View Full Version : TF2 Custom Maps

As we have three TF2 Servers currently in play, should we use one of the three to play-test Custom Maps?

I propose that we give them a 'limited run', with the standard map rotation and one Custom Map introduced/played each week, to see how our Regs and Forum Members react to them. Then, we can read on the Forums exactly how everybody is liking/disliking each map being played.

As it is now, I'm aware of two Custom Maps being bantered around, so perhaps we could setup one of the Servers to run one next week, and one the following week, and set the messaging up to say, "Give us feedback on these Custom Maps by visiting www.northernresistance.com Forums!"

You will note that I have made the Poll very simple, and to the point, in the interest of making my point very clear. It is the OPPORTUNITY that we are asking about, not whether or not YOU personally enjoy Custom Maps.

(It's not always about YOU...) ;)

there's no way I can do this.
A lot of work is put into setting custom maps on the server ( ask Gerry about all the steps, I ran him through it once) and I can't load one up just to find out that after 3 minutes of game play everyone finds out it's stupid.

The maps have to go through the same screening process they go through now. I have to play them, make sure that they aren't shite and don't cause issues server/client side and then I load them up. Once they get loaded up everyone can feel free to say if they like them or not and if after all my testing people hate the map and the server looses players because of it, we'll take it off. But as I said in THE OTHER CUSTOM TF2 MAP THREAD, I'm too busy with other things to test customs right now

Perhaps it's time to employ some of our other 'assets' to the task? I'm sure you could find more than one capable person who would be happy to assist with taking on some of your Projects?
