"well im not the one who plays regularly so you guys do whatever you feel is right, i've just always hated random changes being made to anything for no reason other than the sake of change". You asked for opinion, I gave ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Oki
@Lotus , this is what i find very frustrating.
You keep saying I keep changing things for the sake of change, and that all the changes I do are unnecessary. If you see above to
the post where I have the updated marbble version, you see a list of reasons for the changes I have made. I don’t explain in detail why I have done them, but that is because anyone who know the map knows why these are good fixes.
Also, when I update a map I usually gather all sorts of information and personal experiences from me and others so I can fix as much as possible at once. That is so we do not end up with 14 versions of the same map and constant uploading and downloading too/from the servers. Other small fixes I do, are finding flaws in the map itself. Especially if the mapmaker is not that good. We are talking about walls that goes inside walls, bad optimization, leaks and other stuff. So, again I have very good reasons for the changes I do. Infact, marbble are one of those maps I had to rebuild from the ground because the original was so bad it was impossible to work on. zm_rush_final is also a map I helped LosT make and optimize. And its still a mess and that is why I keep doing small fixes when I find issues.
What you and
@Havoc (it seems) don’t understand is that most of these changes you will never notice because it has nothing to do with gameplay, except making it smoother and gaining fps.
When I do make changes to a campspot it is with good reason. That Van have been the source of much trouble and its not very good. And, it must be replaced by something, right? Or its one less campspot. Again, this is a GOOD REASON for changing it. Its not something I do randomly because I feel like changing something. Not only that, I ALWAYS testplay the map with other admins so I know if there are issues and things needs changing/removing, then I upload.
At last, ofcourse you should have your own opinion. And I love feedback on maps, but then I expect them to actually have played them and tested that the opinion they have, hold merit. Nothing is random, everything is tested if it doesn’t work we change/remove it. That is how mapmaking work.
PS:
The only changes that should be happening from this are to the crates. End of story, anything past that is unnecessary and I guarantee people are going to complain
What crates are you talking about?
