new maps ?

Postby JOHNNYROCKET24 on Sat Feb 14, 2015 8:21 am

I been wondering when new maps will arrive ? It has been many months since a new one has been released. Did all the map mappers quit ? Did Big Wham put a halt on new maps stating " too many options " for players ? These are the things I worry about laying in bed at night.

why? are the 11 suck fests currently in BETA not enough to satisfy your urge to vomit? the glut of maps, in my opinion, is one of the main reasons for the decline... too many choices, too few users, not enough games... they need to separate the maps into suggested categories: classic, advanced, 1v1, speed, trench, excessively large, beyond shitty (jinn, summit)... more than a few of the maps could be deleted from the database and i doubt few would care. Africa II just pooped (yes, pooped not popped) up in one of my random games, and it is absolutely HORRIBLE. how did that get through the foundry? oh, that's right, they spent years running off users with valid opinions and their best map makers!! i almost forgot!! please, no more maps... once they turned map making into a medal endeavor and the likes of Blitz and his cronies set about to get maps made, it was the beginning of the end... the chickens have come home to roost, the foundry is dying faster than the site...-Jésus noir

p.s.-like that black history metaphor thrown in?

Indeed, there are way too many maps in the site. Many of them are similar and offer nothing new. It would be good if some of them could be deleted. It seems that map makers have gotten a bit too much active in the creation progress, not emphasizing so much in variety, but in quantity and production. I also do not agree that "extra options can never hurt". The game options are already complex enough and the site gives a very chaotiv impression.

agreed. too many maps and not enough players. i don't know if i would go as far as having them deleted, but maybe just have the available map selection cut in half, then every week or so let one of them be available that isnt normally available. sure, that may be more work for someone. if you dont lime it dont volunteer to be a free worker. it would probably help the site tremendously.

the foundry it totally dead and almost unrevivable

no map should ever be deleted. every map is a favorite to someone. plus, it would screw up game finder and everything. not a good idea at all.

like i said, the chickens have come home to roost...they ran the regular forum folk out... put out garbage maps and refused to admit they were horrible suck fests... they even moved their forum to the top of the list to increase traffic when everyone stopped coming by for a visit (still waiting for that data you promised, andy.. you know, the data that shows the uptick in foundry traffic after the move above the GD and all other parts of the forum... years, and i'm still waiting for those promised numbers)... the arrogance of the foundry and the lack of quality maps they have put out over the past few years, have contributed to the decline of the site. too many maps, too many options, stale game play, maps that are difficult to read or just plain garbage. again, they need to be separated into different sections/tiers. someone suggested moving some of the least popular maps into a sort of retirement, where they are rotated in for a week or a month, to drum up interest in the map again... anyway, we don't need new maps, we need the maps we have better organized and some of the put out to pasture or into semi-rotation-retirement...-Jésus noir

"Originally inspired by the board game RISK™, Conquer Club has taken Risk online, expanding the concept to include over 200 maps, playing bots, casual and speed games, numerous gameplay options, tournaments, clans and more! So now you can play a game like Risk online with many thousands of other players and an endless variety of styles".

I thought we had too many options ? Im confused

maybe not delete them, but sort them.
much of old maps could not go throught foundry now because their low quality. is CC proud of these awful maps?

Whats wrong with you guys these new maps are awful. They are either horribly hard to read and or trying to be so complex that it makes no sense. It would be best if none of those maps come to be.

I dissagree, I love complex maps. The classical gameplay gets boring after a while, so it's a fun diversity.

How beautifully quaint. A retrospective abortion nominee describing maps as retrospective abortions. I heart CC fora. Now just need Owenshooter to come in and defend the maps as part of his official arse kisser obligations.

Good for you im happy your happy but i am positive i would not be able to make out one word on the maps you play making you an automatic winner and im not the only one in that situation. It's my belief that most of the people who play maps like that only play them for those kind of cheap wins. Also i was not insinuating all non standard maps are senseless and confusing only that most of them are such as the new ones they are the problem.

Come on Uncle, you have sold out. Joined the dark side. Do you really believe what you used to post about too many maps? I thought the shiny, golden, new heyzeus now was a determined lackey.
