I like the really big map. Whatchu guys think? This is a fun server, not too be taken seriously so a custom map really is not needed.

Slight issue here. The Roms and the Klingons don't have a neutral zone with eachother. They have a shared border. That's it.

I like the big one too, should be doable.

Do the big one.
Gives me more space to hide in.

You would want to hide, Hexx.

Please, you have any idea of how many "elites" I'm going to have coming after me for rematches?
I'll never have time to get anything done

Smaller one. Increases PvP.

Josh, I believe the map is straight F&E, thus the seperation.

PvP good. Medium map.

Large as hell map, Hex Dvs of 1-5, planets at 5-30 DV, destroyable bases, lots of em.......

With the big map, DVs will be relatively low, like 5 for most hexes and yes bases will be destructable.

I'd say about four hexes ought to do it. That's all that ever gets used anyway.

I believe having more hexes with low DVs will hopefully change that. I'm a trench-warrior myeslf but I have to admit that gets a little dull.

Low DVs and destructable bases should make things interesting, which is why I would like the try the larger map.

Nah, just seeing a server crash from 30 people hitting the same hex is making me think about trying a different approach.

good point, I say larger map, but set movement to 3 and leave draft radius at 0.

IMO, the worst part of a large map the the tedium of traversing from one hotspot to another.

Besides, although you can move 3, you can still move 1 or 2 per jump.

I am sorry, no way am I going to do a server with 2-3 hex movement with destructable bases. LB5 was retarted like that.

Commander Maxillius · « **Reply #16 on:** December 05, 2004, 02:36:39 pm »

oh well, 'twas just an idea.

maybe with a draft radius of 1?

FPF-DieHard · « **Reply #17 on:** December 10, 2004, 11:57:52 pm »

So medium map, 20 DV hexes?
