Map change

[-(P)- Dabster]

Hello everyone! 

I originally wanted to post this onto the suggestion section, but i think a discussion fits the topic even more.

I've been playing Fearless for quite a while now, and i can't remember when we had the last map change. Not that i don't have anything against the current map, its just that i don't understand why the monthly map rotations have been removed, i know that the devs are working on something new right now, but the majority of people i've asked were supporting my idea of a new map(map change). Since this is a discussion i am assuming that lots of people will now comment and discuss which map it should be, though thats not the priority for me here. My goal is to maybe see how the community as a whole would like to get another map rotation, maybe not every month but atleast not remove it completely. My suggestion for a change would be evocity v4d, but as i said, i'd be more than happy with any other map to be honest. After all these months, San Ranevo truly is getting a bit tiring, and im surely not the only one that feels like that.

Since this is a discussion thread, I would love to hear what you guys think of my idea and a map change in general! so feel free to leave your ideas, comments and especially opinions down below! hope we can all come to a conclusion.

Best regards!

I believe there's a super secret private map in development, but we're more likely to see Half life 3 before the release of the FL map, honestly we've been through most of the maps and threads like this pop up everytime it switches, we'll see.

We could do with a monthly map change or every 2 months and choices could be

evocity_v4b1
evocity_v2d
Littletown
evocity_v5p
sanranevo

I agree with his opinion.Many peaole getting bored of the same map because it's not changed for long time even me.

The map should be changed until our new map complete.

The reason why map rotation was removed was because whenever the community pick an map such as V2D, the population of the server would be dead and dry. No one would show up to play because of the map despite numerous people saying V2D would bring them the “nostalgic” feeling.

It can also get a little annoy when you're planning event and that day happens to be the day where the server change its map and you have to rework on the dupe.

The map vote was removed as it just resulted in a swap every single month which ended up harming the server more than it did good. A lot of people couldn't plan events and such around the constant map changes and as such it was removed. It also took way too much dev effort as a lot of the older maps aren't fully setup with newer features (they might now be mostly setup, I just remember having to rush out so many things for constant switches).

There really isn't any way of winning here. The same map for too long gets boring and no single map is really perfect for everything FL needs. A map rotation makes events and building a bit useless if it swaps too often and if it's too long then people get bored. Everyone likes different things in a map too and there really isn't a general community understanding of what everyone wants in a map.

that's why it can be changed every 2 or 3 months

To be honest... We should literally switch one more time before the new costum map comes out. I believe that the costum map will still take months. We had SanRanevo for a quite long time now and yes it wasn’t bad but still.. I think the majority of the community wants to see either an EvoCity-Map back or just an other one.

One more switch wouldn’t hurt us.
