Allow supplies from the base to repair town.....

Lots of things can be done.... most would make some group very unhappy.



What if we took the smallest group in the game and let them run things... you know, like we are doing in the real world.  :rofl

~15 hours yesterday

Bishops rolled the map in about 4 hours after I logged in.

Rooks were winning when I logged in and looked to have it.

Beating a horse death at this point, but I still don’t get it - most players say they want more smaller maps like this in the rotation.  But as soon as these maps come up they roll them quickly.   :headscratch:
They're casting their bait over there, see?

It doesn't bother me so much if a map gets rolled quickly. It bothers me more when a huge map is up for 3-5 days or spans the entire weekend. I'd rather have the current players that are on have a chance at winning the map and getting the points for their efforts.

Wish hitech would explain his hesitancy to edit the map list here so we could respond to that..

Without his input these discussions are nothing more than ignored whines...

Send him a message,  or better yet give him a call. He might give you an answer.

Huh?

Then what come back here and state what his response was?

Or he can speak up himself for the product he is making money from all of us on...

In other words I don't think that's our responsibility

‘It doesn't bother me so much if a map gets rolled quickly. It bothers me more when a huge map is up for 3-5 days or spans the entire weekend’

Rolling the small maps so quickly leads to that though.

Having the large maps in rotation more directly leads to that.

To add to this, I think people really enjoy the action that comes along with these small maps.  Unfortunately, the smaller map equals less bases and faster resets.

So a fix to that problem would be more small maps for variety, and discontinue the large ones.  I though I remember reading several small maps have been submitted, and not in rotation.

Yes if the question can't be answered where it is being asked I guess I don't

Hitech rarely pops up in the forums because when he does, especially for questions like yours, he catches a lot of abuse.

He has enlightened us here in the past

Sorry he doesn't about this popular subject

I think the question is how hard is it to change the list of maps in the rotation..

Some say its as simple as a list ...

If that is the case then why can't we get it edited to remove the maps that provide the least action as that sounds like what the subscribers would like to try..

If it's more than editing a list and is more coding than is going to happen - all we need is a response stating that and we can move on...and stop our map whining as a way to try to improve the gameplay

I think an explanation for this can be described as the Nestle Quik Paradox.   One of the delicious simple pleasures in Life is a glass of chocolate milk made with cold milk and two heaping tablespoons of Nestle Quik chocolate mix powder.   I have it infrequently, so when I do, you'd think I'd savor it and attempt to make it last.   But try as I might, I cannot make it last beyond two gulps.   It's just too hard to put the glass down.
