Vanilla map servers? Are there any?!?!?!?!

For all things AoS!

Vanilla map servers? Are there any?!?!?!?!

Postby Nutella » Thu Mar 08, 2012 7:50 pm

I played this game during its beta and I LOVED the vanilla maps. There was always a nice island somewhere where you could make a sweet base, and those hills were perfect for making trench systems and mounding bunkers into. There was plenty of room to make elaborate fortresses and bases and building stuff actually mattered for winning the intel, cause it gave a territorial advantage. I remember one night playing AoS a couple friends and I decided to build a base on a big island in the middle of the map, and there was a HUGE battle where the enemy was sitting on this hill shooting at us as we were building it. We put a flag up and there were several skirmishes over that island. It was freaking sweet.

These days, most servers I've gone on have these idiotic maps that put some kind of huge cubes or a massive bridge that you can't cross without getting killed instantly and take forever to tunnel through. That's not fun. The thing I loved about AoS was building bunkers and sniper foxholes and such, to give your team an advantage on the map. What I want to know is if there are any servers that still play the good old default, randomized map instead of these premade ones..[don't get me wrong, I think some custom maps are cool]

Well, Minit US has a default genmap in the rotation, but it doesn't come up often. Someone should host a 24/7 vanilla gen server.

I'd make one in a heartbeat but I'm having some trouble accessing my router and hate fiddling with stuff like that S:

Shams usually has Gen and the some of the more popular older maps in rotation, you should check them out buddy!

Minit EU and Minit US have gen on their map rotation. Also I've found out that many of the random european servers host gen.

Shams maps are chosen by their admins manually, so it's pretty much determined do they want a gen map or do the people on the server want gen map.

There are a few gens time to time, but they don't play nothing like they did back then. Gen maps work only in TOW actually.

Mostly because of autoclimb and SMG. (You DON'T get a terrotarial advantage by building or tunneling anymore)
