Anyone miss the beach invasion map?

(linkin90) #1

The beach invasion map was what got me into return to castle wolfenstein. I can always play that map and have so much fun! Does anyone else wish this map was in Enemy Territory? I miss the map, and think with all the enemy territory has to offer, it would be so awesome! Just because there is a new beach map, doesnt mean they shouldnt have the first one! The first one is way better in my opinion! Is there a way of putting in into the new game map makers? Please post if you wish the map was in Enemy Territory!!

I want beach invasion for ET!

Of course a few changes might be required. Maybe making the bunker door a team door instead of dynamite. This goes for the door at the war room too. Also make all mounted mg42 satchable so if they are destroyed, they must be rebuilt.

there was a rumour someone was going to copy it for ET

Or more realistic beach invasion, the whole map is flawed.

Everything past the wall should be lower down, its wide open for assualt by any ships or arty. You can arty everything.

It should have a long beach to wall part, dont get me wrong, beach is fun, but there is so much improvement, there should make a bunker maze map, like a oltl, where its just one big maze, and you have to det everything etc. Like hitlers bunker.

Maze maps suck, IMO. Although the idea of several barricades that have to be blasted sounds good :slight_smile:

I do miss the ducts. Yes, bring back the beach!

I think all the better RTCW maps should be translated over as is. Right now there are no good ET OLTL maps but that could probably be changed by using some of the old maps.

Oh god no… I am so sick of that god damn map. No offense to anyone that likes it, I’m not here to flame, just stating an opinion. I honestly can’t believe its played so much over and over and over again.

There has got to be at least 250 custom maps out there, and 90% of the RtCW servers are running beach almost constantly. What fun is there in playing the same thing over and over again? And to port it over to ET?! My god I disconnect from servers now when beach loads up.

I want so bad to rent a server and specifically remove that map form the pak file.

So you’re not addicted yet then? :wink:

Addicted? Severely, after hanging out on the Tram site and seeing the goodies of new maps. I like new corridors to frag in, find new hiding spots… Being surprised by an enemy hiding somehwere where I DON’T expect him. Its like almost a new game when you play a custom map.

Custom map servers rock baby!

I agree there were a lot of good custom maps out there, shame there wasnt enough ppl willing to play them. I found fun beach 2 far superior to the original beach map.

well if anyone finds out of an ET conversion, please post it here!!

I dunno if mapping tools have been released yet for ET…

I agree that Beach is a fun map and yes it is EXTREMELY overplayed so I have a sinking feeling that it will be coming over to ET once maps start coming out… whether or not this is a good thing is tough to say :confused:

its the greatest wolfenstein map ever made. it has everything in one map, makes every rtcw class useful and even plays brilliantly at all the normal teamsizes 6v6, 10v10, 16v16… :bash:

i dont think many people really care about it being “open for assualt by any ships” for aslong as people dont get to play as ships in rtcw… :stuck_out_tongue:

(linkin90) #14

I agree, it does make use of every class. Who cares about team doors and stuff, they aren’t needed, and who cares if mortar fire will be a hassle, there is still places you can hide, and many places to snipe the person with the mortar. I still think its the best map.

Be careful what you wish for…

I knew somebody would do it :stuck_out_tongue:

I meant assualt by ships as in realistic, id rather someone made a realistic beach map like on dday, it would almost look like battery.

yeah i know, i was just saying for most people pure gameplay is all that matters, with a huge degree of realism simply being a bonus extra.

Of course what is considered/required for “realism” in a game (or a movie!) varies, some counting rtcw/et as realistic enough, some only counting Americas Army or Op Flashpoint as realistic enough; while some others just look for relaistic physics in the supposed setting… NB when i say “realistic enough” i mean to play and enjoy it, not to be playing it as an accurate simulator or something :slight_smile:

i love the beach!! :banana:

I like beach also but keep in mind I like to call it NOOB ISLAND. When a servers rotation (if has one) comes up to that map, noobs just flock to it.

I think getting ideas from rctw maps and making them for et would be better then converting them over. This way you can use more of the classes in et, fix the flaws, add some detail and just have fun with it. Seeing a whole new beach might also get on peoples nervers ( damn there has to be what 20 beach maps already made ) But i think if its just for et it should be fine.
