Warpathians - Fight or Die

I just wanted to take a minute and say "Thanks" to GGVW for putting SD back on Warpath. I completely understand why it was removed (some players had contacted Garden and stated that SD caused players to leave the server). I believe the poll spoke for itself. All Warpathians will be delighted.

I appreciate what all the leadership team of eGO does for all of us. It's like being a parent to 1000 kids or being the OctoMom...seriously, it's hard to please everyone but I sure do see an effort to support what most of us want balanced with what they think is the right thing to do. Thanks again.

What he said. Honest to god, we all appreciate it. Thanks o'plenty.
 
Thanks for the SD back on, it feels great. I actually have only been playing warpath again and everyone has loved it.
 
YES SD! OMFG YES YES YES YES! NOW THERE IS A NEW REASON TO GO 5 ENGIES!

Now!
KNOW MY SAW!
 
I've been pubbing on arena servers recently, making some new additions to my friends list. Last night, at least 2 of those new additions joined Warpath just because I was in there -- yes, I'm just that loveable :P

And yes, SD is a much welcomed return. From talking to folks here and there, the frustration surrounding SD on Warpath is that it often results in Stalemate. If we could implement some other variations, like random class & melee only, it would make SD go a lot quicker with much fewer stalemates.

Couldn't hurt ...
 
THat's true.... Most every time Sudden Death ends in a Stalemate... It also isn't very long... but I suppose if the Stalemate continues during SD, people leave, has to be a happy medium... Melee only would cause people to not sit back and wait...
 
Guys, Warpath has been in constant decline for the past week. It was nice to see the initial turnaround but we still need people to play there.

My question still is this however. You said we needed to show improvement in the ranks, well what is the target ranking we're looking for? It has improved since the announcement was made. Do we have something to shoot for or should I just realize that this map is on its way out the door....
 
We were looking to see it pass some of our other servers, but as of this morning it is last in the rankings. Since the Blackmesa Final map change, Blackmesa has jumped almost 40 ranks and passed Warpath.

Being last in our TF2 Server rankings, as well as being passed by Blackmesa within a week of BMFinal, does not help.
 
Look at it this way, BMFinal is a new map, of course people are going to play, its new. Kinda like a new restaurant that comes into town, after the newness wears off people will go back to their old servers.

Not really a new map. BMFinal is just all the changes made to V3 that everyone wanted (back then Mesa had a HUGE following) . V7 caused a lot of people to stop playing at the Mesa and now that it is back to it's trued and tried self they are all returning. :)
 
Warpath just needs help getting started.... once the map gets full it normally stays that way til around 12. Egypt is slipping really fast and Blackmesa is just ahead of us so with just a little work we can get this map back in the top 100
 
it's all i'm playing. my favorite map by far, although admittedly at least partially because i know so many players from playing it so frequently. it's a great map, though. fun times. i'm going to play it now, i think.
 
Well I have a feeling Warpath will be axed if it cannot surpass BM before the sniper update. I assume the lowest ranking server is going to be axed for a new map (unless it is BM). Guys we gotta get it into gear.
 
Steamrolls kill warpath. We had two steamrolls in a row last night and the server went from full to empty. I know its hard to prevent them from happening, but when they happen that late the server will not refill until the next afternoon.
 
Spamfest stalemates ruin warpath. 24 slot warpath servers can be enjoyable, teams move around a lot more than 32 player servers.

I play on warpath a little, and I generally join when the player count is somewhere in the 10-20s because the gameplay is alot faster and teams swap possession of the control points more often.

In all honesty, I look forward to warpath being removed in favor of one of the new sniper update maps.
