    the custom map server finally gets some regular action and you want to tear it all down, what a kiljoy

    custom maps are hell of fun for a changeup once the valve maps get stale... and personally playing dustbowl for 3 hours every night just gets old after a while. i mean i love the valve maps but really, you gotta have some fresh stuff to keep things interesting sometimes.

    The hall ways are way to narrow I found. The designers need to look at the original tf2 maps, and notice that there is very few narrow tunnels / halls.

    no, they're terribly balanced and made poorly.

    just because they might look neat doesn't mean they play fluidly or well balanced.

    there's a reason why official maps take a long time to come out.

    Fuck that, custom maps are fun.

    A game on Hydro or 2Fort is an exercise in masochism, a game on jinxed or magnetic is fun.

    I've found Turbine to be a pretty fun substitute for 2fort, since the area is more open.

    Maybe not as well designed as 2fort, but I enjoy it a lot more.

    2fort and hydro are crap maps.

    dustbowl or well are superior in every way to custom maps.

    i think just removing 2fort and hydro will reinvigorate the regular servers. ive never played on them when 2fort comes up and everyone doesnt leave immediately.

    You shut your mouth, Hydro's great and Well is crap.

    Dustbowl is still the best map out there. But supposedly valve is coming up with a map pack update soon.

    I'd say the reason 2fort is so boring is because it's been around, in almost the exact same form, since the Quake 1 TF days. That's around 11 years of the same map being played in every iteration of TF just with updated textures and a different layout leading from the water into the bases.

    I've never played a multiplayer FPS before, I hate 2fort too.

    Also can we please, please, please stop rocking the vote to convoy. Every goddamn round people want to go to convoy. There's a map called studio that I've never played on since the HoNC never actually does its real map rotation.

    Studio probably would be great if a weird-ass bug didn't sometimes stick people in the floor below doors or, even better, lock up an entire team in their spawn until the opposition recaptures a point.

    Looks to me like you haven't played ctf_yaaaargh, the pirate ship map. Probably one of the coolest looking maps i've seen, and it still has great strategic value and balance. Honostly, you can never really get bored with this map.

    Good third party maps take time to come out, too. Sure, they may not have the acid-tested playability of something like Gravel Pit, but the thing is, they also get to build upon the lessons that Valve had to learn the hard way with the first party maps.

    When you have to build Granary from scratch, it takes many months of concerted effort to get it to where it is, even if the final product falls short of perfect. When you already have Granary and know what you do and don't like about it, you get faster results from your efforts toward something like Desert Fortress.

    Which, by the way, is an excellent little map.
