TG WIC server? Maybe a Custom Map Server?

**peardog** · 11-23-2007, 08:26 AM

How about a Niche for the TG server... CUSTOM maps only... the site WICBASE.com has a nice growing collection..and I am sure more to come... Maybe that could be our NICHE... have a map pack etc... I am sure some folks are getting sick of the same maps over and over... The lack of ranking is a negative.. but at this point maybe some folks don't care and they just want a different Game play experience???

Just a thought..

Sounds like a good idea.

Bc2ID · 11-23-2007, 05:32 PM

great idea....give them something new and exciting.

Yeah good idea.

Which maps are worth having? Has anyone played any of these maps or are we just thinking of tossing random maps up? I would suggest that we create a thread for user made maps that allows for comments. You like a map, post it in the thread as to why you like it. Once we have 5 or 6 maps, then set it up for TG people to easily download them and get the server rocking.

What about having them on a monthly rotation? Every month we shift to another 6 maps or so.

Yeah..I haven't Played any of them yet... Kinda hard with single player I thing... They would need to be vetted I guess..or just thrown up there and played and kicked off when they are deemed junk...

Nah, you download it, create a local server and set up some bots for opponents. Walk through the map checking out the flag points and if you find that it's a balanced map then comment that you think it's balanced. If you think it's a biased map, comment why you think it's biased. If you have a lot of WIC in game experience, it shouldn't take much to eyeball it and figure out how it will play out.

Don't forget we could also use maps that fellow TGers create

I forgot to mention this, but Massive has released a WiC Wiki to help players make maps and such. I havent really looked at it, but it looks useful.

Sounds like a good idea for the future. Not too many maps out yet. I'm working on one based on my hometown but it's coming slowly and I don't have photoshop which makes it a tad harder.

Is their any way to dynamically change spawn points for domination mode maps? I know you can change the spawn areas in front line and conquest maps. My idea here is to make more maps like Liberty, but once your team establishes a beachhead you can start bringing in units at that beachhead. Likewise is there any known way to change the relative value of a unit. I would think on these maps non-amphibious armor should be more expensive than typical.

Also for you POE guys, what about possibly rebuilding and expanding upon those maps? The ones that interests me the most are (if you haven't already guessed) Crimea, Berezan Island, and the new Raid on Kerch.
