Map Rotations

Why does the NS server still have the maps on the top5 server in rotation? It's no fun when you jump from the NS server to avoid Verdun, then switch back after 30 minutes and run right into the map that just finished rotation on the top5 server

The Main has the full rotation that's why; it's to offer something that few if any other high ranked servers can, variety.

The Top5 server just offers the Top5 maps of 2142 voted upon by the regulars. Were not going to eliminate those maps from the regular server rotation. Theres only what like 2-3 NS maps on the regular server, it's not an NS server.

Just works out that way sometimes. Why avoid Verdun anyway? Embrace it! It is a fun map.

yeah but to get started, when there is so little poeple, verdun is hard to play

**BrokenApe** · 03-12-08, 11:51 AM

true, but as Mury says.... damn you EA for not fixing at least that little bug, you could play the map on titan with smaller amounts of people and it was still fun ;(

I think I should just start a poll asking "Which map do you want to complain about next?" and make that the start map.

Early and late, any map is hard to play. We are never going to start with a conquest map. The reason titan and Verdun are used is to give people vehicles to practice with while they are waiting to get started. That may be the only chance some people get/use to try to fly gunships is when the pressure is off. Minsk pre-start and Sidi prestart is where I found a long time ago that I could put my tank on an incline to knock out titan guns.

Gibraltar just doesn't offer anything but a walker and an FAV. For the multiple hours we are waiting for people to show up, that just isn't enough. Get your buddy list populated, let people see where you're playing, get them here. More people make that map shorter by far.

Verdun is going to stay up as the start map for awhile.

I agree, lag. Start maps have to be chosen based on the priming ability. Big maps, with air vehicles, mechs, tanks, jeeps, walkers, and shit to do give those that are priming something fun to occupy their wasted gaming time priming the server.

Start with an infantry map, and all you have is walking around, and lameness.
