I have to agree, we definatly need more 3v3 Maps.

Well, I'll take one Scottish Alien over the guys who made Zikurat, or however you spell it, any day.

Not going to lie; the way they did maps was horrible....

Raise your hand if you'd much rather have had simpler-looking maps but easily modded rather than forever be stuck with the current set of pretty maps that require tens of thousands of dollars worth of software to create (but they're pretty!)

i think the massive multiplayer issues knocked the wind out of stardock at launch and set them quite off track with what they had planned. Possibly also fixing this blew whatever budget was available (both in money and time) to do other features.

That said, modding support should open this up some more, unfortunatly unless stardock takes an active approach in managing mods and making some official, which can be played in a multiplayer context and easily, i.e host automatically sends to client mod packages. It may take some time for lots of content to materialise.

The maps are awfully bland, all the work seems to of gone into giving the maps a pretty background, which add nothing to gameplay except graphical lag, all of the maps are flat roads with towers on, that is all there is, nothing more, no interactive scenery, no height changes, none of the terrain can move, none of the terrain can block line of sight, none of the terrain does ANYTHING.

 I do not see why it would be "expensive" to create them, all the maps are is roads with textures on and a very detailed uninteractive 3D background, drop the background and hey presto you only have to make a few textures and draw a shape with towers on, how much are GPG getting paid to design flat featureless maps? Because someone like Scottish Alien should be getting double their salary.

This game only needs one map in my opinion and Cata is that map. It is very dynamic and good balenced.

The game maps are just flat planes. If you guys will do the Lua scripting I will happily make you a ugly map to fight on. Just do it on a 513x513 grid.
