I'd be down to play on that updated hs

Anyone wanna try to edit ec or Apollo's to make them fresh? Like champs kr?

The one thing I didn't like from the sbs on my map is the south flank under the bottom ridge. I felt like colly got there too fast which gave them another advantage over titan, which is what I was trying to eliminate. Thinking of ways to keep that flank but not make it burdensome on titan.

hate to change the discussion cause i think this is important but to emp's point, what about two matches a sunday for double round robin, most people already warm up for an hour

Chris I liked the path but you're right maybe try to curve the path so Titan gets there faster?

Think the flank route going to south mesa from J is a bit to far. Maybe shorten that up a bit but I like the idea.

I wouldn’t bother, Emp. I made a minor change to SL one season and everyone still bitched, despite two successful and active seasons. I think the issue is more that people keep coming back because they enjoy the gameplay for what it is. SL got boring and stale towards the end but people liked v2 and flags and didn’t want those things to change.

You could always create a second league that runs in the USL off-season with some of these ideas.

I’m surprised a version of NMLTL doesn’t play well here with the size of the current population. I feel like it’s the perfect league for the current state of the game. Maybe I don’t get it since I don’t play anymore.

Nmltl was awful

As much as I loved playing NML I can't imagine playing a league of nothing but snipers and naders in trees. Oh and in the bunkers can't forget that.

Could try a mini SL season with 4-6 squads either player made or drafted. Run maybe 3-4 weeks while S18 is worked on.

Well I'm mostly just interested in bringing in some different maps than what we currently play on and having a longer season than ~6 weeks.

Everything else I am kind of whatever about.

Looks like flag(s) doesn't have much support as expected.

I agree 6 weeks is short, but activity dies as the season goes on. Too long of a season means the last few weeks are a ghost town with noone sbing

For what it's wortg Emp, I liked all of your ideas except for the low number of maps. With a longer season (which is much needed), you need the freshness of different maps and they can be played twice each.

A longer season allows improvement on close matches and favored maps with the same teams.

Well I think I'd also like to see fewer maps because

KR - favors SW spawn too much
EC - always fighting south
Apollo - favors SW spawn too much
Icstos - favors SE spawn too much

So my main thought is to shelve those maps, but then we don't have many maps left over imo, which means using fewer maps.

Ideally we'll test out HS's jungle book map and Champ's KR this upcoming offseason

But the number of maps is ultimately also a whatever thing for me. I was suggesting 2 maps mostly as a compromise for the idea if the community did want to try a flag type objective. You play everyone on a TDM map, then you play everyone on a flag map. Seemed like it made the most sense to me if we added a flag(s).

It does honestly feel weird to change maps every week... especially when most of you agree that a few of those maps aren't balanced or that they are boring and over played. But I'm whatever when it comes to that.

The advantages on EC and Apollo are not that great depending on side.
