More than 40 people post on the forum.

I'm not arguing that people don't want them, I'm just saying that 40 people is a small number in reality, when you take everything into account.

of course, 40 peeps is a small number for a poll and at the end of the day its technical issues that will decide this thing.

but to be fair given how long the post been up its a decent response.

at the end of the day Game play is still great as is, but lets face it - nobody would say it wouldnt be nice to have a bigger map size.

Agreed, I'm for larger maps...when a few kinks have worked out, and not until then.

I'd just like to reiterate what Twill said in general...

Actually I can't say it better so here:
Twill wrote:Cena, you do know that we agreed to larger maps a long time ago...it's just waiting for a couple of dependencies on the to-do list to be done before it can happen.

Lack listened to you already, he's just not figured out how to clone himself yet. We also havn't set exact new sizes yet (it will depend on the things that are still in the works), but a size increase of some description is in the works.

Consider petitioning the various world gov'ts to allow human cloning instead of trying to get lack to say yes to something he already said yes to ;)

Have a good one
Twill

That said, I'm not giving up on trying to get you guys a slight increase that doesn't push the boundaries we already have in the meantime, (World 2.1).

If we get it though it isn't something we're just going to pass around like fruit cakes, you'd need to prove to moderation your map needs to be that big to be fun and achieve it's theme to the greatest potential.

Everybody take a look at this map:

WWII Europe Road to Berlin

It's amazing, but it is to big and may not be made :(
