V2D as main server

[Xtremefighter]

For all new players / Passive Roleplayers: 

V2D is far superior for passive roleplay, The map is simply superior and as its so compact your roleplay will always go noticed, always. As well as this, The shops are literally built for passive roleplay and dupes can be made easily and properly to fit them. 

Aggressive Roleplayers / Government Roleplayers: 

The servers FPS rate when the server is full and everyone has cars/props down is absolutely amazing compared to v5p, even when i had a literal potato for a PC i could run that map on a full server at 40+ fps flat. Which makes all types of aggro/gov Roleplay better.

For everyone saying it failed before so it will fail again:

90% of you are new players so let me educate you.

v2d was the map Fearless built its playerbase upon and is the map that made FL what it is today.

It has failed in the past because it has been added as a secondary server while another server has been active getting many players.

The reason why v2d failed recently is because you put it on a server while v5p was already big, So most people never checked over the v2d map or even now it existed on a secondary server, so they only played v5p.

Now there is only one server, if v2d was used on that, It would 100% be successful and prosper with a larger playerbase than v5p as it would bring back many old players for the sake of nostalgia who would most likely fall in love with FL again.

It's as simple as this: If v2d was on the only FL Roleplay server, Everyone would play it and fall in love with it again as it would not go neglected and its a superior map to v5p.

Why not introduce two 50 slot servers?

This both improves the server load, performance and will make the game mode playable again.

One V2D one V5P, simple.

I love how people are in full support of it when you all had the chance to really make it the main server. If you all played it when it came back it could have stayed. However one day after it returned it was dead. You all had the chance but let it slip away.

Don't act like nobody played it after day 1 of it's relaunch, Joe Joe. Myself and several others played it over v5p until it was taken away again. Plus, I re-iterate my argument of the community being stretched across 2 servers, with 1, it will work out.

Lewwings, if there are two servers and one is more popular then the other, it is more popular then the other.

If V2d was so great then that server would have been full and v5p empty, but it was the reverse.

Most of the players that recently joined FL normally join the server that has the most players at the time and don't bother going onto the other server, increasing the average player-count of v5p, that I believe is what brought v2d down, as only older players really played on v2d.

So we have evidence of it not being successful in a recent trial verses 'i believe'. I know whchw side I am on.

But we arent going to change the map for the old players, when v5p seems to be attracting new players

Which is why I recommend two 50 slot servers it solves a large amount of issues we are currently experiencing.

Oh yeah, forgot this point, v2d has sooo much history related to it; whether it be SAA clan RPs that were hosted there or unforgettable one-off RPs hosted by community members. v2d is very engrained on Fearless' history, so why not make more history on it?

If v2d was added again, it'll still attract new players whether or not it's an old map.

You ask why go back to V2D, have you seen the amount of FPS Lag?

[JackZ]

I rarely see people with low hours nowadays on v5p, only people will high hours. However, i always saw people with low hours constantly when v2d was highly populated.

Because people on GMod genuinely look for servers that use the map, Because not many servers use the map people who love it will play it regardless.

[Broccoli]

Is this really a thing again? Stop asking for v2d, as people have said it's terribly outdated. If you want a smaller, less laggy map then come up with a suggestion for a newer one.
