Fortress Pyke is one of my favorite maps of all time.
It's got great places to PvP, nice chest routes, and good gameplay.
The large amount of water isn't the best, and there are a few broken
traps, but other than that there isn't much bad about this. I don't really
see a reason for this to be removed, but it was. This map lost a lot of popularity
and I'm not sure why. It's a great map to play on! The scenery is nice too and the
combination of good gameplay and good looks is hard to find. Nevertheless, it's lack
of popularity led to it's retirement.

Let's hear your opinions!

loved the map sadly it got removed

Things like broken traps are unacceptable, thats something the map committee should exist for and should fix, but it doesnt happen. Map then gets removed for 'being unplayed'. Go figure

 

[Edge]

no

The water is a bit shallow, could use more terraforming around that part, the structures were all nicely built though but default trees ;-;

Fortress Pyke was my favorite map though and should definitely be revamped and brought back onto the servers.

I had an OP route

I thought bayani made it?

 

[UsEssence]

The old maps remind me off the good old days

I think it's the same person. xBayani has 0 forum messages and no map maker rank. Northy0 created the map thread and acts as if he was the lead builder.

Or maybe MCGamer broke it? They broke all the other stuff on the maps

Tbh once I found a route on Fortress Pyke I actually enjoyed it quite a bit. It was far from one of my favourite maps but it would also be very far from my least favourite maps.

I miss this map so much :c

I feel as though inexperienced players are the kind that get maps like these removed. (Not trying to stero-type) but I find newer players complaining about larger maps, as they don't want to spend 20 minutes playing MCSG. Then again more and more people are complaining about longer games.
Now I am just rambling.

TL;DR Removed cause people don't like longer games.
