Title: Bugged DTV maps
Post by: Patoson on August 29, 2012, 04:44:05 am
The maps where bots got stuck at their spawn all the time and that had supposedly been removed are back in the rotation.

This would be great, I hate being the only person willing to go kill the bots stuck in spawn and then being dead for 20 mins while the rest of the group slowly dies  :|

You know it's true. You have to admit that it's annoying when it happens.

The ideal solution would be to fix bots getting stuck, but I thought that simply removing those maps would be easier. There are plenty others anyway.

Most maps are bugged and most people who play dtv exploit terrain. DTV is outdated and non-fun thanks to it.  People don't want to fix it, they want easy experience. Therefore, removing dtv and replacing it with more entertaining cooperative game mode wold be great decision.

But then, if you say "cooperative", you are talking about players fighting bots. Am I right? Even if it was Defend the Village, bots would still get stuck on those maps.

The fact that you don't like it doesn't mean everyone else thinks like you. There are many people like me who like this gamemode.

But, please, feel free to suggest something new!

People 'exploit' the terrain because they have to. Most bots have insane accuracy, speed, power and health. We can't use our own horses and those we can die at the end of each round. So wtf are people supposed to do?

You have my vote.  Some of the current DTV maps are really bad; impossible to win on once you have more than five or so players.
Title: Re: Remove certain DTV maps
Post by: Patoson on September 05, 2012, 09:26:24 pm
This thread is not about hard maps, but maps where at least one bot always gets stuck at spawn, which is far away from the virgin, and which makes the person who goes for the bot die most probably before he can run back.

You have to use the "reverse method": tell him you don't give a **** about DTV and he will eventually share it (the way it's done with little children) :)

Yeah, DTVillage  was really enjoyable but it needed very refined maps to work, with zero glitching points, where players could be safe from bots. And it was a lot more difficult, don't even remeber defeating tincans there :D
Title: Re: Remove certain DTV maps
Post by: Patoson on September 30, 2012, 12:43:18 pm
Seriously, do you people think that, at this stage (reading so many comments about what you are mentioning in different threads for some time), chadz or the person in charge of DTV cares enough as to dedicate a longer time to bring back DTVillage than it would take him to just remove those maps?

There are plenty other maps in the rotation, and I think that this would be easier than what you people are suggesting. So, please, stop derailing my thread. If you want to comment about DTVillage, do it in a different thread. Thank you!

Apart from restricting our actions in the game-mode, you could also help us by removing those few maps, for example, and restoring EU_7.

These maps are annoying since they take long to clear waves, which equals less rewards.
I love DTV, It's basically the only reason I play Crpg.
Title: Re: Remove certain DTV maps
Post by: Patoson on December 14, 2012, 01:31:42 pm
More than the reward, the problem relies on spending hours on the same map, because someone has to go to their spawn - sometimes very far away - to kill the last bot (or hopefully make it move) - and it's not hard that that person dies after doing that, since the next wave spawns right in front of him.

It's just as if, in battle, one team had to run all the way to the other team's spawn, because they are camping spawn - but worse, because the bots just don't move at all.

If some DTV maps were made that were designed specifically for DTV do you think you could add them to try them out?
I'm thinking gauntlet style maps that the bots have to run through and where you can get shield walls going, or ones where you have a defensible position on top of a hill ect instead of just fences or houses to glitch bots on.
The current DTV "metagame" of just abusing terrain is pretty stupid and ruins what could otherwise be a fun gamemode I think, although it would probably require some rebalancing in the waves.

I had a go at making a gauntlet type map for DTV a while back, it is pretty awful since i'm not good at making maps but I just made it as a rough test and maybe someone could take the idea and do it better than me so DTV can be a more fun gamemode.

Sorry for the poor screenshots I can only run directx7 lowest settings but I think this type of map made better would be awesome for DTV (would probably need to be considerably larger for one..)

the map names have been messed up on the HRE servers for quite some time until i fixed it in october i think(?), so the names displayed now are the correct ones. i already removed some maps where the bots got stuck badly. i will check the maps in the opening post tomorrow, so i might remove a few more.

for general use:
#Gisim
#add_map village_83 # bots get stuck at spawn

#Azgad
#add_map village_3 # bots stuck near spawn

#Nomar
#add_map village_4 # bots stuck at spawn

#Amere
#add_map village_7 # bots stuck near spawn

#Sumbuja
#add_map village_14 # bots stuck at spawn

#Ilvia
#add_map village_23 # bots get stuck on hill

#Buillin
#add_map village_29 # bots stuck at spawn

#Serindiar
#add_map village_64 # bots stuck near spawn

They're bugged maps but they're still playable,

Mainly complaining about them if they don't have a decent fenced area, roof top or hut to lure them to it is. A rubish map lol.
