What's up with 2fort?

o_mescalito · 02-09-2006, 06:33 PM

Why no one's redoing it? This map is classic (was pretty popular when TFC came out). I havn't played TFC for more then 5 years. Was it banned along the way?

o_docwolfe · 02-09-2006, 06:45 PM

it is being done, it just hasn't been started yet afaik. Look in the super map list thread.

o_mescalito · 02-09-2006, 06:52 PM

uhh cool. hope it's get released in the first beta wave then..

o_beetle · 02-09-2006, 07:58 PM

It wouldn't feel right unless 2fort was the absolute first map on the first realsed map pack.

o_ma|2io · 02-09-2006, 10:20 PM

True^ I hate 2fort and I agree with that. It wouldnt be the same

o_mescalito · 02-09-2006, 10:57 PM

that bad huh?

EDIT: bleh O_o either i misunderstood you both or it's just Ma|2io who missunderstood beetle

the only reason i see not liking the map is becouse it was abused to death like servers with 2fort 24/7 ( aka de_dust in cs 1.6 and de_dust2 in source)..

o_beetle · 02-09-2006, 11:44 PM

no, i think he did that on purpose trying to twist what i was saying. ya know, how he agrees with me but for a different reason.

o_darknight · 02-09-2006, 11:49 PM

Arr. I cant say I'm overly fond of 2fort - but it has to be there.

o_mescalito · 02-09-2006, 11:49 PM

Off topic: You read a lot of Don Juan, I take it? Yaqui Sorcerors and such?

o_mescalito · 02-10-2006, 12:14 AM

Yea i'v been reading Kastaneda's books at some point. Ripped the nickname from there.

o_ivaqual · 02-10-2006, 01:00 AM

Isn't it Castaneda ?

o_mescalito · 02-10-2006, 01:56 AM

We have Defrag's RMF, so, the conversion process will be relatively simple.

I think the biggest hold up is waiting on textures. I mean, it's "basically" already done in that we have the brushwork and all that shit from Defrag's 2fortk2k4 or whatever it's called RMF, but we just need to port it over.

Oh, and take out his waterway system, it's retarded.

o_nezumi · 02-10-2006, 06:05 AM

And maybe add in some fun? That's what I felt was missing from the original.

(P.S. Please make sure it's still possible to stuff yourself up in the rafters in the flagroom)

trepid_jesse · 02-10-2006, 06:13 AM

and bigger respawns, goooood damn, they're smallness is annoying as hell when there's 16 people on a team.

**mervaka** · 02-10-2006, 09:57 AM

the 'dropdown' entrance is quite annoying, too. stick a laser and a trigger_hurt in there to give enemies a hard time getting out of there. i used that way in and out all too often to infect snipers from behind..

Yes, that would be nice.

I actually managed to lose a flag, during a clanmatch, in the rafters. Everyone was rather confused for a while when I started swearing nonstop. Well, more than usual.

o_nezumi · 02-11-2006, 01:39 AM

The only way I've found to have fun on 2fort (besides RJ-ing onto the battlements and killing snipers all day) is to put a 2-man engi lockdown on the flag. Just build 2 SGs, teleporters going to and from the nearby supply room, and a dispenser on the flag and in one of the doors. Then you boost eachother into the rafters with grenades and wait with your finger on the 'det dispenser' button.
