Remove Rush Maps?

Guys,

Most of the issues that have presented itself on our server are when we run rush maps.

What are your thoughts on removing them altogether?

Either that or remove specific maps that are causing problems.

If we remove them altogether, I guess we could reinstate your idea of rush weekends every now and then?

Didn't like Rush at all to start with but since we have lowered the numbers i have to say that on the whole i've enjoyed playing them.

However, they do seem to cause friction but that should be down to us to smooth out. Some of the maps do seem very very numbers sensitive where the defenders have a huge advantage when the sides are small, lambs to the slaughter comes to mind. But aside from that i think they're ok, i definitely don't think we should lose them all

Rush is kinda number sensitive as you say. Some maps are absolutely horrible for attackers with small numbers on the server. I think rush would work better if we had a consistent player mass on our server. Is there any way to exclude the Rush maps if there are less then, say 10 players?

I've come to like rush as well, but my observations is that a lot of the conflicts and drama come from uneven teams and few players on. Currently we need 5 players to start, which is stupid! It should either be 4 or 6.

For me it doesnt have the same feeling as it did in bc2 to many pubbies fannying about for my liking i wouldnt mind seeing them gone, but then again i wouldnt mind playing them on fridays and see how we do when its dMw vs the world

Is it too much hassle to just add Rush to the rotation on Fridays? Then we could play it and police it, I do enjoy Rush but as has been said it's can be a bit of a disaster with the pubbies.

I think this will cause way less drama in the long run. Though Rush can be quite enjoyable when the teams are balanced.

Yes please remove them!

I was discussing with Ninja the other day on teamspeak about the possibilty of putting the rush maps in rotation for friday night but then again i dont think that would work as...

1)teams are unbalanced (dMw vs The world, We have some very strong players in dMW)
2) It would be a white wash.

I think we would end up losing people if we did this although the idea does temp me i dont think it will work.

Some of the rush maps are actully quite stupied and I Feel make it an almost impossible job for the attackers to attack ( the one where you start off on the carrier is dumb, Operation metro is dumb unless people know what there doing/are lucky.

This is entirely possible.

Guys,

Let's focus this discussion on one thread. Please use the Karkand DLC thread as I'm closing this one.

Apologies for the confusion with both threads.
