The Sub-Forums for the Other Gamesforum have been changed.
After some discussion we have decided to take down the H1Z1 sub-forum, all the posts from there have been moved into the General Games Discussion sub-forum.
In return, we have created 2 new sections:
PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds
Fortnite
Along with this we have also decided to revive the old Minecraft section as we want to keep sub-forums that are associated with our community events.
I did make a joke thread in the Surf section I was originally going to make here but didn't want it to get removed, so click here for that thread.
While I did have fun making that thread, I actually think this map is absolute dog shit and would like to raise some actual arguments for why it should be removed
The map's far too small
No-one uses the surf ramps on the map except to get the awp and to gain speed, it's not like ski where people are constantly in the air battling it out.
It basically is just a combat bhop map and I feel it's boring and too small/simple to be an actual surf map.
I know it's in bad taste to just demand a map be removed that's popular and people actually play (for some reason), so a compromise would be to rename it to bhop_bigloop which I would genuinely love to see happen but is unrealistic.
Hey fetuses! CHEF for another god-like suggestion.
This may sound really dumb at first, but I've got a killer idea that will most definitely improve the surf server and create an influx of players from another game type.
What game type is that you may be wondering...
Bhop of course!
For a while now there has been talk of Invex getting into a new server, and it has been highly requested for the server to be a bhop one.
I can actually see the appeal in this considering that most people on this server have no motor skills since they're underdeveloped and haven't started going through puberty yet, so holding spacebar doesn't require too much concentration or intelligence.
However this has been shut down every time because there are too many bhop servers in OCE already, so it doesn't make sense to create another one and there's no VIP money from bhop.
But what if I told you that Invex actually already has a bhop server!
"Sir Cheffery, I believe you're mistaken, or I already would've paid $200 for head admin by now!"
I know, I know, Mum has to keep her credit card in a safe now (but you know the code anyway) and I may have told a little lie, because while it isn't exactly a bhop server, surf may as well be because of this one map
surf_bigloop_go_r3!
I honestly think this is the best bhop combat map ever created, but I think that it needs some changes to bring in a new demographic to Infantvex
To really make it the bhop map it really is, there needs to be a couple of structural changes to the map, specifically:
The surf ramps on the sides need to be deleted so it becomes purely bhop, none of this surfing crap
Delete the spawns, have everyone spawn in random places on the map or drop in from the sky
Just have the cylinder in the middle be a speed boost and when you get to the top have an AWP there.
These changes will unleash the true potential of the map make it go a lot faster
I can already hear the high-pitched cries "B-b-b-but Sir Cheffery, how does this bring in new players?!?!"
Which bring me to my next suggestion for the map, a much needed name change from surf_bigloop_go_r3 to...
bhop_bigloop_invex
With the new changes and altered playstyle of the map in the future (and even now) this map is not really a surf map, so it's fitting to change the name so it says bhop
This will also help with the new demographic, as when searching for a bhop server in the map filter of the community server browser. How?
They'll see a map they've never seen before, join, play a couple of maps and before you know it we'll have a couple more PaidminsTM
We'll chuck in the old invex tag so we know it's unique to our server(fuck off kayzeegay this is my idea)
And I'm also choosing to remove the r3 from the end because it might seem kind of pointless. You're probably wondering why it's even there, aren't you, little naive Invexian. Well, I finally have the answer.
For reasons I cannot explain other than brain damage or mental illness, people actually nominate and then vote for this map. Pretty crazy right?
I figured out the r3 actually means that the map gets voted in after 3 maps because of the map cooldown.
Byte, looking at the statistics. scratching his head and wondering "what the fuck is wrong with these dumb kids?" And then he remembered "eh, whatever they give me money." So he quickly changed the name of the map and got back to making veteran mugs.
Which brings me to my final suggestion, which is a complete rehaul of the rtv system so that when bigloop is finally off the 3 map cooldown and rtv comes up, it is the only option that's on the menu, because it'll get voted in anyway so it doesn't matter if it might as well be the only map there for convenience sake.
This plugin gave any player 1 taser on a 10 second cooldown if they used !taser
It also had a secret command to give admins a taser whenever using the secret command !z1
If you believe the taser command should still be a thing, discuss it here letting us know the best way to implement it and a new plugin will be made for it.
