Well it seems to be time to fill more gaps in the summer, and who doesn't want more good maps in the NSL seasons(and gathers)? Well thats what we have the Custom Map Cup for, to test custom maps to see if they are viable for comp play and to give feedback to the map creators so the maps can be improved.
This custom map cup will start on Saturday the 25th of July and will be going on for 2 weekends(until 2nd of august). The format of this cup will be decided by the amount of teams that sign up for it and to allow each team to play as much as possible. You can also request formats in your replies to this topic.
So on to the maps, all these maps are still being worked on:
ns2_Caged - Made by Flaterectomy, used to be in the NSL but was taken out after sudden changes. Most of the players should have already played on this map at least once, in its younger days.
ns2_Fracture - Made by Howser, hasn't been touched in a couple of weeks but howser is willing to get back to it. Looks like a great map to play on, I played some pcws on it when it was still pretty early in development and I loved it.
ns2_Prison - Made by Vert^, I haven't heard a lot about this map but flate recommended it to me since it is being worked on, which is good since the creator might use the feedback we give him.
ns2_Docking2 - Made by Mephilles, who doesn't want an improved version of the official map ns2_docking? I heard lots of good things about this map so lets get this tested out!
If the new build comes out before the cup starts and Derelict is released, it will be added to the pool to test how viable it is in comp play.
I decided to leave out nexus and mineral, unless people request it here( and actually play in the cup) I will not be adding those 2 maps to the map pool. If you have any other map requests I will be happy to include them if the creator is still interested in working on the map(or if someone else can take over mapping instead of the creator).
The matches will be on Saturday(25th), Sunday(26th), Saturday(1st) and Sunday(2nd). The matches for Sunday the 1st may be played somewhere in the week between the 26th of july and 1st of august as long as they get planned. The match on Sunday the 2nd of august may be played until the Friday(7th) after that. The matches on Saturday may be planned at different times but they have to be played on that day.
Sign-ups are open so don't forget to sign up!
if you do not participate in the Custom Map Cup, your opinion might not be taken into consideration when new maps for the next season are decided.
