Map you want revived most?
Okay, before I ask the question, let me first assert three assumptions the discussion will be based on (I know these are not entirely true, but from an intellectual standpoint, let's operate from these assumptions):
1. Maps that were formerly in Project Reality were phased out for, among other reasons, being outdated. Thus, if a map were revived, it would also have to be updated in detail and balancing to meet current PR standards.
2. The maximum number of maps that the Project Reality mod can have active in a current release (excluding alternative layers) is largely constant. Thus, were a old map chosen to be resurrected in an upcoming release, a current map would have to be phased out as well.
3. There are reasons unstated by the development team as far as the elimination of specific maps. Thus, this discussion does not assume that the phasing out of maps is based solely on being the oldest of maps in a current release.
Those being said, which map, formerly in a Project Reality release, would you want revived, updated to current PR standards, and included in a new release of the mod? If so inspired, how would you revise it? Then, assuming #2 to be true, which map would you remove/phase out to make room for the revived map?

Re: Map you want revived most?
I would very much like to see OGT "revived," if they were to pull a current map out of the cycle to make room, I'd probably have to say Fool's Road. It's a fine map "on paper," but in reality, I'd say it's a pretty unpopular map, as it usually kills a perfectly good server, imo, most people I play with avoid it like the plague.

Re: Map you want revived most?
My favorite old maps:
Operational Ghost Train- it runs buttery smooth on my computer. i love getting shot at while trying to crawl on the bridge and hiding behind the hedgehogs. Though i don't think the map is based on any real place...
Helmand Province- a nice open map with lil trenches? and bushes here and there. I always thought it was a fun map, though the new insurgency mode probably won't work well on it. (no more shooting at red cars with LATs)
EJOD desert? im not sure if this map was removed, but i havent played it in over a year but i really liked that map.

Re: Map you want revived most?
In: Ghost Train (enlarge the map a little, add a couple small attack helis)
Out: Battle For Qin Ling. (kills servers from my experience., but is one of the few maps that provide jet combat.)

A mix of Operation Ghost Train and Mao Valley, on a larger scale but just as dense still.

Re: Map you want revived most?
I have to say I'm still quite surprised many of your guys are missing OGT so much but cheers for your kind comments about the map 

Indeed, who would want more than to have squads of troops all lined up on the ridge top of a open sand dune with no cover just ready and waiting to be ran over by your DPV[R-DEV]PARAMEDIC.CA wrote:Oasis would be my choice![]()
