Title: Small maps
Post by: Furball on April 17, 2004, 06:28:02 PM
400 or so people fighting at 4 or 5 bases on small maps.

The game has outgrown them. wish they would be removed from rotation.

There is a few I love and a few I love to hate...

Those that I love to hate allow me to appreciate the ones I love.

Kinda like chicks wouldnt you say?;)

They work during non-peak hours.. But by 8 PM Eastern time the crowd exceeds reasonable density for the small maps. It's impossible to find a small fight with every front-line base crowded with dozens of aircraft.

My regards,

While I find the smaller maps really really boring and overcrowded,
Cept for minindoodo which I outright hate

I dont mind them nearly as much  as I mnd getting stuck with them every time a big map is reset.
Its at a point where we're being stuck with the small maps twice as much as the big ones.

A week was too long for any map. but this once reset we go to a small map is rediculous already.
I'd like to see a 3 day minimum 7 day maximum for each map
 Or at least each map get a full 3 days even if 3 days was both the Min and the max.

That would give everyone a fair chance to play their favorite map.

Im not asking for anyone to be forced to play on my favorite maps any more then I am forced to play on anyone elses.
I'd just like to see a system that is a little more fair to everyone
and with the hoard warriors being what they are.
The current system is anything but fair to anyone reguardless of what map you like.

I was getting ready to rant, but I don't have to. DRED took the words right off my fingertips. :aok

The big deal is exactly that ... maps should not be re-settable in that length of time.

Maps that reset that quickly only prove that with the amount of players that we have now, any country that can orgranize a "horde" can rip thru a map porking everthing in sight and steamroll its way to a reset. Oh boy ... oh joy ... fun in bushel baskets if your on the receiving end of that.

I cringe at the sight of a small map. The gameplay and reset strategy on these small maps is so predicatable it borders on ludicrious.

Me too. In fact these days, I just log off. So I'm sucking royally through lack of practice...

What I *like* about the pizza map is that it's the antithesis of a small map.

I like a map that allows gameplay during the off-peak hours to be viable, those that are smaller or have a furball island in the center are most conducive to enthusiastic off peak flyers.

Small maps just don't work for a Fri/Sat/Sun night tho.
