Well, Dicion is thinking about changing the maplist, so why don't we all help him out? Here are maps definately should be included :

- Blood Run
- Return to the Edge
- Abandoned Base
- Stormatorium
- Eternal Arenas
- Tokey's Towers
- Entryway

And some maps that might be worth checking out:

- Ironyard (though I know some of you hate it)
- Lost World
- Sinister Zone (which is basicly  the Dark zone but higjhly Q1 themed)
- Swiss Cheese Trickster (this one is rather 3+ players)
- The New house of Chton (good rumble expected)

And that's about it. Post your ideas. We need some diversity.

Iron Yard has been one of my favorite maps for years now. It's gotta be in. Slipgate - Wink

I second Jaq's maplist. Definately add in House of Cthon and Swiss Cheese too.

I like Ironyard too, Con. I'm doing pretty good on that map.  

Now, GamesKeeper, I think that we should choose only from the original mappacks. Since it wouldn't be good when someone new to Generations couldn't play on the offiicial server after downloading 170Mb of data.

I don't think q3hipdm1 and rtsindm1 are in original mappacks, or maybe I'm wrong?

I'm also not sure about Q3dm17. I just  hate when a strogg gets his hands on the rail gun and snipes everybody from a distance.

But as for Fragpipe, I think there might offer us some serious fraging....
Ahh... the sweet times of Q2....

Yes, House of Chthon (gen-qe1m7), Dunwich (ikzdm1), Iron Yard(fr3dm1) have to be in.  Let's add in The Flying Plutonians.  Yes, I know it isn't an "old-school" map, but if you've ever played it it's a very fun/insane map.  Let's see, what else:


gen-mykq1e1m2b1 Myk's Q1E2 map
ztn3dm1-ho Blood Run - High Octane (let's get some BFG fraggin goin!)
q3fraggel3ffa Swiss Cheese Trickster
myk_doom2 Mykul's Doom 2 map
gen-q2dm7 Got to love Slimy Place!
gen-q2dm1 Edge is always good.  I still prefer this version to Subzero's.
q3dm13 Lost World.  I love that map.

No... not  Dunwich  and Flying Plutonians....

Dunwich is a great map. It' s a great piece of work (I really like "the music room") but it doesn't work when it comes to usual saturday's games.. It's just too big. Instead of fraging I keep looking all over the place for other players.

As for Plutonians it's just too much jumping and flying and not enough actual fraging.

These are my absolute favorite maps:
- The Edge (I think everyone agrees on that one)
- Entryway
- The Slimy Place
- The Bad Place
- House of Chthon
Those five maps are guaranteed fun every time I play them. And then there are a couple of more maps I'd like to see in a rotation:
- myk_doom2
- The Abandoned Base
- Tokay's Towers
- Eternal Arena's
- Place Of Many Deaths (or something like that; I mean Castle's beautiful Quake1 map).

There's a glitch in 99c that keeps castle's map from even starting up. There's a limit to the number of entities that q3 can run at once, and castle's map, combined with gen, goes over the limit. The map wont even run, at this point.

I do believe phoenix is working on a fix though.

You COULD get it actually, it just took a running start. Doom was the one that had issues with it, jumping restrictions and all..
