You have done an excellent work with the new maps, are nice to play and discover... but i want to say that I miss the old maps, like Zatar, Daqing and Gulf of Oman. :cry:

He's complaining that all the servers play only the new maps all over again...
they are new, it is only natural people want to play with new toys... :roll:

give it time and once ppl have got into the new maps, they will play the old as much as the new.

That was my point tho - many people moan about having played old maps to death :p If server admins rationed the playtime for the shiny new toys, the playability and novelty factor could be made to last a whole lot longer, relieving some of the pressure on mappers :D

Mainly, the server owners should think about their map list.


Instead of putting all the new maps on the beginning of it they should be spread out.



I was kind of sick of yesterday's

#loop

Muttrah
Ramiel
Korengal
Tad Sae
Barracuda

server restart/crash

goto "loop"

tbh, I don't want see or play Fools Road or Qwai River until Christmas, because I had enough of them in 0.7.

So the new maps only is fine with me, as long as they put some other maps here and there like 7 Gates, Ejod..

I would love some decent EJOD - only one time I had a round on a 64'er server since 0.7

lol, simple solution... add crazy hidden easter eggs and insane pick up kit to the old maps with the random placement system. That'd keep em busy :lol:

WTF this is asome idea !!!
or just make old maps with diffrent game mods for example Qwai make insurents ( just example)
or even to add to old maps more viehacls or just new structurs
like to ejod add more building or just few new things and people will feel like they got 20 new maps insteed of 5

The "old" maps have been changed one way or the other, but if you don't play em you want know.
I like the idea of adding a few "extra" assets here and there.
For example even something like a chopper on some maps could change
the "order of things" and give it a "new" feel.
However: the new maps are like new women: people will keep banging them
for as long as they can.
