If nothing else, I haven't memorized the order yet so I'm pleasantly (or not so pleasantly) surprised! Thanks for the work on keeping things interesting.

Is any thought being given to adding some of the DC Final maps to the rotation?

Can it be done?

Would that create server crash issues?

You guys should definitely add at least a couple of final maps in the rotation , i think most active players have final installed.

Never thought you guys would do it. Thanks for adding some final maps. I'm sure it's a pita to change things up...but while you're in the mood can I make another suggestion. Maybe remove some of the less popular and/or unbalanced DC maps?

If these maps disappeared from the rotation for a while I wouldn't complain:

Wake
Docks
Medina Ridge
Iwo Jima
Tobruk
Bunkers

Also, we all have our favorites maps. When the rotation is very large, unless you can play 6 hours a day, it feels like you're winning the lottery when one of your favorites shows up. Add 6, remove six...to keep the size of the rotation reasonable.

Hey guys just a thought as I have said it and seen it being said recently ... is there any way to break up tobruk, eastings and medina ... three tank maps in a row.

i think medina needs to be removed completely that map is horrible. the flag capture area is ridiculously small. and me personally i hate being confined to attacking one flag

I took out Wake, Medina and Tobruk. The change will take effect the next time the server crashes (I mean is rebooted).

As much as I'm not a fan of infantry maps, a lot of folks love 'em.
