What was changed on the Pizza map?  Just wondering because the auto-downloader kicked in while logging on this afternoon and downloaded the Pizza map.

I don't think anything has changed. I didn't have to d/l the terrain.

terrible map.. no action at all on the pizza.  The fields are too far apart and that promotes ultra timid behavior and lack of action.  worst map we have by a long shot.

Yep.. Pizza map sucks rocks. Log on in the morning hours (EDT) and you fly all over the place and are lucky to get 2 or 3 enemy to shoot at. I hate pizza.

This thread isn't about whether or not Pizza map is good but rather was anything new added since I had to download the map on Friday when logging on.

Next time, at least post something that has something to do with the thread in question and not some little agenda you're trying in vain to promote.

Changed? I think those dark spots are anchovies. I'm not sure they were there before........

Amen. i could barely find a fight and there was a severe lack of interest in any body gathering together for missions. People seem to be a bit pissed off on this map and theres plenty of squeaking going on too. Is it just the map ? i dont know but it sure seems like it. I can tollerate the pizza map but a week of it is hard work. and we are only 2 days into it!

I really like Big Isles though as in that map , although thesame size as pizza there seems to be more areas where people gather and its easier to SEE whats going on in the whole map. Pizza is almost too dark to see and the zoomed out map and map room map are useless for moniotring or planning things. It was an admirable try by the AKs but it just doesnt work.

Couldnt we adapt it a bit? maybe turn those huge pizza slices into a more believable shape? make more of the map water with plenty of ports? move a few bases on the outer edges closer together for laz and other furballers and put the HQ nearer the center of countries territories.The HQ is far too vulnerable and the altitude of it often hinders the defenders!. Once te base next to the HQ is down its almost impossible to defend the HQ. It takes you 40 minutes to fly there from other bases!!! a dead straight coastline for 400 miles is a bit silly and so are the 16k valleys. Its all a little bit silly.

One change I noticed _ enemy GV spawn points no longer show up. Is that just new on this map or is that new on all maps?

We put a crying corner on the map.  Folks like Lazs go to the tower (at this special field) and say anything over channel 1 comms.  It's not heard by anyone except those folks at the crying corner.  It's kinda like an IRC room.  Lazs has long needed something like this -- public displays are often very embarrassing for the BKs.    S! BKs - The AKs are always willing to help with problem kiddos.
