BG42 market research

[[JiF]Sgt Shellshocked]

Yes I agree with you Frenchy , the MOB server map rotation includes a lot of huge boring tank maps. The constant map voting is annoying because almost always the vote is inconclusive so we end up on a huge boring tank map with a constant stream of annoying map votes that don't result in a map change. This ties in with the comment made by Alex about hiding, I think that a lot of the MOB players like to sit in the biggest tank that they can find , hide somewhere and take long range pot shots without any desire to cap a flag. This is noticeable by the high kill/death rates acheived by such players , our friend Gnomey is a prime example of this. We should learn from this when we implement our BG42 Mondays so that we have a selection of good fun maps in our rotation and leave out most of the huge boring maps.

We have a lot of skilled pilots. They should take out these sitting ducks like Gnomey

I am really looking forward to play BG42 on our own server. There are some interesting inf-maps. I like St. Mere Eglise for example ...

[[JiF]FrenchAfroman]

st mere eglise is amazing one of my favs.

my favs are
St:mere eglise, milnai bay, merderet brisge stalingrad factories, aces over italy/flying tiger.

lt.moeder theresa was the guy who made the best inf maps(i think he made 8 of them)
ill look into good maps and maybe i or someone else can write down a cool rotation. i would do it but i m leaving for turley tomorow so i wont have too muchg time

[[JiF]Sgt Shellshocked]

Yes they are great maps , I also like Anguar and the conquest version of Remagen. Enjoy your holiday in Turkey Frenchy maybe you could PM me a list of other good maps before you go.

[[JiF]Alexander theGreat]

Frenchy, please send a "Doener" from Turkey to me, "mit alles und scharf"

Thanks for the links Alex you really are Great LOL

[[JiF]Gib]

yes, tired of regular maps

[Gnome-father]

its sad that lt. moder theresa is dead. if he where stil alive he could make more infantry maps.

btw, does some bg maps have scripted explosions? (shells that appear from nowhere and hits the ground to make it realistic and intense) if so then 1944 omaha beach is my favorite! set it in rotation!

Alex told me about the BGmaps and i would like to join you on mondays.

I vote YES.

[[JiF]Sgt Shellshocked]

I am sure there will be some tweaks that need to be done. But the server should stop the current game and restart running BG42 at 2:30 AM on Mondays. It will then revert back to BF42 coop at 2AM on Tuesday. I disabled waiting for the current round to finish. When it's time for a change it will happen right away now for all modes.

[Gnome-father]

that means...the server will be bg42 for 23 and a half hours?

anyway...Thanks Mike!

[[JiF]Alexander theGreat]

It starts today?

I will be there this evening at 10 pm german time

[[JiF]Mike]

I have updated the Server schedule post to reflect the changes.
