Phase 2 Map Contest Entries

[Yoshiro]

Most if not all the maps are listed somewhere in the beta/final release forums here. I had to dig in them to match map names to online handles

I agree... how are we, especially the Server Admins, supposed to get these maps "out there" if we have no source?

We're looking at ways of getting the maps out as a whole group. Stay tuned for more info on this.

Outstanding.... that sounds great.

[Heldentod]

getting the maps out as a whole group sounds nice

but some maps are so damn unrealistic and no attempt to be historic at all has been made(for example Novogradov Mountains, it´s just a tdm style map which takes away the name for a better map)

if TW wants to keep it´s "realistic" reputation i would suggest to take only the ones which have historic background and are well done

[Tomcat_ha]

As long as the maps have good gameplay i dont care how realistic they are.

I agree..... this "history lesson mania" is getting old REAL FAST. This is a game and there has to be concessions made for that fact. I want to play a game.... not study history.


Please, read THIS

Smolensk Stalemate is a top map.

[bystander]

Congratulations to all the mappers and their minions, errrr, helpers. 21 custom maps is a hell of a showing. I haven't played all of them but have played some, and the quality I've seen is really amazing. You should all be proud. Thanks TW for sponsoring the contest and doing it the right way.

Good luck to all.

Especially to my home team

You have no idea how good that feels. As the maker of one of the more "unrealistic" maps its good to know other things than realism takes priority

[Slyk]

Personally I am working on a mod that if you play Russian, you get only five bullets to every other man and we disable your 'S' key so that there is no going backwards and the objectives are piles of Vodka bottles.

[PUTZ]

Fine disable the S key, but my down-arrow will still work. :P

[Slyk]

Your down arrow will be programmed to make you pee your pants. Nothing more. See, we've covered all the potential 'free-thought/remappings'. There will be none. It will be our way or no way. Got it?

and i play the game for the historic aspect and not the average FPS BS you seem to like

[SchutzeSepp]

i assume that if the winning map get released with RO in the future, that it needs some historical background not? like all the stock maps.

You play the game for what you seek and I play the game for what I seek. If we find a happy medium that's fine. If not, then there will be maps that will not see the light of day for me and the same will go for you. If I want hard core history lessons, I'll go back to college and enroll in a class.

I play the game to enjoy it for what it is..... A GAME.

So is BF1942, did you liked that one (Stg 44/Panzeschreck in Africa, Japanese with German weapons etc)?

[Drecks]

I had my share of historical accuracy blasphemy overhere and after i read some of these post i came to a conclusion.

Isn't it time we stop this discussion.

Lets face it Some people like this game no matter what game or map they like it. Some people
like this game with original content and want to make it some sort of historical correct as possible
but keep in mind the fact it's a game and there are certain borders or limitations.
Some people just want it HISTORICAL CORRECT

Stop argueing it won't solve anything Iff one don't want to play a certain map
cause of it's non historical setting load up the map of your flavour and play that map.
Don't harras a mapper to use stuff suitable for that era.

Off course this is allowed when the mapper post that he likes to make it as HISTORICAL CORRECT as possible
and need help. Iff not let him make the map he wants.

Iff i want to make an HISTORICAL CORRECT map i would introduce the smell of
fecies and piss cause i'm convinced that's what most soldiers smelled dugged in
their manholes awaiting the enemy.....
