    Its a ugly noob fest stalemate one sided wallspamed turret lag fest full of predictable outcomes and tanks bumping into each other.

    NF can win matches on a normal map with cheaper faster tanks in a normal balanced match.. BE has pretty much unlimited res so they can afford rail heavy's and NF can't use speed or great driving to maneuver around them because its so linear.. And people always say.. NF wins all the time! It's because BE had a bad comm or is full of noobs.. It wouldn't work that way in a clan match.

    what the last three people said. Mostly I try and play anyway and actually do have some fun but I dont hesitate to use it as an excuse to dick around and play scout seeing as i have absolutely no vested interest in either team winning, because, as arklansman once said, "Even if you win the match, if you're playing emp_money, you still lose." I'm paraphrasing, of course, but that's the right idea.

    First team with long range artys, nukes, etc. take out enemy's ref from their own base where they are protected. From there its game over. No skill at all =P

    This map was better at 1.07. Arty spam was fun.

    We don't play that way on the Training Server. Money is actually fun when you prohibit the cheap tactics (e.g. Nuke Sniping from inside the base).

    You're whining. It's ideal map when you're rushing. With current research scripts it's clear that turtling makes no sense for NF.

    Depends on number of players, small games yes. But in larger games both teams are far better off rushing nukes than anything else. DPS on rails is x. DPS on nukes is x(number of nme tanks hit) Consider rails do 10x the damage of nukes but you can only hit one target with it(i'm ignoring heat for this). With 10 tanks vs 10 tanks you would be doing 100 dps with rails(10 tanks each doing 10 dps, 10x10). With nukes you would be doing 1(10 friendly tanks)(10 enemy tanks hit)= 100. 10 tanks doing 1 dps hitting 10 enemy tanks. Of course with rails you can focus fire blah blah blah heat blah blah blah exetera but you get the general idea.

    The map fails so hard in BE favor its not even fun. If NF doesn't nuke snipe then rail heavys will go romp\

    that's why i like it :D Though i only like it cause it appears so rarely in the map rotations, if not at all. Some times you wanna just get out there and be a noob with a boom tank.

    The map is fun if you can somehow manage to capture the enemys original base and force them to sit in middle with no resources.. that was a very fun game :)

    I like how 7 people voted epic win yet only like 1 or two people have said why they like it.. Please tell us why you like it.. I'm gonna just assume its because you like to grief on it. People are always like I've had fun matches on it! Well you can have fun matches on down hill jam but that doesn't mean it should be an official map or even on any servers rotation. The only reason it was made was because most rts games have a money map..

    I think it should be redone or replaced with cyber's version of it so people can at least have room to drive left or right.. It's basically urban chaos with research.

    It would be better if walls were disabled as default for the map.
