Re: Map of the Month

I love the map of the month, it's such a great way to revisit maps that haven't been hosted in a while or maybe just didn't get as much visibility before. It's great to be able to show appreciation toward so many great mapmakers. Thanks for doing that!

Happy 30th, fellow tankers! We've had many good years blasting each other's tanks into tiny little pieces. Here's to many more! :P

Hey Cole! I'm sorry to hear about the negative experiences. It's been good fun to play this game with you for so many years and you're a great player and teammate! I hope we'll see you again on BZ sometime in the (hopefully) not too distant future, but if not that's totally understandable. I wish yo...

Re: What a Robot!

That's pretty interesting that one of your bots could be the MVP for the match and perform so well! A lot of times I think people see bots and just assume they aren't really as much of a challenge. But I don't mind a few bots, and I can definitely see how bots could perform better with more human te...

Re: New League Season Idea

What aspects of the Season layout did you enjoy? What aspects of the Season were a turnoff to you? Was it easy for you to find matches? What hindered you from playing? What are your thoughts on how the scoring system turned out? (1x for HIX/Duc, 2x for less popular maps) What were your thoughts on ...

Re: Thoughts on competitive/league play

I want to see the league active again - and I like the idea of an app or something that helps find matches easier than strayers - but being automatically transferred to a match doesn't allow for normal things that come up (a slight work delay, somebody at the door, finishing a phone call, etc.). Som...

Re: Spring 2019 Babel Triples Challenge

A big thank you to macsforme and everybody who organized this, it was a ton of fun - I've missed tournamentish play! I think it went very well and deserves to be applauded. A monthly thing might be kind of cool - what do you guys think?

Hey guys, there were only four players that weren't grouped up on a team yet (I'm looking at you Hogfish, Pesky_UK, R3laX, Runruns!)

Re: Roadmap

I'm curious on the direction of the league as well - maybe we need an overhaul - new maps, new scoring, something to spark more interest in the league? But maybe not, would love to hear thoughts on this!

Thanks ahs3, this is a fantastic map - makes me think of the days of Ziggyworld, Badgerkings, etc. But it's definitely got the defining ahs3 details. I played on it a good 30 minutes to an hour the other day for my first visit - good stuff! Seems pretty balanced, each playing style seems to have goo...

3D Progams - best one?

Heya tankers! I'm thinking about getting back into mapmaking and it would be fun to try something outside of my tried and true go-to of BZEdit this time. I've heard of people using a variety of 3D modeling programs but I think last I knew the best one with the best controls is Blender? Anyone find a...

Re: Kiddy-Korner Map

This map is a ton of fun, thanks for making it and to the host for putting it up for our enjoyment! I really like the recent updates with new textures/adjusting the bridge to a very dark blue. It helps with concealing sneaky tanks crossing and overall it just looks good and plays well.

Re: Breizh Wall

Looks like you were going for the "Classic" BZFlag sort of feel. Are all the blocks weaponized? It looks like based on the screenshot your tank will explode if touching them and I didn't pull up the world file yet.
