Im excited to see a new map in the rotation. Who made it? Some interesting spawns too!
-
Nice!!!!
Haven't seen it, but I am happy to hear it!
-
I made the map called "Northco". The intent was to focus action and minimize sneaks. Last night the action might have been a bit too <cough> focused on the Knits. Saw the same 2v1 last time the map was active. Not sure if it's the map or just the way the game is played these days.
Anyway, glad you enjoyed it. :D

Knights only had about 60% of their bases on another map over the weekend. When I came back a few hours later, they were winning the map. The tide can easily change with good team work.

“Team work” being the critical factor.

image of map?
Considering the lack of content additions anything new like this needs to be at least announced IMO.
Thanks for the time and effort you put into making it popeye.

Thanks KONG for making the new map.
I didn't see it in the MA but I downloaded it and had a couple fights in the player created arena.
Anything GOOD and new is welcome. I think it is a good addition. Thanks again. Sir!

Knights and teamwork go hand in hand :rofl
We can in early morning US hours at times, but usually Bish are a lot more base taking oriented at that time. Horde for some reason seems to surprise :headscratch:

Great addition KONG...thank you! :salute

I know right!! Never understood the secrecy of it...

Looks like a great map from what I see. Lots of choke points and not too many far apart bases. I like it.

Must be because there is nothing secret about it.

No secret, it just doesn't last more than a few hours when it comes around in rotation. Guess it needed more choke points. :D

Most guys complain that the maps last too long, now they change too fast. :headscratch:

If there was nothing secret about it why wasnt announced is what I think he was saying.
IF you caught it that first time it was up you knew about it, but I think it came up during the day and it was reset before the numbers grew so only a small number of people saw it. The message board only had this note....
Well, it went live today and lasted about an hour.
First 23 Bish and 8 Rooks attacked 6 Knits, while ignoring each other. Then, when the Bish had 25% of Knit bases, they attacked the Rooks who ignored them to fight the Knits who made no effort to recapture their bases from the Bish.
Not exactly what I was hoping for, but at least it was something new. :D
"Added a virtual keyboard for VR...." This is huge!! Only heard about it for a post in the bug reports. :(
Anything new added to the game should have announcements here, the main web page, and all social media accounts HTC has. Get the word out, generate some "buzz" about the game.
The "News and Announcements" page was last updated on patch 9, we are on patch 12. The only place to see what has been updated is on the clipboard when you first sign in. To a new player it looks like the game isnt maintained. We all know it has many updates to fix things and this week we got a virtual keyboard along with a new map a few weeks ago, but all of that seems secret and you have to dig around to find the information.
Show the world that the game isnt neglected! Generate some buzz! POST POST POST!!!

Agreed. I was wondering what the changes were.

Patch 12 + 13
/********************** version 3.05 patch 13 ************************/
1. Fixed a distribution issue with htdlg.res not patching correctly
/********************** version 3.05 patch 12 ************************/
1. End Sortie now shows yellow if ending will cause a ditch.
2. Added virtual keyboard for vr, this can be disabled in the /options/preferences/vr
3. Fixed a bug that caused the Options/Arena Setup/CMTools/Weapons dialog not to work.
4. Fixed a bug crashing the film viewer when creating a 2nd avi of the same film.
5. rotated the some gauges on the f.2b to be vertical.
6. Moved the sights folder to the settings folder.
7. We now ship with a configured defsights folder that is read from if the file does not exist in settings/sights. This prevents conflicts with oculus trying to patch the sight folder.
8. Fixed a bug where the copy write string was showing threw the clip board in the VR title screen.

100%. About as free as it gets

Absolutely gorgeous map <S>
I came up in this game during a time when numbers were still high, large maps ruled, and sneaks were essential to winning the war of attrition. For someone like myself who mastered that aspect, this map gives the player a wonderful opportunity to both attack at will and swiftly defend when necessary.
Love the strat placement too. Having the Ack stations surrounding the AAA strats :rock :aok while leaving the city in a tempting yet easily defendable location makes both attack and defending the strats guaranteed action.
5 stars ye wise ol feller
2v1 is a given on a map like this. You either come out swinging or you get ran over on both fronts. Looking forward to playing this one when im back beginning of next year :cheers:

Haven't seen it, but I am happy to hear it!
Hear it???? We have maps that make noise?
OH, SHUT up fuzeman!!!!!!!!!!!!
Violator, I have something funny to tell you about the 2018 TOC prize I gave you.
-
Thanks, FineTime, glad you liked the map. :salute
I uploaded a second one with fleets and a similar base capture strategy, "Reefs". Not sure if it will get into the MA rotation. Working on a third, "big island" layout. These compact maps don't seem to last long in the MA, but that may be a good thing -- variety, spice, and all that. :D

I think that you can download "Reefs" from Choose Terrain in the game, and fly it offline. The big island terrain is still in the oven. :D

Ah, 'reefs' wasn't what I was expecting. You do good work but that map is more like 'lakes.' :old:

Turned 71 a week ago
Not on that often, but keep the sub active for when the bug bites

I actually like that a map that doesn't stagnate too much

Yeah, it lasted about 14 hours last time up which is probably long enough. :D
