Ok, reclaim amounts are balanced now. Also corrected sun direction, and lessened brightness.

The map still has tons of reclaim.

The hitspheres on some of the rocks are ridiculously large and lead to hax and unintuitive blocking. It should be remade with these fixed.

It should not be remade because the only type of game it brings is... porc fest and artilery race... why would you remake a map that focuses on trench warfare?

maybe the public demand to have games with fortified structures outweight your humble opinion (although it is considered bad gameplay)?

Then mayby they should play Tower Defense game instead? Not strategy game? :F

This is not a very good map for 1v1. It always becomes a porc fest, and then missile silo rush. There is no way to contest mexes, each player just gets their half of the map. Should be removed from map rotation for steam release.

Remove Defender, problem solved! Also this is why the map needs to stay!

This map almost never resolves in defender spam. You would have known that if you would actually play the game from time to time Skasi. You have played exactly 6 games on this map (according to replay tab). Last one was 4v4 9 months ago.

As if I needed to play a map to see what other people are doing on it. Orf pls. Do you even spec bro?

edit: I even just checked some new replays just to make sure I wasn't drunk. Found three replays that didn't look completely one-sided from the player matchups. All three of them had Defender spam:
Multiplayer B349300 6 on Lowland Crossing Revised v2
Multiplayer B349256 5 on Lowland Crossing Revised v2
Multiplayer B347933 7 on Lowland Crossing Revised v2
+0 / -0
However, none of those replays were 1v1, which is what was being discussed. I don't remember http://zero-k.info/Battles/Detail/349256 being defined by defender spam, either; wasn't that just 4hundred running the other team over with double-com? Just because a bunch of Defenders get built doesn't mean necessarily that they characterised the sum direction of the game.

This isn't an excellent map for 1v1 and probably doesn't rate inclusion in a list of "featured" maps but it's certainly good enough to be "supported", whenever that distinction is implemented. Most of the 1v1s I remember on this map were a bit curbstompy but mostly by virtue of the player matchups.

Defender or no defender, it is trivial for a conscious life form of any sort to defend histheir half of the map. There is no fighting over mexes, no raiding. There is only unit counters. This removes a part of zerok, that is the expansion/raiding game. Even if there was no static defence, you can just use radar and spread your units in a line.

USrankFealthas - that has not been my universal experience of this map in 1v1 (I think you can be aggressive early, depending on factory matchup) but I agree that this map tends that way more than most.

Implemented perhaps a poor choice of words. There's still a lot of pretty meh maps featured and I don't know of a way to !map for only featured maps or alternatively for featured + supported maps.

removed 1vs1 tag

Does it make less sense in 1v1 than in 2v2? 0_o It's a rush and reclaim grab in both cases.

Downgrade to supported instead? It's not super pretty or super fun at any team size, i think.
