Why not say De_Dust2 while we are at it...

But yes, I would have to agree with the souls who mentioned Facing Worlds from the original UT :)

I think that was a carryover from SoF1 because they had raven office on the original too

jpnctf and irqctf from SoF1 (Playin since the Demo released in 1999)

If you want good mp play with "modern/still played" games try cs servers that have 12 people or less. Better yet try them with cal rules...





I love the word "nubification" and I do agree with you on that point. I guess that a new generation or mind set has joined the ranks with older gamers.

I do feel that MP gaming is still great but has lost a little something. Maybe it is our constant demand for more GFX, vehicles, etc... But virtually no one complains about the lack of gameplay. For example Doom 3. The entire community was hyped over the preview of it's gfx. You never saw one thread, post or article previewing gamplay.

Publishers are in business to make money, so if gfx sales games well... :confused:

In other words 10 years ago the pc gaming industry and community had more of an emphasis on gameplay or the detailed layout of an MP map. Well now it's all about the GFX for the most part. Our MP maps look like a dream but play like :mad:

lol j/k. de_dust2, the cow level from diablo 2 (I'm counting that as multiplayer since everyone used to run it non-stop on b.net.)
 
Well from HL: TFC
2nd would be 2Fort/HL: TFC

Perfect balance of maps. I ran a TFC Clan/Server and we would leave Well on for hours on end. Let people rack up 100's of kills for the fun of it.

There were a ton of places to camp from. We'd use it as a Deathmatch map and would scoff when people came in to cap flags. We'd start hunting them down and use them as target practice.

I got so good as a sniper in that map I could hit Scouts/Soldiers that would EMP/Rocket through the air over the middle tunnel. Upping the gib levels and watching parts fly!
 
Dangerous Crossing, and Katabatic from Tribes 2 -- could always find a filled server with these maps.
Deck 16/17 from UT series, i also like ONS-Dawn for some reason
de_dust2, also a fan of de_aztec CS:S


Ive seen the newbification of MP FPS games as well, just look at Tribes: Vengence :(

de_aztec..... so one sided, dont think I've ever played or seen a match where the team who started as CT didnt win that.
 
garden of war was easily one of the best war2 maps going. we made pooltable (exactly as thought), but that was the best war map going. then add plains of snow. I beat 6 players (the 7th player sat doing nothing to get multi and the use of walls)

action quake: winter, highrise, teamjungle, deepcanyon...the list goes on

yeah it is one sided but i always seem to have fun playing that map for some reason.
 
UltraViolence.

Quake1 map that was released by a gaming site called mplayer... fast paced and only the most power full weapons (GL RL and LG) in a small space but had multiple levels of height. fun fun fun...
 
Leavanworth Prison - Americas Army.....most fun you can have.....

That's a fun map- the only way for T to win is a rush to one site and some *super* teamwork- hardly happens on a pub server
 
Actually, there was a map that was even more one-sided...as_oilrig. Good luck winning on CT unless you've got some amazing teamwork.
 
Good thread, brought back memories of maps I haven't played in a long long time.

1) Athletes Village from the original Rainbow 6. (I love every map from r6, but AV the most)
2) The map with 2 floating bases from Tribes
3) de_inferno (Non-steam version)
 
goldeneye - facility. prox mines in the boiler room and in the urinals = win.

Bunker from Rogue Spear!!!

and I'm trying to remember the name of this awesome q2ctf map.....grrr, I can't remember. But I love it.
 
Quake 1 - Village. It was a tiny map with a set of houses one end, some hills and a boat at the other. It was not well made but it just clicked as a fun map to play.

CS:S - Got to be Dust... very predictable

UT 99 - The assult map with the boat was always a good laugh.

Quake 3 - the small dm map with the bridges between two sides and rail guns (can't remember its name, its the one with Klesh as the opponent I think).

Quake 3 Team Arena - the HUGE map with canyons and castles

HL2 - the prison map. I love killing people with a kitchen sink...

That will do for now....

Actually I preferred being CT and VIP on that map, there were multiple ways to get out and around and i have escaped quite a few times.. just have to be cautious...

Of course it helps if your teammates actually defend the VIP and escort you to the helicopter, but I wouldn't say anything amazing is needed...
 
It looks like vintage Quake, UT and HL or some variant are considered the best map(s) EVER!

I see a good mixture of stock and costom MP maps as well.

Very interesting, hardly any current maps at all


I think that it's time for some UT & Quake Source :eek:
 
Without thinking too much, I'll say Dredwerkz (sp?) from Quake3Arena.
 
Another vote for "Fuel Dump". ET, while old, still remains the most played internet FPS i have. Simply a superbly made map. Very balanced, and emphasizes team work. My kind of map. :)
 
Ooooops I forgot about UT November, & HL1 Stalkyard. I used to love to crawl into that vent and look down. When someone would run underneath me, I would shoot them in the head from above. hehehe :p
