You see, v2d is a classic map and it is great and all.. but there are soooo many maps to choose from and especially evocity. Most people don't want to wait for Evocity 3 since nobody knows when it will be released but I would love to either get
- A custom map made for Limelight.
- A remake of Evocity (e.g, Chaos City, v33x_edit)
- Rockford_Open
Either of these three would be great. Since v2d is just old and doesn't look the most pleasing to the eye since it is dull colours.
Also I made a map review of Chaos City here:
Not the best but shows you what is on the map compared to others.
Headattack City is nice, but I'm not sure it has everything that would fit the needs of the careers the server offers (e.g., President, police, Mafia)
Chaos City doesn't offer a sky box on the off chance WAC ever gets introduced. Because of the tunnels, you would only be able to fly in the area the chopper gets spawned in. This might also be the same for the other evocity maps, since they all offer tunnels. For something like that, you would need a suburban/open map with no obstructions. Something like one of the STALKER maps (RP_salvation_2_stalker_snow) or an Ineu map. But both of those options aren't very good for cityRP, unless it's an apocalypse cityRP. Headattack City would work for this, however.
Retribution is huge, and might be too big. It's a lot bigger than Chaos City. I like it though, and there are a ton of business/job opportunities for regular civilians. There's also an updated version.
Freedom City has 1 enterable building that I found.
Paralake could work, possibly. It's large, has a police station, hospital and fire station. Tons of businesses, a suburban area, a marshland area with trailers. Just not sure where Mafia would go, other than there are 3 cabins in the woods. Only thing with this map is there's content that you would need to download along with the server content.

v2d was good map and brings back memories but it just isn't a step forward.
If we have a v2d server then we can't have Atmos and we also can't have any big vehicles due to the size of it.
I vote in favour of a custom map.
I'm seriously not a fan of how close the Nexus is to the slums, as the slums seem to draw a lot of criminal activity and it just seems too close for comfort. The Nexus in general looks pretty shitty too and I would say that there needs to be major improvement on v2d before I see L2 using it.
But hey, that's just my opinion.
V2D Nexus: Elevator that works properly. Garage with 2 floors, and then the labs.
V33x Nexus: Major problem on v33x Lag. Garage is barely not used. 10 minutes Elevator to the highest floor. Etc...
Slums near Nexus? Criminal Activity? Well, theres a rule called NLR.
I would hate for this to happen. I wouldn't mind if another map that was newer, and still good FPS but V2D is old as shit, it's bland and boring and ew.

Well even if WAC was added which would not be for a very long time due to it not being needed and the amount of minges that would join unless there was licenses added with a high price then Wac could but as I said maybe not even for a year or so. Also Chaoscity is pretty decent for what it is. There are some Evocity maps that would work although mostly edits. Also Limelight wouldn't really go for a ZombieRP type style server as that is just not Limelight. Limelight is more about realism and bring content to CityRP for now.
Paralake is just god awful. The roads look like aids and there is a apartment you can enter as a house also with suburbs. A custom map would be much better.

I only brought up STALKER/apoc in reference to someone wanting WAC, since those are the only types of maps WAC could be used on. I do think choppers could add RP (police, news reports), it would also need to be heavily regulated to make sure minges don't get hold of it to abuse it. But, that's a discussion for another topic, and I only brought it up in answer to a previous comment.
But yeah. I wouldn't mind using Chaos city, or one of the vp versions of evocity (v2p, or the new version v5p).

Criminal activity right behind/next to the Nexus doesn't help with Government PassiveRP, such as DispatchRP or similar.

As much as I would love having WAC due to me being experienced with it. Heavily regulating for staff would be a pain. I mean as soon as you lag you are pretty much screwed depending on how long you lag for but yea.
OT: Any edit of evocity are normally good.
Never mind all this shit....V2P or riots...

Paralake is poor on frame rate and is just dull imo
After reading all these point, i have to agree
We are a new Community, we how many servers use V2D? Why don't we get out there and express something different?
