Do you want AS and VCTF back on the server?

I heard that we just might be getting AS and VCTF back on Vipers. Could be interesting...

I'm all for AS on the server, but I'm not so sure about VCTF. If we get silly maps like BloodGulch and MilitaryFort again, then I guess I'm sort of against it. However, if we also get a bunch of serious maps as well, like UCMP2-RiverCanyon2, that would be nice.

What do you guys think?

I'm all for AS.

Not sure about VCTF, at least not with those crappy maps Nereid mentioned, and others.
If we're going to have VCTF back, no unserious or weird maps, please. :)

Voted AS only.
Unless we can get some good serious maps for VCTF, I don't want that.

I kinda want them both back. I know those VCTF maps are silly (and many of them are meant to be), but there are plenty of good VCTF maps out there. When I think of VCTF, I think of having CTF, vehicles, and fun, not OMG LET'S CAPTURE FLAGS PRO STYLE LOLOL. :D

Both, but you've got to use a mutator to enable the translocator in VCTF. I can't stomach playing without it, and yet it's not possible without a mutator to fix what some patch broke.

I don't see how Bloodgulch is any sillier than Romra.

And make sure you put up AS-Confexia and vote it in a lot just to annoy JD :p

Off course
I want them both back. :tup:

@Olga: VCTF was removed because in the end, more people were goofing off than actually playing. That only happened on certain maps, though (you all know which one I'm talking about here). But hey...I even want VCTF back even if it only contains AggressiveAlleys-FragBU-beta and RiverCanyon2.

I voted AS. VCTF was pretty craptacular.

I did always have fun on BloodGulch though because I always just tried to see how many manta roadkills I could amass before the match ended (record was 52). Now that we've gotten rid of VCTF I totally suck at running people over in mantas. :(

The only real problem with AS is it is very team-oriented, and a couple goof-offs on a team could spell disaster, and usually did. People were more apt to give up during an AS match than anything else on the server (as far as I noticed), and while AS may be a good gametype with good teams, it's horrible without them. Not worse than ONS with crap teams, but close. More people gave up in AS than ONS by far, so it made it seem worse. Half (random guess) the people on the server seemingly had no care whatsoever to learn how to play AS and this dragged down the quality of play a lot. If we're serious about putting it back, then we should make sure everyone at least knows what's going on and will be committed to trying. Otherwise it'll just be a replay of all the crappy matches we played before and it won't be worth it.

I wouldn't mind if either were put back on if we could be promised worthwhile VCTF maps. And BloodGulch. I need my manta practice again. No, AggressiveAlleys is not a good map. I don't remember Raffi's beta version though; maybe that has some worth.
