Axis Attack


(Erls) #1

Ok, first of all, I know that this is not directly related to mapping. However, it is somewhat, as it is about mapping and why most maps are Allied attack. The community I’m apart of currently operates 8 public servers. For 7 of them, we are able to keep a near perfect balance between Axis and Allied attack. However, one of our servers (B1) is 64 people and many of the good maps cannot be run on it without crashing the server. Maps like: MLB Daybreak, MLB Egypt, Ruins, Resurrection, and Venice (original). I am wondering if any of you have some ideas about good axis attack maps for larger servers. We currently know of:

Warbell, Paris Bastille, MLB Starbase, MLB Hotchkiss, MLB Bayraid, Caen, Sands of Time, UJE_00, MML Church, MML Helmsdeep, MML Minas Tirith, Pantherbase, XF5U, Industry2.

Are there any other good Axis attack maps out there which can handle 60 people?

Wacht am Rhein (Beta 1) (a.k.a.) Battle of the Bulge

Here’s the designer’s site with some info and pics.

Very good map.

You might also want to consider some dual objective maps (both teams attacking) such as Marketgarden.

axis attack maps arent made mostly because of one reason: all VOs are made that axis say defensive things and allies tell attacking, now to start cutting pasting and editin it will take much time till smb will make axis attack sounds.

I see the last update on that was in 2003?

I dont think there will be a next beta :roll:

There’s a mod that changes the teams.
Might be worth a look.
Unfortunately http://www.wolfmap.de/ is not reachable ATM.
http://wolfmap.gameprophets.com/details.php?file_id=445 should be the correct address.

Do you know how exactly that works? Does it change the teams on every map on the campaign, just a couple? Also, does it work with custom and the original maps, or just one type?

Why would there need to be a next beta, when it’s as good as it is? :roll:

That’s the full title of the map, hence why it’s posted here. :lol:

I’m very interested in this mod. Niether of the links worked for me though. If you come across more on this, can you let me know? tx.

This very cool mod switches the teams, including weapons and Objectives/Description, on the standard-maps. So now the Allies have to defend, and the Axis are attacking!

i think same
