This map is the reason i quit ro1. Most servers were running this map 24/7 and it already happening in ro2 aswell. The map itself has to many choke points
of all the maps you could have redone. you took danzig .....

- Start date
I barely see any severs go on Apartments anymore. Besides, it's not even a remake, it is just a resemblance to the original.
Now Fallen Fighters, is a remade map.
I'm waiting for the SDK and first DLC to come out, that's when my money will be well spent.
It's not like that map is bad or anything.

Are people here just completely obsessed with pre-emptive doom and gloom? There is ONE 24/7 apartments server. (Maybe there is another somewhere but there is only one that I've actually seen with players on it) 95% of servers seem to be playing all the maps pretty much equally at this point. It just is a complete non-issue for now.
edit: Also, I would be pretty surprised if none of the new maps that eventually show up are not also at least loosely remakes.

are you crazy, this is a near 100 % copy.
its not just the 24/7 servers. Servers where map voting is on always get voted to appartments/danzig when the option is available.
I'm getting RTCW/beach flashbacks, and there not good ones.
now you mention it. i couldn't place it but fallen fighters does indeed resemble the reichstag map from RO1, K

the reason why apartments gets votes, is because it's at the top of the map list.

Honestly, I'm of the opinion that Apartments is much improved over Danzig. I'm assuming you're talking about things from the Soviet perspective given that you're discussing choke points. The ability to mantle through windows really eases up the chokes, the ruins in the Park make capturing it much easier than before, the Propaganda House is easier to defend after the Soviets capture it than before, the ability to cross the ravine reduces the effectiveness of bridge nade spam and makes taking the "bridgeheads" much easier... It's not my favorite map, certainly, but while Danzig really frustrated me, Apartments can actually be fun to play on.
The only thing left that would improve the map is a reduction in the number of Mkbs

.I have to agree, I'd prefer apartments to be a bit bigger, the old RO1 map felt a lot bigger than this and because rifles were not dead sharp accurate, a lot of the game was spent with the russians trying to get past the bridge because of an MG. Unless the russians were really good.
Apartments is really a different map than Danzig. There are more ways to get to the objs, and generally speaking I like it more. As goes for map voting, on the server I manage I disable it, reason is simple: people likes to play maps they know. Now, force them play maps they don't know for a while and guess what? They will like them too. Just set up a mapcycle that alternates between favourite maps and less favourite ones and your server will always be full. The only map I didn't put in the mapcycle is Gumrak, reason is simple: squad system needs a big tweak. My mapcycle is:
