Snowy Park WTF??
 

Why was Snowy Park added to the AA.com map rotation? Could it be removed, or am I the only one who thinks that it sucks?

it's the only map that rambo mode doesn't work. i like it because i always play stealthy. all those stg whores who think they are invincible are suddenly dropping dead left and right

i just camp with a rocket somewhere, but the map drives my framerate to absolute shit.

Snowy park is the best map . I love it . All my clan member hate it , thats why its not in the roration of my server.

all your clan members are ghey frenchies biggrin:

Are we talking about the Snowy Park in AA? Guess not. Snowy is THE map for Rambo. I always use that tactic there. Just pick up an smg, run like an idiot using the cover of the trees and only watch out for those damn shotties. And win...or come close to it...

Go shotties biggrin:

every time i see someone trying on rambo there they get ambushed (usually by me) or someone else who knows how to effectively play the map. shotties are easily picked off at long and short range since they never usually hear you coming.

i usually just hide with a sniper gun and pick off the rambos fire2:

Chicken Boo hates Snowy Park. Hell it says it in his sig.

I also hate it. My FPS drop down to shit and there is no place to hide. Plus its a really good map for spawn camping.

Whenever that map comes up, I whip out grenades and start suiciding people. I played on another server and did this since I didn't find out about the new IP until a few days ago. It's so funny when they waste a clip and can't hit you, then try to run away while the grenade is ticking in your hand LOL.

hehe biggrin:

there's no place to hide if you run around like an idiot oOo:

Exactly mad:

well maybe then again......no

Snowy par sux if u don't have a good graphics card...it looks like shit from my view. But i do like siting there behind a rock with a rocket and blowing myself and who ever finds me up. Damn that is the shit right chere

Good point. After I bought the ti4600, that SP runs pretty well on my machine...

rifle ownage!

Why hate snowy park?
 

Why does everyone hate that map? I can see if it kills your framerate, but it happens to be one of my personal favorites. I think the key to this level (and all other levels, matter of fact) is to NEVER stop moving. I believe the only soldier that should stop in his tracks is the sniper. I arm myself with my trusty boomstick (shotty) and dart between the trees taking people out as they run by, much like a trapdoor spider. I like to play the stealth game and I know I'm not the only one out there. And as I'm sure to catch flak from being a shotty user I have only one thing to say: If I'm using stealth and cover in a way that lets me sneak up on you, what does it matter what weapon I'm using? A 3 rnd. burst from smg or mg to the back of the melon is gonna kill you just as good as a blast o' buckshot. I just think everyone should keep a closer eye on their surroundings, and the snipers should stop gluing their eyeballs to the scopes. Of course not everyone does that, I'm just saying that it's not a good thing to do if you do it. I think that every weapon in this game has a way around it and players that whine about the weapons should learn to defend against them. Also, if anyone out there is lookin' for a shotty for their clan, gimme a holler!

Snowy park rocks. My gf2ti handled it like a champ and my ti4200 even better. I like to rambo it. the secret is to run thru the trees and not in the road. Its harder for the campers to pick you off that way. Anything is better than a linear map with choke points - city hall, brest, berlin, etc. Its only one map, get over it.

beleave it or not, i get the best fps there, haha see i get 11 at crossroads and 50 at snowy, is that not wierd? oOo:

If you guys have framerate problems, try turning stuff down. Or maybe get a pc worthy of the game. I hear you dont need a good pc for cs or q3. Why should peeps with decent pcs have to suffer?

P4
1.5 GHZ
256 mb RAM
GeForce 2 MX
Win XP
Considering all the other levels run top notch I'm not about to waste 1,500 bucks for a new pc just because snowy park isn't running right.

Try $100 on a new vid card and your problems will solved.

Snowy Park is a great level.

To all you Rambos: I can hear you coming from a mile away...

Call me a n00b, but what the hell does it mean to go rambo? Just charge over the bridge or something?

Yeah, I like Snowy Park as well. It is best to be stealthy on this map, and I see (for the most part) people who like to run and gun tend to hate this map. Probably because there are no always-in-the-same-place-twice camping spots, or Ima-gonna-camp-at-this-choke-point spots.

My best (for my score) TDM map, and few people like it. oOo:

That's Rambo.

Oh. Yah I do the same, but don't run like an idiot. Grab a rifle or SMG, hop tree to tree, and watch for movement. biggrin:

I think snowy got a bad reputation when its played with stock weapons.
With realism its one of the better maps.

I concur.
