What is with all the arena maps????
I get so tiered of all these arena maps getting hosted on df2. Personally, what kind of skill does it take to kill someone in an arena....not too
much.
Views, ideas, lets hear them...

May God Bless the Corsshairs of Your Scope!

I personally enjoy arena maps, they improve your CQB skills, make the battle between the players much more exciting and intense and if ya a sniper ya
got nowhere to run :P

That could have some reason as to why I don't like them....Im a sniper, and also there is no thrill of the hunt!

I have to agree with Holywood on this one, im sniper but i do reasobly well with CQB, but Sniping is just better.
There is no greater fear than knowing a man is hunting u. so when im on the sniping side its just more fun, following a guy for 5 min to knife,
shooting someone from 2000 meters and they have no idea where u r. thats what makes gaming fun. dominating, so arena maps where ppl get like 1-1
stats its just not as fun. spawn and get killed.. no fun at all really. i think ppl should host more sniping or even the good ole big assault maps
more. becasue remember if im hunting u, ur as good as dead!

Amen to that...
I'm with Hollywood and the Mod, lol. Sniping is really the bulk of where my skill lies, and the rest is in sabatoge. I mean, you have to admit that
sniping is just the better half of life. Escaping the firefight, retreating into the hills, crawling through the grass, and putting a bullet in the
other guy's head are all the best qualities of being a sniper.
Not to mention, the folks don't automatically lock onto you and shoot you back. They're too busy trying to stay alive in the red zone that even if
they did stop to look for you, they'd get shot by the other guy without a second thought.
Personally, these arena games really suck half the time. They're so small, that you could shoot a bullet and it'd end up killing somebody. Not to
mention so poorly made, and they lag. But heck, I figure there really are no good arenas any more.
The best type of map are the open ones. Where both snipers and assaulters can have at it without some wall cooping you all in. Plus, if the other team
starts to get a lead, that lone sniper can destroy any armory that team was using.
Sabatoge and Sniping. They'll probably have a squad called the "SS" before the day is through!
Of course, there will be no "zich heils" allowed, lol... :D

There's not supposed to be a thrill of the hunt, it's enclosed :P
Ya might wanna check out my server Lock 'n' Load, I host a combination of CQB and distance maps (M4 only), they range from 100m - 600m, some are crazy
whereas some you can snipe on, best of both worlds :D

assaulter
I myself am an assault gamer, I like the 100-400 meter games that are fast. But as for the arena maps I dont much care for the way they are being
made. They all look alike. Funny I just submitted a Sniper Map called Marksman. I like to snipe on occassion when I feel like a game of chess.
Slow and calculated.

Being a sniper I would have to agree with hollywood & Dread.....I love sniping from way out....I usually leave clays or satchels laying around
somewhere near the enemies armoury...If I know I'm going into a CBQ,I'll take something for close contact but I prefer to snipe.
