I have to strongly agree here. People just muck around on radars2. The old rotation was far more enjoyable, you could have the same rotation and add a few of the customs, I dont think there was any reason to pretty much change the rotation completely.
People might say that they were 'boring' but if they're simply BETTER maps and you get BETTER gameplay from them - I see no reason to replace them. Half the new maps get SPAMMED by next map votes by numerous players - this never happened in the old rotation well, the nextmap votes wouldn't of passed that's for sure - people enjoyed the previous rotations maps.
The new customs are awful especially when there's <15 players. Also as antag said you can run for like 2 minutes then get killed and have to start all over again, it sucks.
- Bring back the old rotation but add the port + HoG maps
- Remove all the new customs except for port + HoG - Up to the map rotation guys because I think people dislike these maps also and allies usually just get camped on port. IMO they're the best customs out of the new ones.
- Remove beach because it's terrible on OZ and allies rarely get through, don't get me wrong I think it's an awesome map but most players would rather just snipe and thus ruin the map.
- Add the original radar and chuck oasis back in (radar without grass+fog) both excellent maps (oasis somewhat boring)
- Add marakaech streets or whatever it's called - people liked that
- Don't add railgun, battery or fueldump because they're awful on pubs (Battery is good if allies can secure the fwd flag but that happens rarely).
- Baserace is pretty 50/50, some people love it some people hate it
