So, I'd like to put in a request for a larger map rotation.

The maps we have are great but it gets boring playing the same gametype/map setup over and over. It'd be nice to see something like Dawnville TDM, Hurtgen anything, railyard DM...

Or even some of the bigger maps, maybe Foy CTF or Kharkov CTF. Big maps set to CTF tend to draw in people.

I just keep seeing the same 12 or so map setups over and over, and it gets somewhat old after a while. Especially with the huge emphasis on Obj. gametypes. Those are great and all, but you should really balance them out with TDM or DM gametypes to draw in more players.

But again, that's just my opinion. I'll leave it up to the clan leaders to decide.

-HELIUM

I guess everybody favors something in the rotation, so there's never something like a perfect rotation. I totally agree that seeing something else in the rotation will keep things fresh.
The only thing is, with big maps and the TDM game type, if there's only a low amount of players, the players that are online are mostly scared away. I've seen it happen in TDM quite often, and then the server runs dead. On the other hand, when there's a lot of people in the server they do attract more in these maps most of the time.

So this rotation is in my view quite a difficult thing to balance, so I'm glad i don't have to make those decisions.

When you like to play different maps, make sure you will join the RICS, cause we most of the times end up playing 1 or 2 maps that aren't in BE's regular rotation.

Yeah i have mixed Feelings about the larger map thing. reason being is because at night Wiggs doesn't have to switch to a whole new rotation and i don't have to skip every map for a small one. as far as Less Obj. instead of less object why not expand the Rotation by like 3-4 TDM or maybe a DM. Foy and them get the server instantly killed. but maybe medium maps and a larger. and it would be good to put in some bigger ones for the fact that smaller ones sometimes get hectic and ppl rage because u spawn and die

Im a fan of tdm rhinevalley with tanks and jeeps just sayin

I must say that i agree on that
Rhinevalley (+tanks and jeeps) are a lot of fun imo

Rhine will NEVER be in the rotation. We can try it in a RICS. Thats about it. Large maps kill the server, period.

I'd like to propose a few maps to be added to the rotation.

Dawnville RET
Hurtgen TDM/S&D/BEL
Bocage BEL/RET/HQ
Stalingrad TDM
Arnhem ANYTHING

Ill consider Arnhem CTF and Dawnville retrieval. TDMs are frowned upon and Hurtgen and Bocage recently left our server empty.

Dawnville retrieval could be fun, I never played that.

CTF on Arnhem is quite lame according to a lot of people, as there is not a lot of entry roads to the flags, and I've seen lots of people leave when this particular map came on. Would HQ be an option on this map? Of course we would love a part of Holland to be in our rotation.

I've seen alot of ppl leaving when arnhem pops on already, regardless of the gametype. BEL gametypes arent really wanted either, people go to a BEL server to play BEL:-) that's my opinion on this. I would like some other maps tough, but not those 2 and no bigger ones, as we dont have enough ppl on the server to make these maps alot of fun. Playing rhine 4vs4 isnt fun at all!
