Need to use more interesting maps..

Postby Vortex » Wed Apr 04, 2012 8:07 pm

Most servers I see nowadays use the same-old boring maps, when there are a lot of them out there, that they just don't try, for example look at this video (No advertising his trailer, but there are some damn good maps in there):

http://youtu.be/F4jJ9wYX5dk - See from 02:23 onwards

I don't know if I am blind or servers with such exotic maps are hiding, to be honest big servers like Minit, Goonhaven or Shams should use them. Yes the Bridgewars and Normandie are good, but I think more imagination is needed.

Just an idea to try look for better maps every month or so, to see what you can get.

Depends. The community makes the maps. Ask them to make a new map for you.
To a Physicist, white and black is the presence and absence of color.
To a Fine Artist, white and black are just shades and tints of color.
To a Painter, any paint that you could get into a can is a color.
THIS color, on the other hand, is #b4d455.

I agree. too many simplistic maps out there
I don't see why more people don't makes forts. even if not useful, they're a lot of fun

Minit has just added 2 maps to the rotation, but I am not sure what they are.

Why doesn't anyone use my maps?
Sure, they aren't anything outstanding, but there aren't many maps that feature Australia or Black Sea I would assume.

They probably just haven't heard. be sure to email them, and also put both the pictures and the download link on the very forums you stand upon!

Ahaha, thanks. I had to look around for those maps used in the trailer. :)
