Post by: 8903 on January 16, 2007, 11:31:45 PM
New Maps , my god these maps are played out. I know it takes alot of time to build one....But it would be great to see some new layouts.  I know I am not the only one who would love to see this?

I don't play MA, but I do have most of the MA maps. I just want to know, are you guys tried of the same maps, as in shape, size, and setup (as in bases and factories), or is it just that you hate playing the same map over and over?

I'd like to see a map with 3 distinct continents separated by enough ocean to require the use of a drop tank.  Give each country a pair of CV's, maybe some ground spawns in the water for LVT's.

Then we'd actually experience some of the terror/excitement of a real invasion.

Edit: It might be unliked for insta-furballers but...it would definitely be nice to try.

Yea the guys who like to fly short range fighters be real happy with that.

Not to mention bored to tears.

Wait for CT  you will have plenty of that.

They could assist in the invasion, learn some the benefits of teamwork, maybe try a plane other than the LA7/Phoon.  

But really, there's really no way to please everyone, just adding my wish to the list.

Wish aside .

If they are having fun doing that why would you want them to stop ?

If they wanted to do what you state they can do it now.  What you want is to force them into your style of play. IE setting up maps where interceptors have limited use.

Not trying to be confrontational.  Trying to get you to look at the other side of the coin.

What if HT only let you up buffs  from rear bases. I'm talkin just the ones close to HQ. I could rationalize it by saying. Hey might force the heavies to Fly a more realistic sortie.

Just a suggestion for the wish, nothing more.

Again, just a wish.  People can play how they want, I don't really have a "style of play", e.g. I don't always up the same thing every time, I'm up for anything most of the time.

Coin sides duly noted, but can't a guy just wish without being challenged?

I don't fly buffs, but it would be nice for a change.

The whole point of my wish, and this post (I think) was someone saying they are bored, so my suggestion was to try something new.  New will be different from old and not everyone will like something new...but unless we are willing to try something new, we will be stuck with the old.

:confused:

I want everyone to have as much fun as possible, so that they all log on, so that I can shoot them. Long flights only encourage more "realistic" tactics, which pretty much means "fun" goes in the ****ter. Not good for most people, especially me.

How about make a map of North America, with the Rooks being Canada, the Knights America, and Rooks Mexico. The capitals well be placed at the exact spot in RL. Add large fields to large cities, medium fields to medium size cities, and then add small fields some where else. Sounds kinda fun right?

Hi chaps!

AvA maps are the best I've ever seen in AH. Could be a little hard on the frame rate though...

But they are sooooooo beautiful...

Whatever happened to Trinity, FesterMA, and Donut that we once had.  Those maps I miss.  I miss the big maps where furballs werent hard to find.

Those terrains are gone because of the arena format change. Hitech mentioned that once they get settled into the new layout they will begin accepting large terrains again. Currently I think the largest map size their accepting is either 128 m. x 128 m. or a 256 m. x 256 m.

Anyways, if you guys want more MA maps, do yourselves a favor by learning how to make them. It's not hard, the guidelines simply make it seem impossible.

^That will help you get on your feet with terrain editing. The only thing it doesn't teach you is how to make an operable MA terrain. To learn this, just ask questions in the Terrain Editor (http://forums.hitechcreations.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?s=&forumid=61) forum.

All the old timers in my squad say they love the pizzia map. I've never heard anyone say they didn't like it. So, yeah, lets have the pizzia map back
