The issue with every map is if you want to get deferent play you have to block off the center of the map. People will take the fastest route to the other team almost 100% of the time in typical death ball fashion.

again underscoring the issue.

Yet smart military types won't, often times. Because "tactics". People being to impatient to actually plan ahead, or attempt to organize, is again a people issue.

Huzah! Three cheers for Alpine!

[Mead]

Wait. If he had "old" information that said Alpine was going away, how could it "always" have been staying?

Eurasia or Eastasia?

[Rashhaverak]

It's great news that they are keeping the map. Alpine is one of my favorites, and I've won or lost from every spawn. They spent good money building it, and it would be a shame to just huck it in the trash. Those who don't like it should just not vote for it. There are just as many people who hate the volcano maps.

There's nothing wrong with the map itself, the problem is in how people play on it. It's not like there are rules that require players to storm the center mountain.

Oh well. I hope the spawns at least get readdressed.

I think it's also high time map selection was made random again. I'd hate to see these 11 pages go to waste as well.

yes because keeping a map in rotation is definitely leading to the demise of MWO...

some of you forum "soothsayers" make me chuckle.
CB "MWO will die if you go OB"
OB "MWO will die if you move past OB status"
Clans "MWO will die due to them being OP"
CW "MWO will die if you don't change the MM of CW"
Hero Mechs "MWO will die cuz this is P2W"

guys, it's not really "foretelling" the future if you just make the same claim every single time something is done in the game. It means those saying it will finally sit here one day years down the road and say
"Told them it would die if they didn't listen to me"

Keep on keepin on though I guess. Whatever helps you sleep at night lol

[Clydewinder]

just need to move the bases so the mountain's effect on the battlefield is lessened. let the troll ERLL ravens go live up there, the rest of us can fight down low.

[Malleus011]

Glad Alpine is staying - variety is good.

They could address the spawn points, and randomize them up a bit, or flatten the central ridge a tad; but we'll leave that to them.

[Dawnstealer]

Just knock the mountain down a little so it isn't such a must-have location. Make the rest of the map the way it is in I4 - L12: rises and rocks, rolling hillocks. Maybe a high plateau where the mountain is, but not so lopsided - flatten it out.

[cazidin]

...Now can they please fix or remove Caustic Valley?

[Kyle Travis]

Good news - variety is a good thing

That is a contradiction, since it's also the visually most devoid of detail.

It might be void of detail, but that doesn't make it less visually appealing to me. A contradiction is not when someone disagrees with a particular aesthetic that another person enjoys.

That said, glad that Alpine is not going away. Because I like the way it looks.

Ok. I think Alpine Peak is a bad map and having it in rotation makes the game just that much worse.

Sue me.

Fantastic!
