Do we need some new Dm and TDM maps? if so let us know!



---Admin for: UT2004, UT99, FragOps---Email:SweetTooth---
The only map I saw in the suggestion thread for TDM was this one:

DM - Seraphim2004LE
Don't really NEED them, but new maps are always a good thing.

doink.. if i would have looked up and saw this stick i would have put this here.

Seraphim is a great UT99 map... its also a great remake in 2k4.. two thumbs up to DM-Seraphim2004LE
DM-Goose2k4 for sure...
DM-Waisten seems to be picking up interest in TDF
DM-SeraphimLE <-- haven't played it yet, but some of the other leagues are using it.
DM-CPB2-Achilles
DM-Mindgames2

I think theres a revised version of Grendel that I love a lot better. The amp and 100 armor have been switched as well as a few other weapon re-locations. Grendelkeep-TE
A much nicer replacement for the origional grendel

It doesn't flow quite as well as UT99 seraphim to me, but is a good map to be included.

I think the maps right now are ok, if there are too many maps in the ladder, it is really hard to practice them all and become really adept in them.

For this season I think the maps are fine.

Mindgames sucks. The FPS on it is horrible. I wouldn't consider it a ladder map at all.
Do you smell what my Napalm is cooking?
DM-Altena_LE101 for 1v1?

yes i did the LE... but i wouldnt have bothered unless i thought it was good =P

It's a good map, but most teams consider Grendel too small for a 4vs4 map.
Really? We've played a bunch of matches on it from 2k3 on up to 2k4. Compressed, yes people bitched about the size but I never heard complaints on Grendy.
Waisten
Akbal2k4
SeraphimLE

More maps = hopefully less repetition.

EDIT: I'm talking TDM here.

Im a bit shocked to hear that the size of the map is the reason for it not being one of the choices. Rankin and campgrounds are on there. Dont see why grendlekeep cannot.

I figure the fact that grendlekeep can be a pretty easy map to control would have been the reason. Although, I have been in scrims/matches in which is was a very tight struggle so i feel grendlekeep should be fine to add on the list.

I like those choices. Waisten & Akbal rock. Seraphim is a good ol good one.
Personally, I'd vote no on Grendel, but that's just because I'm tired of everyone playing it so much.
What about switching Campgrounds2004-G1E to TheCampgrounds-105?

I know I might be alone & flame me if you want, but I'd also like to see low-gravity maps thrown in the mix... mostly DM-Morpheus3 and DM-TokaraForest.

Viridian is good for 1 vs. TIght map that will prevent cowardly type play.

MalevXL is good for TDM. The other Malevs are okay for 1vses but XL (aka Rankevolence coz of the brick textures) is more spaced out and better for 4v4 and 2v2.

Grendy is a perfectly fine 4v4 map. I dunno whoever has complained that it's too small. Since it's been around since 2k3 and very popular, you'd think you'd see a pretty public outcry against it's size. The only complaint ever was weapon layout and a GE edition was made (but never fully embraced).
Waisten is tons of fun, I'll toss my vote in for that map.

Akbal is also a favorite of mine, but PLEASE not the 2k4 version. The original 2k3 version is much better! Actually I played Akbal2k4-PRO, which featured the original 2k3 layout with a few tweaks, mainly lighting issues.

Waxed is right on with his comments on Akbal... hate the 2k4 layout... old one is MUCH better suited for TDM. 2k4 more so for 1v1 IMO. Seraphim gets my vote too for TDM.

{S!N}Stik (author of the LE port of Seraphim) is working on an updated version of Tempest that has a few changes more geared towards flow and TDM - getting the last of the bugs out. might be another map to consider.
