quick question

[!EpIc fAiL!]

idk if this is suppose to be this way but, what has happened to all the maps on the rotation server?

 

[Igoforunc09]

what do you mean?

 

[!EpIc fAiL!]

i got on today and there where only 3 maps...baghdad, alamden and burhiz. i really wanted to play on ramadi and samawah. or the really big dessert custom map.

 

[SCSwat]

Those are the new standard rotation maps with the remainder set up to be available through the RTV system. This is as intended by division leadership.

 

[USCG Hammer]

The RTV server core maps are as follows: Almaden, Sinjar, Buhriz and Baghdad.

The maps you can pick from when you RTV are: Abdalah, Haditha, Hillah, Karkar, Ramadi and Samawah_Day.

The other custom maps were disabled due to conflicts with the server and because some maps were emptying the server. Have no fear, on occasion a member of leadership can activate one of the maps not on the list for all to play.

Why must it be only through RTV? Can we not have the other maps added in through the nominate? Like those four maps will be the only maps that show up unless you nominate or RTV. Is that possible? Just curious, really. I had some people asking me earlier why they couldn't nominate other maps.

 

[USCG Hammer]

Almaden, Sinjar, Buhriz and Baghdad will be added to the nominate list. The reason the other maps were removed is because they constantly empty the server. Were trying to eliminate those maps that kill the server and leave the maps that will keep the server full

 

[a pet rock]

Sorry, Hammer. My post was too vague and unclear and I even said something I wasn't intending somehow. When I meant other maps, I meant the maps that can be voted on through a successful RTV. I understand that a lot of maps empty the server so they're gone. But if the maps can still be voted on, why can't maps like haditha be nominated?

Also, the four that are standard rotation are already in the nominate list.

 

[Igoforunc09]

haditha fills servers. or at least it does when im on

 

[!EpIc fAiL!]

but when i was on the server was always half or more than halfway full, really depends on the time of day, etc... i ejoyed playing on samawah and ramadi, most people wont RTV to them cause they arent on the vote list. can you atleast add back the offical maps, haditha, ramdi, samawah, karkar etc. OH good IDEA! can you put the rotation server back like it was, and make bring back the 24/7 sinjar server but make it a "popular map rotation"? that would be awesome! having all the maps added back is what kept me playing, playing the same 3 or 4 maps is going to get old. in know that ramdi and samawah had a good amount of players on them. and if the people didnt want to play on then they rtv the map, but that barely happend when i was on. i remeber before the first server changed that eGO servers were full.... why cant we go back to that?

we have had this idea plenty of times before. they have it like it is at the moment so we can focus on getting these servers we have populated before we add another server. they have said they are not going to change it to a 24/7 sinjar, personally i would hate that also. we need to get the servers we have constantely filled before we add or change any of the current ones

 

[!EpIc fAiL!]

i know but, the other maps are usually full when i was on, just depends on the time of day. i wonder if slowly adding back each map will work? ya i would hate having a 24/7 sinjar, i hate that map now. any hope of seeing the other maps? atleast samwah and haditha?

It's also an administrating issue. 2 servers are a lot easier to cover throughout the day than 3. If we can keep these servers full and clean, I cannot see any reason for our division leaders to take a second look at our requests, but until then this is how it will be.

Invite mature friends into the servers, and this will happen.

 

[USCG Hammer]

I hear all of you. I understand that some of the maps are personal favorites and others are not. What I did was choose the most popular maps that will help us keep the server full. Not just with eGO members but with pubs as well. Give us some time and help keep these 2 servers full.

We have plans to reconnect the 3rd server in time, but first we have to ensure the 2 servers we have stay full. Remember, an empty server means were wasting eGO money.

when we put the 3rd server in will it be 24/7 sinjar or rotation?

That has not been determined as of right now. We need to put all our focus on the 2 servers we have right now before we can think of getting a third one. If we can get the 2 servers that we have now to where they take care of themselves, without having to be revived and refilled each day, then we will be in talks of a 3rd server.

It will not be a 24/7 server.
