Let's get an idea of what maps people would like to play this Saturday.

Vote for ALL maps you'd like to play Sat Feb 4th 2006. If one is not listed (I can only list 10), mention it in a reply.

Please keep this thread focused.

NOTE: Strike at Karkand is in by default :)
NOTE 2: The reason I didn't put Steel Thunder is because the map seems to cause significant lag. We can try it if people want to, though, so keep commenting on it if you like that idea.
NOTE 3: Don't forget to respond to UK_Force's thread so that I can get an idea what map sizes we're looking for! :) Right here: https://www.realitymod.com/forum/t3566- ... ttle-.html

PREGAME-UPDATE:

The map rotation I have set up now is:

0: "the_oasis" gpm_cq 16
1: "sharqi_peninsula" gpm_cq 16
2: "el_alamein_xxl" gpm_cq 16
3: "gulf_of_oman" gpm_cq 16
4: "jungle_fever" gpm_cq 16
5: "mashtuur_city" gpm_cq 16
6: "steel_thunder" gpm_cq 16
7: "zatar_wetlands" gpm_cq 16
8: "cp_abadan" gpm_cq 16
9: "songhua_stalemate" gpm_cq 16
10: "strike_at_karkand" gpm_cq 16
11: "strike_at_karkand_2" gpm_cq 16

Map Auto Sizer is enabled, so the map will be:
- 16size with up to 15 players
- 32size with up to 31 players
- 64size beyond 31 players

I've also decresed man down time to 25s and spawn time to 30s.

I've also increased the player limit to 40. If anybody thinks it should be 64, let me know. I'll need to turn off battlefield recorder for that.

Let me know if you have any suggestions.

You forgot to take into account player version. For example, Kubra Dam 32/64: Not so good for fewer players and generally a flag dance. Kubra Dam 16: One of the best maps in the game!

Well, I didn't forget.. Unfortunately the forums don't allow for more than 10 poll options :( Admins? Change this? :D

I am assuming by this list you guys are planning to run this on the test server?

I can try and get a 1.02 done for Thursday evening .. BUT .. um..... I am going to be going out of town, so will not be able to respond to any issues.

Up to you guys and Fritz if you want to risk it on a 1.02 (which has many fixes and in particular I am hoping to get some significant improvements to Steel Thunder).

Lemme know what you guys think.

Apparently you have never played with people with fairly O.K. pc's. I have a gig of RAM and a 6800GT and I lag on that map.

Normally during the evenings you can get a semi full server, so give it an hour probably. Also, during the weekends there are usually a full server at any given time. Hopefully this saturday though we are planning on getting a full 64 man server going! Should be fun!

Rules are much like you would expect. Be polite, don't exploit, try and join a team, and follow orders! Hope you have fun!
