MilitaryRP | Seasonal Map Rotation

[Nutter 15,168]

 

Largely a work-in-process, but amongst the many things such as playermodels that I'm simultaneously working on, I did not forget those of you who voted in favor of a seasonal map rotation in many suggestion threads. This in theory accomplishes having a refreshing map to look at periodically as to not get bored of playing the same ongoing map for a period of 6 months, as we did with CSCdesert (2 years), Taiga Forest (8 months), and Delta (6 months).

This project is taking a very long time to complete due to the nature of mapping being extremely time consuming, and I've outsourced mappers, receiving help from the two extremely skilled mappers Diomonder (GG content  creator) and Jimbo (creator of RP_Highland) in working on different maps simultaneously for us. Thank you guys! I am extremely excited to be the first server within the MilitaryRP category (or in general) to offer regular map rotation with an extensive list of high quality maps!

 

This thread will be kept up for the long term to update players with milestones of completion per project

Suggest any changes for existing maps here as we go!

No problem! I let many people know that neither Delta nor Taiga will be removed from the server, these two maps consumed thousands of hours of me and Diomonder's free time, and I see them fit for the long term. They will however be modified during each cycle as to accommodate the playerbase's wishes (within reason).

playermodels that I'm simultaneously working on

Me, like the only person who likes the GRU models: ...

 

no but really garnet! You outdo yourself! When I first joined this community I saw you on once over the course of like 4 months! Now it’s amazing to see the constant updates and such. I actually don’t care if my factions models get swapped, in fact if you would like to see my idea of what they could be, DM me, but really I love the new idea of map rotation. Question though, how long will each map be out for? Personally I’m going to say 3 weeks is good, because I’m pretty sure if some Maps don’t have the ATTC and MATCH then we will need multiple tryout docs, so I suggest simply that those be in every map in one form or another. 

Though really man, you are doing a great job! I would love to see more updates on these maps soon!

Okay so this is kinda fuckin gamer nigga cause like— tryouts would change per map which switches the flow of it all and would allow faction leaders to be way more creative. 

 

Depending on how long each map stays for, niggas could restrict some class tryouts to only be available on some maps.

Not if he were to add a teleport let’s say, in a little room on taiga forest. it could bring you to MATCH. Most tryouts only really have sims and MATCH from what I’ve seen. Some others do other things but it wouldn’t be too hard to implement I think. Just time consuming, a small price to have variety

Nigga the fuck is a MATCH

 

Other than that, not every leader is going to stick to the same tryout from the previous one, so it would be kinda shit if a different leader changed the entire tryout. Plus there’s probably some other ramifications in doing that, such as disconnecting RP even further with a mf teleporter. I think it’s fine how it is.

Leave it to Garnet users to start full-blown discussions about a theoretical situation on an idea. Classic haha

 

To answer your questions, tryouts will indeed vary, but not as drastically as you might think. Structures such as Killhouse and faction bases will largely stay the same on the interior side, and upon switching maps will be available just as before. The only difference would be the exterior in order to match the new terrain. Sure, the terrain itself will change so if one is utilized in tryouts, leaders would have to come up with new ideas. But to reiterate, killhouse timings will be the same on every map moving forward.

All irony aside, I was polite enough to give people like yourself a second try in the community. Step up your English a couple notches on these forums and change your behavior right now or you'll be getting banned again

Yeah I understand. I was actually fucked so I didn’t mean to be retarded. @Phantom Apologies, seriously. Thank god I didn’t post any more past this. I’ll remember to sign out before I start drinking again xd

Is this KH the one with the water in it? Or is that just an obstacle course and KH is something separate. I’ve heard that objective exists, but I’ve actually never went because wars are always at embassy or silo. I’ve only looked at the course with water like once and didn’t actually run through it.

Are you planning to only use rp_garnet_charlie/delta/echo/etc or do you consider using one of these maps?

 

These maps are dated and were made when neither me or Diomonder were too skilled, so no, they will not be re-used.

[BatHulkSmash 45]

i know your probably sick of suggestions for map types and layouts, but, something to possibly add to Delta map whenever we get back to it in the future. Trenches. like the ones by embassy in Echo, they would fit perfectly in a desert combat scenario such as Delta or even ye old CSDesert.
