I’d definitely remove it from 4v4 slayer until it can be tweaked more: it always feels like launch site spawn has an uphill battle to come out of the first couple of minutes any better than 2-6 down
launch site rules!!! my favorite map!11
just try and take our base!!
and then
all your base are belong to us!!
repeat
But that’s the whole issue… It works great for asynchronous gametypes but it goes against a balanced design philosophy.
I actually quite like it for FFA though
Yeah, spawning on the side with the flag when NOT playing in the flag game is awful. You feel like you move so slowly from that side…
Launch Site is one of the best maps for fiesta.
Unless they put a grappling hook on one side so you could spiderman across the gap. I do that all the time in fiesta.
I have literally no idea why there isn’t just a man cannon going from top base to bottom base in modes that aren’t 1 flag.
It would fix the maps biggest issue which is just that you’re often spawned too far away to support your team for almost 30-45 seconds a lot of the time.
Edit: Accidentally listed the wrong mode ![]()
That’s actually not a bad idea… Move the grapple spawn to launch site side. That would be a positive change I think and would give another avenue defenders could use to catch a carrier once past the trench
It is for me the ultimate combo of stupidity. I just had my last game on. We won, by far, but that was a real pain. I mean I’m always angry after playing this horrible map.
There was Scorpions and Wraiths, spawning every seconds. So people just try to corner you with hammer or rocket after you walked 30 seconds to rejoin the fight.
I don’t understand, this map is no fun at all, it’s stupidity.
I believe some people call it “fun” but it’s not. It’s punishing you from trying to play normally and rewarding you for acting like an *ss.
Yes, Yes, and Yes. It’s a terrible experience, I just don’t see the point in the map on really any game mode. If anything maybe the new game mode coming might make it more useful but even then it feels too large. It’s an awkward map that is too small for BTB and too large for 4v4.
I leave the game when this map comes on.
