Your friendly neighbourhood H*EA*T boys are trying to make our Dedicated Obz server better for YOU!
We are currently updating our map rotation and are looking for any requests for maps and modes that we don't feature, don't feature enough, or that you would just like removed.
Post any requests under two headings like so:
Requested Maps
Requested Modes
If you would like anything removed, list your preferrability in the same format. It's not hard kids

Snakelet, I bugged Roach and he put in a Mario Mode or two, and I'm going to make him throw HQ in as well, but we are going to leave out armoury.
Phoenix, we had a spelling mistake in the map rotation which is why we werent running strike and vacant (the rotation kept resetting when it hit the error), but I can assure you they are both back in there now with a couple of VIP and elim modes for each map.
LaZer:
Requests:
Strike: Read Above Showdown: Ill throw another one or two in the rotation, VIP or elim or even HQ? Vacant: Read Above Crash: I already whinged to Roach about this. We have more Crash in, but it's Mario mode. Take it or leave it. Bog: I'll make sure we get more of that in because I love it too. Broadcast: Maybe, havent found this map to be too popular.
Removals:
Countdown: No. Bloc: Will definitely consider it. Chinatown: The map only runs once in our rotation. I think you can live with it.

Well I request every map, excluding Winter Crash, Shipment, Killhouse & District (dies).
Why reduce the amount of maps? The current cycle has way too much Strike IMO, and there needs to be more variety. All maps FTW!
I love Bloc, please don't remove!!!
Broadcast: Favourite
Also, Mario mode is not so good in Crash. The best map IMO for it is Countdown as it is large and open, with not much indoors, and plenty of leaping room (which is needed)

i'd agree with snakelt, crash is good for elim, not mario, and again, countdown is good for mario becasue its open. basically... obey the commands of the snake!

Snakelet, funnily enough, I actually think killhouse would be quite epic for obs, and we may actually put that in for elim. We did put in district, just to see how it goes, and will rely on feedback whether to keep it or not.
We do try and keep the variety there but you've also got to allow the fav maps to be on a bit more. And actually, we have entirely much more crossfire than strike. Also rely on feedback about Broadcast and Bloc as to whether they will stay. Everytime the map comes up ill get everyones opinion when im in the server.
As for mario mode on countdown, i was under the impression you cant sit under overhangs or you die? Thats why we didnt make it Countdown for Mario. Too many silo doors to hide under.
Phoenix, this is why the thread is here, to get the feedback and make the gameplay better for you guys. Thanks for your opinion

district is likely to cause total server crash so if you must try it then do it first. anything above you kills you slowly in mario. countdown is hands down the map for it. make broadcast a hq map as it is great for it. finally mario on crash map sucks!

I changed the map rotation before I saw your post, because I'm rad like that.
District is gone.
mario is countdown
no broadcast HQ as of yet.
I did play bog as HQ, i found it to be quite enjoyable on that map

I warned him lol.
As for my reasoning for HQ or armoury for Broadcast, the map has a good layout, with not much line of sight to the HQ's so you really gotta move about a lot. It is not so good for VIP as they tend to camp the toilets. Other reason it is good is because you can make good tornados with all the physics objects around, and a lot of ways for obs to get about. It is a great map so please keep it in the cycle.
Superroach fixed the cycle.
