It's late so I shut off my computer. It's 1AM where I live and I'm on my laptop. I can't and don't have Gmod on my laptop due to it being a brand new version of linux (Called abuntu or some shit) and have the worst possible graphics card, ram, CPU, and harddrive. The laptop looks nice, but it runs slow as hell, came with Windows 7(But had to change to Linux), and literatly only costs like $200 brand new when I bought it.

If it's easy to go on Gmod and check it out, why is it so hard for you to go on gmod and take 3 pics?

Lol

I'm sticking with something I know. C18!

And besides, I think I played Venetien once and it's full of CS:S props and materials and stuff. I don't have CS:S
so if we do choose Venetien and it is full of errors I'm leaving until we change back.

C18 got old, Venetian barely anyone knows it. Download included, give it a try.
Title: Re: URGENT: Final Map Choices (closes in 3 days)
Post by: chunkeymonkey79 on June 18, 2011, 07:41:29 AM
Venetian= nope.avi

And, even though C18 is old, Venetian is horrible.

EDIT: Reading Hobo's post, if we switch to Venetian, I will kill myself. Personally will not play unless we switch to another map.
EDIT2: Isn't Statua working on a custom map anyways?

I've had a look at Venetian, and I have to say, it looks great, but I think there has to be a few changes made to it, (correct me if I am wrong, as I saw none of these things) such as a designated ration distrubition area, some more places for people to stay, such as a CCH block. (A good place for this would be the building near the factory thing overlooking the river) I'm not a mapper, so I don't know if this will take up resources(I think they're called that), but making some of the buildings possible to enter would be good, as it seems a lot of them are merely cosmetic details... (And please, no perma props in apartments! (Unlike c45).

Edit- I just found a clipping (like when you see outside the map) error near the freight container area, its when you open a door, you can see outside the map

After that review I'm voting for C18 XD c18 is my fav RP map out of them all. Large slums, large city, big enough apartments, many shops, a LARGE nexus, and even a hospital. C18 would be a great map on our server.

Post by: Statua on June 18, 2011, 12:52:15 PM
Venetian would take another week to load as there would be many many changes required to set it up properly. Not to mention it is very complex for the CCA to be able to maintain sociostability with all the corridors and corners...

More like the blandest, most-overused map in the history of mankind.

By the way, and Yankee can verify this, void one vote from City 18. Some used a second forum account to vote twice.

FYI. We will be using C18 day for the map so its not so bland.

I love C18; My vote is C18, the CCA's forces arnt so spread thin. S6 is nice, we all know and love it. So yes it is my vote I strongly hate Venetian. Unless the CPs get Airboats and Shotguns for all that close quarters

If Venetian is selected, my new patrolling tactics would be put into place, which includes patrolling in groups of two or three.

You havent been in the servers lately. We're lucky if we get two units patrolling let alone both the s6 HAP and the TransCEP being clamped.

It's a tied vote. One of the votes for City 18 doesn't count cause the same person went on another forum account and voted for City 18 again.

Post by: Pielolz on June 19, 2011, 09:39:46 PM
Alright people I like both maps but here is run down;


We all love C18; the CPs know the Nexus well and the Citizens know the City. Its easy to navigate and the S6 is above the City and is an actuall slum. Along with that; C18 has an invested Sub Way which would be nice little danger for civis.

Venetian is nice; but for CPs to act effectively they'll need Airboats with VU mod, and Shotguns because the close quarters will be highly treacherous for Civil Protection. The Med-Wing is seperate, and the Ration's Terminal is designed for automatic machines and not manned. Also; Housing is scarce and there is a lot of water; It would be good for CPs for a coast gaurd style


I have a feeling Venetian will win. But if so there are some IMPARATIVES:

Shotguns for ALL CPs (OR SMGs) The close quarter nature of Venetian will pose a high threat for CPs because there is no S6 or anything like it. And shooting across the Canalls will be difficult

Airboats (VU Mod) To get around Venetian will require this for CPs. Or the Civil Protection will be completely in-effective. and the Resistance will be within the City (a lot more metagaming)

Furthermore there is no Gear Room or anything like it. No HCMR its completely shitty Nexus compared to our C45 Edit. Its nice consept. But a lot of our players whom dont have CS:S Will have difficult. Please consider this; Venetian will need huge upgrades for the CPs for them to funtion.

Shotguns/SMGs : Talked to Burning. Units 04+ can request special training.

Airboats : No. Walk on the sidewalks like you're supposed to.

CSS : Most of our players have CSS.

Upgrades : A lot of new tactics are being developed.

Housing : There is actually plenty of housing.

Rations : Ration delivery rather than ration distribution.

Nikolai what do you do to cross the Canals? How do you get around a bulk of venice? The most efficeint way sis by boat. In SP go onto venetian. Spawn some COTA with shotguns and take em on with a pistol. a lot easyier with a Shotgun or SMG. Walk from one end of the map to another; and try it with an airboat

Current score is as follows:

Venetian- 17


(One vote is subtracted from City 18 because the same person voted with two accounts)

Why can't we just have a Ration Dispencer in the Trainstation or Terminal like everyone els?

No, it's not part of the cannon. The proper cannon is a Ration Dispencer at the Terminal or Trainstation.
