What is your favorite multiplayer map in the genres of capture the flag, capture & hold or deathmatch? http://forums.bistudio.com/oldsmileys/smile_o.gif
If you have a favorite, tell the name of the map and if the map is not a really famous one, try to describe it and explain what is good in it! Maps from both OFP and ArmA will do, if you don't have a favorite, tell us what kind appeals to you the most.
For starters, in OFP I liked CTF Red Snow. It was a medium sized CQB in winter Nogojev, the atmosphere in a dark, snowy town was without equal and it did help that I am particularly good in snow maps. The first thing I do when a decent winter island is released is make a similar map. The one deathmatch I would always play if I saw it on the list was the simple but classic DM Ruins on Kolgujev. A perfect balance between stealth, sniping and run n' gunning.
In ArmA so far I've liked DM Vodka in the village of Rahmadi and Hexenkessel. Vodka is a bit like Tequila in OFP, just simple shooting and the area is quite small but still complex enough to find a hiding place. Hexen was one of my first experiences in OFP and I remember that I was amazed by the architecture, at that time I didn't know you could add buildings in the editor. The design is quite simple but the 3 + 3 corridors and the middle area add a feeling of tactics that other similar maps lack. Successfully flanking the enemy always makes you feel like a man.
I will use the results to determine what kinds of maps have demand in the community, but also to satisfy my natural curiosity! http://forums.bistudio.com/oldsmileys/wink_o.gif
