Would be cool for a different map, but I love fighting in the large valley under that bridge.

Making it smaller would be a good start. The map is too big for 16v16. In fact, most of the new maps are too big for the player count atm. It's a ghost town.

Completely disagree. You don't need to have every part of a map populated every single moment. That's part of why I hate the old maps, they are so small and everything is forced into combat. Here with these large maps we have enough room to actually perform battle tactics instead of a giant tug-of-war.

What tactics? Kill 3-4 people a match and feel good that it lasted 20-30 minutes? That's boring. The tug of war is what makes games exciting, not driving an LAV to every objective, hack, kill 1-2 guys, jump in your LAV and do the same.

My idea of excitement is to hold a point. To stop a zerg. These maps are nice, but man they're boring. You would think because of the size it's hard to redline... nope. Redlining on these big maps are possible.

River of acid flowing through the map making the bridge actually necessary. Lets get a map with several bridges, and several rivers of lava. Make it a Skirmish and watch the awesomeness of tactics, choke points, and dropships unleashed

Or have struts and obstacles in place that make it at the very least difficult to get on. Keep the random pipe. People do crazy stupid things on there, and it's hilarious.

The subsections of it had to make sense in that context. It's for future scaling and works well enough now I think. Would be more work to make 'smaller' maps. Because then they'd have to scrap it all and do it again later, but bigger

Maybe if we had 32 vs 32 they would be ok...but this is not the case.

And having time to look around is needed, plus it feels much better. It wouldnt be that fun if youre in combat without any break. Wouldnt be real. And no not all maps are too big. In real life there are no red zones where you couldnt go..
