    More snow maps. I believe only glycencity is an official snow map and it never gets played.

    emp_Glacial & emp_Snowbound
    Those have got to be the most epic maps I have ever played on.

    Snowbound sucks, but you're right, Glacial is real quality, especially the use of height. Why isn't it played at the moment? Is the map broken? I forget.

    Can't remember playing a map named glacial, can someone do something about snowbound albeit Tricksters believes?

    I think that's the wrong usage of the world "albeit".

    I think thats the wrong usage of the word "world".

    I meant to say "despite".

    I fucking hate this laptop keyboard. Also, fuck you.

    If you meant "despite", then believes needs to be beliefs.

    Let's try not to berate each other for our writing errors and keep this thread on topic, shall we?

    I don't think I've ever played it...

    Yeah, the map isn't on my computer. So either it's a really terrible map or the players are really terrible to almost never play it.

    Snowstorm is the direct successor to glacial, snowstorm literally started as glacial_b6. But I can release it again if you really think it's worth playing.

    IIRC the main complaints were:
    jeeps couldn't get up most of the slopes
    too much height
    passes too narrow for fun tank fights

    Got any screenshots from Snowstorm? I don't think I've played it.

    I kind of enjoyed it but yeah I felt the slopes were way too extreme, I could never get vehicles where I needed to go. Fun infantry fights though. Getting entrenched in that massive valley sucked ASS though ughh.

    The extreme height is what made it fun.

    Just played fuel for the first time, I'd recommend it though it does need some changes.

    I'd remove the ticket messing about mechanic and just make it solid starting tickets, maybe tweak the central areas res flow a bit.
    Overall I really like it though, good gameplay and cool areas to fight in, my main problem with it is the centre is this really awesome cool infantry area and gives like no res so nobody ever fights over it.
