remove flameguards

add kerkyra

Please God No. That map languished on Jay 1 for years and was finally just recently pulled. Riverport should be next to go

personally i'm promoting Helmsdeep_b4 for the last 2 years: great map with tactical requirement, exclusive features and very good balance throughout the map.

 

Helmsdeep is what Minas (same author) will never be: an almost finished map of epic proportion in Middle Earth context (in its beta version obviously).

 

 

 

I am also a huge promoter of this recent map (2022).

Frankfurt is a classic "tank pushing 2 barriers + obj snatching + truck escape 2 barriers" map (i.e. Goldrush type), with great balance on a sweet Southern Germany architecture.

It also contains special features like ambiance music and exclusive announcement sounds (like in Transmitter)

One of the few maps that's actually well balanced for high number of players?

Not really, Allies often struggle to take control of the map. Especially if Axis gets dug in, protecting the three bottlenecks that Allies have to go through, similar to Oasis now. People have just gotten both of those maps figured out. Granted, Allies do win the map often enough to keep it fair, but I don't dislike the map, it's just been on there f o r e v e r.....

 

Kyrkyra on the other hand is, is simply dreadful, especially for Axis

Not as dreadful as flameguards 😄

Also very important: Baserace is a fun ctf map that could be seen as an intermission of some sorts, and i think we should definitively keep it.

Yet we could switch to one of the other versions, Desert baserace being the most popular variation of the original.

I only like the second part of Flameguards, but it's too complicated to get there, hahaha.

That's why I think they need to give other maps a chance to become recurring, for example, MLB Daybreak (the last stage is simply the most fun I've played since Marrakech Streets 2).

 

And finally, I would really love for ET Beach to become more recurring; at least twice a day would be great.

Would love to see MLB Daybreak more often. As you said the last stage is so fun to play. One of my favorite maps.

It gets played only early EU or late NA when theres less players
