Topic says it all.

However my fellow quakers, please share your thoughts about the maps, what maps should be removed and what maps should be taken in?

This is not a vote, this is a open discussion which I will consider when it is time to write down the rules.

For example, what is your opinion about aeroq2? q2duel3/q2rdm5? q2rdm1? Is q2dm2 too campy?

	So we are gonna make pro-q2dm7, pro-q2duel1 and pro-q2dm2. Gerdt: let's try to pick 2 players, mb sya and some more ql guy, and ask them to play q2rdm1, record the demo and post it on ds.
Blaizz	2007-03-10 16:21
	- dm2 (imba in any case) + q2duel1 (absolutely agree with dael about need replace one yellow armor instead of green on aerowalk for better ballance) new maps - q2rdm1, q2rdm9, q2rdm10(last one even used on some old events afaik) - not bad maps, some new breath (c) p.s.: still dunno why so many guys dont like ztn2dm2.. its probably the best strategy/ballanced map and now with prohibited timers in 1v1 it should become even more interesting and competitive; its really enough aim-maps in leagues maplists - so why you ppl want to throw away at least one of 2-3 only good tactic maps? "boring"? omg reason :] ye its pretty easier to just shoot on resps like on rdm7 :] and for sure it keeps much fun sarcasm :] peace

	+match1 +q2dm7
Gerdt	2007-03-10 06:14
	I like q2rdm1 but I'd like to see a _serious_ duel on that map. Oh and why remove dm2? Just learn to play it!

	+aerowalk +match1 -Ztn2dm2 -BFG

Nazz	2007-03-09 10:36
	y vote FOR this idea, also i accept YA in dm7. it would smth like d5 only without rg and cg, lots of action, intense game=== FUN Edited: 2007-03-09 10:37
kabysdoh	2007-03-09 03:41
	mb we should try dm2 with yellow armor and with/without bfg... it can be interesting. Edited: 2007-03-09 03:45
patter	2007-03-08 19:04
	2 dimmo... and remove bfg in duels...
eden	2007-03-08 10:36
	yessuz HAHA, joke of a day?
yessuz	2007-03-08 04:49
	u must leave dm2. in fact, dm2 is smaller than dm1, so, this argument is pointless. Dm2 is very good map. And i is possible to retake the control... Thats fun.
V!ct!M	2007-03-07 18:08
	in: aerowalk, duel3, match1 out: dm1, dm2, ztn2dm2 ))
eden	2007-03-07 09:08
	omg, no way to remove rdm7, dm1 etc.. maybe q2dm2 out and match1 in
Muerte	2007-03-07 05:38
	i don't know why EDL have map limit more maps more fun i know for some players its hard to learn new maps (8-9 years old) and they like to play simple maps with one YA if u look in EDL4 league stats u can see witch maps is popular more then others ztn2dm2 played in edl4 1st time and i think this map deserve chance in EDL5 q2rdm7/q2dm2 as less popular out q2duel1 / match1 lost last poll for few vote and they must be in list for next EDLs q2rdm1 is very nice duel map but no-demos on ds q2duel3/q2rdm5 Brutal Force justify her name if u know how to play and who can be better performer then winer in poll Best q2 player of all times purri purri vs Stuff on Brutal Force 11/2002 http://muerteq2.googlepages.com/Purri_staff_q2rdm5.zip if kick out q2dm1 EDL will stop to be Edge league
Dimmo	2007-03-07 05:04
	if dm7 red armor was replaced with yellow armor? same for dm2? i believe it would make them great duel maps
kabysdoh	2007-03-07 01:01
	rdm1 seems to be nice, need to try it with some duels. aerowalk is very cool imho. q2dm2 i prefer to out since it's too disbalanced - 1st spawn costs too much. What about other duel maps: we tried duel2/3 for RDLite tourney wich now ends, and we found duel3 is shit but duel2 pretty nice, so it was played on the tourney in the group stage. What about dm7 - never played there duels cuz nobody wants )) But it's gonna come similar to dm2 i guess. Edited: 2007-03-07 01:08
floyd	2007-03-06 20:12
	+++: q2dm1, q2dm3, q2dm7!, q2rdm1, q2rdm2, q2rdm7, q2duel5, ptrip, ztn2dm3 ---: q2dm2, aerowalk, ztn2dm2 CBA to give an explanation for all this; most things have been said already. But this is my opinion!
check	2007-03-06 17:32
	yes plz Aeroq2 is very nice. Lots of action. A bit mortal coil-ish but the transporters make it quite the arcade map Hmm, match1 , daelmun has a point there. Also about an EDL5 designed map
CsLq2	2007-03-06 17:32
	I agree with Daelmun about the q2dm2 replacing with match1. And the other maps...hmm.. maybe pro-q3dm6 conversion? Edited: 2007-03-06 17:32
dug-	2007-03-06 12:49
	i agree with kicia about duel1 ... is cool map .. and rdm1 is also playable dm2 should be removed yes :x
SeiSM	2007-03-06 12:10
	dm2 is a legerndary map for me so i still love it. q2rdm1 is cool! rdm5 duel3 i didnt like at all. also i love q3dm13 imo it could be inspired in edl
kicia	2007-03-06 11:32
	I would vote for new maps like: duel1, duel2, duel3, and rdm1. But i think that if something needs to be change is q2dm1 (remove!) dm2 as well ;] Edited: 2007-03-06 11:34
careem	2007-03-06 11:30
	I like q2rdm1 Q2duel3/q2rdm5 = shit maps really I want to remove ztn2dm2 caus its really shit map and very boring. Edited: 2007-03-06 11:33
wision	2007-03-06 10:49
	aeroq2 is campy q2rdm5 is cool q2rdm1 is ok, but i don't like it q2dm2 sucks :<
daelmun	2007-03-06 10:47
	First thing that strikes me is to replace q2dm2 with match1. Similar RA camping maps, but match1 is a lot more hectic and actually has some sort of balance and I'm having a weird fascination for the mega-deadend. And it's a classic q2 map, proven by being played in Quakecon Q2 tourney. Where as q2dm2 is too big and slow, and extremely hard to retake control on and the hiding/campy play to secure win is zzz. First spawn decides so much on that map. Not a big fan of the rape/be raped games on ptrip either, gotten enough of that for a long time to come, but doubt it will be removed since a lot seem to enjoy it. I love the idea of adding a non-rail map though, just to make the gameplay a bit different from the q2dm1/q2rdm2 rail-rape sessions, that favors players with a different style than the aim-maplockdown. Always wondered why the aerowalk version for quake2 has no yellow armor to give some sort of balance to the red armor for the down-player. Feels that it is somewhat broken for q2 play, but it's a nice enough map that haven't been overplayed in duels to still make it exciting. But as it is now RA+rail is just plain deadly, but it has enough rocket-spam angles to still make it possible to play it with other weapons. The others you mention I haven't played on, so wont pass judgements on those yet. What about trying to get some mappers involved and creating a map specifically designed for EDL#5, a sort of mapping competition where the winning map actually gets a chance to be played. Would be interesting indeed, but guess that requires a lot more effort than just chosing between already excisting maps, and I'm pretty sure there should be some around that are better than say q2dm2.
syanid	2007-03-06 08:40
	Oh and by the way, test the maps before you judge anything. I found q2rdm1 really nice to play when I tested it for the first time last night
