I like all those maps, they have different ways to be played but all of them have gathering points, places where you are exposed, and places with height advantage. Also Goliath has the upper point to camp and shoot anyone who dares use the elevator... I suppose there are preffered maps. I like observatory also, and I do not stay either in the open field nor in the roof. Is too obvious that you are there...
The one I dislike now is the Pine one, the new one, you just run and run and no action whatsoever. is kinda boring....but not cause it has avd/dis as a map..

I like Anubis, Icefields and Serenity. We should really get these onto the server.

Let me guess: You're running in circles on the ridge and keep wondering why you don't reach the end of the map? About 95% of all player do exactly that on PineRidge and if both teams are circling in the same direction then, yes, it can take longer until you find an enemy. The map isn't quite that large as you think it is. You can cross the map in about 30 seconds. Only of you exclusively circle on the large ridge it appears to be huge.

I consider PineRidge as one of the best maps on the server. In contrast to other maps, you don't have predefined pathways you have to take but you can move any way you like. This opens an entire range of possible strategies. In most rounds I played so far on the map I was able to outmaneuver the enemy team, to flank them, or get into their rear while they were distracted by the rest of my team in their front. This of course means, that you have to leave the large ridge at some point ;)
And who are you, the proud lord said, that I must bow so low?
Only a cat of a different coat, that's all the truth I know.
In a coat of gold or a coat of red, a lion still has claws,
And mine are long and sharp, my lord, as long and sharp as yours.
And so he spoke, and so he spoke, that lord of Castamere,
But now the rains weep o'er his hall, with no one there to hear.
Yes now the rains weep o'er his hall, and not a soul to hear.

Ok, I am positioning myself in the ridge cause is the height advantage playing some part but the few times I tried to go through any other path I was sniped and of course not thawed cause no one will risk to be in the open field. And then I'm hearing the shots far away, I rush to the place, and there is nothing... I'll follow you next time if you're in my team :D... btw is annoying to get stuck in the stupid trees.

> Xmas maps

I'm familiar with those - they're on my old FnG clan server if anyone wants to try them without having to find & download them.

They look really festive but most are very sniper oriented, and that would really spoil my Xmas.
