I really don't like these new maps!!

[Yoko]

Hate in CA idiotic maps like Space Camp (especially when some teammates shooting from RL under your feet and sending you on a space journey), Toxicity and Gothic Rage - small, stupid and ugly.

Theatre of Pain and Cold War are too big for 4x4 / 5x5 / 6x6, so 'in game process' is slowwwwww cuz players (sometimes) can't find each other. Often players leave the server cuz they don't want hanging around 30 min. by waiting when other players will join (7x7 for example) and a further 10 minutes, until they press F3.

On the other hand maps like Evolution, Gothic Rage, Hell's Gate Redux are too small for 4x4 / 5x5 / 6x6, so 'TIER 4' warriors use shaft and half of players dies in 5 seconds after round starts.

Dies Irae really strange map, should be in CS, but not in QL. All the time tactics: run > hide > spam > hide > spam > run etc.

Notice, that i'm talking about new maps cycle in CA.

You expected me to burst in love and praise from happiness? As I primarily play CA, I'd still love to see Hidden Fortress, Almost Lost, Asylum on standard servers. Yes I know they will be available next month, so that's why, overall, this month's rotation is not bad.

Toxicity is a duel map, not CA.

Yep, but you can see Toxicity on the list in CA gametype and sometimes in match browser.

I really like space camp (a dm6 remake that's actually fun) and gothic rage (qw and q2 like map) for public play. Toxicity is not a CA map lol.

I have never liked ra3map1 but most people do. Also cold war isn't that big because it's connected by teleporters and jumppads, and has very diverse positions and angles. Those 2 don't draw people out of the server like other maps do.

Your complaints about evolution, gothic rage and hell's gate redux are about match making, not the maps themselves. BTW 2 of those are absolute quake classics.

And dies irae is not a CA map.


For CTF there are siberia and courtyard for pseudo competitive maps, but more importantly there are crowd pleasers like skyward and overlord (both which I really like). Anything that's not immense and isn't plain (like quarantine) is good for FFA, and tdm and duel have always been all about having a subscription and a good friend list.

In the end if you want to play dm6 for the 99999999th time the only choice is to pay, like 100% of games work, though I agree MM can still be improved (so you aren't paired with "tier4 lg-only players" if you can't do anything against them) and that some maps simply shouldn't be vote-able for all mods (dies irea ca) so the overall pool is smaller but better.

Maybe the real Quake fans bought a subscription and are playing any map they want, regardless of the monthly rotation? Maybe.

Why did I bother to write this? Just checked his account and it was made yesterday. Really have to get rid of these trolls (probably raythenoob and cooloutac smurfs), or restrict new accounts to the technical support subforum until X amount played (in-game medal).

I mean that Gothic Rage and Hell's Gate Redux is duel maps, not CA or TDM. And often there is no team play in CA, every man for himself.

So tell me please, why i see Toxicity and Dies Irae in CA server list?

Not discussing with someone who made an account yesterday just to troll.

Fixed internally, Toxicity will no longer be in any CA or FT rotations following our next update.

Will this be the case for pro-spawned servers as well? I don't think this is a big deal either way but I am just looking for some clarification.

Toxicity, as well as some other duel maps, will still be valid map choices in Start-a-Match, they just will not be in the public map rotations.
