Rotation or fixed?

[Sleivert]

Now that it's 28 servers for both US and EU i was thinking, maybe you could stop the rotation with maps? I like the 1st map best and the city one not so much and wouldn't it be nice to have 14 servers for 1st map and 14 for second map? Then people can play the one they like

Btw, already posted this on the survival games forum, but was told to post it here

I think it should be keeped the way it is.
There are comming more maps after we're out of BETA.

I think there should be 75% of servers on rotation (soon to be voting) and then 12.5% dedicated to each of the 2 maps in right now. Once more maps comes out, split the remaining 25% between all those maps. Right now there are 2 maps so 12.5% for each

 

[Stijn]

what are you wanting to do with 0.5% of a server?

Not of a server, of the total amount of servers. Just round it down to whatever it is

I know
Still think it is a bad idea, the maps should just be randomized

There will always be some people that want to play a specific map, and some servers at least should be dedicated to a certain map.

I agree that there should be some dedicated servers.
The 24-player servers should host the Forest map, because it is smaller and contains less high-tier items (Iron Armor, Diamonds).
The 48-player servers should host the City map, because it is larger to befit such a number of players, and contains the higher-tier items (Iron Armor, Diamonds).
If there will ever be a server that hosts 72 or more players, I believe the map should be bigger still than the City map, and feature Diamond Armor in chests, as well as pre-enchanted weaponry.

Also, the amount of time allotted to each server should befit the number of players; Small maps should take 45-60 minutes, Medium maps should take 60-90 minutes, and the largest maps should take 90-120+ minutes.

There are only 4 48 player servers. I think most of the servers should be rotation, then 1 48 player server for each map only (when the 1st map is available for 48T) and about 2 servers for each map in the 24 player servers. The rest are rotation/voting.
