  42. Lyon said:

    BAZZILION?! finally comeback of this map!!!

  43. Maxer00 said:

    Everybody knows you’re not pro, if you haven’t played comp Dustbowl at least once.

  44. irfx: EPA said:

    2fort was played only in the first 2 seasons back in 2008, no point to have it in a mappool especially counting that it was removed for good (one of the worst maps for comp play ever). As people above said – gpit is a much better choice. Also fastlane was played much more often than that ugly abomination prolane. And maps like yukon or mach4 are the ones really forgotten.

  45. rarecandy said:

    why not pro dustbowl? or any other variant without stage 3

  46. benny: DM said:

    pubs basically

  47. weazul said:

    1luv for being able to play freight again. Gpit would be really cool though

  48. Aoshi: (Legend) - :think: - GRAHAM said:

    Thanks for the nice feedback so far! If you guys give the cup enough love then I’ll definitely try to implement most of it for a potential 2nd edition.

  49. Ignis: SVIFT said:

    replace 2fort with gpit pls

  50. Jacko720: PitO. said:

    2fort should never be taken out! :) But I think Gravel pit should be put in for a less classic map.

  51. Spicy: 4s said:

    where’s cp_fastlane? :c

  52. Pipoex: 68+1 said:

  54. Phnx said:

    On cp_well players are not allowed to deal damage during setup, while staying on their side or by standing on the train separating both sides.
    can I jump to their side and deal dmg }:-{}?

  55. Erupo89: ceo said:

    when will group come out??

  56. fluo: traphouse - ceo said:

    NAPOLETANA*

  57. Aoshi: (Legend) - :think: - GRAHAM said:

    @Pheonix, sorry about that. Small miscommunication with another admin. It should be written there now as how it’s supposed to be. So Pretty much you’re allowed to shoot enemy vidya gamers but not allowed to got across the train and start shooting them. If you accidentally get knocked onto their side just hop back to your own without damaging you opponents.

    @Fuoridi Thanks for pointing that out. Should be fixed now. ;)
