First off, i was confused as to where this would go, Map Suggestions, or General Discussion... If this is in the wrong spot, please move it to the correct forum. Alright, so the new vanilla maps are AMAZING (<3 Highwon for bringing back Mineshaft) except for 1... Frozen... This map is not balanced at all! If you are a t, in order to win, all you have to do is plant a C4 near spawn, then go climb a ladder... the innocents dont stand a chance because they cannot escape the C4. Some people might say "Oh well jump of the boat then" but if you do not have anough time/health, the round is over... There is too much "Ladder blocking" which results in death, and every single time that i have seen this map voted for, atleast 9 votes for !rtv come in within the first round. I say that we have a survey and whichever side wins stays...
I actually love this map, for me its very easy to get away from a c4 (usually depending on which side of the boat) I also think this is very unique map which allows snipers and shotguns usable on this map. My only concern with it is the lack of guns, it seems as if there is a lot of ammo but very few guns. Have a great day!
Although I do not personally stand on either side of the remove argument I would like to say this. A lot of maps (Maybe not on Vanilla) have a few spots that if you place C4 it will kill most of the server. Example being Clue. (Non Vanilla) I also am not a fan of the stairs that are just ladders when you walk on them.
The only good thing about them is the fact that you can make a leap of faith from the sails to the stairs and not die thanks to ladders.
The ladder-stairs are actually really annoying. That's the main reason why I'd want this map removed.
-Ladders are stairs -The huts viewable on the map are hardly nessecary and just allows more delay because of AFK innocents that decide to use it as a home and the fact that they only contain TWO AMMO BOXES each -Insane FPS drops -A bunch of unnessecary corridors and rooms that you can get stuck in Remove this map please
I agree, I think the map should be removed due to the increased lag/frame drop from the ladderstair things. Making it difficult for not so PC Power inclined to play normally. Also, its not that fun of a map. Most traitors are forced to a sniping position very far from the boat or on the mast. Making for a very drawn out round and very stale gameplay. Also, the snow causes a bit of an issue but a very minuscule one. Thanks ALSO THIS DOWN HERE ARCANIUS IS A MORE ELOQUENT SPEAKER THAN I.
it wouldn't be so bad if there weren't the ladders as the steps or just ladders in general only a few people experience the fps drop.
I mean I made a very sexy list of shit this map is in the thread I linked earlier in this thread... might as well spread the canc-- I mean Word.
As of my time in vanilla I personally drop from a steady 140 to like a steady 130 or a steady 120 on bad days at lowest steady 100 never below ... SO I don't get lag from the map.
I'm sure everything bad has been said about the map, asides from the getting stuck in the darned gold room hole. Is there anything good about the map?
I could make an addition to the list of shit. The ice physics... no they are there alright. The Ice Physics occur in the SNOW and not the ACTUAL ICE. There's nothing good about this map except you could play TTT rounds, ignoring the quality of the rounds.
