Any chance of getting this?

Already on our server. Ask an admin to put it on since its not in rotation.

I'll have to keep that in mind. Except for Bhack, he screws up the server when he messes with things

Banned.

We played this yesterday. I thought it was pretty nifty but, of course, you have your naysayers who instantly hate anything that we haven't played 100 times already.

I don't feel it really added a whole lot to the map itself though, in fact it made me realize PL as a gametype doesn't really add much to the game. The only part that felt 'bad' or amateurish was between 2-1 and 2-2 (I think) the cart goes through a cave which isn't really wide enough to support a cart and players fighting around it.

This isn't a very good map. I don't know how taking dustbowl and making it more frustrating for the attacking team is supposed to be fun, but it really wasn't last night. I'd be content to never play it again.

I hated it not because it was something new, because it's not, but because it's a lame hackjob of a stock map that's neither interesting or at all innovative.

I don't see how it was all that frustrating or difficult to attack on. Blue made it to the last point and red won it all. Plus, there is a cool ending cinematic!

I don't think it was supposed to be "innovative." It was just a stock map with a twist. There is only like 4 or 5 core maps for this game, so I think changing things up and trying out new stuff is cool!
