Doesn't fit the artstyle + new map

spare gazelle
#

Well it does fit the artstyle generally, in my opinion, but it is a new map and we tend to avoid adding maps that are too modern

#

No, it's live tf2 that added pelican peak after we added it

#

quite a different and silly scenario

jolly sand
#

:(

#

The same happened with landfall as well, funnily enough, originally it was exclusive to us and then it got added in live sometime after it got into TF2C

#

They looove our exclusive ctf maps!

#

i would argue that those two now being officialized in live makes room for newer maps of fitting stylization?

#

maybe?

plucky light
#

that's actually not a bad point

#

ur prolly coping though

jolly sand
#

it'll prolly be ported to the workshop when the mod gets that integrated

#

but man it'd be cool to see it in in official map rotations

Applejack was originally going to be a TF2C Exclusive but got added to Live before the update was ready.

Will applejack ever be added to TF2C? It’s a pretty phenomenal map

I’ve heard there’s a lot of drama surrounding the decision so I don’t have interest in prying, but a bad decision nonetheless

#

Drama?

#

iirc the only reason i heard for applejack not being added was simply because live tf2 added it first

real escarp
#

Yeah, I don't think its much more complicated than not wanting to look like they're copying Live or anything

gentle gale
#

i do think that reasoning's kinda silly but ehh, it's another ctf map

#

i would personally love applejack to come to tf2c only because i loved how it played in live but thats probably not realistic

#

There's more than one reason Applejack wasn't added, but we do try to add maps not in Live for similar reasons that we don't add Live weapons. We think there's a lot of good ideas out there and that it's generally more interesting to do our own thing

Yeah

#

If there are new people from live its nice to offer them a new experience

If we were to get one live map I hope it would be this one.

#

It feels polished like Hydro but is actually fun to play to most people.

#

(I love Hydro but I will admit it isn’t popular.)

gentle gale
#

unpopular you say

glossy arch
#

yea

woeful wagon
#

Egypts only map youve listed that could be close to being unpopular

#

Rest are classic tf2 maps for the most part
