Friday Night Fights 2/5 - Crazy What-If Machine Mix-Up Edition

[Live-Free-Or-Pie]

Hokay so GOOD NEWS EVERYONE, this is my first ever crack at hosting an FNF, so here goes nothing:


Good news everyone!

I've invented a device that can predict the outcome of any “What-if” question. And we're going to use it for this next Friday Night Fights! We're going to be taking maps that we're all familiar with and see WHAT those maps would be like IF they were a little bit different

:o It's CRAZY WHAT-IF MACHINE MIX-UP NIGHT!!!1!  :o

What if ctf_2fort didn't go on for ever and ever and ever?
What if we put railroad tracks down in cp_dustbowl?
What if payload mode never existed when Valve made pl_goldrush?
What if tc_hydro sucked less than that torrid metaphor of Scout's Mother you just thought up?
What if koth_sawmill got rid of its capture point?

<SHAZAM!>

</SHAZAM!>

The map list for Friday is:
koth_2fort (http://www.fpsbanana.com/maps/107184)
pl_dbheights (EDIT!)
cp_goldrush (http://www.fpsbanana.com/maps/112215)
pl_hydro (http://www.mediafire.com/?tgzywk2zmzw) (EDIT! thanks ribo!)
ctf_sawmill (stock map, you already have it)

We'll do the first map straight, have some PUG action for Dustbowl, and see where it goes from there.

Should be a fun experiment! Hope to see you there!

Sincerely,
Hubert J. Farnsworth

I'll be there, i guess.

[Benito Mussolini]

Oh hi. A shame I'm missing this =(

I'll have a payload verison of hydro up as per Ribo's request

[Didzo]

The OP lacks a "Good news, everyone!" as an introduction.

I demand a post edit.

sounds fun

pl_hydro can be found here

May I also request that we play it as one of the first maps, pie?  Last time we ran it it was the last map of the night and it didn't get a full test.

You may want to consider running pl_dustbowl_b5

I played it recently and it has been reworked and rebalanced a lot imo.

EDIT: On closer inspection it appears there are two different "families" of pl_dustbowl maps.  Run whichever you want.

PL_Hydro?  Fuck yeah.  I still say it should go all the way around from where it starts and end where it starts, only the tracks are slightly too short and Blu can't win.  Also, there's no time limit.  So the map just ends when it hits the map time - and ends in a stalemate - just like tc_hydro

That sounds like a great idea. Caff do you copy?

We already have pl_dbheights and pl_dustbowl, do you really want a 3rd pl_dustbowl?

[Live-Free-Or-Pie]

Let's go with the pl_dbheights thats on the FTP, to keep it simple

[Tricks]

I gave +1 because I kind of like Futurama

[Professor Funbucks]

And I'll be the other guy, you know, needs courage, not enough of it, needs to see the wizard.

Unless dbheights has been updated, we might wanna give B5 a try.  Heights is still pretty bad, though better than pl_dustbowl when we last played it.  Anyone have recent experience?

Actually Im pretty sure B5 is dbheights, I know that one of the pl_dustbowls changed their name at the end of development to dbheights  :-\

Also tonight I likely wont be around until later, so if shit hits the fan badly, get ahold of Surf, HeK, or Kor

HeK will not be there tonight either. We are going to the farm for my dad's b-day.

Oh good.  dbheights has some truly wicked sentry spots...
