Map Rotation

I agree... it gets pretty old sometimes. It would be nice to see some of these maps come up more often.

I saw some new maps come up today... we had an awesome game @ de_losttemple_pro tonight

CT: 11
TER: 12

probably one of the more fun rounds on a map I've ever had. Great teamwork guys...

You know for as long as i have been with TTP, ive never played Contra. I love that map!

**ShOoK** · 07-09-07, 06:43 PM

Yes that game of lost temple was very exciting! teams looked uneven just cause they had some big names for T's but ct's pulled together and took it to em. A great night for ttp.

But back to my original question. When the map vote comes up is it a random list of maps or is it selected by the admin? and if it is random, is there a way to weigh maps to appear in more votes?

id like to know how the nextmap votes are determined.... why is pirinesi, dust2, aztec and chateau always up there?

I dont think I've ever seen a custom map appear in a random mapvote.

I still havent played losttemple_pro since the powers that be uploaded it.

What are some maps you'd like to see totally removed from the server?

I'll start.

de_dust
de_aztec

Everytime de_aztec comes up I votemap losttemple_pro - its a superior playing environment.

Also, I cant stand when haters rag on maps like de_train. Train is a teamplayers dream IMHO. It has multiple paths to two very unique bombsites that can be covered and assauled in several different ways...its a lot of fun.

anyway - keep on rockin - I just think some of the universally hated maps should be replaced by some new classics like temple and office07 etc.

I think we need to keep some of the staple cs maps like aztec in. The are great maps and people enjoy playing them. But i do however agree that some of the custom maps we have need some lovin'. Any admin able to tell us how the mapvote list is determined?

**Toker** · 07-10-07, 06:00 PM

I say we perma-replace cs_office with cs_office_07. That map rocks! So much better than the cheezy normal office. Atleast it looks like a real office and there are different ways to go instead of garage or long hall. My .02...

5. cpl_mill
5. Contra
6. Twilight
7. Miami

Now thats a fun vote! dont get me wrong i love my bread and butter dust2 and cobble, but i think itd be refreshing to see some of these sweet maps.

What would happen? Sadly, the server would empty. People like the same old shit, dust2, aztec, office and Italy over and over. Other maps are in the vote options, but people never vote for them, its always those four maps constantly...well 90% of the time anyway.

whoa whoa whoa. im not saying make every map vote look like that. Like i said i enjoy the same old shit too. Im trying to improve what i do on those maps, so when they come up i vote for em. If admins do have control over the list of maps to be voted on then do the normal votes but say every third or fourth time throw in the vote i suggested. That way we still get our old favorites the majority of the time and in addition get to spice it up with some different maps.

also we have yet to receive an answer about the customization of the maplist. Does the admin make the list of maps to be voted on or not?
