Just a small suggestion regarding map rotation that the current rotation has got me thinking.
"There are a plenty of cool maps out there but are they strong enough to go straight into the glory BF2 "2F4Y.com - Best Maps No Rules" Mapcycle? It will be a hot run - thats for sure - and every vote will count. You and the whole 2F4Y Community will decide, now!"
So basically this says that we can decide with our votes which maps will be in the rotation but lately this doesn't seem to be the case. The last 5 maps in the list which are Great Wall, Blue Pearl, Smoke Screen, Tampa and Taraba Quarry seem to be coming up in almost every rotation in the last months or at least half of them. I know the basic rotation is pretty much one citymap, two airmaps and that you try to reset the server at certain time after all the maps have rotated.
My suggestion is that some of the "better" maps would be rotated twice in one rotation instead of adding the less liked ones in there. Approximately half of the these maps would then be played in one rotation before restart resulting in the better maps being rotated thrice in two full rotations.
Just something I had in mind, would be nice to hear what other people think about this. |

Wrong! You cannot vote maps out of the rotation, you can just decide HOW OFTEN a map will be played.
Played maps of the last 24 hours:
Dalian => 4x
Sharqi => 4x
Kubra => 4x
Karkand => 4x
Jalabad => 3x
Mashtuur => 3x
Oman => 2x
Daqing => 2x
Dragon => 2x
Fushe => 2x
Wake => 2x
Zatar => 1x
Blue Pearl => 1x
Clean Sweep => 1x
Tampa => 1x
Best maps run 4x more often than maps with the least votes.
Looks to me that it resembles the voting results pretty well.
The thread was certainly opened because of Blue Pearl - I was online and saw the whining on the server because the map degenerates to a mess when USMC does not manage to get a flag.
But that is definitely possible! And I've already played several Blue Pearl rounds on our server when USMC got Temple and Fish Market.
It's utopistic to make everyone happy all the time!
Hope for the best, prepare for the worst. |

But if U let players vote for map IN THE GAME it will be nice, coz sometimes balance work like a bullshit, and before 5 min on for example Dalian China got every flags on map. In that situation there is no point in play second round on this map and with this NOT FAIR teams.
Also vote for kick players will be good for everyone... of course in my opinion. |

Kicking is no deterrent as you can just rejoin, Commander mutiny voting is needed though |

How about a Mashtuur-Monday? Would love to play that map more often.
Same with Kubra Dam. But thats only my opinion...
And isnt it possible to NOT always restart the server with that vehicle whoring, grenade spamming Karkand ?!

Is there a page where we can see the current map rotation, or at least which maps are coming up? |

It would still be nice if it was possible to see what map is up next. But I guess that depends on how the dynamic map rotation is implemented. |

One player = one vote
Want to play some maps more often? Try to convince other players.
I for my part deeply hate Mashtuur and rarely play when the map comes up. I would like to never see that map again.
And yet it's there, and I can deal with it.
I simply accept that there are players out there that like a particular map or the way to play it - completely opposed to me - and that's fine.
But in return I expect others to have the same liberal attitude.

No it is not.
Our provider only allows us changes to the maplist when the server is stopped.
And especially now you people are totally going mad when the server is down longer than necessary (or has any hiccups).
Plus: it's a tribute to its roots - it used to be a Karkand only server and Karkand still ranks very high in the voting. 3x karkand a day won't kill you!
Back in the days when our server was a karkand-only server I got fed up with the map since it was the only one to be played - now my sympathies for the map come back and I like playing it from time to time.

The next map (since it depends on multiple factors and the game can be highly dynamic) can change up to the very last minute of the game, so you can as well join the server to see what comes next. The information becomes stale within seconds - it simply makes no since to announce it anywhere.
Hope for the best, prepare for the worst. |

Karkand is one of the most popular and most played BF2 map of all time. Entire servers has been dedicated to it and you complain that it's on 3-4 times a day?! |

i dont understand it:
I went to vote results and i see:
Dragon 3# has 97% rate was 2times only
Dalian plant was 4 times but has less vote than Gulf. Gulf was only 2 times.....
Kubra was 4 times with 86%rate Gulf was 2 times with 94% ......
That system probably does not work correctly...
Can u exaplin it? Can u reapir it ? |
