Thanks for the reply. Will see if we can mix up the rotation this weekend. 

Please add MLB_Egypt ! Vesuvius also, I think it can work well on Jay 1.

MLB_Egypt

Is one of another server destroyer map. I love it a lot but people just hate it , I think because it’s too big probably that’s why . 
 

or we can replace with flame guards or daybreak ( I love this map a lot  )

We can replace MLB_Carnage or Flameguards with Egypt for example. I'd like to see how it plays out on a big server. 

 

But I think, and in my opinion, bigger maps should be played during peak activity hours. Smaller ones for low activity hours instead.

[...] These map I call as server destroyers as they make server almost empty.

 

mlb_carnage 

flame guards 

Base race 

2 tanks 

 

I cannot disagree more.

 

Carnage : not a bad map but spawn order gets easily messed up. Also, i can see why some people dont like it, as they can easily get frustrated in a number of ways => why not

 

Flame Guards : a very good map, classic MLB epic (temple, egypt, daybreak, carnage). Plus the layout, obj succession, team balance.... everything is absolutely same as in daybreak : we cannot remove FlameGuard without removing Daybreak.

 

Baserace : loved by a lot of people, and as a CTF map it's way more interesting than BBA, i.e. BBA should normally be removed before we ever do. Last time i played it on Jay1, and the server went from 4v4 to almost no bot.

Baserace has so many versions (desert, xmas, winter, etc.), i take it as a proof it is popular.

I would possibly change it to desert Baserace though, as suggested in a previous post.

 

2tanks : nice but often one team having a very good knowledge of the map fights a team of 2tanks-virgin.... On Monday, axis tank hardly moved while allies. it has the huge benefit of revamping objective traditional gamestyle, and thats previous. I would keep with an on-and-off option, as all regulars will eventually catch on this original gamestyle and this map will get increasingly interesting.

 

 

 

I would remove Kerkyra though. Team difficulty not balanced, very hard for axis before 1st barrier, leading to whining about team balance and to complaining the admins (at least every other time we play the map).

Plus many players experienced FPS drops on Kerkyra, due to high level of grass and foliage details.

 

And Riverport has been long overplayed. It's a good map though.

 

Finally i think i hate Goldrush more than my own boss.

See I won’t disagree with points on the playability of these map on jay1 , but the other truth is also in the negative votes all these 4 maps get . I can understand 10,20 negative votes , it takes time to get used to them but many of these have over 100 negative votes . How much we try people won’t like it .

 

If you ask me base race can stay or be replaced with similar map (there used to be another similar map in jay1 before where teams had to go for gold , it was inside closed arena and had huge walls and two dedicated sections , forgot it’s name ) 

There are other maps also which should be removed but have positive votes including river port .

 

And goldrush should be replacesd by rail gun , goldrush has been for ages and should be replaced by another classic map .

Railgun was in the previous map rotation but only during calm hours. So something else like Radar would be nice.

What railgun was there ? Missed it I think . 
radar would also be nice .

 

Edit : just checked rail gun was there with 0,24 setting . I think in such case it would have barely come (mostly at morning European hours when 18-20 people are there ) . I think it could have easily handled 32-44 players (it’s bigger map than special and Braundrof)

OK nevermind 😃

Do we really have to play bba in every late rotation? Sick of it, doing everything but playing reasonably to make it same crap to others. Knife and mortar in strange places. 

Sorry for being mean but it is what it is. 

 

PS 

Bring back Minas.

Capuzzo, Etdo6 and 1, BBA Castle... there's a good chunk of maps I'd like seeing removed from this rotation. The thing is, we need more suggestions of map replacements. What would you like BBA being replaced with ?
