RC is clearly a vehicle map server, and I have noticed there are certain classics that aren't on RC like Dragon Valley 2015, Caspian Border, Rogue Transmission, Gulf of Oman, Operation Outbreak and I think Zavod 311? I know there is graveyard shift for sure, but having both at opposite ends of the map rotation would be cool. Some of the maps I listed may actually be in your rotation, but with the server on a set order, I usually only see the same maps one after another and miss out on others that would play earlier in the day.

I would love to have these maps added to the rotation. Also maybe consider a map voter plugin. Its good stuff! and it will get rid of the issue I mentioned that has us playing the same order of maps over and over so it feels like we are playing more diverse choice of maps

Thanks
 
Thanks for the link. I didn't realize there were so many, I counted the maps I recognize to be on RC hardcore, and could only count 13. As you said it takes 15 hours to go through the whole list, it seems the maps I have never seen in your server come on early in the day and the 13 I counted come on mid to late night hours which presents the illusion of low map count on the server. While its clear you guys wont be adding a votemap / next map function anytime soon, I would like to just be another person to express interest for you guys to consider the addition of the vote so people who only play at generally the same times during the day can experience more than the handful of maps they get to see based on the time they of day they get to play.

Other than that, you guys have a rock solid server. Thanks for listening!

Id add a votemap but it would limit the maps we run to i think 6. Folks ask for nearly every map. Its hard to cram them all in at this point. But im listening and have bubbling ideas.
 
I dont have experience with the BF4 servers so I may be wrong, but I do run a vote map server for a different game. I have it set to give a list of 5 at a time with a map choice of over 30. The map vote plugin is programmed to not include maps recently chosen, so I am able to say not to include zavod in the choice of maps for 6 rounds after its already been picked, so its always pulling from different maps that havent been played recently.

I would imagine the BF4 plugins are similar.
 
The odd one out here is certainly 'XP3_UrbanGdn' or Lumphini Garden. The biggest vehicle you'll find here is a quad, but all other maps are vehicle-centric. You guys amazingly dont even have locker and metro which I am thankful for. What do you think about the idea of replacing lumphini with Dragon Valley 2015 'MP_Valley'. I have to switch to another server to get my valley fix.
 
The community (not so much the forum) has been begging for locker and metro to be added. the addition of a votemap or nextmap function would allow anyone opposed to these maps to just veto them.

I've done some digging and have found that no HC metro/locker servers exist anymore, so there would be a large influx of new pople to populate the server. This kind of move is key to server longevity since its a niche no other server can offer at the moment.
 
24/7 HC metro and locker are a bad idea which is why they're all gone. Accidental teamkilling is pretty ridiculous at the choke points and players would get kicked all the time. A 24/7 server would have to allow a high number of TK's before kick is allowed, so RC's rules of 3 punishes and you're out doesn't support HC meat grinders. That being said, MiGaming and TBG hardcore both run metro and locker, (Maybe not TBG but definitely MiG). As for the vetoing, MiG players occasionally vote for the meat grinder levels, it all just depends on the mood of the server. But I am perfectly happy without locker/metro on a HC server.

I'm just here hoping to at the very least get Dragon Valley 2015 added.
 
The problem with Dragon Valley is how buggy it is. People constantly spawn without weapons, or with no sound, or any number of issues that require restarting the game to fix.
 
I have never experienced these bugs you're referring to. Well I have experienced some of these bugs but its been across all maps. BF4 is a buggy game in general and I wouldn't contribute most of the bugs to DV2015
 
i know it is. i was just joking when i said it was good, but then i linked that video which shows a bug i experienced.
