TF Tuesdays - 2/2 - One of our other favorites just got updated

[CaffeinePowered]

ctf_mercy_b1 - Now with demospam window, this just might be rotation worthy

ctf_snowdrift_b3 - Oh ffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff, it got updated

koth_persia_b3 - time manipulating powers not included

ctf_atrophy - Linear rolling CTF...wtf does that mean? I hope the flag moves over time cause that would be fucking epic



All of these maps look very visually stunning, I think this will be a TFT you do not want to miss!

I just hope he made it a little more difficult to get the first 2 points

proper use of sentry guns and you can bog the first point down pretty well i think.

Ive seen every point on snowdrift held by a team, IMO when any point is "hold-able" it makes for a much better map

The series "lost" me after season 2, god it was so good, then it became "soap opera on an island" and "how long can we keep this going until the network pulls the plug".  :-\


Of course....there's always TiVo.....or Hulu  :

[ribozyme]

It uses a linear rolling ctf mechanic, like in ctf_backpier, to prevent stalemates and keep games tight; as each round progresses, the intel briefcases will roll forward until they reach the middle. If the flag is taken, the cart will stop until it's returned; if it's captured the carts will roll back to the beginning of their track and creep forward once more. The flags cannot be captured unless the capturer's team's flag is resting on the cart.

Sounds cool



Will be there.

I have yet to see anybody hold the first point, it usually gets demo spammed until everybody is dead/running away

The rolling CTF map was not nearly as cool as advertised

[backfire]

Updated snowdrift was a huuuge disapointment. Was expecting some new rooms, paths or whatnot...  :'(

meh, it's still a good map.

[[fr31ns]Karrde]

Mercy was ok.  Didn't notice much in the way of changes to snowdrift.  Sounds like mostly bug fixes.  Would still like to see the final Blu spawn a tad closer as it becomes such a clusterfuck on the final point.

[vilepickle]

mercy demo as always = win <3

I liked mercy, I think a lot of the bitching came from blue running kritskreigs right into the flag, then running out with it  :-*


demos

[vilepickle]

Well flag penetration is usually healthy on a CTF map.  I'll review the demo to see what happened :o

[vilepickle]

Yeah those crits looked fun and extremely effective.

It looks like there's roughly the amount of attack-ability that I want in the flagroom now.  If the caps get any more rapid than that you'll have to raise the server cap limit to compensate, but it's decent at 3 still.
