Hi,
I received a PM today asking for some new maps to be added to the CyberGamer EU ET ladder maplists. It doesn't really matter to me, but I don't want to make any major changes if only a few teams/players will be fine with them and the rest are going to complain.
So, for those of you who are active: how do you feel about the current ladder maplists? Would you like to see some new maps added? If so, which ones? Here is what the maplists look like at the moment:
What do you guys think? Again, I'm only asking those who are actively playing on the 2on2/3on3/6on6 ladders as they are the ones who will be affected if any changes are made.
Thanks!

Tho ufo aint much better for 2on2 but at least it would have more tactical options 8)
e.g. supply, radar, goldrush must be offered (or core maps) and 2 or so other maps can be offered but not forced (basically the other team can decide not to play random maps if they don't want to).
Pretty sure at one point on au.cg I had something like that setup so the more social teams could select random maps to play each other on but the "LOLOLOLOL PRO MAENS BUTSECKZ IRL TBH HOMOS AFAIK IIRC IMO LOLOLOLOLOLLLLLOL LETS PLAY SUPPLY-ALITY"* teams could still play g-rush/supply/radar only.
* quoted from blakjack (GameArena admin), 2007.
maybe some teams gona play it more to prac it u never know
Maybe have 2 core maps in the mappool, but change the other 3 maps every other week orso.
That map as much as it can be lotto and about one good nade/spawnkill, it offers so many tactical set ups....
Of course many will say now: "Beach is great!" => that's why everyone tries to skip that map -_-
Of course it feels quite different to play from any other map but has great distances from spawn to the objective compared to other teams spawnpoints. Quite many different spawnpoints to tactically fiddle with, possible to play effectively as a team for both allies and axis. Pushing/falling back/time playing options. 8)
too hard for most
Educated them into good maps. And btw I am also 2 years inactive now :D only playing on doublejump nq servers from time to time xD
adlernest
braundorf_b4
erdenberg_t1
et_beach
et_ice
frostbite
sp_delivery_te
supply
sw_goldrush_te
tc_base
R U KIDDING ME?
Maybe in 2on2:
remove erdenberg from 2on2 list , the rest seems fine for that ladder
3on3:
tc_base ( i think its a better map for 6on6/3on3 than 2on2 )
6on6:
Let's start with playing reactor/sos_secret_weapon and missile more :)
(maybe + et_beach since its a big map and it is in the 3on3 maplist but not in the 6on6?)
I know you can add dubrovnik and oldschool maps, but i don't think people will play that much. Just like timbolina did, a ODC with oldschool maps is fun, he should do it more ^^
get karsiah into the 3on3 map pool and remove it from the 6on6 one imo
also I agree with what infa said, have some core maps and change the mappool every 3weeks or something.
It's barely anything else than supply/gayrush and sometimes karsiah if malibu plays....
NEEDS MORE OF BREMEN
So my ideas(at least what should be tried out) are
for 3on3: wolken1_final, base/maybe sos_secretweapon/dubrovnik/et_sub/caen instead of base? :>
would be great to get to test more of these in actual matches. Someone make a cup or something with only one of the new maps!
for 2on2: I'd kinda like new maps, but would like to get to play those I mentioned for 3on3 to figure if they'd have any hope as 2on2maps..
I would like to avoid removing any maps, especially not deliv (it's popular, like it or not), unless there's a good reason for doing so. That being said, I'm not opposed to replacing erden with ufo in the 2on2 maplist if the majority agrees.
3on3: Nothing wrong with the current maplist in my opinion. We could add base and perhaps one more map along with it if you guys want.
6on6: Again, nothing really wrong with the current maplist. Pretty much the only maps played are bremen, radar, supply, and grush anyway with the occasional missile, frost, or adler. Battery and/or oasis could be added, but I'm not a huge fan of them myself and don't think they work very well (and probably wouldn't be played much anyway).
Any other "new" maps you'd like to see?
I will look into the various ladder map settings referenced above by biggz, although I'm not sure whether or not they currently function with CG v5.
Another possibility is following the example of the old CB CoD2 crew by starting a "custom maps" ladder. It would feature a larger-than-usual maplist with plenty of unconventional and underplayed maps. Any format could be played, and rules wouldn't be as strictly enforced as on the other ladders. However, you'd be required to create new teams, re-invite all your players, etc...
Sub might also be cool as webe mentioned, but I doubt it would work just as good as wolken1.
I'd also like to vote for a little bit bigger pools as fanta mentioned. For the sake of keeping ET more fresh!
