I recently discovered TD, and I like it a lot. I've been playing on the TF2 server a ton lately.

However, there's one major issue I have with the server: ctf_turbine.

The map is just really bad, and for one objective reason: if both teams are remotely good, it takes FOREVER for somebody to get a point. Matches in ctf_turbine always move incredibly slowly.

All I want is for you guys to lower the time limit. Right now, I think it's at 40 minutes or something. I think that it should be lowered to 20.

I'm not really sure how ctf games work, (I usually don't stick around for the whole thing) but I'm guessing that the next map is played after a certain amount of victories. If that's the case, I also think that it would be a good idea to lower the score limit to two, or possibly even one point. There are other better, more balanced maps to be played.

    The map is a wtf map to me.

    When one team is actually scoring people start leaving the server....

    Then when engineer's setup their sentrys and the map becomes a stalemate the server becomes full to the brim.....

    I don't even bother getting the flag sometimes because its useless and I just treat the map as a deathmatch, I like the map better than 2fort but its just a "meh" map to me, I'm going to think about changing the timelimit to 30 instead of 20 and also for some reason ALOT of people like that map, and I don't know why....

    I personally love the map. Currently it's set to 50 minutes, I'm thinking that's a little over-board,
    10-20 minutes is usually when people start enjoying themselves, but it drags on a little.

    Luko is right, the map is good for a short time like 30 or 20 min, but it gets really boring after it drags on.

    I think turbine is pretty good, but then again I never get stuck playing defensive engy.  That's gotta be boring, especially for the length of time spent on turbine.

    Orange is a pretty popular map, so turning down the time limit might not be as good for the server as a whole.
    I do understand how annoying 4+ snipers per team can be, though.

    Yea all the nobs were like man I have to actually aim a weapon now... this is gay im leaving this server.... blah blah what else is new people always complain about something

    I'll think about changing Orange timer though as much as that map is dull to me its starting to grow on me because pyros are useless besides the tower and spy's can nail snipers easily.

    Also the map is always a stalemate which for some reason people love...

    I'd rather play the shittiest custom map (Orange X) before any of the stock maps.  

    Not sure where Turbine falls in that... it was a custom map, and now is a stock.

    Orange is good..... I love orange... Except when people say I hack. And When I kick a hacker they say: Wth! Why did you kicked a good player you hacker!




    But being spy on orange is soooo good. 2-3 pyro running after you when you backstab 4-5 sniper before killing one pyro then jumping of the tower, and repeating.

    Valve needs to add more maps, they should have a system where people can upload their custom maps and if they get approved users can have the options if they would like to update with custom maps automatically just like a game update.  Therefore people can predownload the maps from steam and then can join any server that has them without having to wait for the download then.

    Which then we can fucking play new maps hopefully and less bitching will occur which I'm being getting to get very numb of

    Dom speaks trooth. Also i saw on the server downloads page that we have like a million extra maps, and i hardly see any of them. Im sure they would make a welcome change to dustbowl, goldrush, turbine, orange_x and badwater, because those are the only maps I really ever see when on TD lol.

    We've been testing two new maps on Tuesday, I want to add them in the future and for now thought Frontier is still being the ginnie pig to so how people react to custom maps.
