Subject: About carrying over old maps...

I've been thinking - perhaps it is time to cut the cord.

Since Cancer seems like it'll never go away, it 0fear and (maybe) slab should prolly stay on for later versions. Otherwise, let's pack in more of these newer maps, to get away from the constant "cancer/0fear/slab/acid" routine you almost always see on the servers.

I guess I'm just saying that perhaps no more than three of the old school maps should survive. Otherwise, I'm afraid that things may get stale after awhile.

Also, most of the WF "issues" that crop up seem more map-based than gameplay-based. goodyears, sentry behaviors, etc... all of the opinions are expressed like this: "well, on cancer/slab/0fear this happens..." IMO, gameplay and balance complaints come from people who base those complaints on their experiences in the old-school maps more often than something that came to them in general.

I dunno - these are just random thoughts more than anything else, but does anyone else here feel like I do, that we should keep only a couple of the old-school maps, so as to help things evolve better?

/P
