I find my desire to play sucked away when I look at this map.  All the bases are very low altitude.  And from what I've seen, the position of the bases cause furballs.  So far, I'm not a fan.

Agreed about the suckyness.......First of all....A23's town is about 15 miles to the North of the base?  WTF????

Second, the map looks god awful on the clipboard....

and finally....well i dunno, im done complaining

Was this a HTC map or a player built?

[Max]

Everyone gripes about "same old-same old" maps. Someone takes the time to build a new one and ya'll gripe about the shortcomings. Kinda makes ya wonder.

[doobs]

nice change of pace. I like the DMZ lines.

not to mention that the towns far away from base means I can kill toolsheds, port'o'potty's, hot dog stands, and small churches
at my leisure.

your goin see alot more noe on this map for sure.

i dont know who made it but for your efforts.

i will say withough the heads up, the whole map room in another sector of the base was messing up alot of people.

i will say also, it does promote "furballing" over an area, and from some people in the game that is not what they are looking for.


it is s tough line to "appease" the MA crowd, and there will always be complaints, whatever the situation. in my personal opinion the trinity map (after it's revisions) has been the "best" in appeasing people.





if i may make a comment on the current map, the clip map makes it quite hard to read standard green base icons unless zoomen in very close. may i suggest making the lower terrains a darker color to be able to read it better.

thanks

You can easily alter map icon colors too.

should i have to do that every time i log into the MA?

also, tell me a color that shows up well as friendly icon AND clip map information for "country"

dark blue looks great on the clip, but fly over water and you can't read a single enemies icon.

what magic color do you use?

promotes furballs?

there's way too many empty sectors and deadzones...

which timid sky accountant/toolshed killer made this map?


i dub it....

Me personnally I use:
Friendly icons = White
Eneny Icons = Red
Squad Icons = Yellow

Country Icons:
Rook = Blue
Knit = Red
Bish = Orange

That what i use, I don't use green at all, hard for me to see against the ground at times. Or blue like you said about seeing them over water. Only time I lose friendly Icons (white) is if there directly in the sun, which isn't to often.

Correct, the few sectors with players are packed.  Most of the map is empty because there's no reason to fly to the middle of nowhere.

I had some good fights up north against the knights.  I quite like the field, vh,vh, field layout.  The 2 vh's served as a focal point for the air fighting.  With the 2 sides fighting over the vh's, there was much less knocking out of fh's and fuel.
