I still say 4 point non-linear push map like cp_desertfortress and cp_grinder. Nobody seems to pick up that unique mode and it has so much potential.

Everyone says this game mode will never work. It does work and i have scene it and had alot of fun on maps like these. It like gravel pit type maps with 2 points open at the same team except for both teams. The maps just have to be made right.
I would like you to try either a 4 point map or a quality 5cp linear map.

About singlestage A/D 4-CP's: RED never get time to get a defense up and will be steamrolled, if they DO get defense up it will be stalemate, so no.
I absolutely think you should make a good non-ripoff 5-CP map. Steel is interesting but you will have a hard time making it popular. If you don't do 5-CP, I'd say A/D multistage, and do something else than the chokepointy dustbowl style. I like the idea of a multistaged gravelpit.

You misunderstood, we were talking about 2 points open in middle and blu and red can both cap them, when one team caps both middle points their final point locks and the enemies unlocks.
But unless done very well with setup times in between or something a/d 4cp would definitely not work.
Yah the game type of steal is great expecially with the changing as points are capped.

hmmmmmmm?
The map you're talking about, Sausage, would be interesting but incredibly hard to balance. In a linear 5 cp you could work much more on each area.
EDIT: Why not [ame="http://forums.tf2maps.net/showthread.php?t=8429"]THIS[/ame] gamemode?

^Will you make multiple caps available at any time (more than 2, that is)? Because the biggest problem I've found with Steel is that there is a stalemate on one cap (especially A) while the midcap is impossible to cap unless you're a really skilled team of 3+ scouts.
Current plan is steel-type map of this layout:
Working title, rather cunningly: cp_iron
oh, the arrows with letters denote that path is only open once blue cap the points written next to it.
So... cp_steel?
Make a nice open 5CP.

I'm assuming also, no mid-round spawn room change for Red, right? That's a pretty significant difference right there
That's one of the biggest gripes I hear about Steel
I'd be careful with that layout. It seems like a simpler version of cp_steel. And since the complications in steel help it work better... you might just end up with a worse cp_steel.
Figure I might as well say this now rather than after the first alpha is out.
