Why does everyone play the same 4 maps all day long?!
So I been playing crossfire since I was like 13 and back in the old crossfire days the players were more diverse when it comes to the maps they selected.
I miss the original new maps that they had come out like THE MINE, DESERT STORM, SANTORIA and more.
Now a days I log on and all I see is the same maps for TDM & S&D and quiet frankly its annoying me.
Seeing SHIP and EGPYT in every channel for a TDM makes me want to rip the hair out of my scalp. Sometimes I want to play a little POWERPLANT or even MONACO, but its not how it use to be RIP good maps.
Whenever I would create a room with "GOOD MAPS" I would only max about 7 or 8 people and it would never fill up.; after the game is finished I would switch to another "GOOD MAP" and people would start to leave and then
the cycle would repeat I only max around 7-8 players, but then when I made a knife only SHIP game, NO surprise the noobs showed up and spoiled my party with a 14/16 join ratio >:( -woooow...
As for S&D do you know how sick I am of seeing the words EAGLEEYE and BLACKWIDOW? These new CF players are some of the most basic headed people I ever encountered, playing the same 4 maps is no fun in a game.
-I love crossfire and all its players but you guys need to broaden your horizon when it comes to your selection of maps.

I know the feel. Some people just stick to the same map, same people, same guns the entire time. And I mean to a degree I get it...you know one map really well or maybe it's the best designed map....but personally I find it gets boring fast. S&D is almost always Eagle Eye anymore unless snipers only then you might see New Greece or Festival, Ghost Mode has almost always been strictly Lab, HMXs are mostly Rooftops, TDMs is Egypt, FFA is usually Eagle Eye as well. I'm a big fan of the Random map though sadly it often times picks those maps as the first map too....and then in TDM you sometimes hit those maps that have weird special rules or are knifes only.
but hey...what do you do? Other than more events by the GMs that get the community playing maps that aren't as often played which will only last as long as the events though. -
REALLY? lol show me if u have a link lol
Here is the link: http://forum.z8games.com/showthread.php?322795-Dead-maps
To me, it's due to the smaller player base. Less people playing means less variety of maps played. Starting one of those unpopular maps is in itself a challenge. -

In CFQQ it is even worse, SHIP TD and BW SD in everyroom. -

You forgot Castle.
Didn't know there was more than 4 maps in this game tho.

U can always trick them, invite them in the room, and put the map eagle eye for sd, and egypt for td, and then change to random map, or map u like,
but some or most will leaving, cause they dont know these maps, i dont know why they are lazy to try the old maps, egypt? cause most are egy guys? i dont like egy map in fact.
Well for me, i want to see more games of shadow, at least u can find games of sd and td easy, but shadow they are almost dead, and maybe spy mode thats more dead than shadow, what other modes are dead? thats why they make cool events to wake up those maps again, + daily mission wake those shadow or spy from time to time, and wave mode is already not alot games of it as well, thats it for now, if i remember something i will say it later -

EagleEye, Castle and Egypt are possibly the worst maps you could get in game.
Idk man, Egypt was my favorite map when I started CF in 2009, I was mostly playing that with my K1A and being on the sides and watching the other team pass by me without noticing me (like lmao, it is such a LARGE map.....) ahhh, those were the best times. -
im so sick and tired of seeing nothing but rooftops and merida in the mutation modes especially rooftops that map is so boring. i really miss port.
They're the easiest maps in my opinion. Not much parkour skills required. Probably why everyone plays just those maps. 0.0 -

Agree, + maybe cause most are brainless and they dont want to try new or old maps
Well this remind me of CS, that they play all time (De dust 2) map all the time, even i try the CS online only few time with some old version of CS that i was having -

Oh wow, good luck btw if your planning new events make sure to include maps such as the forgotten ones like train love that map and Mexico -

It just seems to me that people are probably just unwilling to move out of their comfort zone when it comes to maps. People like to stick with the things they are familiar with, and bribing people to play the underplayed maps with Events most likely won't change such an ideology.
A very interesting case would be Castle, which was INSANELY popular back when those Glitchspots were rampant, and with how long said Glitchspots were around, people probably became familiar with the map, and it remains a map which you can find every now and again nowadays.
So unless you happen to bring out an event for a single map which lasts 2 Months or so, anything else will just artificially inflate the Player numbers until the Event is over.
But hell, Humans are fickle beings, so perhaps having an event or two dedicated to some maps might just do the trick regardless.hi GM my acc take baan from uk4 please unbaan idont have any hack Name:Imaster.? un baan Gm please ???
It's probably best if you send in a Support Ticket, as none of us here can help ya. -

A simple thing would be integrating the unplayed maps into the daily missions. It may not get a big punch, but it's for sure a start imo. -
