Thoughts? Eight maps or ten maps? et_ufo_final or erdenberg_t1?

EDIT:

How about this?

2on2 OC:
  • adlernest
  • braundorf_b4
  • erdenberg_t1
  • et_ice
  • frostbite
  • sp_delivery_te
  • supply
  • sw_goldrush_te
3on3 OC:
  • adlernest
  • braundorf_b4
  • erdenberg_t1
  • et_ice
  • frostbite
  • sp_delivery_te
  • supply
  • sw_goldrush_te
6on6 OC:
  • adlernest
  • bremen_b3
  • frostbite
  • karsiah_te2
  • missile_b3
  • radar
  • supply
  • sw_goldrush_te
EC:
  • adlernest
  • bremen_b3
  • frostbite
  • radar
  • supply
  • sw_goldrush_te

Or, what if we had an EC maplist which was the same as the current 6on6 SC maplist, but we only forced the 6 maps in the above EC maplist in the Groupstage? I'd really like to have the same maplists for both 6on6 OC and EC, but I also want to have 8 maps in the 6on6 OC maplist.

I can't handle the amount of changes and fresh ideas ET is going to face soon
3 without et ufo :<
i also would like to have SOS in the ec mappool
You need an even amount of maps, so if they would add SOS, they would also need to add another map.
Parent
or just -frostbite and +SOS => great mappool
Parent
6on6: SC maplist is fine to be used

3on3: #2
2 for sure!
why is every possibility full of shit maps
Which maps would you prefer?
Parent
i prefer normal maps, not 10 maps where half are unplayable
Parent
Um, so which maps do you like? I can't read your mind. Which ones are "unplayable" to you?
Parent
unplayable are those maps what have been played before and removed for good reasons yet here you are trying to get them back in which is absolutely ridiculous
Parent
A large portion of the active community disagrees with you. And you still haven't told me the names of maps you prefer...

Nothing is definite yet. That's the point of this journal - to discuss the maps, not immediately dismiss every idea I offer.
Parent
supply/grush duh... i mean cmon xd
Parent
See what Oxy said. Every season some admin brings those maps back but noone seriously wants to play them, and their only played when forced. Sure there is couple new comers that play them but the reason is pretty simple, they try to gain edge by playing those versus better opponents, even though it has never really worked.
Parent
Stop being a butthurt faggot and reply to his question already.
Parent
Be more specific and give him the name of the damn maps you want and don't want or just shut your cake hole.
Parent
I thought it was rather obvious enough, from his response, he wants supply, gr, radar, bremen, possibly frost and adler. Everything else just keeps getting added and removed from a cup to cup basis as there's no real demand for any of those maps, no one particularly likes them or.. even bothers to play them unless they're forced.
Parent
Well ohurcool took some time to reply to him personnaly and nicely, several times, which is not very likely to happen with other persons so the less thing walle could do was answering him clearly. That was the least he could do instead of being smartass...
Parent
missing sp_delivery_gg in EC maplist

sd grush radar adler/bremen for ec. no one plays the other maps anyway
6 maps for EC, radar supply swgr bremen adlernest missile/karsiah/frostbite
You don't think it's boring to have only 4 maps to choose from when eliminating for a decider?
Parent
does it get boring in cs? quake
Parent
No, because most of the maps are decent then.
Parent
Fair enough. So which of missile, karsiah, and frostbite do you like the most?
Parent
frost, don't bother with missile. Karsiah could become an option if there's demand for it, but unlikely.
Parent
I would rather have more than 6 maps in the maplist though... :(
Parent
it's really not the quantity but much rather the quality, I'm sure a lot of people would appreciate more maps, the problem is however, there just aren't any maps worth playing.
Parent
What's wrong with missile ? :S

We, at gMen, actually find fun in playing this map!
Parent
What if we had all 8 maps in the maplist but only forced the 6 "decent" ones in the Groupstage? How would you feel about that?
Parent
indifferent, I can guarantee you no team will ever pick any of those maps, all they do is add extra nuisance to eliminations.
Parent
Hmm, okay. :P

You call it extra nuisance; I call it more excitement for the viewers!
Parent
Missile or frostbite. Missile could be in the mappool this season.
Parent
Okay!

What if we had all 8 maps in the maplist but only forced the 6 "decent" ones in the Groupstage? How would you feel about that?
Parent
Too many "random/lotto" maps for elimination if decider is needed. Worse team might try to gain little advantage by aiming for those maps and another team cant do much to it.
Parent
When are the signups open?
If I may advise something - whatever maps you choose, make EC and OC with the same mappool (and even the same maps in matchweeks) - teams will have more options for their praccs and EC's won't be bothered to play maps which ain't @ their mappool :)
EC's arent bothered to play anything except Supply/grush and radar anyway, so lets just keep these 3 maps and add adler for a xmas present.
Parent
I originally intended to do that, but it seems that most EC players don't want more than 6 maps in the maplist...
Parent
with tzac or without ?
without. there is no use for tzac..
Parent
there is.. wouldnt u have a big orgasm if u can brows thro any tzac/et player /home directory
Parent
indeed, seeing how tzac is cracked
Parent
supply
gold
radar
adler
frost
bremen_b3

all you need!
best mappool of all time
Parent
force maps and win ... ur the boss.... if the rest of teams want to play some competition they have to play it..


sd + sos , grush+frost , radar+missle ( adler + karsiah ) , (NEW + standard) mode. would enjoy it to see SOS or crevasse again ..
Might see something like that at least for OC.
Parent

6v6

yesyes
EC: radar, gr, supply, bremen, adler and missile
Pls, take away the MG and you wouldn't ever want missile either. :(
Parent
true, but since mg is there..

nah seriously I think that it is the worst out of those 6, but still better than all the other options for 6th map (frostbite, karsiah etc.)
Parent
I don't know, I've always really enjoyed frostbite, sure, it's a lot harder to attack on in certain situations, but missile is... very dull, way to many stages and... way too much running, it's almost as if you were playing ice or village with 5 different docruns in a single map.
Parent
So how about this?

2on2 OC:
  • adlernest
  • braundorf_b4
  • erdenberg_t1
  • et_ice
  • frostbite
  • sp_delivery_te
  • supply
  • sw_goldrush_te
3on3 OC:
  • adlernest
  • braundorf_b4
  • erdenberg_t1
  • et_ice
  • frostbite
  • sp_delivery_te
  • supply
  • sw_goldrush_te
6on6 OC:
  • adlernest
  • bremen_b3
  • frostbite
  • karsiah_te2
  • missile_b3
  • radar
  • supply
  • sw_goldrush_te
EC:
  • adlernest
  • bremen_b3
  • frostbite
  • radar
  • supply
  • sw_goldrush_te
NEEDS UFO! 3on3+6on6 :X
Parent
You would rather play ufo than erden? :P
Parent
Most definatly! But even more I'd love to see frost_comp_b4 back... But since the majority of the ET community goes mentally challenged when they play anything other than supply/grush/delivery that will most likely never happen again :(

(Inb4 ranting about people whining about wanting other maps but start crying when you vote anything other than the endless supply/grush/deliv/adler :xxx)
Parent
Well, I'd like to try erden out for this season. Which map do you think we should replace with ufo, other than erden?
Parent
frost or b4 I guess, I want to say delivery but that would make a lot of people mad :X
Parent
We shall see!
Parent
Frostbite is great for 3v3 and braundorf is fine. If something was replaced, it should be delivery or ice.
Parent
missile instead of frostbite in EC
Parent
Okay!

What if we had all 8 maps in the maplist but only forced the 6 "decent" ones in the Groupstage? How would you feel about that?
Parent
Teams would still end up playing those 6 maps with few exceptions. On the other hand 2 extra maps would increase the chance of winning for the underdogs incase of a decider -> more interesting cup.

That would be good.
Parent
That is exactly how I see it. :P
Parent
why not ice for the 6on6? and take karshia out?
Parent
It's time to stop posting.
Parent
It's time for you to shut up boy.
Parent
Or more like, u should learn a thing or two about 6on6 format before posting such ridiculous comments.
Parent
ice isnt played on 6on6? lmfao since when.... you fucking PT fck.
Parent
Yet again u show ur stupidity, just stop before it's too late, a bit of education wouldn't harm as well.
Parent
lmfao, because i call you a pt fuck?
lmfao, wow eh!
Parent
I could probably go with a list of stuffs for it, but it would be clearly a waste of time.
Parent
Quotelist of stuffs

LMFAO

Quotestuffs
Parent
wow u can actually read, damn, im amazed.
Parent
Teams don't really play et_ice in 6on6 (any more?), just like braundorf_b4, sp_delivery_te, etc.
Parent
sure they do :D
Why not make a poll on the site, and have like.. idk, 8 or 9 options. and ask what maps should be taken out of the list.

just an idea. but ice should deffs be given a chance, no?
Parent
Polls here on CF don't really work so well for this sort of thing, since we can't tell who voted for which option (among other reasons).

I don't think enough interest has been shown for et_ice as a 6on6 map to make it worthwhile to add it to the 6on6 maplists.
Parent
then why not on cb site, at least?
Parent
There would be nowhere near as many votes in a poll on CB as there would be in a poll on CF. We also still wouldn't be able to tell who voted for which option.
Parent
why would you need to see "who" voted for wat option?
a poll is to find out what map to eliminate from a set.

i don't get it.
Parent
Polls are rather useless when you can't tell who voted. If we made a poll about the maplist for the upcoming EC, I can pretty much guarantee you that at least 50% (and probably much more) of the votes would be from players who don't even intend to compete in the EC.

Example: http://www.crossfire.nu/polls/593/are-you-interested-in-a-2on2-oc-this-fall

There is no way of confirming that everyone who voted in that poll is even actively playing ET, so the poll's actual results are kinda irrelevant.
Parent
ahh gotchya.
Parent
cool EC maplist at least
Parent
Make EC & OC with the same mappool..
Parent
I originally intended to do that, but it seems that most EC players don't want more than 6 maps in the maplist..
Parent
It's not that they won't participate if the mappool is larger than 6 maps. 8 for example. They will participate anyway..
Parent
I'd prefer missile over frostbite in EC, otherwise looks great
Parent
Okay!

What if we had all 8 maps in the maplist but only forced the 6 "decent" ones in the Groupstage? How would you feel about that?
Parent
Im fine with every map except karsiah.

I mean who the fuck likes this? its way too small for 6v6. its just fucking horrible shit

if u want more maps then its missile in the pool
Parent
remove adler frost and add spicy maps for ec, it's getting too boring :(
Parent
What kind of "spicy" maps? :P
Parent
venice and marrakech streets :D
Parent
X------dD fanny guy!! :pD
Parent
1st u should finish sc then think about lower(ec) cup
There is no work to be done for SC atm, and we've always done things this way... preparing for the next season before the current one ends. It would be illogical to wait until Summer 2013 ended to begin getting ready for Fall 2013.
Parent
supply/deli NBS style
3 looks pretty solid
Just add them all, those forever supply won't agree in playing most of them anyway
Why dont you remove the missile already? Who likes that shit?
Quite a few teams and players like it. :)
