bestinclass
i just tried bestinclass for the first time tonight
good:
great concept (it was my idea )
great instructions
great labels/icons on the doorways, control points, etc.
bad:
the fucking routes are way harder than they need to be. the point is that it's EASY for the specific class. i couldn't make it through with pyro, i couldn't make it through with scout, and then i gave up.
i'd love to see a revision where i can make it through on the first try as the class i need to be.

Like a straight yellow brick road for the pyro? lol jkjoe wrote: i'd love to see a revision where i can make it through on the first try as the class i need to be.
But yeah I agree some of the routes are way to hard. I don't think I have ever beaten the Pyro, heavy, and sniper routes.
Re: bestinclass
I think its time we seriously started talking about making a bestinclass only server. I played it at least 3 or 4 times today just because everyone is screaming for it. But a lot of other players don't like it because of the lack of action. Its a fun map but you can only play it so many times in a day. I really think that the server number 1 should be made into a bestinclass only server, it would be insanely popular and as the server is now its completely empty 24/7 I've seriously never seen a single player in it since I became admin. I figure this way we can keep the most people happy for most of the time.
Re: bestinclass
I just finished adding the lights to the whole thing like 4 minutes ago so good thing cow let me know about this thread. I suppose I could go back and make a few changes to the harder courses. What I have in mind:
Heavy- connect the 3rd part's platforms so no jumping would be required.
Sniper- make all the targets not bullseye only.
Pyro- add 2 more signs to keep you on track.
Suggestions? What's the hardest part about them specifically?

Re: bestinclass
scout route is too hard. it should be impossible for everyone else but easy (or at least, not hard) for scout.the last ramp jump and the last couple colunm jumps are too hard

Re: bestinclass
yeah, there is only 1 jump that gets me on the scout, which is the first time you jump over spikes, to that square hole.

Re: bestinclass
Yeah, scout needs no changing. And I agree with your post DZ, if you added those into the map, Me (and maybe alot more people) will love you for it.

Re: bestinclass
the only class i have trouble with is the sniper (WTF, me?). Everything else is easy, I love the scout one, and btw when I do the pyro, I just use a scout and jump all the way and I'm done .

Re: bestinclass
i never made it past the columns. the first ramps part took forever until someone told me you have to crouch jump, which is stupid.
well it's your map, do whatever, but if it stays as hard as it is now, i'm never playing it again.

Re: bestinclass
I think scout is the easiest
Sniper I can only beat with solder
Demoman is easy
Pyro is easy
Never play the others much
