SUGGESTION, Broadswoard to Frontline Options

[Doyle]

This is a suggestion prompted by numerous comments made during game play in GFM Frontline map.

All comments have been extremely positive for the Frontline map. Several folks has commented that maybe we should replace the Broadsword 24/7 map with the Frontline map.

As a player of both Broadsword and Frontline I must say I like them both. If however I had to make a pick between the two I would be hard pressed to choose one over the other, but.. bottom line I would pick the Frontlline map.

I have noticed that Broadsword very rarely seems to have anyone playing. If there is anyone there it seems to usually be only a few people. Nothing like Tuchola or Barbarosa as far as attendance.

I have "surfed" the different maps and servers and noticed there are other Broadsword maps running in a rotation on other servers. All of the other Broadsword maps that get a lot and I mean a LOT of play all have a different setup. Some have modern weapons.. (which I prefer the WW2 for COD) bottom line, I don't like. However All that I have played seem to have Tripwires and remote satchels enabled on these maps.

If you want that server to get a lot of players I would like to make this suggestion:

Replace Broadsword with Frontline (NOT GFM MOD gameplay), make the tanks the unlimited ammo as on Tuchola and Barbarosa. Also personally I would like to see the tripwires and satchels enabled.

Where you can plant a satchel for remote detonation, where you can sneak up behind an unaware tanker and stick a satchel on his rear and boom...

I have heard a few players say they don't like the trips and satchels because it makes it harder to blow a base. I say not true... what it does is require a player not to just rush into a bunker without checking for trips and check for remote satchels laying around.

If they do, they can toss a grenade on the trips and blow it, or better yet they can steal the trips and they can difuse a satchel by doing the same thing.

I think this would make the Frontline 24/7 server a popular server. At the present the Broadsword seems to be pretty vacant most of the time.

The Frontline map is on the GFM mod and not that may folks are aware of it.

Broadsword to Frontline is my vote.



OMM I along with everyone recognize that you did a tremendous amount of work setting up the GFM, would the switch I suggested require that much work?

Wow guys, looks like OMM beat me to making this all happen for you. Great job Mike!! Thanks.

P.S. I smiled when I saw your note in the gfm's map config file. Yes, true... sad, but true. <sigh>
