[PS1] Map Suggestions

[xP.Bo0m!? Profile]

....it's a freking nightmare since the vote for "nexmap" doesn't work wich I understand becose you can't actually vote nextmap since we vote for the specific next map, but at least can we add END MAP in voting? It would really come in handy sometimes.

It could be kinda contradictory to our voting system imo.
Sample:
there are 10 ppl on server. 3\4 is voting for 1 map and rest is voting for other maps but not one but for example for 2-3, so votes from thouse 6\7 ppl are spreaded on few maps. So less players vote can win, and many times its happening. Then, after map which is chousen you calling vote for End Map, and probably thouse 6\7 ppl who voted for different map gonna vote they would like to end map. So map which wins vote is ended.... and our voting system came up to bit pointless in this situation
That could result situation that we gonna play maps where at least half ppl want to play one map... Dunno i made my point of view clear XD

Maybe you are right, I wasn't really thinking about such situation, but most of the time when I connect I'm usually alone on the server or maybe with 1 player. In such situation if I want to skip some long map, I have to put all bots in attacking team to finish it asap. You know how annoying that shit is? xD

When you are alone, you can kick bots and do obj quickly Orrrrrrr you can vote for map you want

Yes I CAN VOTE for the map I want, but as mentioned above in my previous post, sometimes and I really don't understand how the *beep*, it loads map that I DID NOT vote for :/ and that is my friend, only time when I'm so close to RQ

[landser]

well, there are servers which run one map the whole day. given its not that common in ET because this game is more fun with different maps ...

the map voting system on our server makes maps only eligible for voting if at least 10 other maps have been played since the last time the map was played. and you can vote for 10 maps at the same time.

so it would be possible to combat the huge voting spread by lowering the g_maxMapsVotedFor from 10 to maybe 5 or 7 ... this way only 5 or 7 maps can be voted on, not like now 10.

and to tackle the "always the same maps" issue -without removing any of the "popular" maps by increasing the g_minMapAge from 10 to 13 or 15 ... this way 13 or 15 other maps have to be played before you can vote for the original map again.



personally i like the settings currently on the server and i dont mind playing adlernest, braundord, goldrush and oasis 2 - 3 times per day, as long enough players are online ... so i would let these "popular" maps stay permanentley:

Code: Select all

1.  Adlernest
2.  Special Delivery
4.  Goldrush GA
5.  Oasis
9.  Braundorf Final
19. Supply Depot

maybe count these 2, too
6.  Italy FP2
12. Venice


and switch the other maps with maps suggested here from time to time ... but of course, in some month more people will dislike even the popular maps since its just normal to get bored with the same old same old ... so once every year / years there should be a total new rotation maybe, well, lets see where this discussion goes ...

[Ninjadeer]

I see a lot of good suggestions and discussion here. Thanks guys!
All the wishes probably can't be filled, but we will try to include some of those at least even though it might take some time to get so me of the maps in rotation. I have a list of your suggestions and try to add all the new suggestions to the list.

When you are proposing multiple maps please do it as a list like many of you have done, it is easier to spot them from the wall of text. Like this:

"blablabla

map1
map2
map3

more blablabla"

About some other stuff mentioned here:
Btw. Do you remember map, we played some years ago
http://et.trackbase.net/map/6811/
When i saw 2nd pic i reminded that map, but that wasnt this... But there was also tight alleys in some old town. Many of stairs? And i think there was possibility of jumping on roofs. And at the end there was some long and large place where ppl were shooting with panzer, smth like in Minas on top... but maybe im wrong XD
Here 3rd pic is fimiliar http://et.trackbase.net/map/199. Also town\walls\map was in that climate. Maybe its even this map ...

I probably know the first map you mean, but unfortunately can't remember the name either. The second map was tested in some No Goldrush Night, the objective seemed interesting, but I think the map was unbelieveably laggy unfortunately.

The worst part is, when there are no admins on server and this map got selected (Idk how couse i never vote it), it's a freking nightmare since the vote for "nexmap" doesn't work wich I understand becose you can't actually vote nextmap since we vote for the specific next map, but at least can we add END MAP in voting?

The next map vote should work exactly like that, unfortunately there is a problem with this NQ setting and it seems like the vote doesnät work at all most of the times. I think I have requested Timo if he could create a possible fix for that with WolfAdmin.

the map voting system on our server makes maps only eligible for voting if at least 10 other maps have been played since the last time the map was played. and you can vote for 10 maps at the same time

This is how it should work indeed, but I wouldn't be so sure if it always really works like that. Some times it seems to me that there aren't as many maps played as g_minMapAge would require. Most of the time it should be fine though.

Ok, can we try this for start:

Nemorosus ----> Tank Busters

Darji ----> Library


Battery ----> Stalingrad

Delivery ----> Fueldump or Baserace .

Just try it for a change and see how it goes.

EDIT

Cathedral -----> V2 factory

[Ninjadeer]

I'm sorry it took so long, but here it is.

Surely these changes won't be everyone's piece of cake, but I hope everyone finds something interesting from the list

pretty much agree with this, would also add italy, snatch3 and paris to the "let allways on server" maps

for the new rotation: also keep the 3 extra maps (temple, daybreak and rushers11) and add:
-Capuzzo airport
-Glider 3.0.2
-Saberpeak


adding too many maps can have a bad effect ... small steps


i think fueldump needs 128 hunkmegs - players would get kicked ...

[landser]

new rotation with minicampagins has been setup for testing:

Mini Campaign, it means: you vote for the first map and the other two will follow without map vote.
this has been setup to mainly introduce new, unpopular maps - to give them a shot.
Please post your feedback about this new map system.

Will you only see Venice or Goldrush in votingsystem? Or will you also be able to vote Saberpeak/Oasis/Glider/Pirates ?

[Ninjadeer]

Unfortunately you will only see Goldrush/Venice, and not the maps that will follow them.

The rest were available for voting as single maps (not in a set of 3), but this feature was removed and currently they are available only by playing Goldrush/Venice.

1. Adlernest

Updated maplists both here on forum and on server.

New maps seemed cool, haven't seen some of those in years.

[xP.Bo0m!? Profile]

Ok, just spent nearly 2 hours to check ALL NEW MAPS ADDED . All maps are great and nice refreshment, I think most of them I played years back. Few of them are bigger, but on all of them objective is pretty simple, so I think people will like them. Western mapcould be awesome for some event (for shotgun war imk).

But also I have to mention 2 things:

1. There are 3 maps "bot's free" !
-Holy Grail
- Wolfsrudel
- Wurttemberg B1

2. There are two same maps in rotation, only different versions (with and w/o bot's)!

-Wurttemberg B4 (bot's enabled)
- Wurttemberg B1 (bot's free version) --> I mentioned this map above.

So, all in all really great maps for a change, just remove one of those same maps and maybe add another new map instead! Cheers!

They seem nice, but we all know it's not like I'm going to be playing.
Western seems nice for LMS as well as Shotgun War.

Noo, if you will host some gameday pls put western for shotgun. I wouldnt put it for LMS as there are too much roofs ingame for nub campers

[SpyCow Profile]

as there are too much roofs ingame for nub campers

Good.

[xP.Bo0m!? Profile]

Good.

You really want me to start ragequitting, don't you? Put some bigger map for lms, western is too small for that.

Nah, it's almost too big.
