    So if you have played war for a while you will most likely notice that sometimes the map selector picks test_strip. Now test_strip is in my opinion the worst map in War for the following reasons.

    1. Its block variation is ****, like it I think it has 6 at most different kinds of block.

    2. It lacks detail, like, really lacks detail.

    3. It was some of the worst gameplay (other than appaloosa_inf) because of its lack of walls and very bad layout of cover.

    4. It is one of the easiest maps to spawnkill on, especially in infect.

    Over all this map is a piece of **** that makes me cri to play on... It is a waste of space. And the worst part about it is that other EXTREMELY good maps get denied. (AKA Loaded...) and this **** gets added... I think the staff were high when this map was added...

    C'mon, it's unique. Besides, natural selection only happens when few players are in a lobby.

    I couldn't disagree more.
    It's a fun and unique map to play and is almost paintball-like.
    As for infect, sure remove infect, but the other gamemodes are 100% fine aside from hard flags to capture, but hey, look at dhahran.
    You don't see people complaining about that one.

    I love this map. It's terrible for infect but for tdm it's amazing. In my opinion we should just get rid of the infect on it and keep the tdm.

    Tdm/ctf = yes

    I believe teststrip is a good map, it's not a lack of covers, it may not be so much details but it's still a map that makes it possible to nuke/emp. Anyways I think the map should be removed from Infect since it is very hard to pass the center without being killed as a infected.

    Please @HereCreepers don't swear in your thread, such as **** and omfg. Thank you.

    I don't know, it's a classic. Just like 2fort, Appaloosa and many other classic maps, they are a part of war now and will never be removed.

    I agree that this a part of war now and shouldn't be removed.

    Not all maps should be easy, the difficult maps should make you play better. (my 2 cents)

    If that's your reason for wanting it removed, then I can't even...

    Thats the main reason but also I feel that the gameplay is bad. It is literally the easiest map to spawn camp in (other than maybe like all infect maps and Scrap yard). Also I have yet to see a game in infect where the infected win...

    To start, the way you just showed your "rant" which seems like a a tantrum from my little cousin to me makes it very hard for me personally to take you seriously and the spelling/grammar is plain awful. If you're trying to look more cool by doing this, you look like a majority of the uberminecraft dweebs from 2012. Grow up. To hose who think I'm too harsh, I'll tone it down next time for ya.

    Teststrip is as it says, it's a practice map. Naturally it's supposed to look the way.

    1. I don't see why that would matter. I've seen maps where it's just a bunch of random blocks on other servers which honestly are really fun to play on. Though I only play on brawl now.

    2. Are you OCD or something? Sometimes the simplest things are the ones that are either cherished or the most memorable. You can't have a factory without a gear (metaphor).

    3. That's the challenge. If mc-war was too fair or too even for everyone, it would get boring quickly and brawl would be losing some money since War is a huge cash crop here. You can just do /war leave if you want to sit out of that round or find another game. I don't see the point of you bringing this to our attention in such a low class way.

    4. That's the challenge. Cry about spawnkills man, it's frustrating. Then you need to learn a method to get past it like luring players or how to dodge artillery fire. My tip is just use /war buy grenade to use to distract them or get an infected. A lot ofmpeople here have suicides in order to get kill streaks as a zed anyways. If you can't take the heat man, hop out and keep the tears off the keyboard.

    Dude, if you don't like the map just do /war leave and when it ends do /war join. Honestly you and I both could've saved a good amount of time to our lives which we both will never get back writing about this. If anything, teststrip is rare and I actually enjoy playing infect on it and the other game does it provides (though CTF is a silly idea for it) since I for one, have a tendency to get past 30 on infect there and it's definitely a map I've made a lot of memories on and I'm sure others may agree. Yet you've presented yourself in just an awfully immature way. As for the staff being high, just hearing that I know for a fact you have no idea what it's like being high If it was pot, they'd be too busy paying attention to their chairs or if it was a hit of acid, theyd be afraid of their computer melting and the fact their floor dissapeared and the fact they're flying to even run minecraft.

    I say things are fine the way they are.

    Proba shouldn't quote this from the past but preach.
