A Plea to the Developers
#1
I've noticed that fewer and fewer people are playing Assaultcube. I remember years ago there was at least two pages of active/full servers - and now there are only about 10-15 active.
I've asked about 200 people, who do not play now, the reasons why they stopped playing, and what it would take to get them playing again. Here are my results:
34 of the 200 said "less hackers"
79 of the 200 (the 34 discluded) said "less trolls/a-holes"
87 (the rest of them) said "Less stupid map requirements/no map reqs"
I know there's a lot of resistance on the dev's part to keep the map reqs, but a lot of older maps just don't work with 1.2 anymore. Altair has fixed a lot, Headshot City Reborn, Megatowers Rewind, Camper-Camper, and a few others. I can't make certain maps good because of the height and area restrictions. I can't make my own port of CoD4 maps (Killhouse, Broadcast, etc) because of size limits. Heck, we don't even have doors. The maps have to be glitched.

Here is a list of everybody in my contacts list in my GMail that I sent mail to. A few of them I never got a reply, so I've picked 200 randomly for my survey.
