King of the Train.

Think something's terrific? Think something sucks? Rant and rave here. This is a definite "Keep it civil" area, folks. We will be enforcing common courtesy.

Indeed, if a few people start asking for it, I will start an mapvote to King of the Train on request.

Same goes for any map that is, or isn't on the mapcycle.

Every time I've played it, spawncamping occurred. The last time however, I put a sentry up in front of our spawn. It got destroyed twice, but overall, I got 43 kills off of it. People were running from their spawn straight to our's to camp before I finally got fed up and put the sentry there. Also, sentries by the tracks kind of ruins things as it kills everyone when they go by. I dunno. It was fun, but had it's horrid moments. Overall, it's a shitty map but can be fun with a good crowd.

Mhnm.

I could see if as a serious map if it was made BIGGER, perhaps with the two teams spawning at stations across the map from each other, origin symmetry. (Basically, rotate 180 degrees.)

But I don't.. consider it a serious map. I consider it an excuse for me to go scout and just flail the bat wildly while running around like a headless chicken. xD

The map tastes like a beta. FFFFF REVERSE DOOR.
But yeah, a turret or two in front of your own door makes a huge difference.
A peeve i hate about the map is the train sometimes doesn't want to let you off of it---due to the clunky track pathing you might get glitched on it even though you could have sworn you just jumped off and started to run off.

A few times I caught about 3 engineers from the other team putting a sentry directly in front of the opposite spawn door. Unacceptable---good thing it was still swapping out on the level 3 upgrade and got nuked.

Just a tiiiny note for all the complaints about aesthetic/functionality issues with the map...

We did not make this. :)

If you are pining for changes to it, I suggest you take it up with the map creator. < http://www.fpsbanana.com/maps/63024 >

We just host the things.
