The community removal | #3 by Tazz October 31, 2015 at 11:10 PM UTC

Hello,
I am going to be taking over the community removals seeing as Robin who was doing these stepped down. 

In our recent Map development meeting have we been discussing a lot of things. And one the things we'd like to introduce is something we call "The community removal". We're doing this to get the community's feedback on maps, if they would like to keep the maps or not.
This thread will be rebooted every week with 4 new maps!

--------

Last week's results are following:
Dust Devils: Relocate the monument locations
Honeybomb: Remove
Halcyon: Add some more iron
Teres: Remove

--------

So, how does this little thing work?

Every week on this thread you will see 4 maps. These maps are being discussed if we should keep or not. Under me you will right now see four different maps. We, Map Developers would like you to share your thought of this map. Do you want this map to stay, or get removed? When you give your opinion on the map, please do motivate why you think like you do. Maybe we wont have to remove the map and instead make a certain change to it instead! And remember to always put the tag "keep, edit or remove", otherwise we Map developers may not understand your point and we get confused if you want to keep it or not.

The following 4 maps that will either be removed/stay:

Unix:


Rendezvous Redux:


Dragon Valley:


Infernus:

--------

This is when you can make a change, please motivate why you think like you do. Hopefully this will improve and create a better avicus experience.

Regards

Nice

Unix- Keep, good gameplay but maybe move the monuments back a little.

rendezvous redux- Keep, a good map like the original with nice aesthetics.

Dragon Valley- Remove, can be too confusing and gameplay is bad.

Infernus- Keep, good gameplay and fun to play.

Youre welcome Tazz (:

I enjoy playing all of these maps :P

Glesmon October 31, 2015 at 11:10 PM UTC

These are all fun

I'm not a fan of unix I don't like Unix mainly because of the space issue.

Keep all but Infernus

Unix: [KEEP] Make changes to the monument placements, too far away IMO. Also make the enchantment table more visible? (Hiding them underground is pointless) possibly move them near the front if spawn?

Rendezvous Redux: [KEEP] The gameplay is decent on this map I would recommend lowering the diamond supply and adding more iron.

Dragon Valley- [REMOVE] The map has so many problems and is very confusing.

Infernus- [KEEP] I'm not a huge fan of the map but its plays pretty well. No complaints.

Unix keep

rendezvous redux remove, It basically the same as regular rendezvous so I don't see the point of it

dragon valley edit, spin spawn around to face mid and maybe get rid of some stuff in mid as it seems crowded

infernus make the 2 islands wider and add a premade bridge from spawn instead of that rickety bridge

Unix - Keep due to its nice shape of the map but the only problem I have is the cobwebs surrounding the monument

Rendezvous Redux - Keep, great CTW map, one of the best

Dragon Valley - Doesn't really get played as much in CTW but I find it confusing especially when you spawn so remove :)

Infernus - Keep

TurkishDelite November 1, 2015 at 3:11 AM UTC

Unix - Keep, but maybe edit it because its not very fps friendly

Rendezvous Redux - Keep, great awesome ctw map

Dragon Valley - Remove, not really great gameplay and really confusing when you spawn and you have to go backwards

Infernus - Keep, simply a great map

Rendezvous Redux isn't a CTW map, it's DTM.



@OP I say keep all of them, they all play nice. Rendezvous Redux gets ruined by the 1.8 servers. For Dragon Valley, I was so confused when I first played it. Maybe you should fix the spawn facing direction.
And is the Map Developer rank real now?

Remove Dragon Valley, rest keep.

Unix: Not a bad map, actually one of my favourites. Can't really say anything negative about it. Keep

Rendezvous Redux: I actually think this is better than the original ones, keep.

Dragon valley: Only played once on it so i'm not going to comment

Infernus: Good pvp space but a little hard to get monuments. Keep

UNIX: I absolutely love this map. But I would get rid of the punch 2 bow and that's it. Great map!

RENDEZVOUOS REDUX: This map is getting a little bit old, although it is good I think it needs a revamp to get that new feeling.

DRAGON VALLEY: I don't really play on this map but I don't really like it. Too confusing

INFERNUS: Is a good map although most of the time the game is really long, quick or the whole team just kill farms one team.

Coco_stag November 1, 2015 at 9:11 AM UTC

Unix:
The bedrock under the whole map and monuments a bit closer and I will like it. KEEP


Rendezvous Redux:

Very fun map! Keep


Dragon Valley: Don't really like this map in general. REMOVE


Infernus: Eh, Its a decent map
