ndisles has one of the best FT/TT setups. Far better than the lake-in-the-middle-FT map.
Why?
Because you start out low and have to climb up. You can stay low if you like, and also egress.
On that stupid map with FT in the depression (with the lake) you get 5k start fields with 45-degree slopes at the end of the runways going straight down.
First of all, that just gives the reuppers too much of an advantage. You get into 1 fight, and win/lose/draw you have 10k-15k enemy cons diving in on you because they started at 5k. It makes a big difference. Then, also, it's frakking hard to land when you want to, as most fights end up on the deck you have to climb at 45 degrees of angle to get up to the runway's edge! Forget if you're damaged, are losing oil, or (*gasp*) have lost your engine. On ndisles, you can at least glide/coast in for an attempted landing.
So I like FT as an idea. I hate that one stupid map that put them into the depressed lake.
