For those wanting to test custom maps...

We will have a solution to all your map download needs soon (thanks Kyhas for the help!)

I could add it to the rotation to see what people make of it?

Failing to kill Si with backstabs (since they don't work even with FF on against teammates), I pulled my Revolver, determined to take him down. Result: I shot Schlurbi dead.

Now, the spread of the Revolver loves to screw you over when you're fighting enemies, but it's actually funny when it actually helps you to kill someone (even if you weren't aiming for them!).

cp_junction_final, pl_thundermountain and pl_upward have been added to the map rotation.

no pl_mill for trials sake?

If that's the one I'm thinking of, I might add it.

I may test them with pl_mill.



In what way do you suggest it be changed? ie more or less time, etc?

Hey Si

This was meant to be in an email but my mind was obviously elsewhere today.

this man knows. Soooooooooo long for such a horrible map

I agree.

We cannot set the length of the one map because of how their servers work. (Well without it being a big pain at least)

IIRC RTV was not added because Met felt that it would just cause arguments over people rtving maps instantly which would make people just leave.

I do still think the solution is to drop the time limit and set the round limit to 2 as it is just annoying to attack but not defend, etc. But what maps Met did you think were going to be too short if that happened?

Heh, all a matter of opinion. First round I was like heh this is ok . Then second round I was like omg bad mapppppppp change D; Hated it ever since lol.

I like other maps being longer personally as well

Cutting the time limit could mean that long maps like Badwater don't last long enough for both teams to have a good crack at things.

If we have a small round limit of say, 2, then maps like Turbine or Mach4 probably won't last more than 5 minutes. I also have no idea how round limits affect multi-stage maps like Goldrush or Dustbowl (I'll try to read up about that).


I'm not adverse to trying to find the right limit of either rounds or time for all the maps, but chances are that the right time/round limit won't be best for all the maps. If only one or two maps do seem overly long/short, whilst it will be a pain as Si says, I will submit a custom map config so that we can set an individual time for that map, like Degroot Keep.

25 mins is normally a pretty good time limit for maps to be on. Maybe set to less for the likes of Egypt which seem quite unpopular.

A melee only map shouldn't be on for more than 5-10 mins . Ringking used to be on for 5 mins and it makes a nice refreshing change. But any longer / too often for longer makes it a very boring and unfun map.

... and this is a problem how?

Nothing wrong with Camp-The-Flag-until-we-capture-flag-and-critf*ck-the-enemy-so-we-can-cap-flag-again-and-repeat-once-more-for-win lasting only 5 mins...

Suggestion: Limit Heavies to 1.

I do not think thats a good idea hawke, but a general Classlimit of 2 would be appreciated.

I do not think that is a good idea

I've already spoken to John about a Classlimit, but never really got an Answer.
