orange arena
« on: July 07, 2008, 07:43:18 AM »
Anyone esle sick of that map,seems like it`s been in there for months. When will they make  some new
maps? (yes i know players do it for them) I`d pay another 5 bucks a month for them to hire somebody to do it,or give a guy they already have some over time. Maybe give a player 6 months of free play for a new map or something.Why can`t they use some of the maps from FSO`S? Yes i know they r made 2 sided and not 3 but can`t that be redone easier then making a whole new map. Why can`t old maps be redone to work in new ah2. Can old maps be added to or expanded? Don`t say go build 1 either,I don`t know how and would rather pay others to do it for me.

Flayed1 has a map in the works, but since HiTech decided to change his arena setup, Flayd hasn't worked on it. I'll have to ask him about it.

It seems like every week we have a thread on maps and we never hear anything from HTC. Why not? I too would like to know they can't use old maps from the past. They worked once, why not now? :salute

It's not the lack of maps. There is just no rotation in LWO because no side is able to reset that map. You could have a hundred additional maps and there still would be Ozkansas up.

That's why this humble snail is wishing for the reintroduction of the weekly reset.

Perhaps this idea's been pitched before...

Leave LWO as it is.

Limit LWB to the small & mid-sized maps and cap the arena at 240....24/7  No need for a reset in LWB as the smaller maps would be easily won.

btw...couple of years ago when the rotation/weekly reset was in play, I recall a deafening roar for large maps. Maybe we got what was wished for  :aok

Agreed Uptown... It seems like there are weekly map rants (I know I've posted a few :lol).
The solution seems simple enough...
1. Loosen up the rotation... add a few "wild cards" in every now and then.
2. Keep the 1 big/1 small concept going... THAT seems to work well.
3. NEVER repeat the same map in succession and NEVER have the same map in any two arenas... (see point 1).
4. Always have a fresh map for Titanic Tuesday (don't just rename the Arena) and have a fresh map AFTER Titanic Tuesday... NOT just a rename. This will further make Titanic Tuesday more of an "Event". Maybe restore the Monday arena back on Wednesday morning if possible.
5. Limit some of the tired old maps (err... Baltic, NDIsles and Uterus) to "wildcard" status.
6. Use the Players as a resource to make NEW maps... maybe offer an incentive for those who submit maps that are adopted for MA Use. There are allot of very smart and very willing players in this game... unleash them on us, the unsuspecting community! :aok

We have had the same map in oranage for ecleast 4 weeks now. I think most people have given up trying to win it, I know I have. Seems everyday your fighting at the same bases and no one has taken any new ground.

It's gotten to the point where I only fly TT now, all the other fights are so old. And yes, even if I do get ganged by the rook horde ( :D) I still go back because there are good dogfights to be had.
