I feel like I should say that mappers feel inclined to avoid working on maps for competitive because it's an incredibly difficult audience to design for. Mapping is a pretty major time commitment, and aiming it at competitive means that you have to put in that much more effort and put up with a lot more bullshit for, most of the time, fewer results. Making a map for pub play allows you a lot more creative options and a lot more resources for testing.

the unpugable maps
in
TF2 General Discussion
drshdwpuppetI do, its because mappers are bad at taking feedback and filtering good feedback from bad feedback. They shelter their maps behind doors/with just other mappers until it is a major pain in the ass to change geometry, then come here and get shit on by the Geneva Convention breaking levels of weapons grade autism interspersed with legitimate feedback and take none of it, quit, or just release their map and vow never to return to the hated "competitive community".
Maybe if comp wasn't so hostile towards testing maps without _rc in the filename we'd have more good comp maps.

On a side note, why aren't event maps displaying their proper names in the loading screens? Instead of Ghost Fort it says Lakeside Event, instead of Mann Manor it says Manor Event, etc.
EDIT: Looks like this is only happening to the new maps atm.

joshuawnwhy would anyone spend time developing a map for arena? and why would they try making 2fort a thing?
what a complete waste of time lol
Because arena is the easiest gamemode to design a map for?

Changes for cp_well?
in
Map Discussion
JnaejnaeOMG in attempt to decompile the valve well map. I deleted almost everything. Even the walls and floors, but the parts that remained turned out REALLY AWESOME. Forget cp_well_pro, and welcome cp_well_sky. Basically gonna be well, but make it floating with like a million places to fall into oblivion ;p

Part of the reason Well and Freight are so bad is because both of the entrances to second are shutter doors. I don't see how you'd go about fixing that. It'd require such a major facelift and change to the basic geometry that you'd be better off making a new map.

Why are you running cp_sunshine_rc7 instead of rc8? It's been out for months.
