Custom maps overkill

Dick_Justice · 06-24-2003, 10:23 AM

When I check my website for new BF news, every week, theres an overkill of new BF custom maps. At least 10 new maps every week. I mean who is supposed to play them all. You hardly find servers who host them anyway and half of the maps are crap.
But still there are a lot of good ones aswell. Its hard to filter out the good ones from the bad ones, and most maps will probably never get played. Is there a site that filters out the good maps from the bad one (must be over 100 out there already), maybe by rating ? I would be a shame to ignore all the good custom maps (I´ve never played a proper custom map game).
I guess that the other side of Battlecraft.

I only download maps if I see them on more than one server. Saves a lot of HDD space.

Yeha some maps can be over 50 megs! a good way to teel if its a good map is file size. BC maps are small because they use stanred textures and vecihles. Where larger file maps have loads of cutsom stuff lioke buildings, skins, and alas even vechiles and music!
