Shields and/or mines?

Postby Duo on Sat Jul 04, 2009 11:39 pm

Would you guys want to see shields and/or mines in a new map? I personally like that cargo has no shields or mines. You don't have to worry about "oh shit this demo's probably going to spam me" or "oh shit the jan has a new shield" and you can just focus on the objectives or killing people.

But on the other hand, Hoth is the most popular map in NA and has both -- is it the map people love or the shields and mines?

As much as spam sucks, the two indisputable best siege maps (and most often played) are the most prominent in spam, because all in all, mines are fun, and so are shields.

All the different kinds of weapons imo make siege so fun.
GUARD!AN

–noun
1. guarding; protecting: a guardian deity.
2. a violent, tropical, cyclonic storm of the western North Atlantic, having wind
speeds of or in excess of 72 mph (32 m/sec).
3. (in Gnosticism) one of a class of powers or beings conceived as emanating
from the Supreme Being and performing various functions in the operations of
the universe.
4. a terrifying dream in which the dreamer experiences feelings of helplessness,
extreme anxiety, sorrow, etc.
5. The sensation and muscular spasm caused by an electric current passing
through the body or a body part.

new maps don't need mines. cargo has no mines, and does fine without them.

Mines: no
Shield: yes, but only if the map design doesn't allow a shield to completely block an objective (i.e. two or more paths to an objective)

I know this...

If you give one team fields, give the other team fields as well....

I think Hoth would be much more interesting if the Imps had fields.
