Hi!
Again the title says everything: the new ladders only work in one of three or four attempts as planned. In the other cases they get stuck right after spawning in an obstacle behind you, or just in the air itself without noticeable reason. If the ladder manages to touch the object you want to lean it to, in many cases it stops 2 or 3m UNDER the top of the object, making the whole ladder completely useless!
Ladders are very important for me, as I often try to make my team use tactics, and ladders are a great help, because they magically attract players. Yesterday night we were playing this FUCKING map with the Swadian/Rhodok castle, where the defender spawn next to the inner circle of walls, the attackers spawn in front of the outer walls.
I told my team after 2 lost rounds "Follow me, I know a way", I took three ladders (I need only 2, but I knew about the buggy ladders, so I went for sure), I placed the first one on the outer walls, it worked, we climbed up, then I jumped onto some roofs to place a ladder the defenders can't reach (and destroy) from the inner wall, but BOTH ladders simply stopped midair right after spawning. There was no obstacle or anything else! My plan failed although nobody has made any mistake, our team got scattered, all of us had to lose 30% life by jumping off that roof, and we won only because of the defenders getting bored and looking for us in the streets. With some luck we won the first fights, regrouped again and won the map. But this can't be explained by something else than luck. If the defenders stayed in the inner circle we would have lost without chance.
So please do something about it, change it back to pre-patch-ladders, I don't want to disappoint my team and get disgraced by shitty working ladders again.
