Map Suggestion V5 WEEKEND

dev time

please, can we just go back to v5 until v7 ty

Personally I like the older Paralake versions much more, current one feels too futuristic and big. Can't find people these days...

I really hope the staff team don't choose to do this when it's clearly people just having nostalgia. People will rarely be happy with the new map, despite it being amazing. People would be begging to return to V6 on these weekends

V5 had huge issues; its walkability was horrible. V6 flows much more nicely together

V6 is great but its empty and feels dead. V5 was cramped so you HAD to interact with people and was good for that reason. V5 has issues but it absolutely is not this trash map people call it. We need a hybrid of the two I feel.

Everyone is saying that it's only nostalgia, but it's not all about it!
V5 had something to it that V6 doesn't.
The layout the map had, buildings, bazaar, projex, even the forest (while shitty) and the vibe itself is not something you see in V6. The city felt like a lived in place.

Back in 2023 when it was PERPHeads' 10 year anniversary, we got our first teasers of V6.
A lot of people, including me were expecting only some new buildings, a door removed or two, maybe a roundabout but that's about it, not a whole map change.

After the launch hype of v6 ended, the map felt and still feels weird (maybe only for me), like it was not made for PERPHeads. It took away a lot of the charm that v5 had.
Walking in Bazaar at full pop is like walking in a mall near closing time, yeah there are full shops with decorations, but players...not that many.


V6 as a map looks amazing, the detail it has is nothing I've ever seen in a Garry's Mod map. But it feels really strange and weird to play on, way too modern, like a city that no human being has ever touched.

" the vibe itself is not something you see in V6." nostalgia
" charm that v5 had" nostalgia
"But it feels really strange and weird to play on," nostalgia

For me V6 feels like all these things becuase its where i have spent most my time i much prefer it to V5

Like I said above, while there is some nostalgia it's not all about it

Because it's a feeling that you can't back up with anything, so it's most likely nostalgia. Not to throw any rocks

the map isn't as much of an open nightmare to what v6 is, an example is the harbour/industrial area and also bazaar is just 100x better

- Highway pull off zones for breakdowns for speed traps and repairs or shelter during arrests,
- City hall having the upper foyer you could shoot from during raids to prevent access,
- Bazzar shops were TINY and more active you could get increased roleplay and interaction there with enough room to make gorgeous multi level shops and they felt like little kiosks,
- The drug dealer spot near hungriges was a better spot in my opinion thematically wise and keeping one on their toes,
- The storage being near the park is HUGE vs city. The city is a rdm hotspot with people dieing at spawn on v6 and being involved in storage shootouts and bank with 0 reprise as its next door. Suburbs storage kept things separate from the city to avoid issues.
- Leaches in the forest lake were not an issue and caused firefighters to have more job.
- Stonehenge was a great hiding spot and is now no longer present making it harder to hide.
- Speaking of hiding the dense forest trees being gone makes it near impossible to hide.
- The city park was nice for events out of the way of the city on v5 vs v6. The ufo event during halloween lended itself there and players made mega constructs alot.
- The v5 crane was pretty. We have no industrial dock. v6's dock area is kinda... bland."


Not just nostalgia.

The only thing I would see people complain about is not having enough properties and how the bank raid plays.

I really hope this suggestion will see the light of day and not just denied without any reason or for "not looking to do this right now", who knows maybe we'll go on v5 for longer than 2 days a month(full revert?)
