Warpathians - Fight or Die

[A Blind Man Schmidt]

Yes, I do believe that it is in Warpaths best interest to reinstate sudden death. The map time should be extended, sudden death time decreased :30 to 1:00, and made melee only.

wouldn't that in fact be increased.....

EDIT: disregard that........scratch that reread and it makes sense

Actually, the way it is isn't exactly proper. It should read "by :30 to 1:00" but oh well lol.

A short sudden death melee would be great, the SD does need to be less than 2 min 1 second

Melee Sudden Death would be very entertaining

It's at position 123 now. Went up 31 positions from when this started and is 38 positions ahead of Blackmesa at this point.

With no sudden death and shorter round times, the Warpath server is not holding players like it is capable of. The settings have been "worst case" right now. If an honest effort is to be made to build the ranking of this server, we need sudden death in some form. Melee, regular, time intervals can all be worked out later. Please, add sudden death back as soon as possible. Thank you.

I agree 100%.

Spoolin is right. I just checked GameTracker and Warpath has a much better rank than Blackmesa (Valvemaps #13 woot!). We shouldn't worry about keeping it active, but rather go to Valvemaps and make it #1. It's kind of a shame that SourceOp has the top 4 positions, though. I definitely prefer our servers (no bias, really), and the community is much more fun to play with.

What happened to sudden death in all of our servers? I enjoyed it, and there is an added note of finality with it.

Bring back SD and keep warpath!

My love for TF2 is because of Warpath. I haven't found any better map.

I'm sure the regulars wouldn't mind putting up some more money to keep the map live.

Also, bring back SD... as everyone knows Warpath often ends in stalemate, thus when there is no SD, no one wins....we all loose... that's not fun. Seems like all of the regulars agree that a melee sudden death would be fun.

Suggestions:
1. Mars suggestion: Rotate map during non-peak hours.
2. Fix lag problem..I've just grown accustomed to it and haven't complained.
3. What about a "banner" every once in a while that reminds newbies to add this map to their favorites.
4. What about a new feature of some sort that does something "cool" when neither team has capped a point in 10 minutes or so.... sometimes it can get a little boring when both teams are evenly matched and no progress is being made. What if a big pink elephant with a krit tusk came running in and everyone had to join in to kill it...lol... I'm just thinking off the top of my head...it will be an "ice breaker" of some sort and get the game rolling...but i guess that would be more of a tf2 patch then a map patch ;p

Lag is a big issue with the server.

IMO when we had sudden death (melee only, all classes) the pubs (and members) seemed really happy. I don't think making SD one class only is a good idea. The melee SD forces players to get involved rather than to build a SG and hang out for 3mins.

 

[AzzNik]

I forgot about the lag too. It can be a big issue at times.

 

[A Blind Man Schmidt]

WARPATHIANS.....FIGHT AND fIGHT....THERE IS NO DIE OPTION!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Blitzz]

Ditto what dosblitz said earlier.

I only play Warpath and I really enjoy playing with all the regulars on this server.

It seems to be a shame that even though during peak times of 5:00pm - 1:00am where you have to wait 10 minutes to get into the game, it still is not enough. If it were more popular than it is now, it may take 20-30 minutes... anyway, off to play some WARPATH!

 

[Blitzz]

So as I wait to get into Warpath (since it is full right now), I ponder.

I think the best solution would be to do the map rotations for off peak hours - that seems like it would satisfy everyone and boost the server stats as well.

I don't think anyone would mind throwing a random map in there every once in a while.

Spy sappin' mah warpath!

 

[L westminster purcell]

apparently there are other supporters of the melee sudden death! bringing this to the server would keep it more full, longer, in my opinion. drawn out sudden death matches with camped out players mean a bunch of players just drop out rather than wait and watch a boring stalemate. at the very least, even if you die immediately in sudden death, if it's a melee match, it's amusing to watch watching crowds of players melee makes me laugh, and i think it keeps the end of the round more interesting, as well as more fun. who's the big winner? sudden death melee is the big winner.

All class (w/e person used last) is the best. You always have 20 sec to change class if you don't like the current one you're using for melee

 

[Fiddler]

I am for putting sudden death back in. Warpath is one of the main reasons I play this game. So pls bring back sudden death (melee or otherwise) and hopefully the server population will improve.

I love Warpath

I love Warpath. It seems to be doing farely well. But for those who are concerned there is lag on the server today.
