Pizza Map - Do we want it?

I think the AKs did a great job putting the map together but personally I wish it was a map of africa.  A bit of desert, a bit of mountains, a bit of rain forest.....

No, unless i'm paid I don't want to do it myself.

Pizza Map - Do we want it?

I like the map... but I usually log off when I see it.  Ya I know, wierd. I think it has to do with the lack of a good fite. They are there, just not as fun as the smaller maps because there too much for too many people to do.  Personally.. I think the Pizza map should be "Timed" rather then "Reset", whoever has the most bases gets the perks at the time limit... sometimes it just lasts too long.

The pizza map usually gets reset faster than the others.  It's the map that doesnt often get stuck.

Opps put this in the wrong spot,

HA! Glad to see so many positive votes on the Pizza map!

I LOVE the pizza map! And wish there were more maps like it

Far as I am concerned Pizza map is the best of all the maps
It offers something for everyone. Furballers can still furball to their hearts delight. You get some great GV battles in desperate fights over VB's
Plus you can get involved in smaller more personal skirmishes of only a few. without having to go to a seperate dueling arena.

I for one dont always like the giant furball. often it hangs my system up with so much going on in such a small area.

reason from what I can see when an arena gets changed quickly is because those dweebs that do not like that arena or if their side is getting beaten badly, will jump sides to the side with the most numbers so as to kill it off as quick as possable.
My feeling on that matter is once you join a country,you should be forced to stay with that country for the entire arena rotation. OR you should be allowed to change countries only 1 time per rotation.

Clutter on the map itself is a problem, but I find it annoying on all the maps not just the pizza one.
mostly from those damn chess icons. Another reason why each country should have its own color much the same way AW did. That way at a glance you can see who the primary threat is.

Yep-

I like the variety of missions available. Finding a laszball errr furball is no prob is ya know how to use the ins & del keys to zoom the map.

400+ mph runs through the canyons are pure fun, IMNSHO.

I view the base height as a gameplay concession-it allows the Jug drivers a bit 'o fun-to the La7 dweeb's chagrin...  

And of course, there's  much opportunity to get by beeehind whipped in a gv..........

GO AK's
:D

 If only we could have a full screen map at the touch of a key it would help a lot.


That's it! The only way to have an overview now is lowest zoom and no icons, altitudes, names etc. on.
The user interface with the clipboard format is the worst part of AH.
It's far away from the overall game standard (grafics, FM, stability)

Btw: Pizza Map is the only map where I always fight the country with the least numbers (usually Rooks) going for a fast reset.
In all other maps I'm a Bish basher (or at least I try).
:p

Yes keep it and take mindanao out of rotation . AKdesert is the only map that we have that isn't too small . The other maps were fine when we never had more than 120 players online at any one time but nowadays we have over 100 on all day long .

When it's a map other than AKdesert you have two options, furball near your porked base or fly a getaway plane . The crowding could explain why there are so many in getaway planes nowadays and part of the reason so many choose suicide jabos instead of buffs . If you want to fly buffs good luck getting them through the red curtain around your country .

The only thing I don't like about the akdesert terrain is the rediculous elevations of bases near canyons . Do canyons really need to be 10k deep to function ?

It's really boring when less than 100 players are online.
Plz decrease the mountain's alt and map size.
