No play for practice on these maps?

Glad to see a couple 64 player maps in the works though.

We will have another full day devoted just to practice, so I tried to go for other maps that need testing. Olesko is at the beginning an end to try to get pubbies on.

At the moment:

149 servers playing new POE
11 servers on O. Keep
2 O. Keep servers populated
Both with one player each

Bottom line:

No one is playing that map

Well I'm looking a little later and at the moment there are 172 servers playing POE2 and only 6 of them populated.

Bottom line:

It's late at night

Olesko Keep is highly playable at low numbers and often more enjoyable then than with a full server. I'm having trouble thinking of another POE2 map that would be fun at, say, 10v10 as the server is filling/emptying at the beginning/end of the day, though if you have suggestions we can certainly try them out. We have put several POE2 maps on the GC server and the only one that's ever dragged pubbies on in any numbers is Olesko.

for the record: we had over 20 people get onto our NA server during the NABO last Tuesday, and a good portion of them joined while we were playing Olesko Keep.

Honestly, I think it's got more to do with server population and less to do with map size. I believe that If we have our EU/NA server up on any map, we'll get people joining if we've got a good number of our guys on there already

There just isn't a good enough selection of populated servers running POE2

Olesko 64 rocks + Berezan island has to be 64 so that you can have 2 tomahawks. People love them!

I agree unfortunately. the poe air maps are always the ones that get filled up the fastest.

but still, a day without the castle is no day at all, right cheesy?

Just for the record.. my forces overran Brummie's because I got there before he did. Yes.. that's it. *innocent whistle of victory*
