New Maps

[TiberiusLazarus]

So TF2 has been out for well over a year. I find it high time we start expanding our experiences with new custom maps. I just now added a few new maps that we can try and see if we like, and then possibly add to the rotation if we so choose. The current new maps are available for download from links below:

pl_swift - http://www.fpsbanana.com/maps/77363
balls_soccerv2 - ***CANCEL, DOES NOT WORK!!!***
cp_horus_b3 - http://www.fpsbanana.com/maps/40506

Got more maps that we should try out? Reply here and we'll see what happens.

[Black Hawk]

Warpath.

[UPSWeezer]

Warpath.

And snofort.

[primesuspect]

Yeah, snofort. I loved snofort.

new maps tonight.

yes

[the_technocrat]

I still say orange_x is the best map for getting clan pactice in. Most action per minute than anything else I've played. If you're looking to get good at hand-to-hand combat or efficient engi operations, I haven't found a better place to do so.

Just play on the laster versions, like v3 or v4, less bugs, more fair.

[UPSWeezer]

I like orange_x too. v3 is the bomb.

Thread revived.

With the new server has come some new additions in both maps and other things. Our current map rotation:

cp_gravelpit
cp_granary
pl_badwater
ctf_2fort
cp_well
tc_hydro
pl_swift
cp_badlands
pl_goldrush
cp_fastlane
ctf_turbine
cp_steel
cp_warpath_final
cp_egypt_final
cp_dustbowl
ctf_snofort_final
cp_junction_final
plr_pipeline
ctf_well
pl_hoodoo_final
cp_toy_fort

There are also a couple more maps that I am adding to the server that we can play and see if we want in the rotation. These are: pl_cashworks , cp_glacier , and ctf_aerospace .

Again, if you can think of a map that we should try, make poast.

Ah, I see.

Move to strike Fastlane from the rotation.

Ah, I see.

Can we adjust the rotations to switch it up a bit? I mean: instead of going through all the standard maps, then all the custom maps, could it be interspersed a little more?

I tried to intersperse the maps a little bit, but I was just kinda randomly moving them around. I'll look at it more when I get a chance, or someone can post a list here. I don't care.

[Buddy J]

Mess up the mix! Mix up the mess. Come on down, yo, here's the address!

cp_gravelpit
cp_granary
pl_badwater
cp_well
tc_hydro
pl_swift
cp_badlands
cp_fastlane
ctf_turbine
cp_steel
cp_egypt_final
pl_goldrush
cp_dustbowl
cp_toy_fort.bsp
cp_junction_final
plr_pipeline
ctf_well
pl_hoodoo_final

[DocFrazier]

is there a shuffle function? whereas the rotation is not set except that is wont repeat one map untill all in the "rotation" are played, or the rotation resets after an admin change?

aslo, could there be a post outlining all the new commands, if there isn't one already? :)

[Bobby1211]

11/21 of the maps listed in TiberiusLazarus'ess's..es' (?) post are CP, I vote on

CP, nonCP, CP, nonCP....

as much as possible.

Also just to throw it out there, request thought on a couple variation maps:

PL_DB_Heights (Dustbowl Payload)

CP_Badwater (CP Badwater)

Played Toy Fort for a little bit, but it seemed kinda "ehh". I do want to take a peek at it at some point though.

I know I have a few good maps floating around from randomly joining servers that It'd be nice to look at.

I'd also love to take a peek at pl_donkeykong_final :D

Oh, and as I mentioned in voice chat a few nights ago, myself and a few Turnip cohorts are in the process of making a map. It'll be a bit before we have a beta version, but it's coming along nicely. When we have a beta version, we'll let you know.

[Buddy J]

Toy Fort works best with larger teams. Black Hawk and I got in on a fun match on that map on a random pub the other night. It reminds me of the old de_rats CounterStrike map.

[Quady the Turnip]

Looking over my list of maps, I have many silly maps that I love to play but don't really fit with Icrontic methinks.
I do have a few awesome maps worth checking out though...and guess what, while looking for links...it turns out they're all made by the same guy:
http://www.mrmof.com/?page_id=9

Out of his list, I highly reccomend ctf_moonwalk (normal gravity for most of the map, but the big central dome is MOOOOON gravity!), and I reccomend cp_redfort (haven't had the chance to play this with bigger teams though, so not sure how well it'd play out) and arena_wow (somewhat like a duel map). I haven't had a chance to check out his other maps, but if they're like those i've seen, they're at least worth a shot.

[primesuspect]

Moonwalk is AWESOME, it's a great map. We used to have it.

[UPSWeezer]

I have to reinstall steam then TF2 then maybe i'll play these maps again.

[primesuspect]

Seems like Aerospace is univerally reviled. :( I happen to like it, but it killed the server and everybody who was left kept bitching about this-or-that. This happened more than once.

[Koreish]

I haven't even seen all of our maps yet. I was really digging PL_Swift last night.

[primesuspect]

Swift is awesome. I really, REALLY like that map

[Quady the Turnip]

I think my current favourite "new" map is Hoodoo. I know it's not special to our map pack, but it's still new to me, and I'm really enjoying it.

[Koreish]

I kindly request that Aerospace be removed from circulation. The speed in which it killed the server tonight was remarkable.
