[poll] The Wall

[The IRS]

Well, are you?

 

[Afterburn]

What entry way?

 

[Black cat]

If I don't know which doorway has gone then I suppose it doesn't mean that much to me. Is it the end of the world for anyone else?

 

[Drew The Pirate]

If you're attacking, it's the building on the left-hand side of stage 1 cap 2. They've removed one of the doorways. Spies and some pyros are annoyed, as are scouts who used to be able to go out that door to get behind the cart if it was up far enough.

I, on the other hand, think that it's great. In my experience, it really keeps the red team out of that building, and gives the blue team someplace to regroup and prepare for a push. I like the change.

I just wish valve would have included a blurb in their changelog about it.

 

[Zopy]

Yeah, that area as given me a huge help in the games, but not anymore.

 

[!Woodstock!]

That door is key to whoever owned it. Ah well, gotta see how it plays without it.

 

[devereaux]

You mean this one?

 

[Indryd Cauld]

My comp is down, and I haven't been able to play in some time. Could someone post a clip or a gif or some clear pictures?

I'm sure you can appreciate the importance of this request.

I like the change. The first phase should favor the attackers a bit. Before the uptade it was kinda hard, because anytime BLU took the building RED would go through that door and take it back. Frustrating if you ask me. Without controling the building BLU has basicly no staging area.

 

[Mage]

I am so glad that door is gone, Blu now has a chance at winning now.

Also Red Engis have a blast protecting those stairs

If you are a:

Engineer, Heavy, Medic, Demoman, Soldier, you should be quite glad that there's a wall there.

Scouts, Pyros, Snipers and Spies lose a bit more from that wall.

 

[Dieinpeace]

Yes this was a very good patch to the map. It gives the Blue team a fighting chance at getting the A point here. With the wall thier it was mission impossible for the blue team to try and keep control of the area.
P.S. my first game of Goldrush after the patch this delete threw me off like crazy. I used to always use the opening.

 

[Groo]

I'm glad it's gone as well... It's nice to play the 2nd map of Goldrush now =)

Of course, now we'll learn all about the glitches and secret places on map 2 since more games will get that far.

[GenesisEDIT]

By removing the entry way it has become more difficult for the reds to defend and more easy for the blues to advance.
Sucks if you try to go Pyro, blues will just get a sentry up above there, you know, and your dead.
Still you can RJ or SJ up there, ^^

 

[sykocus]

I like the change. I don't have a lot of time on gold rush, but it seems to make the fight for control for the upstairs portion more vital.

 

[Iceman]

I honestly only like to play defense on goldrush and usually as a sniper. So even though I haven't played it since the change I think it should make it easier to snipe.
