Map Removal
Full map name
ze_spaceflight_v2 Type of map
Zombie Escape Why should we remove it
Many people love and enjoy this map and other do not. I only have two main issues with this map:
1. Teammates closing door on each other.
2. The dreaded section where it crashed CSS.
Let me start with issue #1. First off, there is pretty much none or very little teamwork oriented in this map; I know I used the word teamwork, something that is rarely seen but it is still current. Players will just close the door on each other even before the zombie spawns and there is really know way of preventing this, even with the threat of punishment it still occurs. In my opinion the map is unbalanced because whenever I do see this map played on the escape server, the zombies are never able to win unless the humans are generally stupid enough to lose with a occasional failnade.
Now, on to issue #2. The dreaded area of the map which causes players' CSS to freeze up causing them to quit. Although it does not happen to the majority of us, sometimes we have to think of the minority. Every round 2-5+ people timeout. Just to be clear, the section of this map I am discussing is the end just before you reach the rocket.
I don't despise this map, I would like to see the creator work out these few issues to make the map more enjoyable and please fix the issue where it causes CSS to freeze up.
