Still can't play Bestine... ONLY map in the whole rotation that gives me that dreaded "modified content" error when logging on... Tried ALL the tips in the forum with no avail...

All the other maps load/play fine...

There is still a jet pack on Bestine, I had help, but found it.

The player community proved themselves to not be mature enough for it. Bestine 64 matches turned into 'camp the jet pack' picnics around the 'secret' jet pack spawns. I never got to play B64 after people figured out where the kid was, but according to reports there would be next to no fighting at all since the entire Imp team would be sitting their waiting for their turn to fly the jet pack. Rebs would blitz the unguarded Imp CP's (most of them) or join in on the jet pack camping. It was an absolute disaster that had players and devs frustrated and TY2D2, who made the map... slightly more than frustrated .

Devs still have the power to spawn jet pack kits on themselves whenever they feel like it, though, so you may see them handing them out even though this will happen only very rarely.

No longer present in the current version of the mod. The easter egg turned into a novelty egg turned into a joke that got old fast.

As much as I like the larger versions, I have to agree.

And 64 fit really good with 32 players. Way more space. Way more fun.

Suggestion: Oh, and perhaps I could recomend POSTING a listing of ALL the maps available in the 1.4 release with screen shots and maybe I wouldn't need to take a stab at making up the names of the maps you made up names for...

Here you go. Still a WIP, but we're working on it.
