I remember people complaining that hi_leute just released 2-3 good maps per week :D. Now you get one release a month and that's a map like rope swing lol.
The maps he released were not crap but rather boring "creative"
But ure right, Rope Swing fuck my life pls xD
I agree

Some suggestions to improve DD maps
- new and more efficient testers, if I need to wait few moths before I get any response about my maps, I wont be very determined to improve it, since its been forever since I've even looked at the map, same for the one-map-per-mapper-rule
- higher standards, if shitty maps like "rope swing" get released why would people put effort in making good maps?
- rating system, because "random unfinished map by vote caller can give very interesting results
- mokuz

- It's not like new testers come out of nowhere, also being a good tester needs a lot of experience which obv needs time. All the old and good testers are gone (which I can understand).

- If the only thing people want is to get their map released, regardless wether it's good or not, then something is wrong.

Still no answer after 2 weeks. Is there any (relevant) staff member left who does care about DDNet?

Also aaa said there won't be any secret releases anymore, except for very special maps. Well...obviously Stronghold 2 is a pure average map, so I guess aaa already made his own rules irrelevant? :D

as far as i know the word was "HYPED" maps

unless we live in a different world, Stronghold is amongst the most popular brutal maps, by FAR

how doesn't that justify it being hyped?
Considering I expected some people ( ;) ;) ;) ;) ) to complain, I obviously gathered opinions before actually accepting the map to bypass the forum, but I guess your opinion is the supreme one and because you decided that stronghold 2 isn't hyped makes the rules irrelevant!

Stronghold isn't Brutal. xd
Compared to other maps of the same type (e.g. Grandpa) it has performed just normal.

Stronghold 2 is made on the same average level, so it will probably perform pretty similar. So nothing hyped here. xD

Anyway would be nice if you could answer the OP.
