be all for the removal of hydro, but no idea what to put in its place.
atmuh Posted September 30, 2008 Posted September 30, 2008 It's because you touch yourself at night. ok thank you for taking my advice
EdgeCrusher Posted September 30, 2008 Posted September 30, 2008 ok thank you for taking my advice This post is now presented in Scream-o-vision.
atmuh Posted September 30, 2008 Posted September 30, 2008 if youre going to insinuate some kind of change in a users post you should edit it to reflect this change
atmuh Posted September 30, 2008 Posted September 30, 2008 i am beginning to want to take away anything negative i have ever said to glitch because he is a far better poster than this wonderful seasoned veteran
Zephyr Posted September 30, 2008 Posted September 30, 2008 I'm all for taking out hydro, I've had some awesome rounds on it, but the horrible ones outnumber the good ones. I'm also up for adding more gimmick maps, obviously not to the rotation, but about 8 of us had a blast on cyberpunk low-grav today. I love how there's actually music in that level too.
Brushfire Posted September 30, 2008 Posted September 30, 2008 I would also like to see Cyberpunk and Strider put in the rotation. So long as someone can figure out how to get into that damn DJ booth in the Pawty Clubgh.
Powerlord Posted September 30, 2008 Posted September 30, 2008 As a side note, I added pl_strider_b9 to the server a few days ago, after it was first mentioned. Whoops, I suppose I should have said something. As for Hydro... it either stalemates or one team tends to blow away the other, depending on how the team balance is. It actually bumped badlands as my least favorite map because of it. I would LOVE to see it go. I almost suggested replacing it with ctf_well, but then I remembered how much that ones sucks (cp_well is OK, though).

Oh, and to the person who created epsilon: I commented before about how the control point didn't reset when sudden death started: It doesn't on any of the official maps either. For example, if sudden death occurs on cp_granary, if your team had four points out of five, you start out controlling four points out of five.
Secret Agent Man Posted September 30, 2008 Posted September 30, 2008 I'd like to see Hydro go too. Not only because of the reasons already mentioned, but also because of the fact that the server tends to empty out when certain maps like this come into the rotation.

It actually bumped badlands as my least favorite map because of it. I would LOVE to see it go. Maybe it's just because I haven't been able to play as much for the last little while, but I can't remember a time that I saw Hydro stalemate, and I've rarely seen one team blow the other away. I personally like Hydro, but if others want to see it go I wouldn't be too bothered, particularly if it keeps players on the server.

Well, I was counting Sudden Death as a stalemate, even though it really isn't (unless the server is configured not to do Sudden Death).
Bleck Posted September 30, 2008 Posted September 30, 2008 I like Hydro. If we're getting rid of maps that random pubbies don't want to play, why not just kill of every map except Dustbowl.
Zephyr Posted September 30, 2008 Posted September 30, 2008 I would also like to see Cyberpunk and Strider put in the rotation.So long as someone can figure out how to get into that damn DJ booth in the Pawty Clubgh. Hehe... I showed Rawk Hawk how to get in there the other day... I definitely DISagree with getting those on the rotation, but I'm really glad to see that their on the server. Oh, and Powerlord, I'm the epsilon guy, thanks for the tips.
EdgeCrusher Posted September 30, 2008 Posted September 30, 2008 Is there a way to have a certain rotation for one night, like an auto timer kinda thing? Cause just having gimmick night would be so easier that way.
Dhsu Posted September 30, 2008 Posted September 30, 2008 I'd like arena_lumberyard back just to have a change in scenery. And by "have a change in scenery" I mean "spite Atmuh."
Bahamut Posted September 30, 2008 Author Posted September 30, 2008 Is there a way to have a certain rotation for one night, like an auto timer kinda thing? Cause just having gimmick night would be so easier that way. Could always change the map rotation the morning before to what is desired for a day, and change it back the next morning.
Tensei Posted September 30, 2008 Posted September 30, 2008 I'd say keep hydro in. I haven't played any games that were outright bad on it lately, it's just that it happens too often that both teams start turtling. It's downright amazing if the teams are balanced and offensive though, makes for some epic sudden deaths.
EdgeCrusher Posted September 30, 2008 Posted September 30, 2008 Could always change the map rotation the morning before to what is desired for a day, and change it back the next morning. Who all can do that? Cause we would have to kinda discuss this before hand.
Bahamut Posted September 30, 2008 Author Posted September 30, 2008 Powerlord and I both can change map rotations, although I suspect that Powerlord is around more often than me.
EdgeCrusher Posted September 30, 2008 Posted September 30, 2008 Ok cool. We need to discuss this in the IRC channel sometime and come up with a good gimmick list. I know we can take a few off of the 4chan server that are good fun, like bedrooms and yaaargh.
Dhsu Posted September 30, 2008 Posted September 30, 2008 I think it would be easier to just tell people to join the 4chan server.
Brushfire Posted September 30, 2008 Posted September 30, 2008 Hehe... I showed Rawk Hawk how to get in there the other day...I definitely DISagree with getting those on the rotation, but I'm really glad to see that their on the server. Oh, and Powerlord, I'm the epsilon guy, thanks for the tips. So you don't want to share that info with the rest of us huh? That is fine. I see how it is. Arena is not as terrible as most people think. I mean it gives me a chance to work on my commentary skills.
