Map discussion for tiebreakers

Please, lets hear your thoughts on what map you think we should choose for tb and why.

For TDM I was thinking Downpour since a lot of people arent great on it and a lot of teams wont know what to do when the turret rains down on them. I could also go with Bog since we have a lot of good shooters on the team. Not a lot of flanking involved and pretty open.

Not very familiar with S&D but I would go with Vacant myself. Probably one of my better maps so Im biased but very easy to hold the target areas. Im pretty good at penetrating that back room too when planting the bomb, but like I said, I havent played a ton of S&D.

Perhaps we can take turns at penetrating that back room

TDM and domination bog is pretty fun and easy to play. it turns less into strats and more into straight up fragging than anything else. the map is simple and doesn't have many places to go.. on domination after you grab B just push past the bus and fan out around C and their spawn. easy as shit to back people into corners, and with everyone fanned out around C and the side building, they can't flank

i can only stand to play vacant in S&D, it slows the pace down A LOT on that map and actually makes it a playable non-clusterfuck for once. overgrown is pretty fun for S&D too, if you're into the whole silencer thing. both sides start retardedly close to A (the building that's flag B for domination i think) and flanking can be annoying, plus everyone is usually snakes in the grass with their silenced weapons

TDM- bog, because it's simple with no surprises
S&D- vacant or MAYBE even countdown

countdown is a lot like vacant, it's the only map i can stand to play on S&D. the bomb sites are on the outsides looking in, so instead of running around the outside of the map in a clockwise position like every other idiot, you hit the middle and get some picks, then hit that site. it's easy as shit

Bog - TDM / Headquarters and Capture and Hold.
Vacant - S&D / Sab.

I can snipe the fuck out of Bog, and w/ an M16 can tear it the fuck up pretty easy. I know earlier Banshee and I were having problems trying to get our airstrikes out and heli's out before each other, and I always seemed to have one backed up behind another I just sent out and it seemed as though Banshee was having the same luck.

Vacant is my favorite S&D map for the same reasons Surge listed, slows the pace down a lot, only thing that scares me is it is very easy to lock down the bomb points and can backfire if we play a team that is on par with the general skill level we have.

How does TWL work for perks? whatever you have you can use or is it like GB where a team picks which ones are active?

What is the significance of the tb?

They chose Overgrown as their map. This isnt set up like Tribes was where the first 2 are random. They pick 1st map and we pick 2nd while the Tiebreaker is chosen randomly.



So, are you choosing 2nd map, or the tb map? Crossfire any good in TDM?

Yea, I think Bog was our best choice on TDM. As far as S&D Id have to go with Pipeline, but of course Im biased as thats my favorite. Shipment? :D I think Showdown would be good for us on S&D too. Very small map and owning the stair cases seems to be the best way to catch people on that map.

Defender chooses first map
Attacker chooses second map
Random tiebreaker map

Defender picks sides for first and third map
Attacker chooses side for second map

Crossfire isnt bad for tdm, but its strong point is domination imo...Its got some horrible spawns on headquarters and ive never played it on s&d

wtb domination on TWL instead of just S&D and TDM :(

As long as you guys don't pick Ambush I'll be happy. I've gotten used to most of the maps but I still don't like Ambush at all. Not a big fan of overgrown either.

And yeah domination is one of my favorite gametypes.
