Hi Guys,

I noticed you don't get as much volume in both of your CTF servers as you did with DMCTF..

Since there are NO Other DM CTF servers around, can you take your least populated server and re-convert it back to DM CTF?

Thanks

Sharp is right. The latest squall of valve updates mortally wounded the ctf maps. Detpacks make the server crash, doors get wacky. We're gone :(

 

I'm sorry you won't be joining us, Reapsta.

 

The next version. 1.8

Domination style arena!

 

Sounds good.. thought I cant rightly say I remember playing a crossfile in dm? Illenta is this your cup o tea?

Its a classic dm map.  Basically a spanish style courtyard(RPG in the middle of courtyard, take major fire tryiing to grab it)  With 2 story buildings all around it with weapons and energy chargers in different room.  Lots of balconys and ledges and windows to snipe.  Then there is a grassy plain behind courtyard that is a small open area that can be reached via  a main tunnel from couryard or to staiways from buildings on eighter side or from second level ledge in adjacent courtyard building.  On other side of grassy plain is a combine fortress.  Has main rollup door with chargers right in main lobby(If yoou are uising chargers you are in direct sniper fire from buildings)  in side combine fortress are two sniping battlements(WW2 style bunker opinings for firing across grass area) and the back corner rooms have ammo for every weapon.  the middle back room has a control panel with a button that can be pushed to set off the nuke. Also two ladders in front on eigther side that lead to upper sniping platforms with cover.  Each of those platforms has a staight fall into lower ammo room and safety from nuke.  So when nuke set off an air raid siren sounds and you must get into combine fortress to survive.  The rollup doo starts shutting to block entrance after about 10 second and takes about 20 seconds to completly shut.  The only other way in after that is the outside ladders.  The doors for that drop down dont shut until right before the bomb goes off at about 40 seconds.  So you can get in that way after main door shuts and also allows snipers to stay up there until last second.  If you don't get inside the fortress you die when bomb goes off. Afterwords rolling door slowly opens back up to allow players out.  Bomb can only be set off every 3 minutes or so so you cant keep pushing it continuoulsy.  I believe this was a team fortess classic map originally before being ported over to DM.  Usually played team death match of course.  This map is still in rotation on alot of DM servers out there so you should be able to find it with the map filter if you look.  Various versions out that have changes like disabling ladders on base(Which sucks) or diabling the killing featyre of the bomb.(Which also sucks and takes awya point of map. )  I hope this strikes someones memory here.  Was a very popular map for a year of so after HL2 deathmatch came out.

Your thinking of runoff.  Similar concept.  Different layout.  That map would be good too.  But not as fun as crossfire 2.  Runoff = more open areas and more melee combat.  Crossfire =  more covert sneaky action and sniping with close in firefights.
