2013-06-28 Mapcycle
With the arty back, I had to take out a few maps that have single-exit spawns, unpassable choke points, or tanks that are too easily paralyzed with arty from a distance.
If the tank is in a narrow corridor it is harder to arty spam than out in the open. Any map with a tank out in the open is too easy to paralyze with the arty.
Goldrush and Venice have tanks, but you cannot arty spam them from a distance, so they will not quite as easy to abuse as the tanks on castleattack or mlb_temple.
Removed Maps:
castleattack_b5 (tank and outer doorways get spammed)
et_mor2_night_final (allied spawn 2 gets camped bad)
mlb_temple (axis spawn 1 gets camped, tank gets camped)
mml_minastirith_fp3 (many arty choke points)
parisbastille_b3 (doorway gets camped)
I added baserace_desert and cortex_who (the map where you are in a giant house).
Here is the list:
baserace_desert
bremen_final
cortex_who
eagles_2ways_b3
et_beach
frostbite
goldrush-gals
haunted_mansion
mlb_carnage
mml_church_et_v1
pirates
snatch3
supplydepot2
venice
warbell

I love that sniper map that's in the huge kitchen. Can we add that one?

This cortex map is crashing both Beginner and Rampage. Beginner was full at the moment of crash :/
I'm taking it out of the cycle for now.

OK, Thanks!!!
This is a great example of why we don't add new maps all the time. Lots of maps out there look fun but have bugs. I should have spent more time researching this map.

Speaking of Cortex and Kitchen, does anyone remember kung_fu_grip?
That was a crazy one too.

Obi, this is a good selection - really appreciate your effort. Imho, Castle Attack, Temple, and Minas definitely add to FBY's appeal. I specifically remember being awed by the Temple and Minas landscapes. We both know that it's not possible to satisfy everyone, but this is just my two cents.

We've been running castleattack, mlb_temple, and minas non-stop on Beginner for about a year if not longer, so we can rotate them out for a change of scenery.Beastborg wrote:Obi, this is a good selection - really appreciate your effort.

We might put them on another less spammy server.

Sounds good. I will return to visiting other servers to look for spacious maps to replace those three, in due time. I'm going to focus on open, sniper-friendly maps if I can find them.
