@shamousey remember the update that made everything bouncy grounds?
What caused that and is this placed on no shaman maps?

from now on i shall be playing bootcamp as such
i see it as my own way of paying homage to the amazing and absolutely non-disappointing updates this game continues to release
anyone who wishes to experience a unique style of playing with completely new controls altogether (its like playing with legacy southpaw and look inversion enabled at the same time.... all the while being blindfolded! now if that isn't enough diversity for you, i don't know what is), all you have to do is press CTRL+ALT+arrow down!

@Bakpaofgunz omg thank you so much! I can make the game twice as diverse now and enjoy playing it for much longer! :D

I play bootcamp mainly because I got tired of first being based on ping and luck, I felt I couldn't show my skills there. And in bootcamp as Prr said, it's you vs the map, I don't really care about the times. My main goals in bootcamp are beating all maps (thanks to CFM I can keep track of that), and get at least in the Top 150 on CFM leaderboard. I'd like if normal rooms, or even racing, were actually skill based and not about memory, luck or ping, then it'd be interesting to play those game modes.

I disagree regarding "normal rooms, or even racing" not being skill based and just about memory, luck and ping. While ping plays a factor to your spawn time and hole time, if you have a skill that's above average, you should be able to be faster/better than the majority of players. Regarding luck, there is no one minigame where luck isn't involved, depending on what you view "luck" as.

Oh yeah, a simple example regarding skill vs ping would be; Say you're fighting against some person in #fight, you're lagging really badly, but since you've had fight experience and skill you can easily dodge cannons and kill the other person effortlessly with your aim. Same thing applies. But if they're better than you, then they're better than you (don't know if there's any other way to say that)

Since I haven't seen anyone ask this question so far I will ask it myself: what about the new players? When I first started playing bootcamp, one of the most effective ways in which I accustomed myself with the mode as well as the sets of skills required to play successfully was familiarizing myself with the map rotation. This particularly helped because the vast majority of the maps were far too difficult for me to complete and I can imagine much of the same of many new players who play bootcamp regularly. For someone who is familiar with neither the bootcamp rotation or the reverted map feature this would be confusing at best and a cheap, senseless trick at worst, but in either case it still adds nothing substantial enough to be worth it.

Imagine playing a game of mario while all the levels would have a 50% chance to play reversed. HOW COOL WOULD THAT BE?

There's a good reason games don't do that.

Imagine any of I Wanna Be The Guy fangames where levels would have a 50% chance to play reversed... I think we can compare IWBTG games with Bootcamp and Racing rooms.
Why just admins didn't make individual rooms for mirrored game mode? For example, /room mracing or /room mbootcamp.
A feeling that they never think about consequences. Just make updates and don't care about player's opinion. How many BAD updates they cancelled?..

I like this new update, it really takes you out of that automatic mode when playing the same maps over and over again. I also don't quite understand all this complaining. Other than the frequency of mirrored maps, how is this update any different from adding new maps to the rotation?

Because they're the exact same maps?
Or would you expect people not to notice if, say, half of the bootcamp rotation was deleted and replaced with mirrored equivalents of the other half?

I cant believe how admins treat players like retard pieces of shit. They make these bad updates (basically every update past year) and when people try to tell what's wrong with them, they wont even join the conversation. Just silently shoving carbage down everyones throat. Even fanboys will eventually figure out you are just trying to rip off as much money of them you can and then it will be end of this company. I wouldn't be surprised if it happens before start of 2016.

Honestly these reversed maps are a pain. I don't understand why this update was implemented.

Frustrating, but provides more challenge.
Lets face it, there are some maps you have memorized (especially the uteruskick map), reversing it has given a new perspective.

But it's still frustrating.
