Tim/Tragy/Bobbins/Optrex/Mushy/me) I hadn't posted on this one up to now cos I disagree with most of the map choices so far :) All the following is IMHO: Cliff (and variants) is an abomination. If I'm going to die, I want to be shot, not fall off a f**king rock. Punwar is the most horrific looking map I've ever seen, and I've seen some shite in my time (it's worse than _dream_, for God's sake). Hostage2 is only really good if the player count is below 2 figures, preferably around 6. Urban2 is better than the other urbans (hate day maps), but probably isn't well suited to DM. Haven't even seen cheyenne on an FTP server, so I can't comment there, and I haven't played KGB2 in a long time. No-one seems to have mentioned office3 or mall2 (classics, IMHO). The new ones like tokyo, downtown, midtownx and subway99 haven't turned up either, which surprises me. -- TreeFrog treefrog@REMOVE.kenly.demon.co.uk ICQ No. 2657698 My e-mail address is munged.
