Map Rotation

I just want to say that I love the Jedi Academy map, its a true work of art. Too much of a good thing can become a bad thing, so I am asking this...

For the love of all that's holy, rotate the map on the home server.

There's only like 500 maps out there that could be chosen from.

Disclaimer: This post in no way expresses any explicit dissatifaction in the way the Academy works. It is merely a suggestion stemming from the boredom caused by logging over 1000 hours of playing on the same map. This message will self destruct in 5, 4, 3, 2, ....

Well, I said that cause I heard you were still in the middle of beta testing, and there wasn't any real timeframe of when it was going to be released to my knowledge, plus you've been working on it for quite a while, so I just figured it was still going to be a while. Apparently, I was wrong :)

v2 won't be released anytime too soon. I'd say give it another month, tops.

Thats true, but still a change every now and then couldn't hurt to add a little more life.

Simple. When in game the people in the server at that time could talk about changing map and see what everyone thinks about it. Also if people just treat each other with general respect there isn't really any need for rules.

Guys what about hardwireds other points,

A) The rules (I personaly dont think this would be too bad a problem but Hardwired did make them so he should know

B) What if not everyone likes the maps?

I know i personaly would prefer to always know im safe with the_Academy rather than play a map i love and then 5 or 6 I hate.

Well, that's why we don't have ffa on a duel map ;)
But still, I play on default ffa maps all the time on pubs, and I've had no FPS issues. But I guess it all depends on the person and what their computer can handle. :)

The FPS sucks.

Go into Jedi Academy, open the console and type "/map mp/duel2". I mean, how can you duel on this map? :D

WOW n00b, thats a great idea!

Sorry i only got to read it today, so everyone probably already told you this. But its about time someone got out there on the soapbox and made their opinion heard. I mean the_academy map is great and alll, but you can't just play ball in your own backyard all the time, can you? :P

Remember, variety is the spice of life, and a change is as good as a holiday ;)

Indeed he does, haven't you ever heard him talk about it on TS? :D

Anyways, we don't need to upload NEW maps in order to get a map rotation. There are plenty of ffa, ctf, single player, and seige maps that came with the game. All we have to do is vote on which ones people would prefer to play on IF any. :)
