C&C: Renegade --> Dying since 2003™, resurrected in 2024!
We're starting with this poll for the first included fan map in Core Patch 2. It is a AOW map and has no flying vehicles. This poll runs for 7 days. Thanks to zunnie for selecting these maps and testing them for our criteria.. Go vote! Map List: BasinTS BattleCreek Big_Walls Bio BunkersTS Cliffs Deth_River Forgotten_Town Fortress2K4 Gigantomachy High_Altitude High_Noon_2.1 Meadow Metropolis Niagra Ravine SeasideSunset Terrace Tobruk Tropics Uphill Woodland Quick_Draw
Bah, I'm too sleepy and voted for BasinTS instead of BunkersTS
Change his vote then!! It could be all important I voted for Bunker_TS as well. Nice map and fairly even in all. I like it. Tilly
Bunkers TS or Seaside Sunset... Hmmmm Yeh Bunkers is decent enough.
Deth River !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I think this map is very underrated and it is also different to others. (btw not jus saying that because i used to be in dadeth )
dethnfire Deth River !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I think this map is very underrated and it is also different to others. (btw not jus saying that because i used to be in dadeth ) I've also voted for deth_river, because its a great map not because im from Dadeth
Tropics
WNxTiger BunkersTS for me Hey Crazy Wild One. Yup, BunkersTS for me.
Voted Gigantomachy, very nice map.
I support old skool maps like, Gigatomachy. I loved that map when it came out. That map was always fun with lots of players.
Conquest Winter should be added to that poll... ...But it wasn't so Tropics
Conquest winter is a nice map indeed, there is only ONE reason i didnt include it: Once there are 10+ players in the server -no matter how fast your pc is- everyone will start to FPS lag like hell because it has no VIS setup on the map probably.
IRON FART Conquest Winter should be added to that poll... is that not the REALLY huge map that is never won by base destruction and only points? voted Deth river it is a very nicely made map with plenty of routes to attack from
zunnie Conquest winter is a nice map indeed, there is only ONE reason i didnt include it: Once there are 10+ players in the server -no matter how fast your pc is- everyone will start to FPS lag like hell because it has no VIS setup on the map probably. I was under the impression that any maps that were put in would be fixed up and optimized, including fixing all known VIS problems
Voted BunkersTS. Next poll I'll be going with SeasideSunset for sure though, that map is awesome.
what the hell,,, giantomatchy has 14% votes are you guys crazy, that maps is about as good as the ass crack it in it anyway bunkers is good, BUT next should be terrance or high_noon2.1 ...
Nothing from Titan should go in. Renegade is bad enough as it is, adding his work would be like dressing up Havoc in a clown suit and parading him around.
Majiin Vegeta IRON FART Conquest Winter should be added to that poll... is that not the REALLY huge map that is never won by base destruction and only points? No, you're thinking of C&C_Field. I've played it many times with an average of 10 people, and it ran just fine. (And I don't have an absurdly fast computer) Quote: Conquest winter is a nice map indeed, there is only ONE reason i didnt include it: Once there are 10+ players in the server -no matter how fast your pc is- everyone will start to FPS lag like hell because it has no VIS setup on the map probably. If the author would fix 2 things in that map, it would be great. - VIS Setup so people don't suffer - The cargo plane for Nod flys by really high and vehicles are spawned very high up. If that would be fixed, it would be great. That map is awesome with stealth tanks.
I'd vote for Deth River over any map listed here once the fps drops some people have are fixed.
Where is the "None" option? I don't want more stupid maps on "Normal" servers, if there are any left without big, grey, stupid boxes and soldiers with Volt Rifles.
Why don't you deth people just come out and say "The only reason we voted for deth river is because we're in the deth clan"? It's quite obvious that's the only reason you voted for it, because no one else is.
Seems bunkers TS is winning, but please before adding it rebalance the gameplay on that map. Like recon bikes early in the game always destroy GDI. Oh and i can't vote for 1. There are a few i like. Those would be Bio, Deth_River, Meadow, Terrace (if water is fixed), Tropics and Woodland.
Aircraftkiller Why don't you deth people just come out and say "The only reason we voted for deth river is because we're in the deth clan"? It's quite obvious that's the only reason you voted for it, because no one else is. We like the map, because it was in our serverrotation for a long time and we enjoyed playing it. It's not just because we are or were in the clan that has a member who created it.
Yeah, and that's why the only people that voted were deth members right? At least be honest with yourself. Recon Bikes do not win the game for Nod in the beginning. GDI can afford Rocket Soldiers with homing missiles before Nod can afford Recon Bikes... Which doesn't matter too much because Rifle Soldiers or Officers can destroy them easily too. The sniper units do a great job of destroying them, too. A Recon Bike is $500, a Deadeye is $500, it only takes a few shots to destroy one.
Aircraftkiller Yeah, and that's why the only people that voted were deth members right? At least be honest with yourself. I am, it's mostly the deth members that played on our server, hence why they all like the map. Maybe if it was in the rotation on more servers others would've liked it aswell.

Which doesn't matter too much because Rifle Soldiers or Officers can destroy them easily too. The sniper units do a great job of destroying them, too. A Recon Bike is $500, a Deadeye is $500, it only takes a few shots to destroy one. It's sounds easy like that but never have a (few) snipers been able to destroy an early recon rush. Nod destroys the barracks and power plant 85% of every game played on that map within the first few minutes. Decreasing both ROF and weapon range will fix this (it was the range of a MRLS ffs...).
If you play with me in Bunkers TS, you'll know that Nod can be prevented from even entering their vehicles. Although, that wall that Nod has by the airstrip is a VERY nice touch! It provides an exciting new challenge and gives Nod a chance to get to their vehicles before dying. But honestly, if you leap down on a bike with a shotgun... or an officer... or even peg them with c4...

It provides an exciting new challenge and gives Nod a chance to get to their vehicles before dying. But honestly, if you leap down on a bike with a shotgun... or an officer... or even peg them with c4... The recons are in the tiberium area when doing their early rush. You can't snipe them (infantry) yet since no one can buy a sniper and run to the hill before Nod has recons.
zeph Recon Bikes blows... :rolleyes: Watch me with one.
Why not just stay in your base with the sniper then? You don't need to be on the hill before you can damage recon bikes...
Wow, stop putting stupid ass maps in the core patches wow
Wow, stop making stupid ass posts on these forums wow
Aircraftkiller Wow, Reborn sucks wow When the hell are you gonna shut the fuck up about reborn? We have heard it enought already. Your not gonna get any farther. Your mod aint the best either. You promised a lot of stuff which you never did finish/make public.
This is the best set of fan maps out there now? It's almost the same as it would have looked a year ago...
I'm not so sure that anyone is making good maps anymore. Although many people may hate me saying this. Since ACK stopped making normal ren maps there haven't really been any other good maps made that have become popular. I don't always agree with him but I do like most of the maps he made apart from that Eglin (Or whatever it was) base map. That just sucked (I know u just wanted to make a map of where you knew so no flaming please) There are a few good maps up there but also remember that these are the AOW only maps, there will be another poll for flying maps etc. Tilly
Aircraftkiller Yeah, and that's why the only people that voted were deth members right? At least be honest with yourself. I voted for it, and I've never been in the deth clan. I like the map.
Dan Aircraftkiller Yeah, and that's why the only people that voted were deth members right? At least be honest with yourself. I voted for it, and I've never been in the deth clan. I like the map. same as
genetix Aircraftkiller Wow, Reborn sucks wow When the hell are you gonna shut the fuck up about reborn? We have heard it enought already. Your not gonna get any farther. Your mod aint the best either. You promised a lot of stuff which you never did finish/make public. Renalert sucks even more anyways.

Your mod aint the best either. You promised a lot of stuff which you never did finish/make public. I never promised anything. Lying isn't good, try researching what you're talking about. Quote: Renalert sucks even more anyways. We never made anything called "renalert", but a particular TV network might have made a game called Ren & Stimpy Alert... And yes I know Eglin AFB sucked. It wasn't because of what it was based on, it was becuase I didn't have the schematics to remake the base properly. If I had access to satellite photography of the area I could have done it better.
Alkaline what the hell,,, giantomatchy has 14% votes are you guys crazy, that maps is about as good as the ass crack it in it I made the damn thing, and even I can't believe it...
mac We're starting with this poll for the first included fan map in Core Patch 2. It is a AOW map and has no flying vehicles Terrace HAS flying vehicles
rofl, ack ur great. Every post ive ever seen out of you hates on reborn. You realize though that even renalert isnt that great. The only changed renalert has now is redoing a building every 2 weeks
[RoC Twix]rofl, ack ur great. Every post ive ever seen out of you hates on reborn. You realize though that even renalert isnt that great. The only changed renalert has now is redoing a building every 2 weeks Who is this ack person and what is renalert ?? :rolleyes:
http://www.google.com/search?q=renalert
C&C: Renegade Alert We finally have an answer. They meant this all along =O
Wow, I can't believe they meant that. I thought they were talking about Ren & Stimpy all this time. They better check and make sure!
am I the only one who doesn't like bunkers TS and thinks the original bunkers should go in? Bunkers was originally a WW map that never made it to the game so don't you think you should be adding pro-made maps like these as first choice? it's a map set at night, rainy, with base defenses on. apart from that it's the same as bunkers TS except it has no recon bike, missiles don't seek and the mammoth's tusk missiles are set to their defaults. Gigantomachy is terrible as each base is hidden away in a corner behind the base defence, so you NEED vehicles to do anything. everyone who plays it grabs a sniper or APC. The FPS is horrible in a 16 vs 16 game. apart from that both bases are surrounded in nonsensical cliffs, what's that all about? conquest winter is also bad because there is a single thin entrance to each base so it's always won on points as nobody can get into the other base. Fortress? lol don't make me laugh because I'll end up puking all over it. deth river was OK. the last time I played it it seemed balanced enough and there is something for everyone in it. basinTS isn't bad either. the other maps I think are good enough in that list are woodland, ravine, metropolis and MAYBE cliffs....can't remember what that map is like. if sanada could fix the FPS issues in woodland it might be good......WITHOUT SNIPERS
Yes, I thought Gigantomachy was a great concept and well put-together visually, but in gameplay it just didn't work out. The bases ended up way to difficult to infiltrate and it made for every game to just be a death match.
Dang, you're hurting my feelings now... Only kidding. Gigantomachy is crap. I severely lost interest in it towards the end, so never finished it off properly.
Visually? It honestly looked like ass. He had a good concept behind it but really didn't polish it off. If Pi had finished up that train level he was working on, you'd think Gigantomachy sucks as much as I do.
Who is this "Pi" you speak of? :rolleyes:
j4S[p ]Who is this "Pi" you speak of? :rolleyes: ROFL
Damn, forgot about that train level. Wish I'd finished that one now. Oh well.
Do you have any interest in finishing it?
I remember that now! That would be awesome!
I don't have the time to finish it at the moment, even if I had the inclination.
flyingfox am I the only one who doesn't like bunkers TS and thinks the original bunkers should go in? Bunkers was originally a WW map that never made it to the game so don't you think you should be adding pro-made maps like these as first choice? it's a map set at night, rainy, with base defenses on. apart from that it's the same as bunkers TS except it has no recon bike, missiles don't seek and the mammoth's tusk missiles are set to their defaults. If they were to release the original bunkers, im sure they would release the newer version, 1.2, which does not have base defenses.
By they, you mean me. No, I'm not releasing the original version with major base defenses. It was bad design and didn't allow for much combat. Light defenses like Turrets and Guard Towers still provide somewhat of a challenge, but allow the game to progress instead of bottle up at choke points ala Under or Field.
Bunkers TS is alot more enjoyable than the original Bunkers, in my experiance anyway.
So Aircraftkiller... Who is this "Pi" you speak of? Honestly man, I don't have the slightest fucking idea in my head. :rolleyes:
Tropics has half the votes and is as shitty as they come. Meanwhile ACK, your're gonna bash other people for their maps? Btw, this is only the voting for the 1st map...there will be others added correct?

"Gigantomachy is terrible as each base is hidden away in a corner behind the base defence, so you NEED vehicles to do anything. everyone who plays it grabs a sniper or APC. The FPS is horrible in a 16 vs 16 game. apart from that both bases are surrounded in nonsensical cliffs, what's that all about?" Gigantomachy 9% [ 8 ] Welcome to online polls.
... You say it's a bad map and 9 people vote for it, hence my message
I can't fathom why those people would vote on it...maybe they like horrible gameplay, who knows.
Or maybe, just maybe.....their opinion differs to yours. Hard to believe, I know...
I really like all the maps on the poll, but alot of them are poorly designed. Are you gonna try to repair the maps or wha? I agree with Sniper_De7. All I ever see on that map is Snipers and APC's. It's like a mini-version of Conquest Winter.
j4S[p ]So Aircraftkiller... Who is this "Pi" you speak of? Honestly man, I don't have the slightest fucking idea in my head. :rolleyes: Is it such a challenge to burn him that you need to drag this out over 2 posts? Even after he already ignored you? Even after PiMuRho already responded to it? So when does this vote end?
Damnit we need more people to vote. 22 people is nothing compared to RG users. How can we spread this topic around?
I added an article on the community MOTD on RenGuard.
That is a good idea. It might be a slight pain in the ass, but would be good to make the poll separate from Renforums.com so that more people will vote. If some people have to go through the registration process just to cast their vote, they might not think it's worth it. Or you could even temporarily allow guests to vote. I don't know if that could be done though.
Or add something to allow votes through RenGuard. Limit it to 1 vote per serial hash to prevent people from just logging on with different names.
Bunkers_TS sucks majorly. just go with Regular Bunkers. tis a fun map. also,could somebody make a less-laggy version of Glacier_Flying? that f*cking map lags like hell.
All of those maps suck. Bunkers TS indefinatly sucks. Kthx.
It indefinately sucks? Do you know what indefinately means? But frankly, I'm not too fanatic about the maps up there. Partly because I love the standard maps, but still.
So was a decision made? Will we see another vote soon?
Yeah, put it on RenGuard. The serial hash thing is a good idea.
zeph Where is the "None" option? I don't want more stupid maps on "Normal" servers, if there are any left without big, grey, stupid boxes and soldiers with Volt Rifles. UNRULES.COM - GSA
Those extra things are part of SSAOW, not the maps.
EatMyCar Bunkers_TS sucks majorly. just go with Regular Bunkers. tis a fun map. also,could somebody make a less-laggy version of Glacier_Flying? that f*cking map lags like hell. There is a distinction between Internet latency, also known as "lag", and framerate issues. Make that distinction, retard.
I would have to go with BunkerTS as well. It's just a great map!!
Crimson I added an article on the community MOTD on RenGuard. I also threw up a link and topic about this too on "The Dark Angels' site.
I like the Standard Maps because in my opinion those were some of the best strategicly, but I am for adding new maps with better Sound and Visual Effects. I have T-1, so call me bias if you want to against dial-upers, but if they can't handle better maps... Get DSL. Have a seperate server specifically for those who can handle more skins, characters, tanks, whatever. --T.C.
I vote High_Noon 2.1
Aircraftkiller There is a distinction between Internet latency, also known as "lag", and framerate issues. Make that distinction, retard. But doesn't it look the same on your screen though?
Umm, no. Lag is people skipping around. Framerate issues is everything skipping. Having a bad framerate can cause higher lag because your processor is processing your graphics more than the network, but you'll hardly notice it, because you'll be noticing the framerate problems. Maybe 200 extra ping, usually. Having high lag is noticeable by objects (players, vehicles, etc) jumping around. Also, you may think you're getting perfect aim, when in fact, you're totally missing. Other *really* wierd things can happen from lag, such as objects being connected wrong (like in my case, a player looking like he's out of a vehicle, when in fact he's in a vehicle).
*ugh* download ubermappack @ mpclan.net *ugh*
Jzinsky Aircraftkiller There is a distinction between Internet latency, also known as "lag", and framerate issues. Make that distinction, retard. But doesn't it look the same on your screen though? Its the same damn thing when you are bouncing up and down,and end up under a tank,loosing a 1000 character. and its really f*cking common on Glacier.(Roleplay.mix is just awful for this)
Quote: *ugh* download ubermappack @ mpclan.net *ugh* *ugh* of course anyone can download them...it's just that no server runs the maps (or they run empty) if they're not in cps or they're not original westwood maps *ugh*
