I personally hate 24/7 one map servers. The only reason we have one is because it draws a crowd.

Tempest 1 is running three sacrifist maps currently:

avanti, warpath2, and rock2

avanti was a lot of fun but I did notice that on certain stairs and corners I kept getting caught up.

gameplay wise it moves really fast, it's hard to defend the first point because scout rush can get in there so easy. second point is impossible to defend from rocket and nade jumpers with the flag. third and fourth points are a little easier to defend.

I dig the map alot..has the same avanti feel to it. The caps happen a lot faster than the TFC version of it but I think people are still trying to adapt the modern class abilities to the older map.

Some of the old sentry placement locations are still good to go and have a great effect at the bottlenecks. 

 All the people that remember the original know the best way to attack / defend this thing the people that are New to the map will soon adapt and we will have some great defense after they do. Until then the offense has the advantage and can just tough it through the chaos.

I thought it was really sweet to see and old friend (avanti) and play with the new toys (classes) and see what they are capable of.

One has to remember to defend those arial attacks...old schoolers can remember the conc jumpers and rocket jumpers we had to swat down.

Cant sit back on defense with this one. The flag (intel) will reset in a short amount of time. A great D will try to prevent them from picking it up from point 1 or point 2 etc. They cant cap what the cant get. Treat it somewhat like a CP map. ( even though you cant get the point back you can control the area)

Offense tip:  Beware of the engy that can get behind your lines and set up a SG at your spawn point near cap #1 as you are trying to get #3.

I'm looking forward to trying the map - looks fun from what I have seen of it thus far (only seen Crawdad catching rockets to the face, so it hasn't been a whole lot of the map). I really miss the xbows though - those were so much fun on that map. I was happy last night to see some snipage (yes, I made it up) on the map. It does look like a challenge, but who doesn't like a challenge??

This map is ideally suited for 7 players on each side at the most. After that it becomes a shitshow and it becomes simply too clogged to bust through most of the time. Excellent map nonetheless.

Really? From the rounds Ive played, which has been about 10 or so, the map starts to really shine after there are 7 or more. It is at its best when the server has at least 20 or more. Its pretty easy to bust through if there are medics around. Im thinking about setting the timers at 10 minutes for the first 2 caps and adding 10 minutes after the second cap. That means that its basically a bonus to cap the first 2 quickly but it also makes the defense have to deal with only 20 minutes total if the Offense gets past cp2. This map is pretty balanced though from what Ive seen. Ive seen teams defend every point so far. Ive seen blue steam roll red and Ive seen defenses break down and lose. I personally think the map is made for every class. Only class that is at a loss on this map is the sniper imo.
