Re: SiMPLE | New Maps No key [FRA] // new idea //

change this server to "SiMPLE | Origin and CD No key[FRA]"
This makes the servers more popular

Or add this server

Why would you delete rheinmetall panzer? I haven't played yet Ural Foothills.

I think it's a good idea. Eventually, new players will find out about new maps and be able to join.

What maps? And what other maps would you pick to replace them?

Re: SiMPLE | New Maps No key [FRA] // new idea //

rheinmetal map is confusing, and 10 people(of 19) left from this map, ural foothills is bad cause axis have 2 flags closer, and allies only 1, and as axis, when u take off, you are imediately target of enemy flaks and planes(if allies control island flag)

When did they leave, right at the start or later?

ural foothills is bad cause axis have 2 flags closer, and allies only 1

Yeah, axis base is closer to flags a bit, but I think it doesn't give a big advantage.

and as axis, when u take off, you are imediately target of enemy flaks and planes(if allies control island flag)

You can turn left right after takeoff to be completely protected by big snowy mountain

I would take Faid Pass out but the rest keep. I find Remagen one of the best maps ever.

I know, I used to have alot of fun with that map but, like SaintSauveur, its a map that need alot of players on to be enjoyed.

Btw Saintsauveur is the best map in the bf42 series to do Jeep Races

I'm just happy to see that this game lives beyond predictions. New maps show that BF1942 heart is still ticking

Re: SiMPLE | New Maps No key [FRA] // new idea //

Remagen is a brilliantly crafted map. A true masterpiece that would make DICE mappers jealous.

Same goes for Operation Forager. A very well balanced map, great for some infantry scrims.

Re: SiMPLE | New Maps No key [FRA] // new idea //

Battle for Guam: Good map, but looks too much like Guadalcanal
Battle for Korsun SE: Impressive map, definetly like the winter textures and skins for soldiers
Corsica: Very impressive map, the ground textures alone on this map makes me want to play it
Dukla Pass: Shit map
Faid Pass: Interesting map set in the African theatres, nice new vehicle textures
Giza: Interesting map for the pyramids, the V1 Missile or w/e it's called, game play sucks though
Kasserine: Stupid map, looks too much like Gazala with an insane number of Defguns, ground texturing is dull
Liberation of Nuenen: Interesting map, looks very much like Liberation of Caen texture wise
Murmansk: Nicely crafted map, object placement and texturing are on point
North Sea Docks: Shit map, object placement is noobish and as for game play it looks very unbalanced
Operation Forager: A very nice addition for infantry/light armor game play, texturing is nice, object placement is nice and there's even some ambient sounds
Operation Luttich: Very nice map this one, texturing is superb and the rest of the map speaks for itself in term of object placement and game play
Reichsbahn: Cool map, very neat ground texturing, as for object placement it seems a bit narrow at some control points, but other than that a great map for tanking
Remagen: The custom bridge is very nice, other than that the map is only too familiar to Market Garden, and that's a turn off for me
Russlandsturm: Shit map, shitty texturing, shitty object placement, vehicles from Secret Weapons only increase the file size, wouldn't recommend downloading this map
The Great Pursuit: A cool map to play, everything seems on point
Tigerpass: Shit map, texturing sucks, object placement is ridiculous and that kills the game play. Oh and forget downloading a map which is more than 100 MB in size
UN Ihantala: Shitty map, texturing blows, flags are misplaced, vehicles are unbalanced, fuck this map
Warschau: Haven't played the map but looked at a game play video of the map on YouTube, almost barfed

Re: SiMPLE | New Maps No key [FRA] // new idea //

Thank you for your review. If you believe some other maps would be a great addition, please recommend them. There are lots of good custom maps for BF1942, it's a pity most are not known.

Re: SiMPLE | New Maps No key [FRA] // new idea //

I have made my own custom map pack with 5 maps which I think are the best, and the file size is 113 MB when all the maps are zipped. I might expand it to 200 MB to give it a bit more variety without losing quality too.

My 5 maps:

- Corsica (Southern Europe)
- Battle for Korsun SE (Russia)
- Operation Luttich (Central Europe)
- Operation Forager (Pacific)
- Faid Pass (Africa)

Good idea. Personally, I wouldn't put so many maps into the New Maps server like now, just 5-7 max.

Played most of the maps you noted, I have more or less the same opinion. Certainly about 'north sea docks' and 'UN inhantala'. Warschau is shitty indeed.
