I agree with OP, servers are playing the same maps now and admins always put the overplayed maps in the mapvote. I've yet to play roughly 60% of the maps for 1.0 because we continue to play the same maps. (honestly i'm so tired of muttrah right now i leave the server)

At the very least play the Alternate or Infantry layers of popular amps just to shake things up a bit. ;)

Isn't it possible for the PR team to start some kind of official server with a map rotation and no votes? I don't know how much of the donations are left at the end of the month but wouldn't it be worth considering starting an official server?

Also, they get to choose because they are the ones adminning the server all day, where as you are there for a round or two.

People don't have to be on a server if they don't like the rules.

No one is forcing you to be there. No one is even advertising servers to you.

Go somewhere else if you don't like how they do things, there is a whole list of servers to choose from, if there are this many of you people then go seed somewhere else.

People go to servers like CIA because that is where all the players are.

Servers like CIA would not be popular if people didn't like them over other servers.

Meaning more people like what CIA does than don't, or HOG, or whatever other server put sand in your vagina.

So it would seem Majority Rules here.
For me, it seems like CIA tends to crash more often than other servers.

So, does "admining" get harder when there is no mapvote? What a retarded agrumentation.

Then they have a dead server whenever the 4 overplayed maps aren't in rotation..

Sad but true.

The issue Seele to be in the maps.put up for voting rather than voting itself. Some players are put off by large maps because they Fear getting stuck which can be easily avoided by tagging vehicles along and caring for them.

I gotta say TG was by far the BEST server.

PRTA is very good. They don't do map votes much iirc.



But Trooper is right. The servers die if people don't get their map.


It's funny. Cause I remember HOG vote won Iron Ridge. Then like 75% of the players left. (So only about 24 players were left including me on the server.)


But really, there ARE servers that do the no map voting. Do you see them on the PR Spy? Nope. People are sort of spoiled.

I was talking to a new player. (Can't remember his name) But he was saying....

How many maps does PR have?
me- I think almost 40, not sure though... but the layouts are different for every map.
him- You serious? I only seen like 4 maps...
me- Yes it's very sad. But if admins don't do server votes, PR will have no players.
him-Yeah of course. I probably will not last a week on this mod then. kind of a waste of money to purchase BF2 for a mod that only plays like 5 maps.


The Devs should initiate a script... Server votes only allowed 3 times a day. :)

Yeah if admins do a map vote every 2 or 3 round will be reasonable least get a chance to play those other maps. i hope you admins at HOG and CIA can please try your best to do so i enjoy all maps of Project Reality

Think before you put up a vote admins. If you put up Bijar canions yamalia and Muttrah you might as well set Muttrah next.

Decide on the kind of map you want to have next and set a vote among similiar maps, like make it Yamalia, Bijar Canions and Burning Sands instead. Keep track of the maps that get voted a lot and give them a break when the time to vote comes.

You have best i heard yet correct Muttrah will win if Admins do just this i think it should get better and play the more underplayed maps if only the ADMINS of servers would look at this post here ;-)

Private Message admins.... lol.

But I have seen Muttrah get beaten by Bijar Canyons on HOG.

But the admins said that "Muttrah Won the vote..."

Which I loooked...

Muttrah: 13, Kashan: 11, Bijar Canyons: 34


Server Map Votes....

Admins decide which one...

Kashan Desert (Played 2 times this week)
Muttrah City v2 (Played 5 times today)
Bijar Canyons (Played yestarday)
Wanda Shan (Played, well I don't recall ever playing it)
Kokan INS ALT (played 1 today)
Kozelsk (Haven't played in 2 months)
Burning Sands. (Haven't played in a week.)

That is what I can picture in my head of the maps that have been played.

I met 3 new players. They probably will not return cause of the same old maps being played.

A lot of PR Veterans.... Don't play anymore cause of this reason.

So if PR servers started playing diff maps.... then PR would have 0 players. lol.
