Thats still not a reason for developers to work on something like that. Its almost 50% each. There SHOULD be a huge difference between YES and NO.
I know but as you know there are more people not active on this forum. Might be the same for no voters. Whatever, it was just an idea.

Seems like the majority of admins/mods doesn't like the idea.

You know.. I hope you all get my point. There's a simple boat on capsize, showing off that the servers are also capsizing. I've been told of that long ago, and I somehow I agreed and disagreed at the same time, agreed because I could appreciate how we were losing players from our community and not random players, we were losing our "all time" players, like if they had enough of playing it, or either because they couldn't play due to scripts that used to kick them and therefore not being able to play.. anyway, let's set this apart. I don't want any offense taken here, it's an objective view, server went improving and growing as the time was passing, new scripts, new interfaces, new forums.. and I really liked these changes, I could appreciate how my most enjoyable server to play was changing to good. Until, like all of the sudden it started to become something boring and then stand there watching how many of the people you knew and you used to enjoy a lot playing with them were leaving. Mappers.. some mappers who used to take effort making their maps, and taking their time to make them, either if it took one week, and then enjoy it without conveniences, their maps were liked by most, and disliked by haters, they didn't have to deal against map managers because their maps were being deleted. Now it really looks like these mappers who have bunch of maps all of the sudden, those mappers who didn't even have a map 3 months ago, now the server is full of them. Do you want to know the reason? it's pretty simple, what we used to call effort now it's hurry up, mate! With that expression I want to show off how mappers lost the concept of taking time, of putting effort into their work; some mappers want to start a map and finish it as fast as possible, then upload it and start a new other to let themselves be known on the server. But you either do your job very fast, decently and end up as a hero, or do it fast, without effort and end up as a villain. Most of these mappers who create a bunch of maps in a day or in a week usually get many maps deleted, since it's just.. bad, no other adjectives are needed.. they are really simple, with parts where people get stuck or bugged due to the loose person who does not even test their own maps before uploading it, then these mappers get triggered by getting their maps deleted. The concept of maps is one of the most popular and most talked, and it might not seem an important thread, but for sure it is, without maps it's like a person without eyes, everything's black, no maps are avaliable to load on a server, so it's pointless. Deathmatch.. oh, that gamemode that many people likes now, and I won't disagree with that, I like DM. In fact, it was the first gamemode I used to play and enjoy. But what happened there? some people tried to fit this gamemode into a server that wasn't for that, most of the players can't finish a DM map.. WHY? OH GOD TELL US WHY? because they like destruction derby, never the same, shooter; simple gamemodes that don't require many skills, neither it's about skills, it's about having fun, the concept of calling yourself pro because you can finish DM is hypocrite, and also applies to NTS, my favourite gamemode, it's about luck and having two hands, come on.. because this server wasn't made for that, neither I'd agree with the famous map 'A Great Adventure' but if you want to know the real thing behind this map is the battle between me and @besweeet, it's only about that, without him I would actually be AFK like I do on every new DM map that is being uploaded. A brief review of all what I said.. this server was meant to have fun, not to be skilled, a place where casual players can play peacefully, and either for those who really like it and decide to stay, just like me and many others. Maps used to take author's effort, now it's about re-upload a DM and add your name or finishing it as fast as possible. I don't blame your idea, @r0cK, there always have to be ideas, but I just found the perfect moment to say what's happening. I won't talk about the race server, although it seems to be alright, dunno at all, race players might know that better than me. I've certainly stopped enjoying what old days used to be, and I'm sure many others who I know as well.
After all of this bible written, either way if you've read it or not, I hope you get the point. Apologies in advance for those who always hate opinions and disagree with everything that isn't their opinion. (doesn't mean it has to be you, so calm your tits down).
I've gone through your bible writing and I'm not sure what your opinion about bad maps is related to my new gamemode topic. Also if you read briefly through my suggestion on the end of the topic you can see I stated to make DM-Based maps which are enjoyable and " easy " to be played by a bunch of people. Not only the pro's who might finish these maps.
My idea is just to bring fun maps; ( as wallrides and loopings are fun ) to the MIX server with checkpoints to respawn. That way new people can practice during their journey and don't have to wait the whole map to spectate the ones going to the finish.
I like the effort of your opinion but in my eyes it has nothing to do with my topic suggestion.
Greetings.

I see. I think the name of your mode is what threw me off as parkour didn't really fit. Perhaps call it "DMR" - "Deathmatch: Race."
Sounds better and less confusing yes, going to rename the mode.

Isnt this same as I wanna find my destiny on race server, u have CPs and its DM
Yes, but as BesWeet said I need to rename this mode to Deathmatch: Race. The maps from Destiny are parcours, I'm talking about DM based maps with checkpoints without hunter and a finish checkpoint.

20 minutes ago, MegasXLR said:
you just drive in the FINISH checkpoint just as you would in Race or NTS.:). @r0cK just wants a seperate place for that kind of maps, not to put them in RTF.
@besweeet yes, read the whole thing again, seems like you don't quite get the idea of it. It's not DM like I explained already in this post. There are more people to finish this... It's the same mode as race but based in maps they use in DM servers.

So far 7 people voted YES and 3 NO. Can we let the democracy speak. Would be nice if any manager could give some feedback on this. @Flipper @BlueYoshi97

Yes do this, sounds fun

Especially when high and head-banging to some metal rofl.
Small places like ours makes a great intimate atmosphere I think... chick magnet

200€ for that chair u got? Oh sweet Jesus this is not given!
So you bump into things with your head alot hmmmm... Maybe move those things lol. And not a real piano but a synth. Although I have a real guitar next to it. But I can't play it

Well, I don't really have a setup or anything. I use my dad's pc (iMac) and thats it ^^ and its in the living room xD AND I'm alone in the house for few days so the place is kinda dirty ^^ I must admit nice room you got.
Haha, same here before. My girlfriend and me cleaned my room completely and since she left I'm keeping it clean to thank her for all her work. It was really crazy. BTW I did my TV upgrade today.

That's a pretty good reason to clean it up.. but still I'm gonna pass
Nice room btw
Haha that's why I did, cleaned up like a week ago. Thanks, I bought a Philips Hue lamp to sync it with my ambilight tv. That way instead of orange lights in the corners it will fade with my tv. So excited

Its not driving me crazy or anything. RTF can't be mixed with DM. If managers have other opinion on that then I won't say a thing and do what they say
If Flipper/Yoshi wants DM to be added I won't say no, but I won't take responsibilty of it in the future if players do topics for deleting DM maps (Just like now doing topics to add DM).
Same thing with Hunter mode. A lot of players want it back now. Back in the days no one did.
I can follow your opinion but therefore you guys map managers are here. - if - PTF might be added in the future make sure you only accept the easy, mid range DMbased maps. That way newbies can practice and eventually finish the maps after a few times. That way RTF can be RTF again and the confusing between DM and RTF is history.

Personally I like the bit of diversity these DM and skill maps give to the race server and if it gets too hard or there is a different reason the map managers can decide on deleting it. So I wouldn't be in favor of removing them from the race server, although I believe the map lengths could be shortened drastically as I mentioned in the other topic to prevent players from failing 10 minutes before the map ends.
Personally myself I like them too but it was just a suggestion as DMbased maps are not going to be accepted in rtf anymore as easy as before as the map managers say '' RTF is not meant for DMbased maps '' therefore PTF could be a nice addition to play some oldschool easy dm maps and not confuse it with rtf anymore. As it is driving @Cena crazy.

Dear people,
Lately a lot is going on around the fact maps used for DM gamemodes are taking the upperhand in the race and mix server.
A lot of people are not happy with this fact so I came up with an idea which could solve all the controversy.
First of all I want to explain DM - DeathMatch to all of you
In this gamemode you are meant to do a parcours map without dying and catch a hunter on the end of the map.
If you didn't make it to the hunter you either died by failing the map or being shot by someone who shot you with that hunter.
In that case you are forced to spectate till the map ends and one player survived the map and vanished all other players alive.
Now I would like to introduce DM-Race which came up in my head since all the DM controversy
This gamemode is a mix of DM, RTF and Race gamemode.
Basically this gamemode is situated in the same maps made for DM, instead of 1 life during this map we work with checkpoints where you can respawn during the journey towards the finish.
Talking about a finish, this is also a difference compared with the DM gamemode. Instead of taking a hunter and killing all other living players you just drive in the FINISH checkpoint just as you would in Race or NTS.
If we could add this gamemode in the MIX server you could get rid of all DM-BASED maps in Race,RTF and move these maps to this DM-Race mode. This way Race can be the oldschool Race again and RTF can be RTF again as lately RTF begins to look like DM.
Maybe this is a good moment to make a poll and decide if we can get rit of a gamemode the majority of the players do not like and place DM-Race instead.
In short DM-Race looks like DM but made in RACE-GAMEMODE with DM-based maps and checkpoints without hunter on the end.
I also have the suggestion for the uploaded DM-Race maps which are based on DM maps, to keep these at a playe-able level and not make maps no-one can finish. Let's call it grade 1/easy-mediocre DM based maps to keep it fun for everyone and make the majority of the players to be able to finish the map.
*My idea is just to bring fun maps; ( as wallrides and loopings are fun ) to the MIX server with checkpoints to respawn. That way new people can practice during their journey and don't have to wait the whole map to spectate the ones going to the finish.
I made a stand-alone topic about this so we can keep a clean eye on everyone's feedback and opinions.
All feedback is welcome.

There is no DM Gamemode on the race server, what the fuck are you talking about? Please stop talking shit if you want us to help you.
That was my same thoughts too. They're confusing maps with a looping or a wallride with DM. People think a map is DM as soon a looping or wallride is included *sigh*. (atleast if I may believe Cena and Goldberg)
It has come so far that map managers won't accept any new rtf maps with a looping or wallride. They don't want DM on RTF but try to speak with them. They don't listen to us.. players

Dude its called defending. You'd probably hate the better CTF maps I have in mind xD
I just don't like the most of ctf maps as it's made by kids and is just crap. But that's my own opinion. There are people who like ctf and cargame.

I think a server with only the true DM mode wouldn't work. Unskilled players would just be spectating most of the map because they die early while the pro players do their thingy for another 5 minutes. It may be fun for a while but at the end I expect an inactive server with only a few pro's in it. I don't think its worth the effort of adding it to a new server (or multirooms).
Okay you have a point there, but last time YWA suggested DM with checkpoints which could solve this problem. Which is basically a map made for DM gamemode but turn it into a Racemode so you can respawn and continue to the finish. Yes I say finish because a hunter battle makes it DM again
In that way MultiRooms could be a nice addition. Or we keep mix with SH RTF DD and NTS and maybe add PTF(ParcoursToFinish) to the mix server.
*PTF - Basically the same as DM but instead of 1 life this parcours is with checkpoints - if - you die you respawn at last checkpoint and the finish is just a finish checkpoint instead of the Hunter in Dm
Especially when high and head-banging to some metal rofl.
