I suggest we remove donner from the map rotation at tv1. it lags real bad for me and its just too big and confusing. if you remember a while back in the tf days we removed rock2 from the rotations, i suggest we do the same for donner. i dont like it.
donner, just say no. _________________

If this is the case then you might as well remove Forest from the rotation if lags an issue. _________________ http://www.nosmacktards.com |

Donner is the one I have most of my lag issues with also. I usually leave when it comes on. Forest is on TV4 not TV1 and I do go there on occasion just because I love Forest. It is a really laggy map but I really like it. Maybe if Donner is put on TV4 instead then those that want to play it still can. Just a thought. _________________

I used to have lag problems on Donner, until I got some help and got the particle effects turned off (the rain was killing me). Donner is really an interesting map because it has lots of paths and places to be sneaky.
I still have occational lag problems with Donner, but it is still playable. _________________

Donner is the foulest of all evil spawn. The map lags like crazy and is about as much fun as having ravenous miniture Krispy Kreme donuts eat you alive.

Forest will be much better on tv4 very soon. _________________

I voted to remove it.
A: I die alot on that map for some reason
B: It lags me down
C: I think the name Donner is dumb, it makes me think of reindeer which
are also dumb.
Could we maybe replace it with Jagd? another dumb name but a way cooler map!! |

Donner = the r0x0r
I love donner! All those tunnels and shortcuts and hiding places make it a great map to play. As far as lag, I have never had any. But with any Large Map you will see a bit more lag.
If you just plain dont like it, well I think if you played it a bit more youd really like it. Get used to it and you would die a bit less..
If you have lag issues with this map, turning off particle fx does help alot.
Check this page out, try the "Whiskas Script Pack" it replaces the standard command menu and gives you a few more options, and will help you get more fps. BUT BACKUP YOUR OLD COMMAND MENU FIRST!

Its kind of hard to take one map off a rotation because a few people have issues with it, because there are plenty more that do love that map, and they will make there voice heard right after this post that there favorite map was taken off.
In time it will wear out its welcome..... The map rotate will change as time goes on. Dont worry, Silver Merf and Myself will look at what maps are popular and what maps you all like and what new ones there are and we will get them it the roatation. I actually think tv1's is getting kind of old now.. |

I say keep it tho. If it lags too much those special scripts sounds like a good way to go. _________________ Under construction!!! |

I really like Donner. I think if more people took the side routes and worked together it would be a lot more fun. God knows, Donner is more fun than Forest. I don't think the woods makes for a good DOD setting, gameplay-wise.
While we're talking about maps, I'd like to see some of the para maps make a return (I understand they don't use the round style anymore). And if there is a good Normandy map, that would also make a good addition. Hell, just change things up every now and then - keep us on our toes. _________________ ctnstone.com |
