Name of Map: zm_trap_escape
Servers: ZombieMod Escape

Reasons:Potentially the worst map on the server currently. It's nothing but a killzone and a deathrun map. Very rarely the humans win, if you as me this map belongs on the DeathRun server. Now people will probably just tell me: You just don't like it because your a noob at it.
No im not a noob at it I know how to beat it. But this is not a true Escape map all you do is run through a maze and die. I know that there has been many requests for the map to be removed and hopefully this time it will be removed. So lets take a look:
1.you start by goign through the many teleports (about only 2 are good) and hope you don't get stuck.
2.You run thorugh the maze which has many annoying traps where people die all the time
3. You run down the hall and hopefully don't get hit by the boulder!
4. Go though underwater maze thing (hopeuflly you have 100% health otherwise you die)
5. Go through another maze where theres only 1 way you can go otherwise you die
6. Go through the ancient traps where everything is dumb and you just die
7. Beat the map congrats you know how to beat the worst map on the server
8. In the end you pretty much you just have 1 person who wins while the rest die.

Extra Comments: If someone was willing to edit the map to make it work on the deathrun server well then maybe it would work good there, but on ZE JUST NO! The map is very laggy and has many leaks (Part of map exposed to void).

This is about the only map on the server where the humans don't even care about the zombies. How could you when you're concentrating on not going the wrong way and dying? There's no place to defend up until you get to the aztec place, and by then there's usually a clear cut winner anyway(or whoever's grossly out in front, humans or zombies, die to a trap).

That and no obvious teamwork involved

I agree with Bill. This map sucks and it's very unbalanced. What's even worse is that it's confusing for new players and could discourage them from playing our servers. What's even MOREworse than that is that people always get stuck going through the TELEPORTERS!!!

REMOVE IT!

i think it needs to be remade with more paths to go thru the maze, and then one very long walkway to the end for those who cant go thru maze

Ok I do not see a problem taking this off. I know people in the past has also asked to have it removed.

Also I have been in the server when this map is on, and notice that the zombies do not even try to get the humans. They are just trying to make it to the end.

I dunno, is mumbo jumbo still on there? Personally I love the map. So much that I drew up the maze and one path through (to scale).

It's a shame it's been removed. It was a polarizing map, but I know a lot of people really did like to play it.

You have no idea what your talking about! It was one of THE worst maps on the server!

We call that an opinion. Everyone has one. You didn't like it, a lot of people didn't like it. However, a lot of people did like it. Just because you didn't like it doesn't mean no one else did.

Astrum was one of those who converted me to a believer. Before I would just sit in spec and whine while nominating maps to be played next. It was a great map once you got the hang of it.

But yeah , the map really is an aberration from the normal "run from zombie" maps , here it doesn't matter whether you were zombie or human , it only mattered whether you could escape the 2 mazes or not. And although I have escaped both mazes before , I have never made it to the end of the map where the nuke lies.

RIP Trap Escape. You provided good entertainment for those of us who weren't swept up in the "RTV THIS MAP NOW" frenzy.

It's been removed before, and readded. Let's see if it makes another come back.

I really don't like this map. I would either rtv or leave the server when I was a reg. Glad its getting removed.

NOOOOOOOOOO

Why would this map be readded if it was already removed venomous? Due to the reasons I stated Suricruise removed it. If people like the map that much they can go to CreateServer > Map_name and play it all they want. It's not an escape map people do not care if they become zombie.

You are in no position to make demands.

I did remove the map for the reason that this map is never played like it should be for the server that it is on. The zombies dont try to get the humans. Every one is just trying to make it to the end.

I would say if you can get more yes's then no's for the map then add it back.

How about a compromise, add trap escape to one escape server.

It'll just get rtv'ed to hell anyway. A person dies in a trap once and it's rtv, I swear people have attention spans of mayonnaise.

I don't see a problem with taking it off both US Escapes and putting it on Deathrun, or at least taking it off one of the Escapes. I like the map, but these guys are right about it not really being an escape map. It doesn't fit on the servers it is on now.

Heres what I think should happen: The map should be taken off the Escape servers because clearly people do not care weather they're zombie or not (actually they would prefer to be zombie so they could survive the traps)
Add the map to the DeathRun servers. It is a compromise for all of us!

The people who don't like the map won't have to waste their time playing it on ZombieEscape

The people who like the map can still play it on the DeathRun servers!

Yea good luck with that, what happens when you get to the end and no one has guns...

And if you give them guns they will all just kill eachother.

As far as I am concerned this map is gone for good.
