What maps don't you like?

[Lux]

Sort of a counter thread to Irish Rebel's (there I go again using peoples ideas :001_cool:).

 

I don't like several maps, or atleast the later versions.

 

Spacestationx because there is an escape right at the start with no defence, making it guaranteed that zombies will atleast get on this shuttle, and maybe on the other too. The older versions were better, where you could close the first doors trapping the zombies out and there was no secrets which stopped people actually trying to escape.

 

Rooftop2 because a handful of cts with any weapon could shoot the zombies right down to the floor, meaning they have to waste alot of time getting back up again, to be shot down. Also you are barely escaping, for most of the map you are camping, and I prefer a map with more balance between running and camping, its nice to have to fight off the zombies at the end, but if it happens to soon or too much you aren't playing an escape map anymore, because the point is to escape to this final frontier, and zombies could of got a load of people by now, making it quite a tense finish.

 

I just don't think this happens enough in newer maps, theres no balance and the updates which are meant to improve the map ruin it, Boatescape6, Spacestationx, Icecave.......

Generally obscure underplayed maps i.e. canal escape. I'm a big advocate of the server running the "Big 5" maps repeatedly , those 5 being Black Mesa , SST , JP , LW , and SSX. There are others I wouldn't mind playing such as icecave , sorrento , IamLegend , and so on. But my main issue is with underplayed maps. There's a reason they are hidden and rarely played. Most of the time these maps lower my fps. I remember one of them , it's like CP escape or something , I can't even move. I always get stuck in the water in the beginning while the rest of you somehow have managed to advance past me.

 

The worst by far is Mumbo Jumbo. Malvinas used to be on the list but I've found it rather entertaining to go hide in the apartment with everyone else , barricade the entrance near the ladder , and just sit in the window with everyone else camping. It's a nice relief from the tension and chase of regular escape maps :001_rolleyes:

Sorrento Escape and Malvinas Helicopter suck so baddly. Gives me headache lol.

[Psyche]

CP escape

 

Child Porn escape?

 

I forgot the whole name of it, siphon something, it's a deathrun map, and its god awful.

Any of the escape maps which you don't actually escape on, you just camp.

 

Atix Helicopter and sorrento probably the worst two.

Hell no Atix Helicopter is great I love that map.:thumbup1:

sorrento escape is also a good map just as rooftop2 is.

Only the updated maps that are there are not on the server running.

 

This could help balance the maps. the only maps i dislike are:

 

Trap_escape, Mumbo_jumbo, canal_escape and no offence but iamlegend too.

 

The first 2 are funny for 2 or 3 rounds then thats done. The other 2 you only run without any jumping traps or something. You just run to the savehouse hold zombies at the window then run downstairs and wait for the door too close.

 

there is no exitement in those maps.

Mumbo Jumbo, bridge (i think we have gotten rid of it), I am legend (just too dark for me, i could get nv but its the only map i'd use it on), trap, malvena. Just my opinion.

[Jewpiter]

Anything that isn't island or boat escape.

Right now I agree. No other maps are really balanced, possibly Lostworld but I don't particularly like the map.
