Hydro server?

[B3r5erk]

hey i've been wondering that since we have the popular maps on our servers, how come hydro isn't 1 of them?

If I'm not mistaken i believe we had a hard time keeping it filled.

Basically it works like Badlands. Too many stalemates occur in the match for it to be enjoyable.

Actually stalemates are what keep servers full. People keep playing hoping for a resolution, sometimes playing longer than intended, like what happens on Warpath ALOT. Ever notice that Warpath only(usually) loses players at the end of rounds. The problem with Hydro is it really isnt as popular as most people think and on top of that, while it stalemates ALOT, the rounds really arent that long, so you end up losing people alot more often and it usually has a harder time refilling back up after losing people, which in turn can cause others to leave.

Well, yes. I just find that as one of the reasons. Only because Hydro is a map in which you need all six areas to win, and while stalemates are a bit motivational to win, it eventually tires out once you've seen to many, in my opinion.

HYDRO! WOOOOO

We've tried it a few times before, and it doesn't work. People just don't seem to want to play hydro. It stays full for like 4 hours a day and is either half full or empty the rest of the time.

I really like the concept of Hydro but I don't like the map itself thaaat much. It's nice and all but that's really it.

I think you just answered your own question.

I personally love this map but yea you can never find a full server of it. I personally HATE HATE HATE stalemates. I would rather have a random class melee at the end to decide the victor but yea.

Hydro=great concept Hydro map=meh

 

[Sandman]

I love hydro it just won't stay full

 

[Cicatriz]

I love hydro as well

You're going to get tired of my standard response, but here it is:

Our best measure of how much fun you're having on our servers is how full they stay. If they attract and keep players, we're providing a fun environment people enjoy. If they don't, we know we need to change something. We know we have great people in the clan on our servers. We know our admining rules keep most of our servers full, so that leaves the map.

Our Hydro servers in the past haven't ever stayed very full for very long. Don't worry, many of us do enjoy it and you will see it as a scrim map from time to time, and we do try out old maps to see if they perform better than in the past now and again.

Keep great ideas coming, but don't be surprised if we've tried it and it just didn't work as well as we'd have liked.
