New Maps?

[DaddyBone]

In a last blast before INF 2.87, I'm updating our servers with new maps... #1 is now running a modified community mappack, but I'd like to know suggestions on what the playlist of #2 should contain, and in what order.

Here's the current list:

DM-INF-Atoll.unr
DM-INF-Arsenal.unr
DM-INF-AztecaLite.unr
DM-INF-Belfast1972.unr
DM-INF-Bullecourt.unr
DM-INF-Bunkers.unr
DM-INF-CubanDawn.unr
DM-INF-Chasm.unr
DM-INF-MWH.unr
DM-INF-Norwich.unr
DM-INF-Peru.unr
DM-INF-Sicily.unr
DM-INF-TeethSO][.unr

Also, I'd like input on the camos for each new map, or even existing ones. Here's the available list:

Desert
Jungle
Urban
Artic
CT Black
CT Blue
CT Green
CT Grey
CT Street
Russian Spetsnatz
Russian Tan
Concrete Jungle
Urban 3
UK Woodland
TigerTan
TigerGreen

So, no one wants new maps to play on? Ok, I get the hint, we'll leave 'em alone....

Hey, Daddybone, with 2.87 close ( ) to the release, i guess very few people are interested in 2.86 play. I even uninstalled UT myself, just to have a clean install of 2.87 later

 

[DaddyBone]

Here's a news flash, tho - 2.86 maps WILL work in 2.87... Sure there'll be new maps out, but how long until they get tiresome? If the community gets more involved in map selection, they'll have a more enjoyable online experience... PLUS, for the new gametypes, old 'Standoff' maps will need to be converted. If the community gives SOME indication of WHICH maps should be converted, they'll be a lot happier in the end! As much as I'd like to magically make every server a place where everyone wants to play and loves all the maps, it ain't gonna happen... especially without input other than 'I hate that map'.

/End Rant

I don't really care what order you put them in but I suggest that you ditch Bullecourt and Azetca Lite and add in Flagstaff and Kazahstan. Many people like myself get a huge performance hit when playing Bullecourt with upwards of 300 polys onscreen making it too damn hard to shoot anyhting. Azetca Lite is one of the maps that takes an average of 30 minutes to an hour to complete which IMO is too long for a single map. The same thing can be said about Norwich and how long it takes to complete, perhaps it could be exchanged for one of my favorites from 2.85, Terrain. Lastly, defenately get rid of Teeth since most of us can agree its a piece of crap and I vote for Texas Bank to replace it. Back when you had all those maps running on one of your servers when 2.85.5 was around I had a blast playing on them and am sad to see you don't run them anymore.

Thank you! Yah, honestly, its just lack of input and the fact I have no time to play myself while getting all the INF 2.87 stuff together. I play them offline, and if they look decent, I include them. Obviously, what plays well on my system and offline is NOT always the best choice for the general public to play online.

Thanks to Bad_Chicken, we're working on putting into place a way to vote for and suggest maps for our Official servers. Hopefully this'll up and working for 2.87! I'll post in these forums when we get to that point.

Ok lets get some Camo Ideas as well, especially for Peru I know the Camos are quite close to one another and TK happen alot . Please fell free to email me at: INFMapAdmin@sobservers.com if you have any suggestions or a New map that you want in the rotation. We will be testing new maps as they come on scene and want all the players suggestions and or comments on them. When we get the Foum thread started I will post the link here so you all can come and speak your minds.

Thank you

p.s. [SOB]sllm is also involved in this endeavor so feel free to shoot ideas to him as well. The email addy goes to us both (and DaddyBone), so one of us will always be in the loop.
