New Rotations
« on: March 09, 2005, 04:50:22 AM »

Ok we're opening up the latest new rotations to comment. Changes:
- 12 maps per day
- Custom maps introduced at a ratio of 2 standard to 1 custom (not including the 2 cs_assault remakes and custom as_ maps)
- roughly 8 de_ maps, 3 cs_ maps and 1 as_ map per day
- Popular maps (like dust2, aztec) appear more frequently than less popular maps (like chateau, prodigy)
- Customs have been picked based on what has proven successful in the past while still including some maps so far unplayed on the server
- All the maps necessary to make these rotations work have been loaded onto the server and fast download
What do you think?

wow 2000 posts  
maps look good to me - but id play just about anything - i dont care what map it is i'll sit there for 15-20mins and wait for someone to join. If no one does then i go play somewhere else till i get bored, then i sit in CSR for another 10mins or so
thats my new approach to trying to get involved with you guys, but the time difference seems to mean i've only had about a 10% success rate at getting any sort of game going.....

What time are you going on Rob? It might also help if you stick to one name so we know it's you when looking in the server info!

it tends to be early evening through the week - which is probably the problem...
my name tends to be the first thing that comes in my head........
but that shouldnt be a problem the last few have been things like......
"come play cs with Pancho he's bored"
"Pancho wants to play with YOU"
"so nobody wants to take on Pancho"
i think you get the idea
i stopped going "undercover" after i nearly got banned for playing with the name "CSR = n00bs"

The truth always hurts, kinda like getting hit by a MACK truck.
Edit : I'll keep it somewhat relevant. What's the ETA on a new map pack(s)?

If the rotations sit here for another day or so without negative comment then I'll whip them up as soon as you can say 'Grounded has just whipped up some new maps packs really quickly'.

Havana is awesome. CTs actually have decent chance of rescuing the hostages.
I was kidding about storm. That map is probably the worst map I've ever played outside of "the_stairs".

I think the_stairs might just be the most onesided map ever.

Ok there is a problem with as_dolomiten. For some reason no one could download the wad, even though it's on the server AND the fast dl. I'll reupload the map tomorrow and see if that fixes it.

It's so obvious I shouldn't mention it, but you never know-- did you check the .res?
Oooo! Also, if it just happened tonight, ALL of ReconGamer's web services went down for about half an hour. csreloaded, recongamer.com, EVERYTHING was dark, including fast DL. It's obviously back up now, so try the map again and see if it was just bad timing.

I added a res when we realised it wasnt working and it didnt seem to help. I'm reuploading the wad now in case it was dodgy. Even if fast dl went down (and it didnt when we were on cause ppl fast dled fifth_ave and rapidtransit afterwards) the server still had all the necessary files on it to send...
