Tram

[old.Franbo]

Alas I don't have time to ramble on about what I think about the map in detail so I'll have to leave that to someone with more time on their hands.

That said... I am curious to know what other people think... seems like it has a good dynamic going from the few games I've tried so far.

it is shit... nuff said.

I think it rocks. I get lost a lot, but when you put it next to a map like ice, its great.

Ice is really shit.

My Main concern is on how long before the league want it as still alot of people still get very very lost on it so wudnt it be great playing a map that noone knows what or where to go

 

[old.Ghost]

yer, its big, but it does rock.

A few of the league servers have been running tram only inbetween leage times recently and the Barry's world Objective 4 public server (213.221.174.170:28963) is going to be changed over from running custom maps to tram only for a while as well.
People should have plenty of time to get used to the new map.
Im not sure how soon it will be played in the league.

it's a horrid horrid map.

Well, in my opinion it's a good map, but it's oriented to bigger teams and not 6v6 wars. I think it's a "preparation" for the up coming addon. Who knows

 

[old.{D2A}Trebor]

althought it is a huge map, it is still very feasible to play it as 6v6. because the map is over 2 parts really, each part being about as big as beach.

The first part is get to the doc door and blow it, the second part is get to the transmitter (which i still cant find ) and transmit them.

We have set our server to tram only a few times now, and its almost always full when that happens. I think the new map is great, but to be honest its been great with 10v10, i dont know what it will play like with 6v6....

However i do enjoy it, and any new map has got to be good... as to when they introduce it to the league... dunno its a bit soon, some teams will be very sorted and have tactics etc already, but some will get caught out, maybe for next season?

Yes even though the map is very big, I hope we do play it in the League as it is fine for a 6v6. It only has 2 ways to get to the primary objectives from any position on the map (the trams or mountainside), and it is easy to cover those two places without losing visibility or having players scattered too thinly.

The only place where things get a little too "unprdeicatable" is when the allies have blown the castle secondary door and can go about 4 different routes to the objective. But good tactics will make sure that the Allies can never reach this position anyway!

Barry's world Objective 4 public server (213.221.174.170:28963)
Has now been changed over and is running the tram map only.

Thats good, it will give us some dedicated practise time without having to resort to the madness that is 20v20 on jolt 1!

Maximum players are probably 12v12, although optimum is around 8v8 I'd say
