Selection Process
Currently, the map selection process goes through varying stages. Usually, polls on PlanetFortress, and
the forums are taken at random to get feedback on what maps
people are really getting into. Map review sites (and the reviewers themselves), the knowledge
of veteran TF players and mappers are consulted for futher feedback.
As that progresses, the list is narrowed down little by little until it is a manageable size. The reasons
varry, but the aim is to have the best of the best when we are finished. Then, the testing begins to find
any bugs and see if the authors can fix them. If there is a bug that cannot be fixed, the map is removed
from the listing (it can be added in the future if the bug is fixed). The list is then reevaluated and the
best of the best are selected to be included in the Survival Pack (while keeping the pack a manageable size).
Feedback from the public is always taken into account. Finally, the maps are given the go ahead (and authors
permission is obtained) and we have a new addition to the Survival Pack Series. Simple.
Do you think a certain map didn't get in that should have? A new Survival Pack will arrive every two months
or so depending on what's out there. Future packs will depend on the maps themselves, but we are making plans
for a "gimmick" map pack of maps with crazy goals (TFCBorder, Pull, Basketball, Bowling, etc).
