Hey guys,
I know I have been around for less then a week but are there going ot be new maps added to the rotation? I enjoy avalanche, anzio, donner, flash, and kalt alot but there are still some great DoD maps that are not being played i.e.

Merderat(saving private ryan map)
Escape(old bridge from 1.3b)
Charlie(beach map)
caen(old1.3b map)
Forest
GLider
Kraftstoff
Northbound
Switch
Vicenza
Jagd
Chemile

Point being thier great maps, and maybe ease into them 1 or 2 at a time. Thoughts please.

we have merderat on one server i think. charlie and caen and forest all were on rotation, but got removed mainly because people got sick of them, afaik. id like to see some other maps too.

also we need to get some people on the custom maps server (tv7). people say they like it, but we still cant get any traffic!!

i personally wish the stalemate maps like kalt and flash and switch were taken out of the rotation, along with the maps that are just plain bad like forest and charlie. i know lots of ppl like these though so i never really voiced this opinion

my ideal rotation:

anzio
avalanche
kraftstoff
glider
chemille
railroad
railroad2

caen is ok... sometimes its good and sometimes its sniper war.

i just like these maps because you have CHOICES and if someone is camping you have OTHER ROUTES to flank them and other ways to go.

jfet: maybe if you slowly introduced some custom maps into the TVI and IV (with a period of warning) i bet people would still play there.

You can go to TV4 and vote for the maps you want.

TV1 has a prett good rotation. Kalt sucks balls but that's one bad map to most of the good ones. The new maps should be really popular since they are balanced flag maps in the style of donner, maybe you could add them to TV1.

Any chance the DoD members of the ville will be allowed to vote for maps i the future? err what i mean is we take a vote of the good maps take the top 5 and that becomes the rotation(from the forums).

lol yeah. maps have a lot to do with personal preference. i just like dynamic routes compared to everyone spawning and running in the same direction in one big group only to get slaughtered cuz there's no other place to go than right into 2 waiting mgs and 2 snipers (ala flash)

like i said though, to each his own

I'd like to see Railroad and Harrington added to TV IV.

Other than that, TV IV is where it's at IMO.

i know some popular servers like the $T clan server used stock maps and when they had a large number of regular players, they slowly started adding some custom maps into the rotation as well.
