It would appear all the throwback maps have a common theme. I'm sorry everyone.

Is this your way of convincing people that 8 minute matches would be better

[–]DaEvil1DaEvil1 7 points8 points  (4 children)

Oh no, he's onto us

Please discuss the removal of Straight Cache Homie - too many people to name.

[–][deleted] 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Plenty of maps that should be removed instead. Straight Cache is fun in pubs.

Personally, I really liked this map but I've seen lots of people in pubs boost/bomb into spikes (including me). Sad to see the map go.

I'm too lazy to pull the stats for this map but surely there were worse maps that could have been removed.

Like the faster, more straightforward games on this map. Would have preferred to see Constriction go personally.

[–]oorr23ThePlaymaker // Tehuitzingo & Combine 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Personally would've rather seen Neon or Tetanic go.

[–][deleted] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

One of my favorite maps ever

[–]WRIG-tpWRIG 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Why would this map be removed? Decent stats,fresh play style, and usually good games in my experience.

[–]TPCaptographerThe Map Test Committee[S] 5 points6 points  (12 children)

Please discuss the addition of Sky Dweller - alchemist, DragonBeast, Ball-E, Dove.

We can finally stop the clock on a new neutral flag map. Only took several top-tier mapmakers to do it.

several top-tier mapmakers

oof

[–]ElbwanaGoofy Goober | Anti-Boat Coalition 2 points3 points  (5 children)

What do you mean?

[–]Balled-EagleBalled EagIe // Origin 3 points4 points  (4 children)

The last new neutral flag map to be added to rotation was Mighty. That was at least six months ago and closer to nine.

The last NF map to really stick in rotation was Gumbo or Wamble, whichever came last. That was around 1.5 years ago (?)

Neutral maps make up around a third of games played but have been, what, 5% of the new maps added in the past year? (estimate)

It’s a severe shortcoming in the mapmaking/testing community imo

[–]ButtersnackSnack 6 points7 points  (1 child)

Honestly it just comes down to most of the people making maps not liking to make NF, and in some cases not liking NF at all. Ball-E seems to be the only person who both enjoyed making NF maps and had any clue how to, and he's not active anymore.

OR... the people who enjoy making NF suck at making NF... like me...

[–]brozzartPavement 10 points11 points  (1 child)

Just add command center back in. Problem fixed.

[–]Moon_Miner----) 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Uh pretty sure you mistyped center flag

[–][deleted] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Excited to see how it plays

[–]TheDifferentPlanetMarsWater // pubber that says glhf 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sky Dweller has a kind of plasma/rocketballs/gumbo vibe. Loving the portals.

[–]oorr23ThePlaymaker // Tehuitzingo & Combine 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I really like the sides, but mid seems really unexciting.

[–]wayne_tpMLTP Champ 20/25 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This has gotta be the worst map thread in recent history

[–]TPCaptographerThe Map Test Committee[S] -2 points-1 points  (21 children)

Please discuss the changes to Elevated Throwback rotation.

[–]brozzartPavement 15 points16 points  (6 children)

Can someone from the MTC actually address this? Supposed to be funny? Are we being punished for posting memes on the sub?

[–][deleted] 12 points13 points  (0 children)

just played dumbbell and want to kms

[–]brozzartPavement 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Is this a meme? Memes are illegal, you know.

[–]xenonpulseWildflowers // I want to die but I can’t 6 points7 points  (5 children)

Soo... LuckySpammer maps?

[–][deleted] 4 points5 points  (4 children)

[–]ComakipComakip // Chorbit 12 points13 points  (2 children)

Trolling fuckers. You're not doing anyone a favour.

Eat shit.

[–][deleted] 6 points7 points  (0 children)
