Why so few maps?

I don't get why people are concentrating around 2 or 3 new maps instead of spreading out their playing a bit. I don't even really see any combined arms maps. Explain?

Make your own map and see how long it takes. Then you'll have your answer.

I like the new maps, the craze of the new maps will pass soon, but it has only been 3 days(2 for some) so just let the craze die down, and you can have your Kashan.

Yeah, a large CoD4 training map, shooting range assault course, VERY COOL (not blowing my own horn ^^) ive been working on it since CoD4 released the new Xmodels and still havent finished it, The DEVs musst be working hard to make these maps, although i dont know how the BF2 map maker works so IDK that much realy.

Glad I could have been of service. But really guys, chill this happens every release, everyone goes crazy for the new maps and then after a couple of weeks or less it dies down and it goes into normal rotation.

Yeah he seems to be wondering why people only want to play a few maps and not the others. A question which is impossible to answer.

No, i can answer it; new maps = people want to play new maps.

if pr realeased 10 new maps in .9, would you want to sit there and play bi ming all day?

I gotta say, it's one of the main reasons why people are constantly yammering for new maps:


Old release: Everyone knows all the old maps.
New release comes out: Everyone knows all the old maps, no-one knows the new maps.
New release is played: the servers run the new maps constantly for a few weeks
Very quickly: New release but everyone knows all the old maps AND the new maps.



Far better would be if server admins didn't alter their existing map rotation much and just added the new maps in, equi-distant from each other with existing maps in between.

People would get to play the new maps less, and it would take them longer to tire of the new maps.

I assume the mod being out rotation focuses on the new maps which is fine with me. They look great by the way.

I think everyone must stop disturb and play.

They make a good job with 0.8.
So don't request any more.



LET'S PLAY!

Reading his post before you respond might be a good idea.

EXACTLY.


Please guys, it's quite clear. The hint is in the "...instead of spreading their playing a bit"
