Title: Other payload maps?
Post by: ApatheticMango on December 28, 2012, 12:01:16 AM: Something I've been hearing from regulars to the HG servers is that they wish there was more variety in the payload maps. Even though it's a vote, the selection gets pretty repetitive after a while. (Badwater, Gold Rush, and Hoodoo/Thunder Mountain/Frontier every once in a blue moon. Sometimes it's even either Gold Rush or extend the current map). Any possibility of adding new maps to play in?

It's a really clean and well done map. It's a good mix between tight alleys like goldrush and open space for death matching like badwater. Plenty of flanking positions, and the map is very aesthetically pleasing. Check out this short clip of the map:

I was playing on the No heroes server yesterday, and I really liked the map rotation. We should add 5 new maps and not just one or two. It will freshen up the gameplay a bit, since there has been no updates in awhile tf2 is getting kinda stale.

also i think i know how to keep the server in the quickplay when it's empty. if there's a way to just run stock maps when the server has say under 24 players, and add the other unofficial maps when it's 24+

I really loved the other maps.

Post by: Plasma on May 01, 2013, 11:06:49 PM: We would like to try a couple of new custom Payload maps next week or so.
Please check Chainspell's awesome custom PL maps selection thread and share your thoughts. Especially if you've played some of these maps on other servers before. Ideally, we would like to add 1-3 custom maps to the rotation, and you guys will still need to vote for them.
