It looks very nice, but I hope you fixed the balance probelem with the flags. As is, Axis win about 90% of the time.

Also, spawn protection for the allies is an issue.

really? i find that odd because in cal allies cap out more than axis

only problems i found were once allies cap the mountain house, they cant really swing around and flank the arch... so instead they just sit and spawn camp... other than that, its prety well balanced.

its way easier as allies, since the allies basically dominate long

It means that

1. Server admins who won't update it (unless they read this forum everyday) will prevent clients with new version to join
2. Server admins who will update, will prevent client with earlier version to join (let's hope they will read this thread)
3. In people's mind, something that does not work = crap.

They'll just get the message "Impossible to connect. Reason: your map differs from server's bsp".
So, do like everyone else, follow the rules. For example dod_flash was called dod_flash2_b1 (winter map) and dod_flash2_b2 etc...
Conclusion the name is not changed, only the suffix.

.....your going to lose your alot of server support by not renaming it.

Id suggest taking the few minutes it will take and re-post it before its too late.

actually, 90% of servers will update due to matches played on this map, due to it being the best ever
after that, the rest will follow

GJ, I really hope some EU leagues will at least consider putting some customs into the rotation for the next seasons now....

Nevermind my overview request. I re-downloaded from gotfrag/dod and that mirror ended up having the overview. Great map!
