No it isn't, if you mean [url]http://www.ace-spades.com[/url]
I think if any change needs to be made, it should be the restriction of tunneling under the intel for both teams. It just ruins the feeling of building and defending your intel base when some douche comes out of the ground and grabs it from inside.

This could easily be avoided by implementing a large variety of map generating formulas, including flatish maps that are only so deep and the such.
Or making the maps hilly and shit still, but just have a flat area around the intel that players would be encouraged to build their 'main base' on.

Also, why do blue team rarely ever build forts? They've got so much room and yet their intel is stolen so easily.
I'd much prefer a flat map option, with a few low ridges.
That way trenches would be the main defensive feature and there'd be massive battles over the ridges.
Also, if we had autobalancing then I guess that whole 'green vs blue' thing would fade away. I'm still advocating the green team until it happens.

Imagine this is the map, with the left being blue and right being green
Flatland-Intel-Flatland-Hills-Hills-Ridge-water-Ridge-Hills-flatland-intel
This remembers that green only have a third of the map

Also, maybe map looping is a bad idea. To get a rough idea of the enemy team's base all you have to do is turn around when you spawn.

Green's buildings are more concentrated and mostly only need to defend from one front. Blue has much more open and mountainous terrain, causing them to tunnel into the mountains for ease of travel. Blue needs to defend from the front and both of its flanks, and due to the large open areas blues often build their buildings far apart from each other. Basically the determining factor between the two teams is terrain.
I found a good use to SLAB. Here's a WIP of what I am currently doing:

I still need a slogan to put on this propaganda image.
It's irritating how some players use this game as their free minecraft, and stay behind the frontlines building their nice cottages.
Edit: People dream about attack and defend with visions of defending from their cool and awesome self built forts. Theres no attack and defend yet and forts are pretty useless and slow to engineer anyways.

Creative mode minecraft exists

Also, forts are more useful than you think in defending the intel. Hide the intel underground and built a fort on top of it, nothing more. If I see the blue intel without any buildings near it, I'll be much more encouraged to go get it. If there's buildings, I fear that blues may be inside.

My ENTIRE team just did that. We lost 5-0. Only me and three other guys actually did any fighting on our team.

You greeps can't do shit but steal our buildings because your ones are useless.
So I waited a couple days, waded through some 50 pages of this thread, and I still can't play this game. I've reinstalled several times, I've forwarded all the right ports, I've done literally everything suggested and I still can not join a god damn server, it's always the usual "Mismatched server blah blah". Joining over and over doesn't work, unless all the servers are both empty, full, or didn't forward their ports then literally every single one on the list including all the Facepunch servers give me the same connection error.
I'm sure this game's awesome, I'd really really love to get into it, but hearing "You're doing it wrong, we can play so therefore it's an issue with you." over and over makes it damn near impossible.

you didnt honestly just say that those crappy blue boxes are better than the camouflaged fortresses us greens usually have
[QUOTE=loled;29211089]You greeps can't do shit but steal our buildings because your ones are useless.[/QUOTE]
what buildings
we usually have majestic forts with walls blocking the blute onslaught, yet all you have are shitty trenches and tiny boxes to hide in atop of your babyish hills
I tried entering every single server on the list and none of them work.
Y U NO LET ME PLAY?!
Blues camoflage into the distance fog, greens into the terrain.

We are the ones who build the camoflagued fortresses. You assholes STEAL it from us.
Where the hell are you playing?

Our forts DO camouflage because we build them in YOUR territory.
Then you assholes come from your shitty half-trench half-tunnels and capture them. Eventually taking credit for building it.
The only buildings you DO build are uncamouflaged piece of shit 5 stories bright green buildings near your intel which we destroy by easily attacking the foundations.
+1 on the Aces avatars.
Might whip out some avatars, both green and blue, because I really don't give a shit about who I'm supporting.

If only Team Fortress 2 had people fighting over which team is better...
It would suck ass.
Blues ALWAYS build shitty trenches to aim at the green. Fortunately, they suck at it so much that its no danger.

That sounds awesome! Definitely do it up.
Also, the point of color patriotism or whatever you wanna call it is to further build up the war mentality effect that gives you satisfaction at the death of your colors most hated enemy.
