The replacement of the boards was due to people like anonymous who were completely unkillable on them without AoE spam. I always understood that to be the "contract" with the boards. You can get from A to B mostly unkillable, but you cannot attack vehicles, and when you exit you are on fo...

Even when I made MD, there was thought how do I counter a bunch of levis? EMP, big nuke, OMFG -- gave the guy on foot a chance to make a difference. Yes! It is exactly that kind of thinking which IMO differentiates between a good map and a great map (I'm not saying MD is a great map - too many OP v...

I agree with pooty that a lot of the spammy maps get voted because we generally have mostly mid to low skill (or just plain lazy) players that feel like they can't compete unless they have a super-powered spam monster to drive around. Maybe, but tactics and strategy are no longer sufficient. I can ...

Yes, anything to push against this community that just sits in rail tanks, Odins, and Mechs and snipes for frags.

Maps should not be created for selfish purposes. They have to be given thoughtful consideration of overall balance to be a good map. Your maps just don’t have that. I'm going to second that. It's also not personal and I very much appreciate the Hyperblast map. HSF is so chaotic and overwhelming tha...

From the comments. I know a lot of others enjoyed the Megas, spamming with a Levi variant, attacking the Levi variants, or zooming around on hover boards. I am strongly against this trend towards towards sniping, "Replaced omega with a yellowjacket, megabadgers with odins, and levis with a sing...

I don't know... A lot of what was removed, zipping around on hoverboards and grabbing nukes, restricted node access, AoE spam, EMP counters, etc. are what made the map tolerable and unique. But this now sounds more like the bastard hybrid spawn of HSH and a JY.

A stealth Ballista would be highly interesting. It might be lethal, lying in wait with the primary ready to fire. It could exit stealth when firing the primary or charging the secondary. I don't think I would up the damage too much, especially on the secondary... some players have a difficult time m...

Grabbing/holding the middle nodes and/or trying to get a manta in there is what made bitchslap a unique map. I'd personally rather see the tunnel removed in the hopes of preserving that aspect.

I liked the Ballista for anit-air back in the day. It's probably now outclassed by nearly everything though...
