DeadCity will it ever end?

[-SuPreMe-]

ok so i go to play on MHM3 every now and then and i figure ill try out some of the nice new maps, after all we all love nice new maps right?

but u see theres a slight problem everytime and i mean literally everytime just about, im greeted with some form of dead city whether its deadcity, deadcity2, remix or whatever they're called, i mean its not exactly a terrible map its not exactly a great map either but after the 1billion'th time playing it, its gets boring.

i dont understand why everyone seems to like it so much i find it ugly to look at and dull to play through. I mean its monsterhunt not zombie hunt for those who are obsessed with killing zombies please go purchase Left 4 Dead or somthing.

Anyone else feel the same or is it just me?

ok im done rant over.

[-HellFire-]

You right!
Everytime if I want to join the server I see as ''Map Name'' MH-DEADCITY2/REMIX.
I have the same feeling, it is really annoying everyone vote for that map again & again..
For example a player with the name ''Tag3 (or) Tag6'', they always play that map!

Yeah I really don't get it either. Just for the record Supreme, I made REMIX and it can be ended, and also there is a defined number of zombies and no more. I did that after feeling exactly as you did about the original versions. It's a bland, boring map with so much empty space, you'd think it would be passed over but it's not.

[*POTS*]

I'm sick and tired of noobs always voting for deadcity. Personally I would get rid of all DC maps except for the remixed version which is quite good and actually doable. It's time for a poll I guess.

I mean its monsterhunt not zombie hunt for those who are obsessed with killing zombies please go purchase Left 4 Dead or somthing.

[*POTS*]

It's time for a choice: do you want the DeadCity maps to stay or to be removed from the server?

[-HellFire-]

I voted for ''keep the remixed'' because I agree with POTS:

except for the remixed version which is quite good and actually doable.

[-SuPreMe-]

i voted to keep remix but it better not be on the server everytime i join lol because i wont be responsible for my force map changing actions

[gopostal]

The mapvote is set up to allow all maps to be voted every time. Perhaps a change is in order? Maybe 5 or 6 maps before one can be revoted?

[*POTS*]

Does a mapvote change affect also DM and JB? Because we usually enjoy playing a DM or JB map two times in a row.

[gopostal]

IIRC you can set it per column. I'll check and see.

For example a player with the name ''Tag3 (or) Tag6'', they always play that map!

Ahhh the Tacs, TAC3 and Tac6 a brothers, they play together, leave together, vote together, and fight together, I believe they have a shared mind.And yes they do like DeadCity.

Anyway, back to the poll, where's the option for "only get rid of +"?

DeadCity2 is a good map if people have imagination, but you need to play it as hobby instead of as stress relief from a busy day, besides, my RPG system is utterly pulverised by the remix.
Speaking of the remix, it's nice to have a more aggressive version of DC to play for people like Supreme who can't understand the basic version, or people who just want a change.
I myself have always been looking for a building-to-building city map and that's the only one around.

Ending note: I love the system of, OMG everyone keeps voting for that map, should we get rid of it? popularity extermination

[-SuPreMe-]

Nothing to do with not understanding the map, wat is there to not understand? its a bland boring ugly map that everyones seen played and SHOULD of got bored of.
If people can still play that map after all this time then im afraid they must be very small minded and easily amused

I'm lazy, use the "other" option.
Oh well at least we all agree that DeadCity2+ should be nuked.

[gopostal]

Here's an option you might not have thought of. At one time I entertained the idea of totally recoding the DC-Pawns package (this is the zombie's U file they are created from). If you want, I could fix the errors in the code that let them respawn forever, update the maps to reflect the new package, and upload the mess to the server as a {fix}. I'm sure Blizz is cool with it if I fixed it. The maps would still suck but at least they would end.

Scotty, yours it's not a bad idea after all.
