just stick under in once to please the under apologists

1 under is fine, two unders is too much imo, when the map lasts for ages which most of them do, but the time the next under comes around everyone just wants to skip more than other maps.

2 Unders in the rotation.... PLEASE GOD NO LOL

Hourglass and Under once in the rotation is bad enough.

 

There's something else some may not be considering that we ran into on Friday.  Since Rencorner uses Ren-X style rules (booo) that allow for you to purchase vehicles even after a WF is dead... a game of Under could go on forever. We killed their WF, and 4 hours later they were still loaded with med tanks and everyone had 5000 credits to continue buying them forever.  So killing the WF had 0 effect.

 

Again, might as well have the Obelisk still shoot when the power is dead :)

 

A possible solution we thought of (besides turning it off), is have vehicles purchasable for only a certain amount of time after the destruction of the wf/strip.

 

Edit:  Forgot to mention, AOW got turned on for a few maps, and it was f'n awesome :)

Or if we're going to keep 2 unders in the rotation, then 1 under must be AOW mode.

 

 

edit: I personally think 1 under is enough as well. But I gotta make shai happy.

For the double maps one could be set to always be AOW.

That would be awesome.

Oh god not timed unders. Reminds me of the old days of clanwars where we ended up winning or losing unders just because of time and points. Hate that feeling of a map ending without any building on any side being destroyed. It's just like unfinished business.

I like the new changes maps end fast

Is it possible it's more than 20 % AoW atm?

Posted

pretty sure its 20% chance, not every 5th map

 

so sometimes it'd feel more and sometimes less.

I see. It must have been me then, because I had 3 time limited maps in a row last night.

I would like to recommend changing the AOW injection so all maps in the rotation will be played at least once in AOW mode. Currently it is set to 20%, my suggestion: change it to every 4th map rather than the current settings. This way every map will be played in AOW mode over the course of 4 rotations.

It was decided to be every 5th map AOW, but that's being coded now. In the meanwhile the existing system only permitted a %.

Posted

even if it had a random start location upon server boot, every 5th map would result in AOW being played on the same maps every rotation or until the server restarts :( unless maps were added/removed then this would change the pattern.

 

personally I would have set all "Nod maps" (Islands, city, etc) to AOW in an effort to balance GDI's chances of winning and keeping the server populated. 50% of the time if I spawn gdi on Islands & city I will leave, most people do.

If we do what goztow said (idr how it's being changed), I'm sure that WD would avoid this occurrence. Also remember that maps like sand will always be timed.

If it's every 5th map, and the rotation does not have a multiple of 5 as number of maps, then each rotation the maps that are AOW will change.

I dont get it, im pretty sure we said we want to add BunkersTS to the Rotation, what happened to this? The only times bunkers comes up is when a Mod sets it as next Map. This Map is a good 1, add it finally to the rotation plx.
