    Course maps are cancer

    This poll is as good as asking a person if they like some ice cream or if they are someone who likes to get ass-fucked several times a day instead.



    I personally always enjoyed multigames ( nice and relaxing ). The current system is ok, it will keep everyone at least semi-happy.

    I personally favor MG over course maps. I have seen times where we do get the server populated with actual multigames maps and when the server switches to a course map, some people start leaving and others will beg for an rtv. I don't mind course maps but if it becomes more course orientated then I'd just end up sticking to PB and ZE over the MG server. I think it's that a lot of people prefer to do team deathmatch style modes over playing a course map where the only purpose is to pass the obstacles only to make it to the end.

    What I'm saying is that I think the purpose of multigames is that you're being able to play maps where you have various game modes to go against opponents and enjoy killing each other rather than doing a map where you just play solo and run around trying to survive traps. Also, I never really considered course to be the actual definition of multigames - it's always seen as it's own game mode imo.. kinda like how kz is

    While I personally join MG to play courses now days I don't think that changing it to be course orientated or multigames orientated is a good idea. A balance of the two is probably the best way to go about it because i know i'm not the only one who prefers to play courses.

    Also all arguments that say courses kill the server are invalid because only the bad course maps or bad multigames map end up killing the server, even if there is a drop off on certain course maps, course players(like myself) join the server and help repopulate it.

    I would also like there to be an even mix of maps but the problem is that there isn't enough people that enjoy playing both. The way the MG server is atm just isn't working, if it was then we wouldn't be having this discussion.

    Having all course maps would require having an advanced ranking system and timer, can't see it working out at all otherwise.

    Going with all multigame and combat maps would probably be our best bet since while the population is split, more people do seem to favor the multigame and combat maps (aaand CSGO was made primarily for combat playing), just my opinion though.

    And as Octa said, a lot should be determined once the store plugin gets thrown on.

    Like it was back in css: we could first choose if classic ol' ze, modern/bossfight, and then choose the map from the category.
    Would be great to have it here aswell.

    Is there any update on this?

    Because we had a full server tonight for a little bit, with mostly new players as well. We were playing a few multigame maps and you could tell everyone was really enjoying themselves, then a course map gets voted for (the map was bankrobbery, and I guess they voted for it because of the misleading name) and most people leave, so it goes from a full server (26 players) to 10 players in less than 2 minutes, with a lot of people saying before they left that they didn't like course maps. Then even when we rtv'd it the server population never recovered.
