50% + 1 ticket bleed mod status
Last I heard Dragon Valley is the only map that has been modded to have 50% + 1 ticket bleed. What is the status of modding Kubra Dam, Operation Clean Sweep, Sharqi Peninsula, and Strike at Karkand? If it is a matter of resources I am willing to help get this done.

Clean Sweep is also done. The others will probably not be done before the patch. We would have to redo them at that time anywa.

Actually, I got hung up because I was trying to fix other bugs along the way, then we got close to 1.03 and decided to hold off for the moment.
I do have something you can help with. I will PM you soon.

Ahh, good point. Are we planning to immediately add bleed to all of the above maps right after the patch comes out?

Re: 50% + 1 ticket bleed mod status
Well, I don't know.. Some people were saying that the bleed on Dragon Valley, for instance, actually hurt the Chinese more than helped. Clean Sweep definitely needs it, Kubra Dam probably, but I'm not sure about Karkand and Sharqi. What do you guys think?

Re: 50% + 1 ticket bleed mod status
I'm for 50% + 1 bleed on all maps. I think there should be a penalty for not being able to hold at least half of the map. And I think it's especially important on Karkand and Sharqi. Without bleed there's virtually no reason to leave your base. Just take cover from arty and shred the enemy as they try to come through the choke points. Also, with bleed you could lose your base and still have a decent chance of winning the round by holding the majority of the rest of the map. Originally Posted by Tempus

Re: 50% + 1 ticket bleed mod status
We'll need to see if they did any balance tweaking on the maps. We will spend some time back on the default settings in 1.03 before we
On TG, we run the maps with a higher initial ticket count than what the maps were designed for, and I think that factors into the way the map plays. On assault maps, the defending team is supposed to build up an insurmountable lead at the start, and the attacking team is supposed to overcome that lead by crushing the defenders right out of existance. With the high ticket count, that lead becomes meaningless, even if the defending team controls the map for a long time.Peace through fear... since 1947!

Re: 50% + 1 ticket bleed mod status
I think that's a great analysis of why the assault maps don't work well on TG. With 50% + 1 bleed I think the advantage of starting out with all of the flags and possibly holding bleed for awhile balances the disadvantage of having a capturable base. Originally Posted by icky

Take a risk and go for the enemy base, play it safe and try to hold the majority of the map, or possibly some combination of the two. This requires the defenders to really be on their feet, ready to respond to multiple scenarios.
