Season 3 Map Pool

Date August 11, 2008

The Season 3 Custom Map Poll [Link] is over and we have two winners which will be included to Season 3 Map Pool: ctf_mach4 (43%) and cp_labor (42%).

Due to the public whine we decided to split Season 3 Map Pool in two different spots. All regular played maps can be picked three times, unregular clanwar maps can only be picked once.

Season 3 Map Pool

Primary Map Pool – every map can be picked three times

  • cp_badlands
  • cp_gravelpit
  • cp_pro_granary
  • cp_well
  • ctf_turbine

Secondary Map Pool – every map can be picked once

  • cp_dustbowl
  • cp_fastlane
  • (cp_freight_b3)
  • cp_labor
  • ctf_2fort
  • ctf_mach4
  • ctf_well
  • pl_goldrush

Note 1: Participants of Freight-1-Day-Cup [Link] will decide if cp_freight_b3a will be added to the Map Pool.

Note 2: Map Picks will start on 20th August.

If your team is still interested in joining Season 3, Sign-Ups are open for 3 more days, grab one of the last spots (see “Sign-Up Newspost” [Link] for more details).

    i vote for a removal of dustbowl goldrush 2fort
    hopefully one day remove ctf maps all together, there are few things more boring than ctf in tf2 :/

  2. CableGuy said:

    Agreed with treig (except dustbowl)

  3. morf: [j]\\\' - [j]' said:

    yeah, and move fastlane into the primary map pool

    Even though I agree with removing dustbowl, goldrush and 2fort, this is a really good step in the right direction!

    I know this has already been discussed, but I think CTF should have demoman limit set to one. Turbine is a great map but one which can be totally locked down by two demomen. Turbine already suffers from excessive down time when teams are charging uber. Two demomen only makes CTF more boring to watch and to play.

    I agree with Morf… fastlane should be in the primary map pool (turbine shouldn’t)

    You want remove 2Fort but vote for mach4! Im my eyes, mach4 *sucks* more then the old 2Fort.

    +Add Fastlane in the Prim. Mappool.

    Didn’t anyone see excello vs interrobang yesterday on 2fort?

    Not a single slow moment, lots of action with both teams offensive, no camping, lots of fun!

    Anyway, my opinion in the matter.

    While there are some maps I’d really hate to play, I don’t really mind playing them every now and then, variation is always fun.
    If more teams would just stop being boring and camped, maps like turbine and 2fort is great fun. Isn’t true for all maps though, like fastlane with its flawed designs/spawn times, no matter how much you attack it’s still bad by design, just sucks. Goldrush as well, don’t find it suited for 6vs6, not a bad map, just not made for this.

    Still really don’t see a reason for them to get removed from the map pool though. If we don’t start playing other maps, we never will, either. Can’t just wait for “better” maps to get released, I’m sure we can start liking some of the current map available instead if give them a chance. Just like the badlands flaming.. :)

    who the fuck has voted for mach4?? 43%?? What have you done?!

  11. treigzak: coolclan - Kvakkistansen said:

    anyone who voted mach4 should be taken away from their homes at night by the SS

  12. Rez: BEC - B-pin said:

    wow ! Turbine : primary pool ?

  13. Morf: [j]\\\' - [j]' said:

    cp_freight’s spawnplaces are really f**ked up aswell, spawntime doesnt matter.

  14. Crusa: Troopers said:

    Whine whine whine. This community is nothing but a bitching old lady. Nothing is good except pro_gran and badlands.
    I bet some of you would be happy if there wouldn’t be any other maps than those two. I mean come on.

  15. a: jizzed in his p said:

    Fastlane should be primary. :)

  16. Sigm@: xeno. said:

    More ctf_ Maps in Primary Pool! =)
    Specially 2fort ^^

  17. d0llar said:

    Fastlane should be primary, goldrush, dustbowl, 2fort, and mach4 sux, hope I’ll never have to play these..
    Hope you guys will consider the fact that really nobody wants these maps in their map pool, knowing there’s a chance it’ll be picked.
