JB Map Rotations

[osai]

I'll keep it a buck, I'm getting sick of the same few maps being played. While the overplayed maps are well made they are still overplayed, so I humbly suggest (weekly?) map rotations. There are maps that need light shone on them, and some maps that need the light taken away from them. (cough cough vip cough cough) A weekly map rotation would keep the game from feeling bland and could show people maps that they might not have ever played before. Just imagine being able to play different games every round... Thank you for considering :3

Hello Osai it is I, Freddy Fazbear! We have seen this post many times in a different format. Currently jailbreak is running much different from it's original 9 map rotation to a an 11!

We recently have been seeing new maps played on the server daily! While at first it was a little annoying I feel as if eventually the server will settle into this 11 map rotation and then possibly we can think about these kind of options.

However with this weekly map rotation option, some players will get tired of playing well the same maps over and over again. The maps that played often are played often because they are fun no?

Like Freddy Fazbear said, there has been many similar suggestions for this, but in the end, people like playing familiar maps. It's what keeps the server alive and the population high. Although I also don't like playing some of the more popular maps, I think if people are voting for them then it is what it is. If you want to play underrated maps then a good idea is to be the first one to nominate it and eventually it should get nominated

Restricting maps weekly will not happen. Maybe raising the map cooldown a little bit more could help.

Another alternative, make a suggestion post with a voting system that allows players to vote for their map, but still gives lesser played maps a chance.

map cooldown was already raised from 8 to 12 (bad change imo)

that voting system msws suggested already here

The map cool down was already raised. In fact, we raised it to slightly higher than the current value and people were complaining, in fact a lot of people, so we tuned it down to what it is now.

Well then would it be possible to remove maps from showing in vote unless they are nominated? I have a bind that reminds players to nominate random or original maps that SHOULD be played more often. I understand the familiar map argument, but there is so little maps on the server that knowing them decent enough would take less than 2 weeks. I've seen maps that probably weren't played ever in the nomination list. If they were, it was probably me at 6am when I wanted to check out other maps.

I would rather play VIP every map than play carceris once.

The maps played the most are some of the better maps. Like when ever I hop on on a late night I'll nominate maps I rarely see picked (but most of the time the maps are just bad or bland or confusing) The reason why people like to play clouds or quake or minecraft is because everyone knows them and likes to play on them. (yeah ik that's the most basic argument, but it's true) When I get on and I see some random map i'll just rtv after one round of playing, If the main big maps were swapped out weekly in a rotation I feel that a ton more rtvs would happen a lot more frequently. I'm a bigger fan of letting (new) maps into the pool that took time and effort (scp) It was brought in not too long ago and a lot of people like to play it more than the old forgotten jb maps. So the current system for maps isn't all that bad imo.
