Current XI< MW2 Freezetag Map Rotation Is... Well...

[BEyondDaGamer]

I'm not an admin (obviously) but I had to point out that I don't see as much people on >XI< MW2 Freezetag 146b9. I speculate because of the current map rotation consisting primarily of the original Modern Warfare maps everyone has played on since before my great grandfather was a little white soldier in his father's sack platoon. Perhaps having more of the custom maps will entice more to join?

Anyone else agree? Have the admin gods forsaken us? 

[Sharpe]

I came up with the idea after discussing it with people on teamspeak, and for the most part have heard good things. This game has been out for 10 years and its actually rare we get to play all of these maps now.

The server was full last night when I was on at this time and was full on Sunday. Seeing as the rotation only went up a few days ago..."I don't see as much people on >XI< MW2 Freezetag 146b9" is laughable.

If you look here :

 

https://www.gametracker.com/server_info/162.248.95.178:28960/

 

You will actually see that the server is listed as the 25th most popular, and with a range of 23-34 for the month. 

 

Not everyone is going to like the same rotations, and they are changed once a week, you'll just have to wait until then! Also remember that this is holiday week, so people will probably be playing at different times than they normally would.

I have to agree with that.  It is rare that we play the stock maps anymore.  It's fun to switch it up.  The rotations change weekly so if you aren't liking a rotation it won't be long before  a new one is put in.

I'm sorry but I really enjoyed this rotation. I haven't played those maps in a long time an it was fun. 

[Giggles]

I've enjoyed this one cuz they are old maps we don't get to play much anymore

As an admin and a daily player, I can say that the MW2 server has not been any less populated than normal.  In fact, I think it's been busier throughout the day and night more so than usual.  This could also be due to the holiday week, but I don't think the current map rotation is slowing it down in any way, regardless.  Most comments I've heard and seen are positive, and people are enjoying the stock maps that haven't been played in a long time.  The server is generally slower around dinner time EST, so if you've joined during that time, you may have experienced lower numbers of players.....but it picks right back up until the wee hours of the morning EST.  As for not liking maps, I'll say what I say when players complain in the server about hating/not liking a particular map or rotation.  The maps are changed weekly, not everyone will love every map, but you don't have to play the map if you don't like it.

Love the new rotation, was giving me gamers wood last night, best rotation in a  while!

[FUNky]

I agree with all of my XI family above. I was excited when Sharpe started talking about this rotation and happy when Dadda put it in. The server has been busy every day when the Europeans dominate it. Maybe a little slower in early evening for US players due to the holiday week but it picks up for “After Hours”. 

[dadda2]

if you don't like the rotation and need a change by all means put a list of maps together approximately 20 maps 

send them to me on a pm i will check see if we have them and i will make up a rotation and put it in the server

simple as that

we have over 20 plus rotations which i rotate once a week the current one hasn't been played before it was submitted as above by one of our members who talked to others and came up with this one

you can check what maps we have by going onto our forums and checking the weekly map rotation post

we do spend a lot of time and effort putting these together its not something we just throw in and be done with it

 

as far as the server population is let me know when you get redirected then tell me its not full

 

will await your map rotation  with anticipation

@dadda2 I think we should keep this rotation a second week.  Everyone is enjoying it.

[Sven35i]

The only Thing we coud change is take out the normal Blacklot an push in Blacklot 2

'Gamers wood' my ass! (I know this sentence is dangerous around here) You had to call in sick from work to lower that tent in ya pants! 

As for the rotation: Absolutely love it. Except for killhouse....that map forces you to move which just isn't my thing.

Just a wee update :

 

https://www.gametracker.com/server_info/162.248.95.178:28960/

 

Server at its highest rank for the month, it seems the masses have spoken Gamer!

[Sammy]

Keeping in mind that there are still servers that play 'only' stock maps this rotation is just a nice diversion from all the custom ones.

[dadda2]

stock map rotations are as sammy say different because they are not played but

i will keep it in for another week unless i asked otherwise

No doubt, and this would get old quickly too. As part of the general stock of rotations though, throwing it in from time to time sounds fun!

I agree I do like stock maps but I think 2 weeks in a row may get a bit old but should still have some thrown in from time to time.

 

 

[dadda2]

i cannot see you playing this rotation again for at least 6 months

To many old maps together, it needs to be broken up. playing the same maps for 2 weeks in row?

I couldn't wait for the weekends for map rotation.
