Title: Map name associated with arena server
Post by: Chilli on April 30, 2009, 12:57:38 PM

How about giving the name of the map that is currently running for the arenas (example: LW Blue Arena:  OZKANSAS;  LW Orange Arena:  COMPELLO ).

I like this idea to make it easier to locate maps for offline practice.  It also will make it easier for anyone monitoring the arenas to check at a glance.  May even make it easier to download maps before an event begins ( have logged in for a special event to find out the  map was one that I needed an auto update of).

Great idea. Everybody has maps they like and don't like. It would be great to know what map is where without having to enter the arena.  :aok

I do like this idea.   :aok Some maps I would not touch with a ten foot pole.

I did this back in H2H. I most certainly do agree with the idea here. :aok

I second this idea: often I found myself entering more than 1 arena to see what map is on, this would definitely be a great addition for me.

LOL Soda, I was beginning to think I had lost my touch.  :lol

Also, somewhere, maybe in the Wiki, there should be a place where the mapmakers are given credit.  I noticed on some maps there is a signature saying the name of the map and the by whom.

go one further and add in a thumbnail picture of the map, just so we don't have to learn which map is which and remember the names.

Maybe if some people decided to start making terrains after the new update that problem would go away.

Naaah! We just need to have more of the old map converted for 2.13! Don't know about you guys, but I like doughnuts....

Of course that would be nice. However, a game can't advance if it lives in the past.
