if you want people to talk about it, make sure they can understand you.  And no, most of the real big cw2 mapmakers are in cw3 beta, and preparing for the beta.  And the authors you are talking about aren't that old...  I miss old UpperKEES...

EDIT: and no, the forums aren't dead, people just may not be interested.

sry guys,maybe i am just too noob to make a post -_-

It's the grammar. It makes the post kinda hard to understand. If English isn't your native langauge, you could use google translate to make it more legible and the grammar maybe better. :)

Actually, the one time I used Google Translate to translate from English into Turkish, a native Turkish speaker told me the translation was gibberish. :)

So in other words, it worked just fine? :P

I will tell you, Peter Power is gone. He's been gone for awhile. I'll check into ATF:3 for you though.

I too feel the pain!

It's weird to think that it's only a bit over a year since the heady days of CW2's release and the map makers started to test their skills on this new offering...

MadMag was always my favourite CW1 map maker, but for some reason he hasn't made as many maps for CW2. I have high hopes for him and CW3 - once he's finished actually creating the graphics for the game that is!

Actually, I was thinking that we need some way of keeping the old CW2 maps fresh so they can be discovered by new generations of players - rather like the 'random' maps used to pop up on the CW1 custom maps page.

These days it's normal for a new map to be downloaded 1,000-1,500 times within a week or so, while older maps (unless they're uber-classics like Liberation Pinball) are more likely to have been downloaded 500-1,000 times.

I can only assume that there's more players these days (downloading the new maps) who haven't yet started wading through the back catalogue - and there's some real gems buried back there!
Be yourself. Everyone else is already taken.

implement the rating system into the map filter when you hit download maps... would be a simple update to game 2 and would allow the new players to get to the "good stuff"

Don't remember much good stuff is overloaded with negative votes due their difficulty?
It IS a good filter for newbies without skill though.
