I'd like to see the data for your facts please.

I like new, yet familiar maps.

TeamPlayer Gaming - Maps

Strikes number 9. I too never thought Strike was unbalanced. T is hard to call on it tho unless you know what you're doing. I think that's where people get screwed.

With that said, Max's map is still neat and I think it would be fun to play on.

Ahhh. Cool. I didn't realize we had those kinds of stats.

I like Strike & you definitely need to know how to get the CTs moving in order to get what you want.

I'll let everyone in on one of my secrets for calling: GET THE CTS MOVING! If they stay put, they'll almost always have an advantage. Then after you get them moving a few times, they'll stay put longer, start hitting a site full force. Almost always the result is a larger T force hitting a smaller CT force.

These stats can be misleading in determining true balance of a map. On many maps the more skilled players will stack to one side to offset the imbalance one way or the other of the map. My best guess is if you had two identical teams, impossible I know, playing each other on strike the CTs would win out more often. I always like to use my old analogy if if you could clone Vafa 19 times, and have two 10 man teams all of Vafa who would win? I still stand behind the fact that the CTs would win more than they lose.

I think a 10v10 Vafa battle would be flawed as Vafa would know Vafa's tendencies.

yea i don't know how people always manage to forget that the teams get balanced pregame or during to the game which severely throws off the stats

Bingo. Scrum was always good at doing this on Strike. He could trick even the best players sometimes.

We had the CT double-spawn issue again tonight in Strike. Sos had to suicide .

This map is pretty much finished now. Play test this weekend?

Edit: Also, should this map replace Strike (as in remove strike from the server)? Perhaps a question to be answered after the play test.
