Well now that DoD has more good maps this could be a good thing, but I like the idea of a good consistent rotation too... love to hop on the server for anzio followed by donner, if you had avalanche right behind it instead of flash it would be perfect. maybe to keep tv1 different from tv2 you should exclude certain "undesirable" maps from the vote that tend to drive a lot of good players off the sever, such as switch, forest, vicenza caen etc.

I agree with this. You don't want NS maps to load up when you're playing DoD.

Keep tv1 different from tv4. I like having a set rotation, which means that I can escape tv4 when people decide that they want to play avalanche 5 times in a row, or forest, at all. Also, it seems that the mapvote system does not always work, as I often do not get a chance to vote on either tv4 or tv5.

As much as I hate to say it I think the mapvote works better when you have class limits. Having maps that are breed snipers or mg's voted on would cause a lot of people to leave, unless they are the snipers.

Instead of a map vote, maybe take out flash and put one of the new maps, like saints or another new one in its place.

Hmm. To be honest, I dunno. I think that since there's more great maps out now... maybe include the ones you already have plus four or five more popular ones and make it a mapvote.

You could play with the idea of using nominations too. This way if you have a bunch of people in the server who like a certain type of map they don't get stuck having to choose between a few maps that they don't like. I know it sucks when we are on TV4 and we get caen, forest, and jagd or even switch as choices

I wish that TV I had the map vote feature at the end like TV IV.

Other then that, I play in TV I most often because TV IV seems to be having lag issues as of late.

I hope it gets the vote system! *EDIT* I just thought of something, maybe you could lower the amount of votes needed, and add more selection, I hate when you get to vote on 3 maps and all are poor. IE Forest, Avalanche, and um, what was that other one... I can't remember, but it's bad, so bad, that I've spent money to get it out of my thoughts... hey it actually worked.

I'm amazed too see how much people doesn't like Forest. I can't understand why, this map is the kingdom of the sneaky bastids, and no sniper's map at all.

TV4 used to have a selection of 5 maps to choose from when the voting started. It picks 5 random maps from the server. I changed it to 3 because people were saying the votes were stretching out too thin.

I can easily change back to the default 5 maps. See how it works.
