I have been begging people for weeks to check some maps. No takers. Vipper is the only brave man with the huevos to test a map.
For the 2v2 map contest this map was in, people got relic supply I think if they tested the maps. It was pushed hard to test the maps. But still very few did. Some people started out with great looks on a couple maps then disappeared. It can be a lot of work to do it well. So I am not complaining, I greatly appreciate any work anyone does for the game.
In all honesty I heard about the map contest but I didn’t have friends willing to test maps. My friends and I rarely play and when we do we go 3v3 automatch, not testing maps.
People are like fish, they go where the current is taking them. Make the map testing somehow attractive to people, via some reward for best replay, or twitch streaming or something that’ll make them wanna join. But also make sure to somehow organize matches because most people don’t have the will or friends to set up 2v2 custom games to test maps.
