Throw away the CSS ported maps!

[Nunya]

For the life of me I can't understand why anyone would want a map from CSS in INS. If ppl love CSS maps so much there are 100x more CS servers than INS...go there. Disregarding the fact they aren't even ported properly with any balance in mind, I have yet to hear anyone that has played INS for any length of time even say they enjoy them.

Just know, anytime I see a CSS port come up I leave and I don't join the Dust server.

While I'm not too keen on some of the other custom maps, at least they are different and those map designers are at least trying to keep to the INS spirit.

We're not going to change the Dust2 server. This server is very popular amongst INS players. If any person does not like this server, we still have our RTV server running the original INS maps. Please help populate that server.

I enjoy the map as it brings a different style of game play.

In addition to what Hammer said, Nunya...I have seen you in the INS Dust2 server for hours on end. If you dont like it....why do you play it so much? the Dust2 server was put up to basically change the gameplay a bit of INS. It still has the INS flavor, but in a different setting. The Dust2 server has become a mainstay of our division, and will remain as such until the INS community shows us through server population that it isnt a popular map any more.

In closing, if you dont like the map we have another server that runs INS stock maps, and even a few customs for the INS vanilla crowd. Feel free to frequent that server if you do not wish to play Dust2.

Well,to be exact,the de_dust 2 server seems to be the one which is real famous along pubs and eGO and i think we should keep it,and in regards to "If ppl love CSS maps so much there are 100x more CS servers than INS...go there",well,INS is alot different from CS:S,we have ironsight,they don't,we serve cookie,they don't,and to sum it all up,if you go to the Insurgency News Area,didn't you see people complaining when the changes was made for Dust2 to stop respawn,so i think lots of us do enjoy dust2,just that we don't say it.

All though all of the ported maps are horribly imbalanced, they are still pleasurable to play.

 

[Kill Me]

No. I agree with Hammer & Herm.

It is very frustrating trying to control a single or group of persons disrupting game play. We all want to have fun and enjoy the game. And it only takes one person to throw you off and make being on the server a drag. Try not to let the Dust map and other CS maps and the few bad apples ruin a server for you. Everyone new to the map has to learn the ins and outs and the do's and dont's. Just like taking the good with the bad.

In addition to what Hammer said, Nunya...I have seen you in the INS Dust2 server for hours on end.

I've been in there once and only once to remind myself why I no longer play CS, haven't been there since.

Unfortunately I believe that these CS ports does absolutely nothing to bring about INS for what it should be....while it may assist in popping the server for sake of bringing in the CS crowd, it does nothing to enhance what INS is supposed to be about. fair enough.

I just played office today on the RTV server and NOT ONE eGO expressed interest in it and, as a matter of fact, a few wondered why it was even on the server. If you want a separate server for CSS maps,knock yourself out, but if these ports keep making it into rotations...well.....

my 2 cents.......i thought i'd like CS_Office in INS, because I loved it in CS, about 8 yrs ago, but nope. Balance all wrong when you respawn and try to take areas, compared to rescuing hostages.

Same for Dust. If respawn is turned off for dust, then good. That should help.

I'm not saying dump the CS maps if they're popular, but do consider keeping the CS maps together and out of FF ON or our other servers.

Now you see I love the Dust2 map wish they had a dust one actually, but the office map is a little much, don't really like the layout of it, a good map for deathmatch or for having fun on, but trying to cap the points is like trying to pull teeth. It just needs to have the points laid out better and maybe it'd be a better map for capping points.

The one map called "Trenches" i think was a pretty awesome map a little more work on it and it would rock hard.

As Hammer and I have both expressed, there will be no changes to the Dust2 server and it will not be going anywhere.

Office is in rotation solely because sometimes, the server is at single digits population wise, and we like to give the deathmatch atmosphere to those who seed the servers.

In closing, and this has already been said, if you dont like Dust2 we have a whole other server you can play on that you can vote for the maps you would like to play. If you dont want to play Office it is as simple as voting against it. Im sorry that we cant make everyone happy. As the server settings and map rotations go, we are trying to make the collective group happy.

Dust2 is very popular, and is here as long as it is popular. If you dont like it, keep the Rotation server full and show us that you support that server. Thread Closed.

P.S. For future reference, if you have a problem that you would like expressed about server settings, or map rotations its better to send a PM to an advisor or DL rather than forcing your opinions on everyone. While some people may agree with your opinions, many in the past have expressed to leadership that the rotation and Dust2 server are excelling in keeping everyone happy and interested. Opinions are a dime a dozen, and if everyone made a thread about their dislikes...it would be a true downer.
