VCTF servers

[jimmy_woods]

What are some good VCTF servers? Whenever I want to play VCTF there's only like 2 servers listed in unreal and they are always pinging like crap.

a little question, is it normal that vctf maps dont work so well in single player with bots ??

depends on the map, sum have crappy bot paths and others are pretty good. I notices most of the vctf in deeadcat mappack have so-so bots because most are meant to be played online. The sukky thing is , i have the same problem with servers too..........not too many and the ones that are there , well , teh ping is up up and away .

Best suggestion is::: a)to start ur own server or

b)open up Ued and do your own bot paths.

Other than that i guess i'll be playing whatever servers i can find.

When I first heared of VCTF maps I jumped in joy, but then there's almost no servers, almost no players, and almost no ping. Adding to that, there's so far NO vctf map out there I like.(What the hell does a goliath do in a VCTF?) Therefore, I made my own VCTF maps. I myself believe those two maps I've made so far are far more fun than any other VCTF map I've played so far.(Of-course this is just my own personal taste!)

I finally got some VCTF in this morning and it was great! I think the server was called Kush or something. I don't like having some of the useless vehicles in it that can't carry the flag. Played one map that had like f14's, helicopters, ion tanks, ion cannons, and everything else. It would have been crazy if lot's of people were playing.

The Kush server is the best I have found for VCTF maps. BOT pathing for the game is somewhat limited and error prone. It can be done ok if the mapper takes their time.

I am sure that the following maps have bot pathing that works well enough to enjoy.

VCTF-Atomicsands][
VCTF-Badplace
VCTF-Battleline
VCTF-Sandblasted
VCTF-Juggernaut
VCTF-Mistyglen

I hear you.
I'm finding that there are problems with VCTF mapping that might add up to why Epic didn't release maps with that gametype. a) The bots are very difficult to path correctly with the vehicles, they are finicky to the point of caring which side of the Hellbender they can get into. b) Due to the vehicles practically demanding a large scale map and the fact that there are only two GameObjectives, it becomes a challenging problem to come up with a layout design that isn't just a glorified straight line between flags. These are two big problems that will detract from the overall quality of these maps, but there are big road blocks in the game engine too. Example: There isn't even a vehiclefactory that sets a TeamNum on the vehicle for VCTF (I've had to make a custom one)
I'm working on a VCTF map now. And I'm finding it necessary to add quite a but of original content to make it work well.

If epic would have released some VCTF maps with the game I'm sure that more players would have played it!

It was the same with UT2k3. When the bonus pack was released and invasion was born, there was almost no servers! Look at it now! Invasion came with the game and there's a lot of servers and players on-line now!
