Title: Standart or custom maps?
Post by: echo_trail on June 19, 2006, 04:04:58 pm: Hi, as some of you may know, I run a realistic server called CE | Realistic. I've often been asked to put in a few custom maps, since i've been running standart maps only. I rejected this every time, due to many servers being(in my eyes) ruined by custom maps. Some are not around long enough for people to get to know them, and some are simply too bad, and doesn't live up to the quality of standart maps.
I'd like to know what you guys think about this=? Should I add custom maps, or not?
Thanks,
echo

Do not get CS maps, though.Â The DS servers and Avarax's server (along with a couple of others) already have them. Be unique.

I'm sure you'll find plenty of good custom maps within the Maps Sections of these forums, as well as in the SML (http://sml.u13.net) and the Mapmine (http://mapmine.extra.hu).
